    Author : Hanna Chahin; Dianna Jazera; [2021]
    Keywords : hypoxia; breast cancer; GPR30 estrogen receptor; Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Introduction: Hypoxia that accompanies tumor growth induces the expression of hypoxiainducible factor a (HIF-1a), in turn mediating the expression of other genes, including G protein-coupled receptor 30 (GPR30), to promote adaption to the hypoxic microenvironment and enable cell proliferation and survival. Nonetheless, this correlation has not been causally explained. READ MORE
