Project description:Cancer forms specialized microenvironmental niches that promote local invasion and colonization. Engrafted patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) locally invade and colonize naïve stroma in mice while enabling unambiguous molecular discrimination of human proteins in the tumor from mouse proteins in the microenvironment. To characterize how patient breast tumors form a niche and educate naïve stroma, subcutaneous breast cancer PDXs were globally profiled by species-specific quantitative proteomics. Regulation of PDX stromal proteins by breast tumors was extensive, with 35% of the stromal proteome altered by tumors consistently across different animals and passages. Differentially regulated proteins in the stroma clustered into six signatures, which included both known and previously unappreciated contributors to tumor invasion and colonization. Stromal proteomes were coordinately regulated; however, the sets of proteins altered by each tumor were highly distinct. Integrated analysis of tumor and stromal proteins, a comparison made possible in these xenograft models, indicated that the known hallmarks of cancer contribute pleiotropically to establishing and maintaining the microenvironmental niche of the tumor. Education of the stroma by the tumor is therefore an intrinsic property of breast tumors that is highly individualized, yet proceeds by consistent, nonrandom, and defined tumor-promoting molecular alterations.

Project description:Breast cancer is a heterogeneous collection of disease arising from the breast with distinct molecular and phenotypic features. Certain subsets of patients have tumors that are particularly difficult-to-treat, which include triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), metastatic/recurrent disease and rare histological variants. To delineate the underlying biology and identify therapeutic candidates for these patients, a series of 37 breast cancer patient-derived xenografts (PDX) from both chemo-naïve and pre-treated specimens was generated from 81 transplant attempts. Whole-genome and transcriptome sequencing revealed marked fidelity of the molecular landscape for the majority of PDXs in comparison to parental tumors. Reverse-phase protein array analysis of PDXs further identified potential therapeutic targets. Metastatic potential varied between PDXs, where low-penetrance lung micrometastases was the most common pattern of dissemination and observed in 34.5% of models. Three PDXs recapitulated the metastatic localization seen in the corresponding patients, including two lines with high-frequency metastases to multiple vital organ systems, while another PDX displayed tropism to the skull-base. Chemosensitivity profiling was performed in vivo with standard-of-care agents (doxorubicin, cisplatin, gemcitabine or paclitaxel), where multi-drug chemoresistance was found in 60.0% of PDXs and 64.7% of responses were concordant with pre-engraftment responses observed in the patient. Consolidating chemogenomic data identified potentially actionable features in 97.2% of PDXs, and marked regressions were seen in vivo when a subset of these underwent proof-of-concept functional studies. This included FGFR inhibitor sensitivity in a FGFR1-amplified lobular carcinoma, mTOR inhibitor sensitivity in a recurrent neuroendocrine breast cancer with proteomic evidence of mTOR/PI3K activation, and platinum sensitivity in a TNBC with BRCA1 germline mutation predicted as benign. Together, this clinically-annotated PDX library with comprehensive molecular and phenotypic profiling serves as a resource for both discovery and validation preclinical studies on difficult-to-treat breast tumors.

Project description:Tumor associated miRNAs in hereditary breast cancer. In this study we investigated the role of miRNAs in hereditary breast tumors comparing with normal breast tissue. Global miRNA expression profiling was performed on 22 hereditary breast tumors and 15 non-tumoral breast tissues. We identified 19 miRNAs differentially expressed, most of them down-regulated in tumors. An important proportion of deregulated miRNAs in hereditary tumors were previously identified commonly deregulated in sporadic breast tumors. Our results identify miRNAs associated to hereditary breast cancer, as well as miRNAs commonly miss-expressed in hereditary and sporadic tumors, suggesting common underlying mechanisms of tumor progression. In addition, we provide evidence that KRAS is a target of miR-30c, and that this miRNA suppresses breast cancer cell growth potentially through inhibition of KRAS signaling.

Project description:Cancer stem cells (CSCs) comprise a small subpopulation of undifferentiated cancer cells with the ability to self-renew and give rise to the heterogeneous cancer cell lineages that form tumorous masses. Thus, tumor eradication may be greatly improved by specifically targeting CSCs, as they exhibit resistance to conventional therapy. To gain insight into the unique biology of CSCs, we developed patient-derived xenograft (PDX) tumors from ER-negative breast cancer patient tissue from which we isolated mammospheres, a method known to enrich for cells with CSC-properties. An unbiased, comparative global proteomic analysis using label-free mass spectrometry was performed on the patient tumor tissues and corresponding PDX tumors and mammospheres. Good concordance between the proteome profiles of patient tumor tissue and corresponding PDX tumors was observed. However, lower abundance of immune- and extracellular matrix-related proteins and higher abundance of proteins associated with cell-to-cell adhesion including desmosome proteins and β-catenin were observed in PDX versus patient tumors. Interestingly, analysis of proteins elevated in mammospheres vs. PDX tumors identified an enrichment of proteins associated with de novo cholesterol synthesis. The clinical relevance of increased cholesterol biosynthesis protein expression was verified in a large gene expression data set of clinical breast cancers showing correlation with shorter relapse-free survival. RNA interference and chemical inhibition of the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway reduced mammosphere formation and growth of CSCs derived from PDX tumors and cancer cell lines. Our findings identify the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway as central for CSC growth and a potential therapeutic target for CSC as well as providing an additional mechanistic explanation for the observed benefit of statins in breast cancer treatment.

Project description:Resistance to endocrine treatments and CDK4/6 inhibitors is considered a near-inevitability in most patients with estrogen receptor positive breast cancers (ER + BC). By genomic and metabolomics analyses of patients' tumours, metastasis-derived patient-derived xenografts (PDX) and isogenic cell lines we demonstrate that a fraction of metastatic ER + BC is highly reliant on oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Treatment by the OXPHOS inhibitor IACS-010759 strongly inhibits tumour growth in multiple endocrine and palbociclib resistant PDX. Mutations in the PIK3CA/AKT1 genes are significantly associated with response to IACS-010759. At the metabolic level, in vivo response to IACS-010759 is associated with decreased levels of metabolites of the glutathione, glycogen and pentose phosphate pathways in treated tumours. In vitro, endocrine and palbociclib resistant cells show increased OXPHOS dependency and increased ROS levels upon IACS-010759 treatment. Finally, in ER + BC patients, high expression of OXPHOS associated genes predict poor prognosis. In conclusion, these results identify OXPHOS as a promising target for treatment resistant ER + BC patients.
