Inhibition of Skeletal Metastasis by Ectopic ERα Expression in ERα-Negative Human Breast Cancer Cell Lines

Some hormone-independent breast cancers lack functional estrogen receptors (ERs) and show evidence of a more aggressive metastatic phenotype. A protective role of the ER has also been suggested in hormoneresistant breast cancer progression. In this study, we have investigated the effect of the ectop...
