AFF3 upregulation mediates tamoxifen resistance in breast cancers [PDF]
Background Although tamoxifen is a highly effective drug for treating estrogen receptor–positive (ER+) breast cancer, nearly all patients with metastasis with initially responsive tumors eventually relapse, and die from acquired drug resistance ...

Mechanisms of tamoxifen resistance [PDF]
The anti-oestrogen tamoxifen is the most commonly used treatment for patients with oestrogen-receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer. Although many patients benefit from tamoxifen in the adjuvant and metastatic settings, resistance is an important clinical problem. The target of tamoxifen in vivo is the ER.

Pathways to tamoxifen resistance [PDF]
Therapies that target the synthesis of estrogen or the function of estrogen receptor(s) have been developed to treat breast cancer. While these approaches have proven to be beneficial to a large number of patients, both de novo and acquired resistance to these drugs is a significant problem.

Resuming Sensitivity of Tamoxifen-Resistant Breast Cancer Cells to Tamoxifen by Tetrandrine [PDF]
Background: Tamoxifen is one of the medicines for adjuvant endocrine therapy of hormone-dependent breast cancer. However, development of resistance to tamoxifen occurs inevitably during treatment. This study aimed to determine whether sensitivity of tamoxifen-resistant breast cancer cells (TAM-R) could be reinstated by tetrandrine (Tet).

Tamoxifen Resistance: Emerging Molecular Targets [PDF]
17β-Estradiol (E2) plays a pivotal role in the development and progression of breast cancer. As a result, blockade of the E2 signal through either tamoxifen (TAM) or aromatase inhibitors is an important therapeutic strategy to treat or prevent estrogen receptor (ER) positive breast cancer.

Progress in the Understanding of the Mechanism of Tamoxifen Resistance in Breast Cancer
Tamoxifen is a drug commonly used in the treatment of breast cancer, especially for postmenopausal patients. However, its efficacy is limited by the development of drug resistance. Downregulation of estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) is an important mechanism

Inhibition of STAT3 enhances sensitivity to tamoxifen in tamoxifen-resistant breast cancer cells [PDF]
Abstract Background The mechanisms of endocrine resistance are complex, and deregulation of several oncogenic signalling pathways has been proposed. We aimed to investigate the role of the EGFR and Src-mediated STAT3 signalling pathway in tamoxifen-resistant breast cancer cells. Methods

Tamoxifen‐based hormone therapy is central for the treatment of estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer. However, the acquired tamoxifen resistance, typically co‐exists with hypoxia, remains a major challenge.

Molecular Analysis of Acquired Tamoxifen Resistance in Breast Cancer Cell Line
Background: Tamoxifen is an FDA approved drug for the prevention and the treatment of breast cancer, but its therapeutic benefit is limited by the development of drug resistance.
