Serum amyloid A promotes invasion of feline mammary carcinoma cells.

ABSTRACT: The serum amyloid A (SAA) concentration is higher in mammary tumors with metastases in both humans and animals. In the present study, the direct effects of recombinant feline SAA (rfSAA) protein on invasiveness of feline mammary carcinoma cells were evaluated. As an indicator of invasiveness, matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) expression was investigated in 4 feline mammary carcinoma cell lines of different origins. In 3 of 4 cell lines, MMP-9 expression was significantly increased by rfSAA stimulation. The invasive capacities of feline mammary carcinoma cells were also stimulated by rfSAA. The findings of this study have identified a novel role for SAA in mammary tumorigenesis and suggest that therapeutic strategies targeting SAA may provide new alternatives in treating tumor invasion and metastasis.

Project description:BackgroundFeline mammary carcinoma (FMC) is a common aggressive and highly metastatic cancer affecting female cats. Early detection is essential for preventing local and distant metastasis, thereby improving overall survival rates. While acquiring molecular data before surgery offers significant potential benefits, the current protein biomarkers for monitoring disease progression in non-metastatic FMC (NmFMC) and metastatic FMC (mFMC) are limited. The objective of this study was to investigate the serum peptidome profiles of NmFMC and mFMC using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. A cross-sectional study was conducted to compare serum peptidome profiles in 13 NmFMC, 23 mFMC and 18 healthy cats. The liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis was performed on non-trypsinized samples.ResultsOut of a total of 8284 expressed proteins observed, several proteins were found to be associated with human breast cancer. In NmFMC, distinctive protein expressions encompassed double-stranded RNA-binding protein Staufen homolog 2 (STAU2), associated with cell proliferation, along with bromodomain adjacent to zinc finger domain 2A (BAZ2A) and gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunit epsilon (GABRE), identified as potential treatment targets. Paradoxically, positive prognostic markers emerged, such as complement C1q like 3 (C1QL3) and erythrocyte membrane protein band 4.1 (EPB41 or 4.1R). Within the mFMC group, overexpressed proteins associated with poor prognosis were exhibited, including B-cell lymphoma 6 transcription repressor (BCL6), thioredoxin reductase 3 (TXNRD3) and ceruloplasmin (CP). Meanwhile, the presence of POU class 5 homeobox (POU5F1 or OCT4) and laminin subunit alpha 1 (LAMA1), reported as metastatic biomarkers, was noted.ConclusionThe presence of both pro- and anti-proliferative proteins was observed, potentially indicating a distinctive characteristic of NmFMC. Conversely, proteins associated with poor prognosis and metastasis were noted in the mFMC group.
