GPR110 promotes progression and metastasis of triple-negative breast cancer

초록

Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in women, and approximately 70% of all breast cancer patients use endocrine therapy, such as estrogen receptor modulators and aromatase inhibitors. In particular, triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) remains a major threat due to the lack of targeted treatment options and poor clinical outcomes. Here, we found that GPR110 was highly expressed in TNBC and GPR110 plays a key role in TNBC progression by engaging the RAS signaling pathway (via G alpha s activation). High expression of GPR110 promoted EMT and CSC phenotypes in breast cancer. Consequently, our study highlights the critical role of GPR110 as a therapeutic target and inhibition of GPR110 could provide a therapeutic strategy for the treatment of TNBC patients.
