Association of TRPS1 gene with different EMT markers in ERα-positive and ERα-negative breast cancer
BACKGROUND Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease consisting of different subtypes. Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome type 1 (TRPS1) gene, a GATA-type transcription factor, has been found to be highly expressed in breast cancer. Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is known to play an important role in tumour invasion and metastasis. Our objective was to elucidate the different roles and c...
متن کاملNeoadjuvant tamoxifen synchronizes ERα binding and gene expression profiles related to outcome and proliferation
Estrogen receptor alpha (ERα)-positive breast cancers are frequently treated with tamoxifen, but resistance is common. It remains elusive how tamoxifen resistance occurs and predictive biomarkers for treatment outcome are needed. Because most biomarker discovery studies are performed using pre-treatment surgical resections, the effects of tamoxifen therapy directly on the tumor cell in vivo rem...
متن کاملGenetic rescue of nonclassical ERα signaling normalizes energy balance in obese Erα-null mutant mice.
In addition to its role in reproduction, estradiol-17β is critical to the regulation of energy balance and body weight. Estrogen receptor α-null (Erα-/-) mutant mice develop an obese state characterized by decreased energy expenditure, decreased locomotion, increased adiposity, altered glucose homeostasis, and hyperleptinemia. Such features are reminiscent of the propensity of postmenopausal wo...
متن کاملThe correlation between DNMT1 and ERα expression and the methylation status of ERα, and its clinical significance in breast cancer
The correlation between the expression of DNA methyltransferase-1 (DNMT1) and estrogen receptor α (ERα), as well as the methylation status of ERα, was analyzed to investigate the clinical significance of DNMT1 and ERα in breast cancer. Substance P immunohistochemistry and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were utilized to detect the protein and mRNA expression levels of D...
متن کاملInfluence of Cellular ERα/ERβ Ratio on the ERα-Agonist Induced Proliferation of Human T47D Breast Cancer Cells
Breast cancer cells show overexpression of estrogen receptor (ER) alpha relative to ERbeta compared to normal breast tissues. This observation has lead to the hypothesis that ERbeta may modulate the proliferative effect of ERalpha. This study investigated how variable cellular expression ratios of the ERalpha and ERbeta modulate the effects on cell proliferation induced by ERalpha or ERbeta ago...
