drug target | investigation of the role of the enzyme (PRMT2) in breast cancer progression and for developing a new endocrine therapeutic strategy for breast cancer patients with tamoxifen resistance | Homo sapiens |
metabolism | tamoxifen treatment induces a decrease in the enzyme (PRMT2) and an increase in ER-alpha36 as well as ER-alpha36-mediated non-genomic effect in MDA-MB-231 cells, which are relatively resistant to tamoxifen by contrast to MCF-7 cells. PRMT2 is able to interact with ER-alpha36 directly, suppress ER-alpha36 and downstream PI3K/Akt and MAPK/ERK signaling, reversing the tamoxifen resistance of breast cancer cells | Homo sapiens |
