Protein Phosphatase 1H, Cyclin-Dependent Kinase Inhibitor p27, and Cyclin-Dependent Kinase 2 in Paclitaxel Resistance for Triple Negative Breast Cancers.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Paclitaxel is a cytotoxic chemotherapy commonly used in patients with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC); however, the resistance to paclitaxel is a cause of poor response in the patients. The aim of this study was to examine the role of protein phosphatase 1H (PPM1H) in paclitaxel resistance in breast cancer patients.

Methods

To investigate the function of PPM1H in paclitaxel treatment, we conducted in vitro assays and molecular experiments using a stable cell line (MDA-MB-231) in which PPM1H is overexpressed. We also performed molecular analyses on patient tissue samples. Molecular expression related to PPM1H in breast cancer patients was analyzed using TCGA data.

Results

We investigated whether PPM1H was associated with paclitaxel resistance in bre
