Abstract Aromatase inhibitors (AIs) reduce recurrences and mortality in postmenopausal patients with oestrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer (BC), but >20% of patients will eventually relapse. Given the limited understanding of intrinsic resistance in these tumours, here we conduct a large-scale molecular analysis to identify features that impact on the response of ER + HER2- BC to AI.
Abstract Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are rare and diverse mesenchymal cancers with limited treatment options. Here we undertake comprehensive proteomic profiling of tumour specimens from 321 STS patients representing 11 histological subtypes. Within leiomyosarcomas, we identify three proteomic subtypes with distinct myogenesis and immune features, anatomical site distribution and survival outcomes.
Previously, we reported the development of long-term-estrogen-deprived (LTED) derivatives from a number of ESR1-positive BC cell lines (including MCF7, HCC1428, T47D, ZR75.1, and SUM44)14,15. In general, estrogen deprivation leads to an initial quiescent population accompanied by cell death and after many weeks to outgrowth of a cell population that then proliferates independently of exogenous estrogen (Supplementary Fig. 1a–d).
