Abstract
⺠Cathepsins B and D were markedly enhanced by octylphenol (OP) in MCF-7 cells. ⺠OP may accelerate breast cancer cell growth and cathepsins via ER-mediated signaling. ⺠Breast cancer cells exposed with OP to mouse model were more aggressive. ⺠OP can promote metastasis through the amplification of cathepsins B and D via ER-mediated signaling pathway.
