RNF208, an estrogen-inducible E3 ligase, targets soluble Vimentin to suppress metastasis in triple-negative breast cancers

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive subtype lacking effective targeted therapies. Here, the authors show that RNF208, an estrogen-induced ubiquitin ligase, promotes the degradation of Vimentin, thereby suppressing lung metastasis of TNBC, and may serve as a biomarker for the diseas...

Sumario:Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive subtype lacking effective targeted therapies. Here, the authors show that RNF208, an estrogen-induced ubiquitin ligase, promotes the degradation of Vimentin, thereby suppressing lung metastasis of TNBC, and may serve as a biomarker for the disease.
