Effect of enforced BMP4 expression on gene expression profile of 4T1.2 whole primary murine mammary tumours

ABSTRACT: BMP4 is down-regulated in metastatic human and murine mammary tumours. Here we determined the effect of ectopic mouse Bmp4 re-expression on global gene expression patterns in orthotopic primary mammary tumours in syngeneic Balb/c mice. Breast cancer is a major cause of cancer related death in women, due to the development of metastatic disease in vital organs. Metastasis can be facilitated by tumor induced MDSC, which requires understanding. We have confirmed that BMP4 is a potent suppressor of breast cancer metastasis, but for potential clinical application, it is important to understand how BMP4 acts to suppress metastasis. Here, we report one mechanism by which BMP4 can inhibit metastasis. Mice bearing highly metastatic mammary tumors present with elevated numbers of myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSC), the extent of which is markedly reduced upon exogenous BMP4 expression. Increased numbers of MDSC can also be induced directly by treatment with granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), leading to enhancement of metastasis. Both tumor-induced and G-CSF-induced MDSC can effectively suppress T cell activation and proliferation. BMP4 acts to reduce the expression and secretion of G-CSF through inhibition of NFkB activity in several human and mouse tumor lines. Since MDSC in breast cancer patients are correlated with poor prognosis, BMP4 treatment offers a potential new therapeutic strategy for progressive breast disease.

Loss of tumor-derived SMAD4 enhances primary tumor growth but not metastasis following BMP4 signalling

Project description:We have reported previously that in preclinical models, BMP4 is a potent inhibitor of breast cancer metastasis and that high BMP4 protein levels predict favourable patient outcome. Here, we investigated the requirement for functional SMAD4 in mediating the anti-metastatic response of BMP4, given reports of promotion of metastasis by BMP4 in cancers where SMAD4 is frequently deleted. BMP4-induced inhibition of metastasis does not require functional SMAD4 in tumor cells. However, tumor cell intrinsic signalling using a constitutively active BMP receptor does require functional SMAD4 to suppress metastasis, thus implicating BMP4 mediated paracrine signalling as a contributor to the inhibition of metastasis.

Comparative analysis of monocytes from healthy donors, patients with metastatic breast cancer, sepsis or tuberculosis.

Project description:Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are highly immunosuppressive myeloid cells, which increase in cancer patients. The molecular mechanism behind their generation and function is unclear. Whereas granulocytic-MDSCs correlate with poor overall survival in breast cancer, the presence and relevance of monocytic-MDSCs (Mo-MDSCs) is unknown. Here we report for the first time an enrichment of functional blood Mo-MDSCs in breast cancer patients before they acquire a typical Mo-MDSC surface phenotype. A clear population of Mo-MDSCs with the typical cell surface phenotype (CD14+HLA-DRlow/-Co-receptorlow/-) increased significantly first during disease progression and correlated to metastasis to lymph nodes and visceral organs. Furthermore, monocytes, comprising the Mo-MDSC population, from patients with metastatic breast cancer resemble the reprogrammed immunosuppressive monocytes in patients with severe infections, both by their surface and functional phenotype but also at their molecular gene expression profile. Our data suggest that monitoring the Mo-MDSC levels in breast cancer patients may represent a novel and simple biomarker for assessing disease progression. Peripheral blood monocytes were isolated using magnetic cell sorting from 4 patients with metastatic breast cancer, 3 healthy controls, 3 patients with sepsis and 3 patients with active tuberculosis were immediately frozen at -80C in TRIZOL.

Interferon Regulatory Factor-8, an Integral Determinant of Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cell Subset Development

Project description:Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) are a major barrier to anticancer responses. Although much is known about how MDSC promote tumor progression, little is known about how they develop. We hypothesized that MDSC develop as a consequence of tumor-induced downregulation of interferon regulatory factor-8 (IRF-8), a key myeloid developmental transcription factor. We showed that: 1) IRF8-deficiency in mice generated myeloid populations highly homologous to tumor-induced MDSC; 2) IRF-8 overexpression in mice reduced MDSC accumulation and retarded tumor growth; 3) MDSC-inducing factors, G-CSF or GM-CSF, facilitated IRF-8 downregulation via STAT3- or STAT5-dependent pathways, respectively; and 4) IRF-8 levels in MDSC-like subsets of breast cancer patients were depressed compared to healthy donors. Altogether, our data implicate IRF-8 as a novel MDSC-dependent transcription factor. Splenic CD11b+Gr-1high cell populations from tumor-bearing mice, IRF8 knockout mice or non-tumor-bearing control mice were purified in two independent experiments by flow cytometry (> 97% purity) and subjected to whole genome expression profiling using Illumina microarrays.

