Abstract excerpt
Estrogen promotes the proliferation of human breast epithelial cells by interacting with the estrogen receptor (ER). Physiological responses of cells to estrogen are regulated in part by degradation of the ER. Previous studies revealed that calmodulin binds directly to the ER, thereby enhancing its stability. Consistent with these findings, cell-permeable calmodulin antagonists dramatically reduced the number of...
