  • In this study, stimulation by the TRPV1 agonist, capsaicin, of SUM149PT cells, a model system for the most aggressive breast cancer subtype, triple-negative breast cancer, led to intracellular calcium signals that were diminished by the specific TRPV1 antagonist, capsazepin. (dovepress.com)
  • In conclusion, the current study revealed the expression profiles of human TRP channels in 60 different breast cancer tissues and cell lines and furthermore validated the antitumor activity of TRPV1 against SUM149PT breast cancer cells, indicating that activation of TRPV1 could be used as a therapeutic target, even in the most aggressive breast cancer types.

  • whereas human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancers can be targeted by specific drugs, the triple-negative breast cancer phenotype is defined by chromosomal instability and low expression levels of estrogen receptor (ER) alpha, progesterone receptor (PR), and HER2, rendering treatment rather difficult.
