Adenylyl Cyclase Type 8 Overexpression Impairs Phosphorylation-Dependent Orai1 Inactivation and Promotes Migration in MDA-MB-231 Breast Cancer Cells.

ABSTRACT: Orai1 plays a major role in store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells. This channel is inactivated via different mechanisms, including protein kinase C (PKC) and protein kinase A (PKA)-dependent phosphorylation at Ser-27 and Ser-30 or Ser-34, respectively, which shapes the Ca2+ responses to agonists. The Ca2+ calmodulin-activated adenylyl cyclase type 8 (AC8) was reported to interact directly with Orai1, thus mediating a dynamic interplay between the Ca2+- and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent signaling pathways. Here, we show that the breast cancer cell lines MCF7 and MDA-MB-231 exhibit enhanced expression of Orai1 and AC8 as compared to the non-tumoral breast epithelial MCF10A cell line. In these cells, AC8 interacts with the Orai1? variant in a manner that is not regulated by Orai1 phosphorylation. AC8 knockdown in MDA-MB-231 cells, using two different small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), attenuates thapsigargin (TG)-induced Ca2+ entry and also Ca2+ influx mediated by co-expression of Orai1 and the Orai1-activating small fragment (OASF) of STIM1 (stromal interaction molecule-1). Conversely, AC8 overexpression enhances SOCE, as well as Ca2+ entry, in cells co-expressing Orai1 and OASF. In MDA-MB-231 cells, we found that AC8 overexpression reduces the Orai1 phosphoserine content, thus suggesting that AC8 interferes with Orai1 serine phosphorylation, which takes place at residues located in the AC8-binding site. Consistent with this, the subset of Orai1 associated with AC8 in naïve MDA-MB-231 cells is not phosphorylated in serine residues in contrast to the AC8-independent Orai1 subset. AC8 expression knockdown attenuates migration of MCF7 and MDA-MB-231 cells, while this maneuver has no effect in the MCF10A cell line, which is likely attributed to the low expression of AC8 in these cells. We found that AC8 is required for FAK (focal adhesion kinase) phosphorylation in MDA-MB-231 cells, which might explain its role in cell migration. Finally, we found that AC8 is required for TNBC cell proliferation. These findings indicate that overexpression of AC8 in breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells impairs the phosphorylation-dependent Orai1 inactivation, a mechanism that might support the enhanced ability of these cells to migrate.

Project description:Since bone metastatic breast cancer is an incurable disease, causing significant morbidity and mortality, understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms would be highly valuable. Here, we describe in vitro and in vivo evidence for the importance of serine biosynthesis in the metastasis of breast cancer to bone. We first characterized the bone metastatic propensity of the MDA-MB-231(SA) cell line variant as compared to the parental MDA-MB-231 cells by radiographic and histological observations in the inoculated mice. Genome-wide gene expression profiling of this isogenic cell line pair revealed that all the three genes involved in the L-serine biosynthesis pathway, phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH), phosphoserine aminotransferase 1 (PSAT1), and phosphoserine phosphatase (PSPH) were upregulated in the highly metastatic variant. This pathway is the primary endogenous source for L-serine in mammalian tissues. Consistently, we observed that the proliferation of MDA-MB-231(SA) cells in serine-free conditions was dependent on PSAT1 expression. In addition, we observed that L-serine is essential for the formation of bone resorbing human osteoclasts and may thus contribute to the vicious cycle of osteolytic bone metastasis. High expression of PHGDH and PSAT1 in primary breast cancer was significantly associated with decreased relapse-free and overall survival of patients and malignant phenotypic features of breast cancer. In conclusion, high expression of serine biosynthesis genes in metastatic breast cancer cells and the stimulating effect of L-serine on osteoclastogenesis and cancer cell proliferation indicate a functionally critical role for serine biosynthesis in bone metastatic breast cancer and thereby an opportunity for targeted therapeutic interventions. Parental MDA-MB-231 cells and MDA-MB-231(SA) cells were cultured in cell culture flasks. RNA was isolated in order to compare the gene expression profiles of these cell variants.

Project description:Breast cancer remains a leading cause of death in women worldwide. Although breast cancer therapies have greatly advanced in recent years, many patients still develop tumour recurrence and metastasis, and eventually succumb to the disease due to chemoresistance. Citral has been reported to show cytotoxic effect on various cancer cell lines. However, the potential of citral to specifically target the drug resistant breast cancer cells has not yet been tested, which was the focus of our current study.The cytotoxic activity of citral was first tested on MDA-MB-231 cells in vitro by MTT assay. Subsequently, spheroids of MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells were developed and treated with citral at different concentrations. Doxorubicin, cisplatin and tamoxifen were used as positive controls to evaluate the drug resistance phenotype of MDA-MB-231 spheroids. In addition, apoptosis study was performed using AnnexinV/7AAD flowcytometry. Aldefluor assay was also carried out to examine whether citral could inhibit the ALDH-positive population, while the potential mechanism of the effect of citral was carried out by using quantitative real time- PCR followed by western blotting analysis.Citral was able to inhibit the growth of the MDA-MB-231 spheroids when compared to a monolayer culture of MDA-MB-231 cells at a lower IC50 value. To confirm the inhibition of spheroid self-renewal capacity, the primary spheroids were then cultured to additional passages in the absence of citral. A significant reduction in the number of secondary spheroids were formed, suggesting the reduction of self-renewal capacity of these aldehyde dehydrogenase positive (ALDH+) drug resistant spheroids. Moreover, the AnnexinV/7AAD results demonstrated that citral induced both early and late apoptotic changes in a dose-dependent manner compared to the vehicle control. Furthermore, citral treated spheroids showed lower cell renewal capacity compared to the vehicle control spheroids in the mammosphere formation assay. Gene expression studies using quantitative real time PCR and Western blotting assays showed that citral was able to suppress the self-renewal capacity of spheroids and downregulate the Wnt/?-catenin pathway.The results suggest that citral could be a potential new agent which can eliminate drug-resistant breast cancer cells in a spheroid model via inducing apoptosis.
