Targeting PP2A inhibits the growth of triple-negative breast cancer cells

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) does not respond to widely used targeted/endocrine therapies because of the absence of progesterone and estrogen receptors and HER2 amplification. It has been shown that the majority of TNBC cells are highly sensitive to tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)-induced apoptosis, but the development of TRAIL resistance limits its efficacy. We previously found that protein phosphatase 2A...
