Abstract 1013: Role of mitochondria and glutamine metabolism in therapy resistance: Combined targeting of estrogen receptor alpha and exportin 1 in endocrine resistant breast cancers
Abstract:Majority of breast cancer specific deaths in women with ERα (+) tumor occur due to metastases that are resistant to endocrine therapy. There is a critical need for novel therapeutic approaches to prevent or delay recurrence of ERα (+) tumors. The objective of this study was to elucidate the role of mitochondrial pathways that are activated in the presence of single therapies and undermine therapy effectiveness in ER (+) breast cancers. In our previous studies, we identified Exportin 1 (XPO1), a nuclear export … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
