Expression data of CD24-CD44+ and ALDH+ cells

ABSTRACT: It has been suggested that breast cancers are driven and maintained by a cellular subpopulation with stem cell properties. These breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs) mediate metastasis and by virtue of their resistance to radiation and chemotherapy, contribute to relapse. Although several BCSC markers have been described, it is unclear whether these markers identify the same or independent BCSC populations. Based on established breast cancer cell lines, as well as primary tumor xenografts, we show that BCSCs exist in distinct mesenchymal-like (epithelial-mesenchymal transition, EMT) and epithelial-like (mesenchymal-epithelial transition, MET) states characterized by expression of distinct markers, proliferative capacity and invasive characteristics. The gene expression profiles of mesenchymal-like and epithelial-like BCSCs are remarkably similar across the different molecular subtypes of breast cancer and resemble those of distinct basal and luminal stem cells found in the normal breast. We propose that the plasticity of BCSCs allowing them to transition between EMT- and MET-like states endows these cells with the capacity for tissue invasion, dissemination and growth at metastatic sites. Breast cancer cell lines, primary xenografts and normal breast cells from patient were sorted using flow cytometry to select for cells that were CD24-,CD44+ and ALDH+. Gene expression profiles of CD24-CD44+ cells were compared with non-CD24-CD44+ cells. Gene expression profiles of ALDH+ cells were compared with ALDH- cells.

RNA-seq of human normal mammary gland cells FACS sorted into three populations: ALDH+, ALDH-CD44+CD24-, and ALDH-CD44-CD24+

Project description:The intent of this experiment was to determine the similarities and differences in expression signatures of normal breast cells that express markers associated with an epithelial-like (ALDH+) and mesenchymal-like (CD44+CD24-) stem cells in the normal human breast. Briefly, tissues were collected from women undergoing voluntary reduction mammoplasty. Tissues were dissociated using chemical and enzymatic methods to yield single cells. These cells were sorted by flow cytometry for aldehyde hydrogenase activity (ALDH+), CD44, and CD24, as well as viability, following depletion of hematopoeitc cells, endothelial cells, and fibroblasts.

c-Src functionality controls self-renewal, tumorigenicity and glucose metabolism in breast cancer stem cells

Project description:Deregulation of Src kinases is associated with cancer. We previously showed that SrcDN conditional expression in MCF7 cells diminished tumorigenesis and causes tumor regression in mice. However, it remained unclear whether SrcDN affected breast cancer stem cell functionality or it reduced tumor mass. Here, we address this question by isolating an enriched population of BCSCs (ESA+-CD44+-CD24-) and the tumor-differentiated cells (ESA+-CD44+-CD24+) from MCF7-Tet-On-SrcDN. ESA+-CD44+-CD24- grew in suspension forming mammospheres, and producing tumors in nude mice, while ESA+-CD44+-CD24+ were poorly/non-tumorigenic. Doxycycline-induction of SrcDN inhibited BCSC tumorigenesis, selfrenewal, and stem-cell markers expression. SrcDN significantly inhibited SFE, and stem-cell markers expression in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) MDA-MB-231 and SUM159PT cells. Inducible depletion of c-Src caused similar effects in MDA-MB-231 cells. In MCF7-Tet-On-SrcDN derived mammospheres SrcDN-induction inhibited expression, and activity of hexokinase, pyruvate kinase and lactate dehydrogenase, resulting in diminished glucose consumption and lactate production, which restricted Warburg effect. Thus, c-Src functionality is important for breast cancer stem cell maintenance and renewal, tumorigenicity, and stem cell transcription factor expression, effects linked to glucose metabolism reduction.

