Sumario:Breast cancer is a common cancer in women and a leading cause of mortality. With the early diagnosis and development of therapeutic drugs, the prognosis of breast cancer has markedly improved. Chemotherapy is one of the predominant strategies for the treatment of breast cancer. Taxanes, including paclitaxel and docetaxel, are widely used in the treatment of breast cancer and remarkably decrease the risk of death and recurrence. However, taxane resistance caused by multiple factors significantly impacts the effect of the drug and leads to poor prognosis. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to play a significant role in critical cellular processes, and a number of studies have illustrated that lncRNAs play vital roles in taxane resistance. In this review, we systematically summarize the mechanisms of taxane resistance in breast cancer and the functions of lncRNAs in taxane resistance in breast cancer. The findings provide insight into the role of lncRNAs in taxane resistance and suggest that lncRNAs may be used to develop therapeutic targets to prevent or reverse taxane resistance in patients with breast cancer.
