View full abstract and other project information on NIH RePORTER Go To NIH RePORTER Excerpt: Development of new and improved strategies for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) treatment is urgently needed since molecular complexity of TNBC together with therapy-associated side effects and emergence of drug-resistance often limit effectiveness of current therapies. CARP-1/CCAR1 is a ubiquitous, phospho-protein that can induce proliferation and apoptosis through multiple mechanisms. CARP-1 transduces chemotherapy (adriamycin, etoposide, or Iressa)-dependent inhibitory signaling, and co-a... |
