Endocrine Oncology (EnOn)
The group is working in two lines of research about human breast cancer. In the first one, we study the involvement of the POU1F1 transcription factor (also known as Pit-1) in the pathogenesis of breast cancer. Specifically, how the POU1F1 expressed by tumor cells could interact with stromal cells, and the role of POU1F1 in breast cell plasticity, including breast tumor cells, normal epithelial cells, and breast stem cells. In the second line, we evaluate if no-calcemic vitamin D analogs and retinoid analogs could be used for breast cancer treatment.
