| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We demonstrated that specific inhibitor of the BIG3-PHB2 complex, which is a critical modulator in estrogen (E2) signaling, ERAP, leads to suppression of E2-dependent estrogen-signaling activation. Here, we report that ERAP has significant suppressive effects against synergistic activation caused by the cross-talk between E2 and growth factors associated with intrinsic or acquired resistance to endocrine-therapy in breast cancer cells. Importantly, combined treatment with ERAP and some known anti-estrogen led to a synergistic suppression of signaling that was activated by cross-talk between E2 and growth factors or HER2 amplification. Furthermore, BIG3 overexpression is strongly associated with poor prognosis of breast cancer.
Taken together, our findings suggest that the specific inhibition of BIG3-PHB2 is a novel potential therapeutic approach for the treatment of endocrine-resistant breast cancers activated by the cross-talk between E2 and growth factor signaling.
