| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Approximately 70% of breast cancer, which is the frequent cancer in female, is estrogen receptor (ER) positive and grows in an estrogen-dependent manner. Hormone therapy that inhibits estrogen is effective, but the problem is to acquire the therapy resistance and subsequent relapse. We have found that the ESR1 gene encoding ER is highly expressed by inducing the long noncoding RNAs (named Eleanors) from the ESR1 locus in therapy-resistant breast cancer. The purpose of this study is to establish a new application platform for the estrogen-induced apoptosis using the Eleanor RNAs as an indicator, based on the molecular mechanisms of hormone therapy resistance in breast cancer. We demonstrated that apoptosis induced by ER ligands is effective as a new therapeutic strategy in hormone therapy-resistant breast cancer.
