Project description:Our purpose is to identify candidate genes involved in the early steps of breast cancer metastasis and examine their pro-invasive functions both in vitro and in vivo. A percentage of bilateral breast cancers were clonally related based on copy number variation profiling. Whole exome sequencing and comparative sequence analysis revealed that a limited number of somatic mutations were acquired in this “breast to breast” metastasis. These mutations might promote breast cancer distant spread. The pro-invasive functions of a candidate metastasis gene were assessed in vitro by its abilities to promote proliferation, migration and invasion and in vivo as tumor xenografts in immunocompromised mice or a syngeneic orthotopic mouse breast cancer model. RNAseq analysis was performed to probe the transcription programs modulated by this candidate metastasis gene. SIVA1-D160N was one somatic mutation acquired in the breast to breast metastasis. Over-expression of SIVA1-D160N promoted migration and invasion of human MB-MDA-231 breast cancer cells in vitro, consistent with a dominant negative interfering function. When introduced via tail vein injection, 231 cells over-expressing SIVA1-D160N displayed enhanced distant spread on IVIS imaging. Over-expression of SIVA1-D160N promoted anchorage independent growth of mouse 4T1 breast cancer cells in vitro. When introduced orthotopically via mammary fat pad injection in syngeneic Balb/c mice, over-expression of SIVA1-D160N in 4T1 cells increased mammary gland tumor growth as well as liver metastasis. We conclude clonally related bilateral breast cancers represent a novel system to investigate metastasis and revealed a role of SIVA1-D160N in breast cancer metastasis.

Project description:Bilaterality of breast cancer is an indicator of constitutional cancer susceptibility, however, the molecular causes underlying this predisposition in the majority of cases is not known. We hypothesize that epigenetic misregulation of cancer related genes could partially account for this predisposition. We have performed methylation microarray analysis of peripheral blood DNA from 14 women with bilateral breast cancer compared to 14 unaffected matched controls throughout 17 candidate breast cancer susceptibility genes including BRCA1, BRCA2, CHEK2, ATM, ESR1, SFN, CDKN2A, TP53, GSTP1, CDH1, CDH13, HIC1, PGR, SFRP1, MLH1, RARB and HSD17B4. We show that the majority of methylation variability is associated with intragenic repetitive elements. Detailed validation of the tiled region around ATM was performed by bisulfite modification and pyrosequencing of the same samples and in a second set of peripheral blood DNA from 190 bilateral breast cancer patients compared to 190 controls. We show significant hypermethylation of one intragenic repetitive element in breast cancer cases compared to controls (p=0.0017) with the highest quartile of methylation associated with a three-fold increased risk of breast cancer (OR = 3.20, 95% C.I.=1.78-5.86, p=0.000083). Increased methylation of this locus is associated with lower steady state ATM mRNA level and correlates with age of cancer patients but not controls, suggesting a combined age-phenotype related association. This research demonstrates the potential for gene-body epigenetic misregulation of ATM and other cancer related genes in peripheral blood DNA that may be useful as a novel marker to estimate breast cancer risk.

Project description:Breast cancer outcome is highly variable. Whether inadvertent exposure to environmental xenobiotics evokes a biological response promoting cancer aggressiveness and a higher probability of tumor recurrence remains unknown. To determine specific molecular alterations, which arise in high-risk breast tissue in the presence of the ubiquitous xenoestrogen, bisphenol A (BPA), we employed non-malignant random periareolar fine needle aspirates (RPFNA) in a novel functional assay. Early events induced by BPA in epithelial-stromal cocultures derived from the contralateral tissue of breast cancer patients included gene expression patterns, which facilitate apoptosis evasion, endurance of microenvironmental stress, and cell cycle deregulation without a detectable increase in cell number. This BPA response profile was significantly associated with breast tumors characterized by high histologic grade (p<0.001), and large tumor size (p=0.002), resulting in decreased recurrence-free patient survival (p<0.001). Our assays demonstrate a biological 'fingerprint' of probable prior exposure to endocrine disrupting agents, and suggest a scenario in which their presence in the microenvironmental milieu of high-risk breast tissue could play a deterministic role in establishing and maintaining tumor aggressiveness and poor patient outcome. Experiment Overall Design: The study included twelve patients undergoing breast biopsy or surgery for breast cancer. Random periareolar fine needle aspirates (RPFNA) were collected from the unaffected contralateral breast of these patients. Control and hormone treated RPFNA cell cultures were analyzed using Affymetrix GeneChip(TM) arrays

Project description:Numerous studies have described the altered expression and the causal role of miRNAs in human cancer. However, to date efforts to modulate miRNA levels for therapeutic purposes have been challenging to implement. Here, we find that Nucleolin (NCL), a major nucleolar protein, post-transcriptionally regulates the expression of a specific subset of miRNAs, including miR-21, miR-221, miR-222, and miR-103, causally involved in breast cancer initiation, progression and drug-resistance. We also show that NCL is commonly overexpressed in human breast tumors, and its expression correlates with that of NCL-dependent miRNAs. Finally, this study indicates that NCL-binding guanosine-rich aptamers affect the levels of NCL-dependent miRNAs and their target genes, reducing breast cancer cell aggressiveness, both in vitro and in vivo. These findings illuminate a path to novel therapeutic approaches based on NCL-targeting aptamers for the modulation of miRNA expression in the treatment of breast cancer. HeLa cells were transfected with the control or anti-nucleolin siRNA. After 72hours total RNA was collected and analyzed by NanoString.
