Twist expression in HMLE and breast cancer T47D cells

ABSTRACT: Twist is a key EMT inducer, expression of Twist will induce EMT in HMLE and breast tumor T47D cells By expressing Twist in HMLE and T47D cells, which lack the expression of Twist, will identify the genes regulated by Twist Expressing Twist in HMLE and T47D cells, stable clones were selected and treated with BET inhibitor JQ1 and RNA were prepared for microarray analysis

Project description:Deleted in Liver Cancer-1 (DLC1), a member of the RhoGAP family of proteins, functions as a tumor suppressor in several cancers including breast cancer. However, its clinical relevance is unclear in breast cancer. In this study, expression of DLC1 was correlated with prognosis using publicly available breast cancer gene expression datasets and quantitative Reverse Transcription PCR in cohorts of Estrogen Receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer. Mutation and methylation status of DLC1 were assessed in these datasets including The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). To seek further insights in understanding the role of DLC1 in ER+ breast cancer, we developed a knock-in model of DLC1 in T47D breast cancer cells. Label-free global proteomic and TiO2 phosphopeptide enrichment assays were performed and validated using Western blotting. Here, we report that low expression of DLC1 correlates with poor prognosis in patients with ER+ breast cancer with further decrease in metastatic lesions. Analysis of the TCGA data showed that down regulation of DLC1 is not due to methylation or mutations. Stable knock-in of DLC1-full-length inhibits cell growth significantly in vitro compared to its control counterpart. 6726 phosphopeptides were quantified by phosphoproteomics analysis in both conditons, whereas 205 and 122 were unique to DLC1 knock-in and T47D-control cells, respectively. Pathway analysis using DAVID showed the top three significant clusters of differentially identified phosphopeptides involving cell-cell adhesion, mRNA processing and splicing, and transcription regulation. Decreased phosphorylation of epithelial cell transforming sequence 2 (ECT2) at the residue T359, critical for its active conformational change was validated. In conclusion, this data suggests that high expression of DLC1 reduces cell growth and is associated with favorable prognosis. Our results document an inverse relation between ECT2 phosphorylation and DLC1 expression, promising a novel strategy for treating ER+ breast cancer.
