Abstract excerpt
We previously established that exposure of the estrogen receptor (ER) alpha positive MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line to 17-beta-estradiol (E2) results in the post-confluent development of multilayered cellular aggregates (foci) which is consistent with the in vivo cancer phenotype of uncontrolled cellular proliferation. In this investigation, the interaction between the insulin-like growth factor receptor...
