An investigation of Sigma-1 receptor expression and ligand-induced endoplasmic reticulum stress in breast cancer – Cancer Gene Therapy
Targeted therapeutic options and prognostic biomarkers for hormone receptor- or Her2 receptor-negative breast cancers are severely limited. The sigma-1 receptor, a stress-activated chaperone, is frequently dysregulated in disease. However, its significance in breast cancer (BCa) has not been adequately explored. Here, we report that the sigma-1 receptor gene (SIGMAR1) is elevated in BCa,…
