Abstract

Breast cancer is the most prevalent malignancy in the world, and despite tremendous progress in current treatment strategies, recurrence, metastasis and drug resistance of breast cancer remain the major causes of death in patients. Tripartite motif (TRIM) family proteins play a critical role in the tumor progression such as cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and metastasis. Accumulating evidence suggests that the TRIM protein family serve as cancer suppressor proteins or oncoproteins in breast cancer. This review focused on the roles and molecular mechanisms of TRIM protein in breast cancer. Importantly, it provides new insights that TRIM proteins may be ideal targets to treat breast cancer.
