Identification of novel metastases-suppressor genes involved in breast cancer brain metastases (BCBM) formation

ABSTRACT: Initial screening for potential metastases suppressors down regulated by methylation was performed using breast cancer cell line models specific for site-specific metastasation. Gene expression profiling and qRT-PCR validations were conducted on tumor tissues from primary breast cancer (BC) and BCBM. CADM1 and RECK were further characterized for their methylation patterns and finally the protein expression of CADM1 was validated in a large number of BC and BCBM samples and correlated with clinico-pathologic parameters.

Identification of novel metastases-suppressor genes involved in breast cancer brain metastases (BCBM) formation

Project description:Initial screening for potential metastases suppressors down regulated by methylation was performed using breast cancer cell line models specific for site-specific metastasation. Gene expression profiling and qRT-PCR validations were conducted on tumor tissues from primary breast cancer (BC) and BCBM. CADM1 and RECK were further characterized for their methylation patterns and finally the protein expression of CADM1 was validated in a large number of BC and BCBM samples and correlated with clinico-pathologic parameters. A subclone of MDA-MB-231, which has a high metastatic potential for the brain (MDA-MB-231 BR), was compared to the parental MDA-MB-231 WT and to a bone-seeking subclone (MDA-MB-231 SA) in order to find genes, which might be specifically involved in brain metastasis formation. The cell lines were treated with 5-Aza-2'-deoxycytidine in order to find genes potentially down regulated by methylation. The non-tumorigenic epithelial cell line MCF 10A was used to control for stress response after the treatment with 5-Aza-2'-deoxycytidine.

Targeted RNA-seq signature of Breast Cancer Circulating Tumor Cells correlates with occurrence of bone-only metastases

Project description:Bone is the most frequent site of metastases from breast cancer (BC), although no biomarkers are yet available to predict the risk of skeletal dissemination. Here, we attempted to identify a gene signature correlated with bone metastasis (BM) onset in circulating tumor cells (CTCs) isolated from 40 metastatic BC patients, grouped according to their metastasis sites at the time of enrollment, namely “BM” (bone-only), “ES” (extra-skeletal) or “BM+ES” (bone and extra-skeletal). A 134-gene panel, derived from an extensive literature review, was validated on sub-clones of the MDA-MB-231 BC cell line with variable organotropism and then applied to CTC groups for targeted RNA sequencing. No correlation was found between CTC number and clinico-pathologic variables, whereas 31 differentially expressed genes emerged from “BM” and “ES” CTC comparison. The putative prognostic meaning of the “top-10” most deregulated genes was finally explored and pointed out by employing an external BC dataset.

IL13Rα2 promotes the proliferative switch required for outgrowth of breast cancer brain metastases

Project description:The survival of women with brain metastases (BM) from breast cancer remains very poor, and more than 80% will die within a year of their diagnosis. Here we define the function of IL13Rα2 in outgrowth of breast cancer brain metastases (BCBM) in vitro and in vivo, and postulate IL13Rα2 as a suitable therapeutic target for BM. Experimental design: We performed IHC staining of IL13Rα2 in BCBM to define its prognostic value. Using inducible-shRNAs in TNBC and HER2+ breast-brain metastatic models we assessed IL13Rα2 function in vitro and in vivo. We performed RNAseq and functional studies to define the molecular mechanisms underlying IL13Rα2 function in BCBM. Results: High IL13Rα2 expression in BCBM predicted worse survival after BM diagnoses. IL13Rα2 was essential for cancer-cell survival, promoting proliferation while repressing invasion. IL13Rα2 KD resulted in repression of cell cycle and proliferation mediator Cyclin D2 and upregulation of Ephrin B1 signaling. Ephrin-B1 (i) promoted invasion of BC cells in vitro, (ii) marked micrometastasis and invasive fronts in BCBM, (iii) predicted shorter disease-free survival (DFS) and BM-free survival (BMFS) in breast primary tumors known to metastasize to the brain. In experimental metastases models, which bypass early tumor invasion, downregulation of IL13Rα2 prior or after tumor seeding and brain intravasation decreased BMs, suggesting that IL13Rα2 and a switch to a more proliferative phenotype is critical to BM outgrowth.

