Project description:These 12 arrays are the basis for Figure 1 of the "An interferon-response induced by tumor-stroma interaction in a subset of human breast cancers" manuscript. Figure 1: Effect of heterotypic interaction between breast cancer cell line MDA-MB231 and CCL-171 fibroblast. Biologically independent replicates of the mono-cultured fibroblast CCL-171, the breast cancer cell line MDA-MB231 and the mixed co-culture of CCL-171 and MDA-MB231 were grown for 48h at low serum conditions and characterized by DNA microarray hybridization. Hierarchical clustering of a total of 4333 elements that display a greater than 3-fold variance in expression in more than 3 different experimental samples. Data from individual elements or genes are represented as single rows, and different experiments are shown as columns. Red and green denote expression levels of the samples. The intensity of the color reflects the magnitude of the deviation from baseline. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering of the experiments grouped the biological replicates together. Gene expression varied considerably between fibroblast and MDA-MB231 as expected for cells of mesenchymal or epithelial origin respectively. The co-culture profile showed mainly intermediate expression levels. However, the vertical black bar marks a cluster of genes induced in all co-cultures compared to both mono-cultures indicating that they are induced by heterotypic interaction Set of arrays organized by shared biological context, such as organism, tumors types, processes, etc. Computed

Project description:Experiments to test the effect of CtBP2 inhibition on metabolism of breast cell lines. In particular, experiment 1 involves comparison between a normal breast cell line (MCF102A) and a triple-negative breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB231). Experiment 2 is a study between MDA-MB231 silenced for CtBP2 by stable RNA interference (shCtBP2 cells) compared to scramble (shCTRL cells). Experiment 3 is a comparison between a normal breast cell line (MCF102A) and a triple-negative breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB231)in the presence of the absence of small-molecule CtBP inhibitors: HIPP (400 μM) or P4 (300 μM)for 48 hours.
Project description:Mfng, a modulator of Notch signaling, is highly expressed in human claudin-low breast cancer (CLBC). To determine Mfng’s roles in CLBC pathogenesis,we knocked down Mfng in a CLBC cell line MDA-MB231, and found that Mfng knockdown altered Notch activation, decreased tumor sphere formation in vitro, and reduced tumor growth in xenograft model. To identify the potential downstream targets of Mfng during CLBC tumorigenesis, we compared the gene expression profiles between xenografts tumor derived from of MDA-MB231 cells carrying Mfng shRNA and the control vector. Mfng, a modulator of Notch signaling, is highly expressed in human claudin-low breast cancer (CLBC). To determine Mfng’s roles in CLBC pathogenesis,we knocked down Mfng in a CLBC cell line MDA-MB231, and found that Mfng knockdown caused alteration in Notch activation, associated with decreased tumor sphere formation in vitro, as well as reduced tumor growth in xenograft model. We intend to compare gene expression profiles between xenografts of MDA-MB231 cells carrying Mfng shRNA and the control vector. This project seeks to identify potential downstream targets of Mfng in CLBC.

Stable cell clones with knockdown of MFNG or corresponding control were selected and injected orthotopically into SCID mice. Total RNA was then extracted from the xenograph tumors for microarray analysis.
Project description:Goal of this study was to investigate the time-dependent impact of ONC201 on gene expression changes in MDA-MB231, a triple negative breast cancer cell line
Project description:Interactions between epithelial cells and their associated stroma, mainly the fibroblasts therein have been implicated in breast malignancy. Our aim was to verify the effect of soluble factors resulting from the co-culture of normal (NAF) or associated breast cancer fibroblasts (CAF) with a normal (MCF-10A) or a metastatic (MDA-MB231) breast epithelial cell line on fibroblast gene expression profiles. Fibroblast primary cultures were established and co-culture of these cell types separated by inserts, which allow the passage of soluble factors, was performed. Total RNA was extracted, amplified and subjected to microarray gene expression profiling using microarrays in which 4,608 ORESTES (open reading frame expressed sequence tags) were spotted. Differentially expressed genes, at a False Discovery Ratio (FDR) less then 0.01 and fold variation greater than 2, were selected. CAF molecular signature was characterized by down regulation of 62% (29/47) of genes as compared to NAF, represented mainly by those related to vesicular transport, cytoskeleton plasticity and cell motility. CAF responded to co-culture with MCF-10A cells by up regulation of 63.5% (89/140) of genes, including those involved with cytoskeleton remodelling, lipid synthesis and members of the PI3K pathway. Contrarywise, MDA-MB231 cells affected the gene expression profile of CAF by down regulation of 65% (102/156) of genes, including those associated to tumor suppression and antiangiogenic potential. Up regulated genes, were mainly implicated with cell cycle progression and proliferation. NAF signature was altered by MDA-MB231 presence resulting in down regulation of suppressor genes, integrins and angiogenic factors, but it was modestly affected by MCF-10A.

Project description:To define and compare the interactomes of the RNA binding protein HNRNPC in poorly vs. efficiently metastatic breast adenocarcinoma cells, we carried out immunoprecipitation of endogenous HNRNPC from parental MDA-MB231 cells vs. its highly metastatic isogenic derivate, the MDA-MB231-LM2 cells. We used a non-specific MOUSE IgG IP from each line as control. Each IP was performed in triplicate, and analysed by LC-MS/MS, on a Thermo Q-Exactive-plus instrument.
Project description:To study the effect of PIAS1 on transcriptional regulation, we establishedstable PIAS1 shRNA knockdown cells in breast cancer cell line MDA-MB231. By comparing the expression profiles of control vs PIAS1 knockdown cells, we can identify potential PIAS1 target genes involved in breast tumorigenesis. MDA-MB231 Control shRNA and PIAS1 shRNA2 cells were cultured in DMEM plus 10% FBS (DMEM) or SCM for 30 h, and total RNA was used for microarray.
