ABSTRACT
Breast cancer is a prevalent and severe form of cancer that affects women all over the world. The incidence and mortality of breast cancer continue to rise due to factors such as population growth and the aging of the population. There is a growing area of research focused on a cell death mechanism known as PANoptosis. This mechanism is primarily regulated by the PANoptosome complex and displays important characteristics of cell death, including pyroptosis, apoptosis, and/or necroptosis, without being strictly defined by the cell death pathway. PANoptosis acts as a defensive response to external stimuli and pathogens, contributing to the maintenance of cellular homeostasis and overall stability. Increasing evidence suggests that programmed cell death (PCD) plays an important role in the development of breast cancer, and PANoptosis, as a novel form of PCD, may be a crucial factor in the development of breast cancer, potentially leading to the identification of new therapeutic strategies. Therefore, the concept of PANoptosis not only deepens our understanding of PCD, but also opens up new avenues for treating malignant diseases, including breast cancer. This review aims to provide an overview of the definition of PANoptosis, systematically explore the interplay between PANoptosis and various forms of PCD, and discuss its implications for breast cancer. Additionally, it delves into the current progress and future directions of PANoptosis research in the context of breast cancer, establishing a theoretical foundation for the development of molecular targets within critical signaling pathways related to PANoptosis, as well as multi-target combination therapy approaches, with the goal of inducing PANoptosis as part of breast cancer treatment.
