Adipose cells promote resistance of breast cancer cells to trastuzumab-mediated antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity

Conclusions: Collectively, our findings underline the importance of adipose tissue in the resistance to trastuzumab, and suggest that approaches targeting the adipocyte-cancer cell crosstalk may help sensitize cancer cells to trastuzumab-based therapy.
