Deskripsi
Glucocorticoids (GC) are reported to block cancer cell proliferation, but the mode of action is unclear. Here the authors show that glucocorticoid receptor activation induces cancer cell dormancy in lung cancer by regulating CDKN1C expression through a distal enhancer, and these dormant cells are addicted to IGF-1R signalling pathway.
