Prion protein and breast cancer

Recently, gene expression profiling and
in vitro cell models
have shown that ectopic expression of PrPc, a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored
protein, expressed by all known mammals, predominantly in the
brain, protects mammary tumor cells from cell death induced
by TNF. Although PrPc is well known for its implication in transmissible
spongiform encephalopathy, evidence has emerged it may function
to protect cells from various kinds of internal or environmental
stress. In this regard, PrPc over-expression rescues tumor cell
lines from pro-apoptotic stimuli and anti-cancer drug treatments.
