While aromatase inhibitors (AI) are an effective treatment for patients with estrogen receptor positive breast cancer, resistance presents a major obstacle. Here, the authors identify DIO3OS, a long noncoding RNA, as a driver of AI-resistance in breast cancer through the enhancement of aerobic glycolysis.
