Regulation of breast cancer metastasis by Runx2 and estrogen signaling: the role of SNAI2
9 Dec 2011
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: In contrast to its role in breast cancer (BCa) initiation, estrogen signaling has a protective effect in later stages, where estrogen receptor (ER)α loss associates with aggressive metastatic disease. We asked whether the beneficial effect of estrogen signaling in late-stage BCa is attributable to the recently reported estrogen-mediated antagonism of the pro-metastatic transcription factor Runx2....
