    High Estrogen Receptor Alpha Activation Confers Resistance to Estrogen Deprivation and Is Required for Therapeutic Response to Estrogen in Breast Cancer

    Scientists demonstrated that estrogen receptor alpha (ER) overexpression conferred resistance to estrogen deprivation through ER activation in human ER+ breast cancer cells and xenografts grown in mice.

    Abstract

    Up-Regulated circBACH2 Contributes to Cell Proliferation, Invasion, and Migration of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

    Utilizing a circRNA microarray dataset, four circRNAs were identified to be abnormally expressed in TNBC. Among them, circBACH2 was most significantly elevated in TNBC cancerous tissues and its high expression was positively correlated to the malignant progression of TNBC patients.
