Schematic diagram of exosomal lncRNA-SNHG14 in breast cancer trastuzumab resistance. In trastuzumab-resistant breast cancer cells, lncRNA-SNHG14 promotes trastuzumab resistance by targeting Bcl-2/Bax signaling, inducing the suppression of apoptotic proteins expression and inhibition of cell apoptosis. Moreover, lncRNA-SNHG14 can be packaged into exosomes and secreted from trastuzumab-resistant breast cancer cells, transferring resistance to recipient-sensitive cells. SNGH14, small nucleolar RNA host gene 14; lncRNA, long non-coding RNA; Bcl-2, apoptosis regulator Bcl-2; Bax, apoptosis regulator BAX; HER-2, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2; Casp 3, caspase-3; c-PARP, cleaved poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase.
