Oleuropein is a natural inhibitor of PAI-1-mediated proliferation in human ER-/PR- breast cancer cells
ConclusionsOur study demonstrates an inverse correlation between PAI-1 and ESR1/PGR levels, as well as overall patient survival in estrogen/progesterone-responsive human tumours. With a focus on breast cancer, our data identify oleuropein as a natural PAI-1 inhibitor and suggest that oleuropein-mediated PAI-1 destabilisation may confer clinical benefit only in ER-/PR- tumours.
