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:To determine the effect ALDH1A3 expression on global gene expression in MDA-MB-231 cells and MDA-MB-468 cells In MDA-MB-231 cells, ALDH1A3 was overexperssed (have low endogenous levels of ALDH1A3) and compared to MSCV empty vector control. In MDA-MB-468 cells that have high endogenous levels of ALDH1A3, ALDH1A3 expresion was reduced with ALDH1A3 shRNA1 and compared to scramble shRNA control.

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:Expression of the voltage gated proton channel (Hv1) as identified by immunocytochemistry has been reported previously in breast cancer tissue. Increased expression of HV1 was correlated with poor prognosis and decreased overall and disease-free survival but the mechanism of its involvement in the disease is unknown. Here we present electrophysiological recordings of HV1 channel activity, confirming its presence and function in the plasma membrane of a breast cancer cell line, MDA-MB-231. With western blotting we identify significant levels of HV1 expression in 3 out of 8 "triple negative" breast cancer cell lines (estrogen, progesterone, and HER2 receptor expression negative). We examine the function of HV1 in breast cancer using MDA-MB-231 cells as a model by suppressing the expression of HV1 using shRNA (knock-down; KD) and by eliminating HV1 using CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing (knock-out; KO). Surprisingly, these two approaches produced incongruous effects. Knock-down of HV1 using shRNA resulted in slower cell migration in a scratch assay and a significant reduction in H2O2 release. In contrast, HV1 Knock-out cells did not show reduced migration or H2O2 release. HV1 KO but not KD cells showed an increased glycolytic rate accompanied by an increase in p-AKT (phospho-AKT, Ser473) activity. The expression of CD171/LCAM-1, an adhesion molecule and prognostic indicator for breast cancer, was reduced in HV1 KO cells. When we compared MDA-MB-231 xenograft growth rates in immunocompromised mice, tumors from HV1 KO cells grew less than WT in mass, with lower staining for the Ki-67 marker for cell proliferation rate. Therefore, deletion of HV1 expression in MDA-MB-231 cells limits tumor growth rate. The limited growth thus appears to be independent of oxidant production by NADPH oxidase molecules and to be mediated by cell adhesion molecules. Although HV1 KO and KD affect certain cellular mechanisms differently, both implicate HV1-mediated pathways for control of tumor growth in the MDA-MB-231 cell line.

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:In the past decades, altered Follistatin‑like 1 (FSTL1) expression has been documented in a variety of cancers, while its functional roles are poorly understood. Particularly in breast cancer, the expression of FSTL1 and its signaling pathway remain to be determined. In the present study, an elevated FSTL1 expression and a supressed cell proliferation were detected in a specific brain metastatic cell line MDA‑MB‑231‑BR (231‑BR), compared with its parental cell line MDA‑MB‑231. However, this protein was hardly detected in the other three breast cancer cell lines. Next, lentiviral vectors encoding FSTL1 or FSTL1 specific shRNAs were used to overexpress or knock down FSTL1 in MDA‑MB‑231 or 231‑BR, respectively (MDA‑MB‑231FSTL1 or 231‑BRsh FSTL1). Results showed that overexpression of FSTL1 inhibited MDA‑MB‑231 cell proliferation, while knockdown of FSTL1 in 231‑BR cells promotes cell proliferation, compared with their corresponding control groups. These results were further confirmed in nude mouse xenografts. The tumor volume in 231‑BR cell-bearing mice was significantly smaller than that of MDA‑MB‑231 group, and reduction of tumor volume was detected in MDA‑MB‑231FSTL1 cell-bearing mice compared with the control group. Previous studies revealed that TGF‑β-Smad2/3 signaling pathway was activated in 231‑BR and MDA‑MB‑231FSTL1 cells, which may contribute to the inhibited cell proliferation. In addition, Smad3 knockdown could restore the inhibition of cell proliferation induced by FSTL1 overexpression in MDA‑MB‑231FSTL1 cells, indicating that the anti‑proliferative effect of FSTL1 overexpression may be associated with Smad3 involved TGF‑β signaling pathway regulation. This study identified FSTL1 as an inhibitor of cell proliferation in MDA‑MB‑231 and 231‑BR cell lines, which may provide new insights into the development and management of breast cancer.
