CD44/cellular prion protein interact in multidrug resistant breast cancer cells and correlate with responses to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer patients
Abstract Multidrug resistance (MDR) is one of the most important factors leading to chemotherapeutic failure in patients with breast cancer. The invasive/metastatic ability of MDR cells is strengthened compared with their parental cells. However, the mechanisms underlying MDR have not been fully elucidated. We found that CD44 and the cellular prion protein (PrPc) were both overexpressed in MDR cells (MCF7/Adr and H69AR). Subsequently, we chose the human breast cancer cell line MCF7/Adr, which is resistant to adriamycin, for further research. We discovered that PrPc physically and functionally interacted with CD44. The knoc...
