Harnessing 3D models of mammary epithelial morphogenesis: An off the beaten path approach to identify candidate biomarkers of early stage breast cancer.

ABSTRACT: Regardless of the etiological factor, an aberrant morphology is the common hallmark of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), which is a highly heterogeneous disease. To test if critical core morphogenetic mechanisms are compromised by different mutations, we performed proteomics analysis of five mammary epithelial HME1 mutant lines that develop a DCIS-like morphology in three dimensional (3D) culture. Here we show first, that all HME1 mutant lines share a common protein signature highlighting an inverse deregulation of two annexins, ANXA2 and ANXA8. Either ANXA2 downregulation or ANXA8 upregulation in the HME1 cell context are per se sufficient to confer a 3D DCIS-like morphology. Seemingly, different mutations impinged on a common mechanism that differentially regulates the two annexins. Second, we show that ANXA8 expression is significantly higher in DCIS tissue samples versus normal breast tissue and atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH). Apparently, ANXA8 expression is significantly more upregulated in ER-negative versus ER-positive cases, and significantly correlates with tumor stage, grade and positive lymph node. Based on our study, 3D mammary morphogenesis models can be an alternate/complementary strategy for unraveling new DCIS mechanisms and biomarkers.

Project description:Cystinosis is a rare, devastating hereditary disease secondary to recessive CTNS gene mutations. The most commonly used diagnostic method is confirmation of an elevated leukocyte cystine level; however, this method is expensive and difficult to perform. This study aimed to identify candidate biomarkers for the diagnosis and follow-up of cystinosis based on multiomics studies. The study included three groups: newly-diagnosed cystinosis patients (patient group, n = 14); cystinosis patients under treatment (treatment group, n = 19); and healthy controls (control group, n = 30). Plasma metabolomics analysis identified 10 metabolites as candidate biomarkers that differed between the patient and control groups [L-serine, taurine, lyxose, 4-trimethylammoniobutanoic acid, orotic acid, glutathione, PE(O-18:1(9Z)/0:0), 2-hydroxyphenyl acetic acid, acetyl-N-formil-5-metoxikinuramine, 3-indoxyl sulphate]. As compared to the healthy control group, in the treatment group, hypotaurine, phosphatidylethanolamine, N-acetyl-d-mannosamine, 3-indolacetic acid, p-cresol, phenylethylamine, 5-aminovaleric acid, glycine, creatinine, and saccharic acid levels were significantly higher, and the metabolites quinic acid, capric acid, lenticin, xanthotoxin, glucose-6-phosphate, taurine, uric acid, glyceric acid, alpha-D-glucosamine phosphate, and serine levels were significantly lower. Urinary metabolomic analysis clearly differentiated the patient group from the control group by means of higher allo-inositol, talose, glucose, 2-hydroxybutiric acid, cystine, pyruvic acid, valine, and phenylalanine levels, and lower metabolite (N-acetyl-L-glutamic acid, 3-aminopropionitrile, ribitol, hydroquinone, glucuronic acid, 3-phosphoglycerate, xanthine, creatinine, and 5-aminovaleric acid) levels in the patient group. Urine metabolites were also found to be significantly different in the treatment group than in the control group. Thus, this study identified candidate biomarkers that could be used for the diagnosis and follow-up of cystinosis.
