Deciphering the role of CDK4 in regulating metabolism and cell fate of triple-negative breast cancer cells
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The shift on energetic demands of proliferating cells during tumorigenesis requires an intense crosstalk between cell cycle and metabolism. Beyond their role in cell proliferation, cell cycle regulators also modulate intracellular metabolism of normal tissues. Using both genetic and pharmacological approaches, we aimed to determine the metabolic role of CDK4 in TNBC cells. Unexpectedly, deletion of CDK4 only slightly reduces cell proliferation of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cell line and allows in vivo tumor formation. Furthermore, pro-apoptotic stimuli fail to induce proper cell death in CDK4-silenced, depleted or long-term CDK4/6 inhibitors-treated TNBC cells, with dampened mitochondrial calcium uptake. In the second mass spectrometry-based experiment linked to this project, we used TMT technology to assay the proteome and phosphoproteome of WT and Cdk4 KO cells triple negative breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-231) subjected to mitophagic stress, i.e. a treatment with Oligomycin + Antimycin A.
