ACTR/AIB1 functions as an E2F1 coactivator to promote breast cancer cell proliferation and antiestrogen resistance.
Overexpression or amplification of ACTR (also named AIB1, RAC3, p/CIP, TRAM-1, and SRC-3), a member of the p160 family of coactivators for nuclear hormone receptors, has been frequently detected in multiple types of human tumors, including breast cancer. However, its role in cancer cell proliferation and the underlying mechanism are unclear. Here, we show that overexpression of ACTR not only en...
متن کاملHIF2α contributes to antiestrogen resistance via positive bilateral crosstalk with EGFR in breast cancer cells
The majority of breast cancers express estrogen receptor α (ERα), and most patients with ERα-positive breast cancer benefit from antiestrogen therapy. The ERα-modulator tamoxifen and ERα-downregulator fulvestrant are commonly employed antiestrogens. Antiestrogen resistance remains a clinical challenge, with few effective treatments available for patients with antiestrogen-resistant breast cance...
متن کاملBreast cancer cells with acquired antiestrogen resistance are sensitized to cisplatin-induced cell death.
Antiestrogens are currently used for treating breast cancer patients who have estrogen receptor-positive tumors. However, patients with advanced disease will eventually develop resistance to the drugs. Therefore, compounds effective on antiestrogen-resistant tumors will be of great importance for future breast cancer treatment. In this study, we have investigated the effect of the chemotherapeu...
متن کاملSteroid receptor-mediated cytotoxicity of an antiestrogen and an antiprogestin in breast cancer cells.
The antiproliferative and cytotoxic effects of 4-hydroxytamoxifen, an antiestrogen with a high affinity for the estrogen receptor, and of 17 beta-hydroxy-11 beta-(4-methylaminophenyl)-17-(1-propynyl)estra-4,9-dien-3- one-6-7 (RU486), an antiprogestin with a high affinity for the progestin receptor, have been studied on human breast cancer cell lines in culture. The number of dead cells was eval...
متن کاملPrevention of breast cancer growth, invasion, and metastasis by antiestrogen tamoxifen alone or in combination with urokinase inhibitor B-428.
Urokinase (urokinase plasminogen activator, uPA) and its cell surface receptor (uPA receptor, uPAR) play an important role in a variety of physiological and pathological processes requiring cell migration and tissue remodeling. Using our syngeneic model of uPAR overexpression by the rat breast cancer cell line Mat B-III, we have examined the ability of the nonsteroidal antiestrogen, tamoxifen (...
