NR2F1 Is a Barrier to Dissemination of Early-Stage Breast Cancer Cells

Abstract excerpt

Cancer cells can disseminate during very early and sometimes asymptomatic stages of tumor progression. Though biological barriers to tumorigenesis have been identified and characterized, the mechanisms that limit early dissemination remain largely unknown. We report here that the orphan nuclear receptor nuclear receptor subfamily 2, group F, member 1 (NR2F1)/COUP-TF1 serves as a barrier to early dissemination....
