SORLA protein promotes the growth of breast cancer brain metastasis – News-Medical.Net
SORLA is a protein trafficking receptor that has been mainly studied in neurons, but it also plays a role in cancer cells.
SORLA is a protein trafficking receptor that has been mainly studied in neurons, but it also plays a role in cancer cells.
Professor Johanna Ivaska’s research group at Turku Bioscience observed that SORLA functionally contributes to the most reported therapy-resistant mechanism by which the cell-surface receptor HER3 counteracts HER2 targeting therapy in HER2-positive cancers. Removing SORLA from cancer cells sensitized anti-HER2 resistant breast cancer brain metastasis to targeted therapy.
HER2…
