Fulvestrant and breast cancer cells

The figures show that fulvestrant-mediated cytoplasmic localization of ER is associated with intermediate filament proteins CK8 and CK18. After treatment of MCF-7 and T47D cells (breast cancer cells) with Fulvestrant, dramatic cytoplasmic localization of ER was observed. The results indicate that the presence of CK8 and CK18 is necessary for fulvestrant-induced cytoplasmic localization of ER, which keeps the receptor away from the nucleus where it could activate growth promoting genes.2009Image by Kenneth NephewFulvestrant and breast cancer cells
