Estrogen receptor alpha is cell cycle-regulated and regulates the cell cycle in a ligand-dependent fashion
7 Apr 2016
Abstract excerpt
Estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) has been implicated in several cell cycle regulatory events and is an important predictive marker of disease outcome in breast cancer patients. Here, we aimed to elucidate the mechanism through which ERα influences proliferation in breast cancer cells. Our results show that ERα protein is cell cycle-regulated in human breast cancer cells and that the presence of 17-β-estradiol (E2)...
