Oestrogen Non-Genomic Signalling is Activated in Tamoxifen-Resistant Breast Cancer

Résumé

Endocrine therapies targeting oestrogen signalling have significantly improved breast cancer management. However, their efficacy is limited by intrinsic and acquired resistance to treatment, which remains a major challenge for oestrogen receptor α (ERα)-positive tumours. Though many studies using in vitro models of endocrine resistance have identified putative actors of resistance, no consensus has been reached. We demonstrated previously that oestrogen non-genomic signalling, characterized by the formation of the ERα/Src/PI3K complex, is activated in aggressive breast cancers (BC). We wondered herein whether the activation of this pathway is also involved in resistance to endocrine therapies. We studied the interactions between ERα and Src or PI3K by proximity ligation assay (PLA) in in-vitro and in-vivo endocrine therapy-resistant breast cancer models. We reveal an increase in ERα/Src and ERα/PI3K interactions in patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) with acquired resistance to tamoxifen, as well as in tamoxifen-resistant MCF-7 cells compared to parental counterparts. Moreover, no interactions were observed in breast cancer cells resistant to other endocrine therapies. Finally, the use of a peptide inhibiting the ERα–Src interaction partially restored tamoxifen sensitivity in resistant cells, suggesting that such components could constitute promising targets to circumvent resistance to tamoxifen in BC.
