Many epidemiological studies have shown that chronic alcohol consumption increases significantly the incidence of breast cancer. Moreover, in vitro and in vivo studies show that ethanol can promote not only tumorogenesis but also tumor cells migration. These effects seem to be related to the hormone dependent status of breast cancer cells. The aim of our study was to elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms by using the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. First, we have confirmed that ethanol can stimulate the proliferation of these cells. We demonstrated that this effect is associated to an increase in the expression of ERa, COX-2 and aromatase, the enzyme responsible for estrogen synthesis. In contrast, other alcohols, such as methanol or...