HIF-1-regulated expression of calreticulin promotes breast tumorigenesis and progression through Wnt/β-catenin pathway activation

Project description:Calreticulin (CALR) is a multi-functional protein that participates in various cellular processes, which include calcium homeostasis, cell adhesion, protein folding and cancer progression. However, the role of CALR in breast cancer is unclear. Here we report that CALR is overexpressed in breast cancer compared with normal tissue, and its expression is correlated with patient mortality and stemness indices. CALR expression was increased in mammosphere cultures, CD24-CD44+ subsets and ALDH+ subsets, which are enriched for breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs). Additionally, CALR knockdown led to BCSC depletion, which impaired tumor initiation and metastasis, and enhanced chemosensitivity in vivo. Chromatinimmunoprecipitation and reporter assays revealed that hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) directly activated CALR transcription in hypoxic breast cancer cells. CALR expression was correlated with Wnt/β-catenin pathway activation and an activator of Wnt/β-catenin signaling abrogated the inhibitory effect of CALR knockdown on mammosphere formation. Taken together, our results demonstrate that CALRfacilitates breast cancer progression by promoting the BCSC phenotype through Wnt/β-catenin signaling in a HIF-1-dependent manner, and suggest that CALR may represent a novel target for breast cancer therapy.

Long Non-coding RNA NR2F1-AS1 Induces Breast Cancer Dormancy in Lungs by Regulating NR2F1 and ΔNp63

Project description:We show that the epithelial-like and mesenchymal-like subpopulations of breast cancer stem-like cells (BCSCs) demonstrate different levels dormancy and tumorigenicity in lungs. The long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) molecule NR2F1-AS1 (NAS1) is up-regulated in the dormant BCSC subpopulation, and functionally promotes tumor dissemination but reduces proliferation in lungs. Mechanically, NAS1 promotes internal ribosome entry site (IRES)-mediated NR2F1 translation, leading to inhibition of ΔNp63 transcription by NR2F1. Further, ΔNp63 downregulation results in epithelial-mesenchymal transition, reduced tumorigenicity and enhanced dormancy of cancer cells in lungs.

Essential role of miR-200c in regulating self-renewal of breast cancer stem cells initiating from the counter parts of mammary epithelium

Project description:To explore the roles of essential miRNAs in regulating self-renewal of breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs), which initiate from mammary epithelial stem cells (MaSCs). CD44+CD24-/low cells and MUC1-ESA+ cells were isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) from breast cancer cell line MCF-7 and normal mammary epithelial cell line MCF-10A, and were verified as BCSCs and MaSCs by clonogenic assay and multipotential differentiation experiment in 2-dimensional (2-D) and 3-D cultures, respectively. Using microarray containing oligonucleotides corresponding to 509 miRNAs from human, mouse, and rat genomes. We obtained candidate miRNAs in regulating breast tumorigenesis. One representative miRNA (miR-200c) was proved to regulate stemness of BCSCs and MaSCs in vitro and in vivo by miR-200c agomir transfection. We validated that miR-200c negatively regulated PDCD10, an apoptosis regulator, in BCSCs and MaSCs.

Snail-dependent epithelial splicing regulatory protein 1 (ESRP1) silencing drives malignant transformation of human pulmonary epithelial cells [miRNA]

Project description:The significance of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-inducing transcription factors in the onset of non-small cell lung cancer has not been resolved. Here, we report increased Snail expression in pulmonary premalignant lesions relative to histologically normal-appearing pulmonary epithelium. Utilizing immortalized human pulmonary epithelial cells and isogenic derivatives, we document Snail-dependent anchorage-independent growth of the epithelial cells in vitro, as well as transformation, primary tumor growth, and metastatic behavior in vivo. Epithelial splicing regulatory protein 1 (ESRP1) tumor suppressor silencing was a requirement for Snail-driven transformation in vivo, and we identified ESRP1 loss in Snail-expressing pulmonary premalignant lesions in situ. Snail drives these and other carcinogenic signaling programs in an ALDH+CD44+CD24- pulmonary stem cell subset in which ESRP1 and stemness-repressing micro-RNAs are inhibited.