Molecular characterization of breast cancer circulating tumor cells (CTCs) associated with brain metastasis

Project description:The enumeration of EpCAM-positive circulating tumor cells (CTCs) has allowed clinicians to estimate the overall metastatic burden in breast cancer patients. However, a thorough understanding of CTCs associated with breast cancer brain metastasis (BCBM) is necessary for early identification and evaluation of treatment response to BCBM. In this study, we report that BCBM CTCs are enriched in a distinct sub-population of cells identifiable by their biomarker expression and mutational content. Here we report the discovery of a unique “CTC gene signature” that is distinct from primary breast cancer tissues. Further dissection of the CTC signature identified signaling pathways associated with BCBM CTCs that may play roles in potentiating BCBM.

Identification of novel metastases-suppressor genes involved in lung cancer brain metastases formation.

Project description:Initial screening for potential metastases suppressors down regulated by methylation was performed using lung cancer cell line models specific for site-specific metastasation. Gene expression profiling and qRT-PCR validations were conducted on tumor tissues from primary lung cancer (LC) and brain metastasis. HERC5 was further characterized for the methylation pattern. Three human lung cancer cell lines H1993, H1395 and were compared to the (SV40)-transformed human bronchial epithelial cell line BEAS-2B in order to find genes, which might be specifically involved in brain metastasis formation. The cell lines were treated with 5-Aza-2'-deoxycytidine in order to find genes potentially down regulated by methylation. The non-tumorigenic cell line BEAS-2B was used to control for stress response after the treatment with 5-Aza-2'-deoxycytidine.

RECK Controls Breast Cancer Metastasis by Modulating a Convergent, STAT3-dependent Neoangiogenic Switch

Project description:Metastasis leads to the majority of deaths in breast cancer patients. Here we investigated the molecular and biochemical signaling pathways altered by RECK, a major metastasis suppressor gene in breast cancer. We overexpressed RECK in 2 highly invasive cell lines and knocked-down RECK expression in 2 poorly invasive cell lines. IPA analysis of differentially expressed genes revealed IL-6, and IL8 signaling alteration with RECK pertubation. This lead us to discover that RECK suppresses metastasis and neoangiogenesis at secondary sites by inhibiting STAT3 dependent VEGF & uPA regulating. This finding is significant because it reveals the biology behind a major metastasis suppressor gene in cancer.

Identification of ALDH1A3 as a viable therapeutic target in breast cancer metastasis-initiating cells

Project description:The development of efficacious therapies targeting metastatic spread of breast cancer to the brain represents an unmet clinical need. Accordingly, an improved understanding of the molecular underpinnings of central nervous system spread and progression of breast cancer brain metastases (BCBM) is required. In this study, the clinical burden of disease in BCBM was investigated, as well as the role of aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A3 (ALDH1A3) in the metastatic cascade leading to BCBM development. Initial analysis of clinical survival trends for breast cancer and BCBM determined improvement of breast cancer survival rates, however this has failed to positively impact the prognostic milestones of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) brain metastases (BM). ALDH1A3 and a representative epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) gene signature (mesenchymal markers CD44, Vimentin) were compared in tumors derived from BM, lung metastases (LM) or bone metastases (BoM) of patients as well as mice post-injection of TNBC cells. Selective elevation of the EMT signature and ALDH1A3 were observed in BM, unlike LM and BoM, especially in the tumor edge. Furthermore, ALDH1A3 was determined to play a role in BCBM establishment via regulation of circulating tumor cell (CTC) adhesion and migration phases in the BCBM cascade. Validation through genetic and pharmacologic inhibition of ALDH1A3 via lentiviral shRNA knockdown and a novel small molecule inhibitor demonstrated selective inhibition of BCBM formation with prolonged survival of tumor-bearing mice. Given the survival benefits via targeting ALDH1A3, it may prove an effective therapeutic strategy for BCBM prevention and/or treatment.
