PG - 5407-5414 LID - 10.1007/s11033-023-08384-7 [doi] AB - Breast cancer is one of the most serious malignancies among women, accounting for about 12% of all cancers. The inherent complexity and heterogeneity of breast cancer results in failure to respond to treatment in the advanced stages of the disease. Breast cancer is caused by several genetic and environmental factors. One of the significant factors involved in the development of breast cancer is oxidative stress, which is generally regulated by nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2). The level of NRF2 expression is low in healthy cells, which maintains the balance of the antioxidant system; however, its expression is higher in cancer cells, which have correlation characteristics such as angiogenesis, stem cell formation, drug resistance, and metastasis. Drug resistance increases with the upregulation of NRF2 expression, which contributes to cell protection. NRF2 controls this mechanism by increasing the expression of ATP-binding cassettes (ABCs). Considering the growing number of studies in this field, we aimed to investigate the relationship between NRF2 and ABCs, as well as their role in the development of drug resistance in breast cancer.
