Effect of transforming growth factor-β1, insulin-like growth factor-I and insulin-like growth factor-II on cell growth and oestrogen metabolism in human breast cancer cell lines
Oestrogens play an important role in the development of breast cancer. Oestrone sulphate (E1S) acts as a huge reservoir of oestrogens in the breast and is converted to oestrone (E1) by oestrone sulphatase (E1STS). E1 is then reversibly converted to the potent oestrogen, oestradiol (E2) by oestradiol...
