Prolonged cadmium exposure alters benign uterine fibroid cell behavior, extracellular matrix components, and TGFB signaling [CanPath]

Project description:In our lab, Cadmium treatment of human fibroid cells induced a cancer phenotype and altered glycogen metabolism. In this study we treated fibroid cells with cadmium continuously for 2 or 6 months. Cancer progression and pathway gene expression were investigated using NanoString Technologies.

Prolonged cadmium exposure alters benign uterine fibroid cell behavior, extracellular matrix components, and TGFB signaling.

Project description:The heavy metal Cadmium (Cd), a widespread environmental contaminant, poses serious hazards to human health and is considered a metallohormone and carcinogen. In women with uterine fibroids, there is a significant association between blood Cd levels and increased fibroid tumor size. The aim of this study was to determine if benign human uterine leiomyoma (fibroid) cells could be malignantly transformed in vitro by continuous Cd exposure and, if so, explore a molecular mechanism by which this could occur. We found when fibroid cells were exposed to 10 µM CdCl2 for 8 weeks, a robust and fast-growing Cd-Resistant Leiomyoma (CR-LM) cell culture was established. The CR-LM cells formed viable colonies in soft agar and had increased cytoplasmic glycogen aggregates, enhanced cell motility, a higher percentage of cells in G2/M phase, and increased expression of the proliferation marker Ki-67. NanoString analysis showed downregulation of genes encoding for extracellular matrix (ECM) components, such as collagens, fibronectins, laminins, and SLRP family proteins, whereas genes involved in ECM degradation (MMP1, MMP3, and MMP10) were significantly upregulated. A volcano plot showed that the top differentially genes favored cancer progression. Functional analysis by ingenuity pathway analysis predicted a significant inhibition of TGFB1 signaling, leading to enhanced proliferation and attenuated fibrosis. Prolonged Cd exposure altered phenotypic characteristics and dysregulated genes in fibroid cells predicative of progression towards a cancer phenotype. Therefore, continuous Cd exposure alters the benign characteristics of fibroid cells in vitro, and Cd exposure could possibly pose a health hazard for women with uterine fibroids.

The effects of the prolonged Cd exposure on gene expression changes in in Uterine Leiomyoma Cells [cancer pathways]

Project description:The heavy metal Cadmium (Cd), a widespread environmental contaminant, poses serious hazards to human health, and is considered a metallohormone and carcinogen. In women with uterine fibroids, there is a significant association between blood Cd levels and fibroid tumor size. The aim of this study was to determine if benign uterine fibroid cells could be malignantly transformed in vitro by continuous Cd exposure, and if so, explore a molecular mechanism by which this could occur. We found when fibroid cells were exposed to 10 µM CdCl2 for 8 weeks, a robust and fast-growing Cd- Resistant Leiomyoma (CR-LM) culture was established. The CR-LM cells showed the ability to form viable colonies in soft agar, increased glycogen aggregates, enhanced cell motility, a higher percentage of cells in G2/M phase, and increased expression of the proliferation marker Ki-67. NanoString analysis showed downregulation of genes encoding for ECM components, such as collagens, fibronectins, laminins, and SLRP family proteins; whereas, genes involved in ECM degradation (MMP1, MMP3 and MMP10) were significantly upregulated. A volcano plot showed that the direction of expression changes of the top differentially genes favored cancer progression. Functional analysis by IPA predicted a significant inhibition of TGFβ signaling, leading to enhanced proliferation and attenuated fibrosis. Prolonged Cd exposure altered phenotypic characteristics and dysregulated genes in fibroid cells predicative of progression towards a cancer phenotype. Therefore, continuous Cd exposures changes the phenotype of benign fibroid cells in vitro and could possibly pose a health risk for women with uterine fibroids.

Transcription profiling of human Gene Expression in Uterine Smooth Muscle Tumors (including normal myometrium, benign uterine leiomyoma, malignant uterine and extra-uterine leiomyosarcoma)

Project description:Comparison of Gene Expression in Uterine Smooth Muscle Tumors (including normal myometrium, benign uterine leiomyoma, malignant uterine and extra-uterine leiomyosarcoma). Total RNA was isolated with Trizol and converted to labeled cRNA by standard Affymetrix protocols. Before analysis, Avg Diff values were normalized to a sum of 3 million for each probe set on the chip and values less than 20 were adjusted to 20 to allow log scaling in subsequent analysis.

Project description:Human uterine fibroids are benign tumors derived from the smooth muscle layers of the uterus. Fibroid disease impacts up to 50% of premenopausal women in their daily life, and accounts for up to 50% of hysterectomies in the United States. Despite the health burden they impose, the development of these tumors is barely understood. To improve our understanding of this disease, we developed and characterized a patient-derived xenograft models by transplanting small pieces of human uterine fibroid tissue subcutaneously into immunodeficient mice. Growth of the fibroid grafts was dependent on 17beta-estradiol and progesterone supplementation and maintained for up to 60 days. A gene expression profiling study was performed in order to determine molecular characteristis of well-grown compared to not-grown uterine fibroid xenografts.
