We also demonstrated that Kindlin-1 mRNA expression was significantly increased in sensitive cell lines to different MEK inhibitors such as Trametinib (p=0.007) or Selumetinib (p=0.005) compared with resistant cells. In addition, in preclinical TNBC PDX models treated with Selumetinib there was a correlation between tumor growth inhibition and Kindlin-1 protein expression (r=0.57; p=0.017).
