Abstract
TRP channels play important roles in regulating various physiological and pathological processes, including the progression of cancer. Several TRP channels mediate tumour development. This review focuses on the role of TRP channels in the development of breast cancer, including their involvement in proliferation, apoptosis, autophagy, metastasis, and angiogenesis. TRP channels are associated with breast carcinogenesis and their role as potential therapeutic targets and prognostic biomarkers is under investigation. This review summarizes the reported effects of inhibiting or agonizing various TRP channel in breast cancer cells. Although there are relatively mature protocols for the treatment of breast cancer, its treatment is not currently a breakthrough, and therapies targeting TRP channels may be a developable strategy for it.
期刊介绍:
Much of contemporary investigation in the life sciences is devoted to the molecular-scale understanding of the relationships between genes and the environment — in particular, dynamic alterations in the levels, modifications, and interactions of cellular effectors, including proteins. Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences offers an international publication platform for basic as well as applied research; we encourage contributions spanning both established and emerging areas of biology. To this end, the journal draws from empirical disciplines such as structural biology, enzymology, biochemistry, and biophysics, capitalizing as well on the technological advancements that have enabled metabolomics and proteomics measurements in massively parallel throughput, and the development of robust and innovative computational biology strategies. We also recognize influences from medicine and technology, welcoming studies in molecular genetics, molecular diagnostics and therapeutics, and nanotechnology.
Our ultimate objective is the comprehensive illustration of the molecular mechanisms regulating proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, lipids, and small metabolites in organisms across all branches of life.
In addition to interesting new findings, techniques, and applications, Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences will consider new testable hypotheses to inspire different perspectives and stimulate scientific dialogue. The integration of in silico, in vitro, and in vivo approaches will benefit endeavors across all domains of the life sciences.
