Abstract excerpt
Increased evidence suggests that somatic mutations in the ligand-binding domain of estrogen receptor [ER (ERα/ESR1)] are critical mediators of endocrine-resistant breast cancer progression. Insulinlike growth factor-1 (IGF1) is an essential regulator of breast development and tumorigenesis and also has a role in endocrine resistance. A recent study showed enhanced crosstalk between IGF1 and ERα in ESR1 mutant...
