Na+/H+ exchange in the tumour microenvironment: Does NHE1 drive breast cancer carcinogenesis?
Download2015-01-01
Amith, Schammim Ray, Fong, Sunny, Baksh, Shairaz, Fliegel, Larry
Ionic messengers signal several critical events in carcinogenesis, including metastasis, the leading cause of patient mortality. The aberrant metabolic, proliferative and anti-apoptotic nature of neoplastic cells can be traced to the abnormal expression of their ion transporters and related...

The na+/H+ exchanger (NHE1) as a novel co-adjuvant target in paclitaxel therapy of triple-negative breast cancer cells
Download2015-01-01
Amith, Schammim Ray, Wilkinson, Jodi Marie, Baksh, Shairaz, Fliegel, Larry
Dysregulation of Na+/H+ exchanger isoform one (NHE1) activity is a hallmark of cells undergoing tumorigenesis and metastasis, the leading cause of patient mortality. The acidic tumor microenvironment is thought to facilitate the development of resistance to chemotherapy drugs and to promote...
