IGF1R Inhibition in Mammary Epithelia Promotes Canonical Wnt Signaling and Wnt1-Driven Tumors
5 Aug 2014
Abstract excerpt
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive disease subtype that, unlike other subtypes, lacks an effective targeted therapy. Inhibitors of the insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF1R) have been considered for use in treating TNBC. Here, we provide genetic evidence that IGF1R inhibition promotes development of Wnt1-mediated murine mammary tumors that offer a model of TNBC. We found that in a double...
