Cellular Metabolism of Estradiol in Models for Select Molecular Subtypes of Clinical Breast Cancer

Abstract: The mitogenic ovarian steroid hormone 17β-estradiol (E 2 ) is associated with progression of Estrogen Receptor Positive (ER + ) breast cancer, and ER represents a major therapeutic target for endocrine therapy. In addition to the ER dependent signal transduction, cellular oxidative metabolism of the ER ligand E 2 generates several metabolites with pleotropic growth modulatory effects on breast cancer cells, providing valuable leads for novel therapeutic approach. The molecular classification of clinical breast… Show more

“…In addition, contrary to the non-tumorigenic control cells, the breast carcinoma-derived cells appeared to have retained an enhanced risk for tumor development, as indicated by their ability to exhibit AI growth in vitro and tumor development in vivo following subcutaneous transplantation. Thus, AI growth represents a specific and sensitive in vitro surrogate biomarker for cancer risk (13,(17)(18)(19)(20).…”
