Core Tip |
Autophagy is thought to be a tumor suppressor pathway. However, once a tumor is formed, it may contribute to tumor cell survival in response to metabolic stress or to therapy. On the other hand, it has also been suggested that autophagy could be induced during breast cancer therapy to kill cells that avoid apoptosis. Here, we discuss some of the recent findings relating autophagy and cancer with a particular focus on breast cancer therapy. We conclude that there are important unresolved questions that should be addressed before autophagy can be successfully targeted for breast cancer treatment. |
