| Summary: | Breast cancer development and progression are driven by intricate networks involving receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) and steroid hormone receptors specifically estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR). This review examined roles of each receptor under normal physiology and in breast cancer, and explored their multifaceted interactions via signaling pathways, focusing on their contributions to breast cancer progression. Since defining the mechanism by which these two-receptor mediated signaling pathways cooperate is essential for understanding breast cancer progression, we discussed the mechanisms of cross-talk between RTKs and ER and PR and their potential therapeutic implications as well. The crosstalk between RTKs and steroid hormone receptors (ER and PR) in breast cancer can influence the disease's progression and treatment outcomes. Therefore, understanding the functions of the aforementioned receptors and their interactions is crucial for developing effective therapies. |
