| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It has been reported that ER‐positive and HER2‐negative breast cacer patients, so‐called luminal type breast cancer, can lead to late recurrence compared to other BC subtypes, possibly due to the presence of dormant tumor cells. The mechanisms that maintain cancer stem cells (CSCs) in luminal breast cancer remains obscure. We established luminal breast cancer cells derived from patient tissue and analyzed the potency of CSC and related factors with established luminal breast cancer cell lines. Our findings showed that the CSC population in luminal breast cancer induces ectopic expression of FOXA1. The expression of FOXA1 appears to be involved in the proliferation of immature breast cancer cells. Hypoxic stimuli promote the induction of ALDH activity, suggesting the function of hypoxia on tumor environment may influence BCSC fate.
