Blocking Androgen Receptor/Androgen Receptor Variant7 Decreases Metastasis of Estrogen Receptor Positive Breast Cancer Cells Through Modulating Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition
Abstract:Purpose: Androgen receptor (AR) is often expressed in breast cancer, but its role in estrogen receptor positive (ER+) type is controversial. Although AR and its splicing variant 7 (ARV7) play a role in the pathobiology of breast cancer, the precise mechanisms are not fully understood. Therefore, the aim of the current study is to determine the influence of the blockers of AR (Enzalutamide) and ARV7 (EPI-001) on metastasis and epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) in T47D, an ER+ breast cancer cell line.
