Journal ArticleDOI

Aromatase, aromatase inhibitors, and breast cancer.

TL;DR: Three aromatase inhibitors (AIs) are now FDA approved and have been shown to be more effective than the antiestrogen tamoxifen and are well tolerated and are now a standard treatment for postmenopausal patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of Androgens on MCF-7 Breast Cancer Cell Growth and on the Inhibitory Effect of Letrozole

TL;DR: It is reported that androgens, such as the aromatizable androstenedione and the non-aromatizable 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone, inhibit MCF-7 cell proliferation and suppression of the estrogen-induced antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2 may be involved in the antiproliferative effects of androgens and letrozole.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional Activation of the Estrogen Receptor-α and Aromatase by the HDAC Inhibitor Entinostat Sensitizes ER-Negative Tumors to Letrozole

TL;DR: The results show that ENT treatment can be used to restore the letrozole responsiveness of ER-negative tumors, and provide a strong rationale for immediate clinical evaluation of combinations of histone deacetylase and aromatase inhibitors to treat ER- negative and endocrine-resistant breast cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase in Xenografts and Cells during Prolonged Treatment with Aromatase Inhibitor Letrozole

TL;DR: Combined treatment with ER down-regulator fulvestrant and letrozole prevented increases in erbB-2 and activation of MAPK and was highly effective in inhibiting tumor growth throughout 29 weeks of treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trastuzumab reverses letrozole resistance and amplifies the sensitivity of breast cancer cells to estrogen.

TL;DR: It is suggested that LTLT-Ca cells survive estrogen deprivation by activation of Her-2/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, and trastuzumab is beneficial in hormone-refractory cells and xenografts by restoring ER, implicating Her- 2 as a negative regulator of ERalpha.
