Women with ER+ tumors will receive endocrine therapy, yet ~50% will experience relapse and late recurrence ~5-20 years after primary diagnosis. The recurrent tumors are often aggressive, resistant, and metastatic. A growing body of evidence suggests that an inflammatory microenvironment and the activation of the NF-ĸB pathway are highly associated with the progression of ER+ tumors to more aggressive stages. However, it is unknown whether NF-ĸB is a driver or a consequence of aggressive ER+ disease. In order to study this, we developed multiple ER+ breast cancer cell lines expressing a Doxycycline-inducible, constitutively active form of IĸB kinase β (CA-IKKβ), a key kinase in the canonical NF-ĸB pathway. This allowed us to specifically activate the canonical arm of the NF-ĸB pathway in a controlled fashion. Overall design: Constitutively active IKK β-MCF-7 cells are treated with Estrogen (E2), Doxycycline (Dox) or E2+Dox for 72 hrs.The study includes four groups: Vehicle, E2, Dox and E2+Dox with three replicates per group.</long_description><repository>ENA</repository><description_synonyms>oestrogen receptor positive breast cancer, ER+ breast cancer, Phenotypes., estrogen receptor positive breast cancer, estrogen-receptor positive breast cancer</description_synonyms><name_synonyms>Human, Modern., human being, Man (Taxonomy), Homo sapiens, man, Man, human, Modern Man</name_synonyms></additional><is_claimable>false</is_claimable><name>Homo sapiens</name><description>The effect of IKKβ on estrogen receptor positive breast cancer phenotypes</description><dates><last_updated>2025-09-24</last_updated><first_public>2016-08-18</first_public></dates><accession>PRJNA339054</accession><cross_references><GEO>GSE85683</GEO><taxon>9606</taxon></cross_references></HashMap>
