Background PPFIA1 is an important regulator of cell migration and invasion, regulating focal adhesion signalling and disassembly. PPFIA1 is frequently amplified in breast cancer, and recent functional studies indicate that PPFIA1 is an important pro...

Purpose: Breast cancer (BC) is a heterogeneous disease consisting of various subtypes, with different prognostic and therapeutic outcomes. The amino acid transporter, SLC7A8, is over expressed in estrogen receptor positive BC. However the consequenc...

Co-Expression Effect of SLC7A5/SLC3A2 to Predict Response to Endocrine Therapy in Oestrogen-Receptor-Positive Breast Cancer (2020)
Journal Article

Co-Expression Effect of SLC7A5/SLC3A2 to Predict Response to Endocrine Therapy in Oestrogen-Receptor-Positive Breast Cancer. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 21(4), Article 1407. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms21041407

The majority of breast cancers are oestrogen receptor positive (ER+) and are subject to endocrine therapy however, an unpredictable subgroup of patients will develop resistance to endocrine therapy. SLC7A5/SLC3A2 complex is a major route for the tran... Read More about Co-Expression Effect of SLC7A5/SLC3A2 to Predict Response to Endocrine Therapy in Oestrogen-Receptor-Positive Breast Cancer.
