Abstract

Factors released during osteoclastic bone resorption enhance disseminated breast cancer cell progression by stimulating invasiveness, growth, and a bone-resorptive phenotype in cancer cells. Postmenopausal bone loss may accelerate progression of breast cancer growth in bone, explaining the anticancer benefit of the bone-specific antiresorptive agent zoledronic acid in the postmenopausal setting.
