Project description:MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells were injected orthotopiclly into mammary glands 4 of female NOD SCID mice 4-weeks after sub-cutaneous implantation of human femoral bone chips. Primary tumour, bone chips containing metastatic deposits and naive bone chips were isolated and mRNA analysed for gene expression to determine genetic signitures associated with breast cancer bone metastasis.

Project description:The goal of this study was to evaluate genes that are differentially expressed in the bone stroma when breast cancer metastasis are present. We focused our attention on bone stroma cells to understand how the dissemination and growth of tumor cells can impact on the bone environment. Moreover, we aimed to identify potential targets to inhibit the cross talk between cancer cells and tumor microenvironment in bone metastasis. MDA-MB 231 scp1833 breast cancer cell line were engineered to express luciferase and GFP, and injected in NOD-SCID mice by the intracardiac route to obtain bone metastasis. Tumor growth was monitored in-vivo by bioluminescence for 2 weeks. Endothelial cells and osteoblasts were isolated from the long bones of tumor-bearing and tumor-free mice to identify genes differentially expressed.

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: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.

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.
