Project description:CD44, an adhesion molecule that binds to extracellular matrix, primarily to hyaluronan (HA), has been implicated in cancer cell migration, invasion, and metastasis. CD44 has also recently been recognized as a marker for stem cells of several types of cancer. However, the roles of CD44 in the development of bone metastasis still remain unclear. To explore this issue, we established the MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells stably expressing short hairpin RNA against CD44.

Project description:We recently showed that inactivation of the WASF3/WAVE3 gene in breast cancer cells results in loss of cell motility and invasion in vitro and metastasis in vivo. To obtain a better understanding of molecular mechanisms of action of WASF3, we have established the stable WASF3 knockdown MDA-MB-231 cells using shRNA strategy. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression after silencing WASF3 and identified distinct classes of up or down-regulated genes associated with breast cancer cell migration and motility The three stable WASF3 knockdown single clones and three control clones were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. To identify altered gene expression patterns in the knockdown cells, we compared gene expression levels between three different knockdown and three different control clones.

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. Total of two samples. No replicates.

Project description:Bone sialoprotein (BSP) has become a target in breast cancer research as it is associated with tumor progression and metastasis. The mechanisms underlying the regulation of BSP expression have been largely elusive. Given that BSP is involved in the homing of cancer cells in bone metastatic niches, we addressed regulatory effects of proteolytic cleavage and extracellular matrix components on BSP expression and distribution in cell culture models. Therefore, MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells were kept in 2D and 3D spheroid cultures and exposed to basement membrane extract in the presence or absence of matrix metalloproteinase 9 or the non-polar protease, dispase. Confocal imaging of immunofluorescence samples stained with different antibodies against human BSP demonstrated a strong inducing effect of basement membrane extract on anti-BSP immunofluorescence. Similarly, protease incubation led to acute upregulation of anti-BSP immunofluorescence signals, which was blocked by cycloheximide, suggesting de novo formation of BSP. In summary, our data show that extracellular matrix components play an important function in regulating BSP expression and hint at mechanisms for the formation of bone-associated metastasis in breast cancer that might involve local control of BSP levels by extracellular matrix degradation and release of growth factors.

Project description:Breast cancer is an important worldwide public health concern. The incidence rate of breast cancer increases every year. The primary cause of death is metastasis, a process by which cancer cells spread from a primary site to secondary organs. MicroRNAs (miRs/miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that control gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. Dysregulation of certain miRNAs is involved in carcinogenesis, cancer cell proliferation and metastasis. Therefore, the present study assessed miRNAs associated with breast cancer metastasis using two breast cancer cell lines, the low-metastatic MCF-7 and the highly metastatic MDA-MB-231. miRNA array analysis of both cell lines indicated that 46 miRNAs were differentially expressed when compared between the two cell lines. A total of 16 miRNAs were upregulated in MDA-MB-231 compared with MCF-7 cells, which suggested that their expression levels may be associated with the highly invasive phenotype of MDA-MB-231 cells. Among these miRNAs, miR-222-3p was selected for further study and its expression was confirmed by reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). Under both non-adherent and adherent culture conditions, the expression levels of miR-222-3p in the MDA-MB-231 cell line were higher than those noted in the MCF-7 cell line under the same conditions. Suppression of endogenous miR-222-3p expression in MDA-MB-231 cells using a miR-222-3p inhibitor resulted in a 20-40% reduction in proliferation, and a ~30% reduction in migration, which suggested that the aggressive phenotype of MDA-MB-231 cells was partly regulated by miR-222-3p. Bioinformatic analysis of miR-222-3p using TargetScan 8.0, miRDB and PicTar identified 25 common mRNA targets, such as cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1B, ADP-ribosylation factor 4, iroquois homeobox 5 and Bcl2 modifying factor. The results of the present study indicated that miR-222-3p was potentially associated with the proliferation and migratory ability of the MDA-MB-231 cell line.

Project description:The data here is related to the article, "Curcumin enhances poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor sensitivity to chemotherapy in breast cancer cells" (Y.E Choi, and E. Park, 2015) [1]. The article shows that curcumin, as a natural bioactive compound, enhanced DNA damage response and induced cell death in MDA-MB-231 cells [1]. This data includes that breast cancer cells, MDA-MB-231 respond to DNA damage after UV irradiation, post to resveratrol treatment. The data shows that resveratrol treatment results in reduction of S-phase cell cycle and induction of γ-H2AX, which is a hallmark of DNA damage after UV irradiation in breast cancer cells, MDA-MB-231. Moreover, resveratrol sensitizes breast cancer cells to respond to UV treatment as a natural bioactive compound.

Project description:Gene-level and exon-level analysis of gene expression in MDA-MB-231 cells that stably express control shRNA or integrin α3-targeting shRNA. The laminin-332-binding integrin α3b1 is expressed highly in many breast cancer cells, but its roles in regulating gene expression programs that promote breast cancer progression have not been explored. In order to identify genes that are regulated by α3b1 in human breast cancer cells, we used a lentiviral approach to express an α3-targeting shRNA to suppress integrin α3b1 in MDA-MB-231 cells, and we identified subsequent changes in gene expression and alternate exon useage. We used the Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0 ST platform to analyze biological replicates of MDA-MB-231 cells that were transduced with lentivirus to stably express either control shRNA or α3-targeting shRNA. Array data was processed by Affymetrix Exon Array Computational Tool.

Project description:BackgroundEarlier, we have identified PTOV1 as a novel interactome of PIN1 in PC-3 cells. This study aims to explore the functional similarity and the common role of both genes in breast cancer cell proliferation.MethodsCTG, crystal violet assay, clonogenic assay, wound healing assay, cell cycle analysis, Hoechst staining and ROS measurement were performed to assess cell viability, colony forming potential, cell cycle arrest, nuclear condensation and ROS production after knocking down of PTOV1 and PIN1 by siRNAs in MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells. CO-IP, qPCR and western blot were performedto study interaction, transcriptional and translational regulation of both genes.ResultsKnockdown of PTOV1 and PIN1 inhibited the cell proliferation, colony formation, migration, cell cycle, and induced nuclear condensation as well as ROS production. Interaction of PTOV1 and PIN1 was validated by Co-IP in MDA-MB-231 cells. Genes involved in cell proliferation, migration, cell cycle, and apoptosis were regulated by PIN1 and PTOV1. PTOV1 knockdown inhibited Bcl-2, Bcl-xL and inducedBAX, LC3 and Beclin-1expression. Overexpression of PIN1 increased the expression of PTOV1. Knockdown of both genes inhibited the expression of cyclin D1, c-Myc, and β-catenin.ConclusionsPTOV1 and PIN1 interact and exert oncogenic role in MDA-MB-231 cells by sharing the similar expression profile at transcriptional and translational level which can be a promising hub for therapeutic target.
