Project description:As an oncogene, use of HER2 vaccines in humans requires the development of HER2 immunotherapies with maximal immunologic potential, but minimal oncologic potential. To address these issues, we developed a recombinant adenoviral vector expressing a mutated HER2 inactivated for kinase function (Ad-HER2-ki). Ad-HER2-ki was highly expressed, but non-phosphorylated and elicited minimal transcription dysregulation in primary cells. In contrast, Ad-HER2-wt elicited a strong oncogenic signature associated with tumorigenesis. Experiment Overall Design: Early Passage Human Mammary Epithelial cells (HMECs) were serum starved for 36hrs. and infected at a MOI of 150 with either Ad-GFP, Ad-HER2-wt, or Ad-HER2-ki vectors. At 18 hpi, RNA was extracted and transcriptomes evaluated by microarray. Five samples were infected per virus treatment, each a completely separate biologic replicate.

Project description:Rho family small GTPases serve as molecular switches in the regulation of diverse cellular functions including actin cytoskeleton remodeling, cell migration, gene transcription, and cell proliferation. Importantly, Rho overexpression is frequently seen in many carcinomas. However, published studies have almost invariably utilized immortal or tumorigenic cell lines to study Rho GTPase functions and there are no studies on the potential of Rho small GTPase to overcome senescence checkpoints and induce preneoplastic transformation of human mammary epithelial cells (hMECs). We found that ectopic expression of wild-type RhoA as well as a constitutively-active RhoA mutant (G14V) in primary hMEC strains led to their immortalization and preneoplastic transformation. Significantly, RhoA-T37A mutant, known to be incapable of interacting with many well known Rho-effectors ,was also capable of immortalizing hMECs.Our results demonstrate that RhoA can induce the preneoplastic transformation of hMECs by altering multiple pathways linked cellular transformation and breast cancer. Through microarray analysis, we want to identify genes and pathways linked to RhoA induced hMECs immortalization.

Project description:Senescence is a permanent cell cycle arrest that occurs in response to cellular stress. Because senescent cells promote age-related disease, there has been considerable interest in defining the proteomic alterations in senescent cells. Because senescence differs greatly depending on cell type and senescence inducer, continued progress in the characterization of senescent cells is needed. Here, we analyzed primary human mammary epithelial cells (HMECs), a model system for aging, using mass spectrometry-based proteomics. By integrating data from replicative senescence, immortalization by telomerase reactivation, and drug-induced senescence, we identified a robust proteomic signature of HMEC senescence consisting of 77 upregulated and 36 downregulated proteins. This approach identified known biomarkers, such as downregulation of the nuclear lamina protein lamin-B1 (LMNB1), and novel upregulated proteins including the β-galactoside-binding protein galectin-7 (LGALS7). Gene ontology enrichment analysis demonstrated that senescent HMECs upregulated lysosomal proteins and downregulated RNA metabolic processes. We additionally integrated our proteomic signature of senescence with transcriptomic data from senescent HMECs to demonstrate that our proteomic signature can discriminate proliferating and senescent HMECs even at the transcriptional level. Taken together, our results demonstrate the power of proteomics to identify cell type-specific signatures of senescence and advance the understanding of senescence in primary HMECs.

Project description:Cytoplasmic localization of proline, glutamic acid, leucine-rich protein 1 (PELP1) is observed in ∼40% of women with invasive breast cancer. In mouse models, PELP1 overexpression in the mammary gland leads to premalignant lesions and eventually mammary tumors. In preliminary clinical studies, cytoplasmic localization of PELP1 was seen in 36% of women at high risk of developing breast cancer. Here, we investigated whether cytoplasmic PELP1 signaling promotes breast cancer initiation in models of immortalized human mammary epithelial cells (HMECs). Global gene expression analysis was performed on HMEC lines expressing vector control, PELP1-wt, or mutant PELP1 in which the nuclear localization sequence was altered, resulting in cytoplasmic localization of PELP1 (PELP1-cyto). Global gene expression analysis identified that PELP1-cyto expression in HMECs induced NF-κB signaling pathways. Western blotting analysis of PELP1-cyto HMECs showed up-regulation of inhibitor of κB kinase ϵ (IKKϵ) and increased phosphorylation of the NF-κB subunit RelB. To determine whether secreted factors produced by PELP1-cyto HMECs promote macrophage activation, THP-1 macrophages were treated with HMEC-conditioned medium (CM). PELP1-cyto CM induced changes in THP-1 gene expression as compared with control cell CM. Double conditioned medium (DCM) from the activated THP-1 cells was then applied to HMECs to determine whether paracrine signaling from PELP1-cyto-activated macrophages could in turn promote migration of HMECs. PELP1-cyto DCM induced robust HMEC migration, which was reduced in DCM from PELP1-cyto HMECs expressing IKKϵ shRNA. Our findings suggest that cytoplasmic localization of PELP1 up-regulates pro-tumorigenic IKKϵ and secreted inflammatory signals, which through paracrine macrophage activation regulates the migratory phenotype associated with breast cancer initiation.

Project description:Five molecular subtypes (Luminal A/B, HER2-enriched, Basal-like, and Claudin-low) with clinical implications have been identified. In this report, we evaluated molecular and phenotypic relationships of a large in vitro panel of human breast cancer cell lines (BCCLs), human mammary fibroblasts (HMFs) and human mammary epithelial cells (HMECs) with (1) breast tumors, (2) normal breast cell-enriched subpopulations and (3) human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC). First, by integrating genomic data of 337 breast samples with 93 cell lines we were able to identify all the intrinsic tumor subtypes in vitro, except for the Luminal A. Secondly, we observed that cell lines recapitulate the differentiation hierarchy observed in the mammary gland, with Claudin-low BCCLs and HMFs cells showing a stromal phenotype, HMECs showing a mammary stem cell/bipotent progenitor phenotype, Basal-like cells showing a luminal progenitor phenotype, and Luminal B cells showing a luminal phenotype. Thirdly, we identified Basal-like and highly migratory Claudin-low subpopulations of cells within a subset of triple-negative BCCLs (SUM149PT, HCC1143 and HCC38). Interestingly, both subpopulations within SUM149PT where found to have Tumor Initiating Cell (TIC) features, but the Basal-like subpopulation grew faster than the Claudin-low subpopulation. Finally, Claudin-low BCCLs were found to resemble the phenotype of hMSCs, whereas hESCs cells were found to have an epithelial phenotype without basal and luminal differentiation. The results presented here should help improve our understanding of the cell line model system through the appropriate pairing of cell lines with relevant in vivo tumor and normal cell counterparts. reference x sample
