Associations and interactions between the co-regulatory protein SRC-1 and Ets-2 in breast cancer

McIlroy M , Myers E , Hill A , Young L

In breast cancer associations between p160 co-activator proteins and the development of resistance to endocrine treatment have been shown. We hypothesized that nuclear co-regulatory proteins may interact with non-steroid receptors. We investigated the effect of silencing the co-activator, SRC-1, on tumour cell growth in vitro. We also examined the MAPK activated transcription factors, Ets, as possible interaction proteins of the co-activator SRC-1 in human breast cancer. The e...
