Over-expression of FSIP1 promotes breast cancer progression and confers resistance to docetaxel via MRP1 stabilization.

ABSTRACT: Fibrous sheath-interacting protein 1 (FSIP1) functions centrally in breast carcinogenesis and progression, although its exact role remains to be clarified. Therefore, we sought to establish a correlation between the clinico-pathological features of breast cancer and FSIP1 expression in breast cancer tissues, as well as to validate its role in tumor progression and chemo-resistance. We analyzed FSIP1 expression in the breast cancer and para-tumor tissues by immunohistochemistry. We performed MTT, Caspase-Glo 3/7 Assay, Annexin V staining, wound healing and trans-well assays to evaluate cellular apoptosis, proliferation, migration and invasion in FSIP1 knockout and wild-type breast cancer cell lines. Additionally, we examined the effects of FSIP1 on docetaxel sensitivity in a nude mice model transplanted with control or FSIP1 knockout breast cancer cells, and also evaluate its role in tumor metastasis. FSIP1 and MRP1 interaction was determined by co-immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometry. We found that breast cancer cells and tissues consistently demonstrated elevated FSIP1 expressions, which correlated with poor overall survival. Notably, patients with high FSIP1 expression in their tumors undergoing docetaxel neoadjuvant chemotherapy had shorter disease-free survival. FSIP1 knockout in breast cancer cells significantly increased their sensitivity to docetaxel both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, FSIP1 bound to the multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1) and stabilized it, and knocking out FSIP1 decreased MRP1 expression and increased cellular docetaxel accumulation. In sum, FSIP1 promotes breast carcinogenesis and mediates docetaxel resistance, and may serve as a novel target in the development of breast cancer therapies.

Project description:HORMA domain‑containing protein 1 (HORMAD1), is normally expressed only in the germline, but is frequently re‑activated in human triple‑negative breast cancer (TNBC); however, its function in TNBC is largely unknown. In the present study, the expression and biological significance of HORMAD1 in human TNBC was evaluated. Bioinformatics analysis and reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR were used to evaluate HORMAD1 expression in datasets and cell lines. HORMAD1 protein expression was detected in TNBC samples using immunohistochemical assays, and the effect of HORMAD1 on cell proliferation was determined using Cell Counting Kit‑8, plate colony formation and standard growth curve assays. Cell cycle, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and apoptosis analyses were conducted using flow cytometry. The activity of caspases was measured using caspase activity assay kit. The levels of key apoptosis regulators and autophagy markers were detected by western blot analysis. TNBC cell survival and apoptosis were not influenced by small interfering RNA targeting HORMAD1 alone; however, HORMAD1 knockdown enhanced autophagy and docetaxel (Doc)‑induced apoptosis, compared with the control group. Furthermore, higher ROS levels and caspase‑3, ‑8 and ‑9 activity were detected in MDA‑MB‑436 TNBC cells with HORMAD1 knockdown upon exposure to Doc. The levels of the induced DNA damage marker γH2AX were also higher, while those of the DNA repair protein RAD51 were lower in TNBC cells with HORMAD1 knockdown compared with the controls. Furthermore, the expression of the autophagy marker P62 was enhanced in MDA‑MB‑231 cells in response to HORMAD1 overexpression. Notably, Doc‑induced apoptosis was similarly increased by both HORMAD1 overexpression and treatment with the autophagy inhibitor, 3‑methyladenine (3MA); however, the Doc‑induced increase in autophagy was not inhibited by 3MA. The present data indicated that HORMAD1 was involved in autophagy and that the inhibition of autophagy can partially enhance the induction of apoptosis by Doc. The role of HORMAD1 in the DNA damage tolerance of tumor cells may be the main reason for Doc resistance; hence, HORMAD1 could be an important therapeutic target in TNBC.
