Prolactin-Induced Protein (PIP) Regulates Proliferation of Luminal A Type Breast Cancer Cells in an Estrogen-Independent Manner
Prolactin-induced Protein (PIP), an aspartyl protease unessential for normal mammalian cell function, is required for the proliferation and invasion of some breast cancer (BCa) cell types. Because PIP expression is particularly high in the Luminal A BCa subtype, we investigated the roles of PIP in t...
