Progesterone receptor expression contributes to gemcitabine resistance at higher ECM stiffness in breast cancer cell lines.
Chemoresistance poses a great barrier to breast cancer treatment and is thought to correlate with increased matrix stiffness. We developed two-dimensional (2D) polyacrylamide (PAA) and three-dimensional (3D) alginate in vitro models of tissue stiffness that mimic the stiffness of normal breast and b...