SPR509: Lung metastasis

Project description:Determine gene expression differences between normal, metastatic and non-metastatic mouse lung tissue. Priming of the organ-specific premetastatic sites is thought to be an important yet incompletely understood step during metastasis. In this study, we show that the metastatic tumors we examined overexpress granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), which expands and mobilizes Ly6G+Ly6C+ granulocytes and facilitates their subsequent homing at distant organs even before the arrival of tumor cells. Moreover, G-CSF-mobilized Ly6G+Ly6C+ cells produce the Bv8 protein, which has been implicated in angiogenesis and mobilization of myeloid cells. Anti-G-CSF or anti-Bv8 antibodies significantly reduced lung metastasis. Transplantation of Bv8 null fetal liver cells into lethally irradiated hosts also reduced metastasis. We identified an unexpected role for Bv8: the ability to stimulate tumor cell migration through activation of one of the Bv8 receptors, prokineticin receptor (PKR)-1. Finally, we show that administration of recombinant G-CSF is sufficient to increase the numbers of Ly6G+Ly6C+ cells in organ-specific metastatic sites and results in enhanced metastatic ability of several tumors. 67NR and 4T1mouse breast carcinoma cell lines were injected into fourth mammary fat pad; lung tissue was collected when tumor reached volume of 50mm3. RNA was extracted using Qiagen kit.

Myeloid-derived suppressor cell development is regulated by a STAT/IRF-8 axis

Development and characterization of a clinically relevant model of breast cancer brain metastasis

Project description:Breast cancer brain metastasis remains largely incurable. While several mouse models have been developed to investigate the genes and mechanisms regulating breast cancer brain metastasis, these models often lack clinical relevance since they require the use of immune-compromised mice and/or are poorly metastatic to brain from the mammary gland. We describe the development and characterization of an aggressive brain metastatic variant of the 4T1 syngeneic model (4T1Br4) that spontaneously metastasises to lung, bone and brain but is selectively more metastatic to the brain from the mammary gland than parental 4T1 tumors. The 4T1Br4 model will provide a clinically relevant tool to evaluate novel therapies against brain metastasis.

ABCC5 supports osteoclast formation and promotes breast cancer metastasis to bone

Project description:Bone is the primary site of breast cancer metastasis and complications associated with bone metastases can lead to a significantly decreased quality of life in these patients. Thus, it is essential to gain a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms that underlie the emergence and growth of breast cancer skeletal metastases. Methods: To search for novel molecular mediators that influence breast cancer bone metastasis, we generated gene expression profiles from laser capture micro-dissected trephine biopsies of both breast cancer bone metastases and primary breast tumors that metastasized to bone. Bioinformatics analysis identified genes that are differentially expressed in breast cancer bone metastases compared to primary mammary tumors. Results: ABCC5, an ATP-dependent transporter, was found to be overexpressed in breast cancer osseous metastases relative to primary mammary tumors. In addition, ABCC5 was significantly up-regulated in human and mouse breast cancer cell lines with high bone-metastatic potential. Stable knockdown of ABCC5 significant reduced bone metastatic burden and osteolytic bone destruction in mice. The decrease in osteolysis was further associated with diminished osteoclast numbers. Conclusions: Our data, for the first time, suggests that ABCC5 functions as a mediator of breast cancer skeletal metastasis. ABCC5 expression in breast cancer cells is important for the efficient bone resorption mediated by osteoclasts. Hence, ABCC5 may be a potential therapeutic target for breast cancer bone metastasis. primary breast tumors vs. bone trephine biopsies
