Project description:E-cadherin (E-cad) mediates cell-cell adhesion and has been proposed to suppress both invasion and metastasis. However, invasive ductal cancers retain E-cad expression in the primary tumor, circulating tumor cells, and distant metastases. We recently demonstrated that cancer cell clusters are efficient metastatic seeds. Since clusters organize through cell-cell adhesion, we tested the requirement for E-cad in genetically engineered mouse models of luminal and basal breast cancer. Loss of E-cad increased invasion and dissemination in 3D culture and in the mammary gland. However, E-cad loss also reduced cancer cell proliferation, survival, tumor cell seeding, and metastatic outgrowth in the lungs. At the transcript level, loss of E-cad was associated with increased apoptosis. Consistent with these results, inhibition of apoptosis partially rescued the metastatic phenotype of E-cad null cancer cells. We therefore propose that E-cad is an invasion suppressor, survival factor, and metastasis promoter in invasive ductal cancers.

Project description:Metastasis initiates when cancer cells escape from the primary tumor, which requires changes to intercellular junctions. Claudins are transmembrane proteins that form the tight junction, and their expression is reduced in aggressive breast tumors. However, claudins’ roles during breast cancer metastasis remain unclear. We used gain- and loss-of-function genetics in organoids isolated from murine breast cancer models to establish that Cldn7 suppresses invasion and metastasis. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that Cldn7 knockdown induced smooth muscle actin (SMA)-related genes and a broader mesenchymal phenotype. We validated our results in human cell lines, fresh human tumor tissue, bulk RNA-seq, and public single cell RNA-seq data. We consistently observed an inverse relationship between Cldn7 expression and expression of SMA-related genes. Furthermore, knockdown and overexpression of SMA-related genes demonstrated that they promote breast cancer invasion. Our data reveal that Cldn7 suppresses breast cancer invasion and metastasis through negative regulation of SMA-related and mesenchymal gene expression.

Project description:Vascular endothelial (VE-)cadherin is a homotypic adhesion protein that is expressed selectively by ECs in which it enables formation of tight vessels and regulation of vascular permeability. Since VE-cadherin is also strongly expressed in placental trophoblasts, it is a prime candidate for a molecular mechanism of vascular mimicry by those cells. Here, we show that the VE-cadherin is required for trophoblast migration and endovascular invasion into the maternal decidua. VE-cadherin deficiency results in loss of spiral artery remodeling due to a lack of invasive trophoblasts, leading to decreased flow of maternal blood into the placenta, fetal growth retardation and death. Loss of trophoblast invasion prevents decidualization, extracellular matrix remodeling, and immune cell clearance. These studies identify VE-cadherin as essential for trophoblast migration and coordination of decidual changes during endovascular invasion. They further suggest endothelial proteins such as VE-cadherin that are expressed by trophoblasts may play functionally distinct roles that do not simply mimic those in ECs.

Project description:We report the identification of FLO-1, and derivation of its isogenic companion FLO-1LM, as two spontaneously metastatic cell line models of human esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). We performed genome-wide RNAseq comparing FLO-1LM and FLO-1 parental cells to gain molecular insights into the phenotypic differences between these two cell lines. Using an adjusted p-value<0.05, a total of 375 (307 downregulated, 68 upregulated) genes were differentially regulated in FLO-1LM compared with parental cells. Genome-wide RNAseq profiling revealed significant enrichment of metastasis-related pathways in FLO-1LM cells, many of which are also evident in patient samples. Moreover, CDH1, which encodes the adhesion molecule E-cadherin, was the most significantly downregulated gene in FLO-1LM compared to FLO-1.

Project description:In this study we want to compare the expression profiles of E-cadherin high and low tumor cells from 4 different mice with breast cancer brain metastasis. We used a breast cancer brain metastasis model derived from the PyMT E-cadherin-mCFP breast cancer model (Beerling et al. Cell Reports 2016) and FACS sorted samples based on endogenous E-cadherin-mCFP expression.

Project description:Clinical and genomic evidence support the view that the metastatic potential of a primary tumor may be dictated by transforming events acquired early in the tumorigenic process. It has been proposed that the presence of such pro-metastatic events in early-stage tumors reflects their additional capability to function as oncogenes. Here, to test this ‘deterministic’ hypothesis and identify potential pro-metastasis oncogenes, we adopted a comparative oncogenomics-guided functional genetic screening strategy involving (i) global transcriptomic data from two genetically engineered mouse models of melanoma with contrasting metastatic potential, (ii) genomic and transcriptomic profiles of human primary and metastatic melanoma and (iii) an invasion screen in TERT-immortalized human melanocytes and melanoma cells in vitro as well as (iv) evidence of expression selection in human melanoma tissues. This integrated effort led to the identification of 6 genes that are both potently pro-invasive and oncogenic. Further, we show that one such pro-invasion oncogene, ACP5, can confer spontaneous metastasis in vivo, engages a key pathway governing metastasis and is prognostic in human primary melanomas. The tetracycline-inducible MET-driven mouse (iMet) model (Tyr-rtTA;Tet-Met;Ink4a/Arf-/-) was constructed similar to the previously described iHRAS* model (Tyr-rtTA;Tet-HRASV12G;Ink4a/Arf-/-). RNA from cutaneous melanomas derived from iMet (n=6) or iHRAS* (n=6) models were profiled on Affymetrix M430A_2 chips and resultant transcriptomes were compared to generate a phenotype-based (metastatic capable or not) differentially expressed gene list. Cross-species triangulation to human gene expression and copy number aberrations was based on ortholog mapping.

Project description:Purpose: Despite that androgen-deprivation therapy results in long-lasting responses, the disease inevitably progresses to metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. In this study, we identified miR-33b-3p as a suppressor of metastasis in prostate cancer. miR-33b-3p was significantly reduced in prostate cancer tissues, and the low expression of miR-33b-3p was correlated with poor overall survival of prostate cancer patients. Overexpression of miR-33b-3p inhibited both migration and invasion of highly metastatic prostate cancer cells whereas antagonizing miR-33b-3p promoted those processes in lowly metastatic cells. The in vivo results demonstrate that miR-33b-3p suppresses metastasis of tail vein inoculated prostate cancer cells to lung, liver, and lymph node in mice. DOCK4 was validated as the direct target of miR-33b-3p. miR-33b-3p decreased the expression of DOCK4 and restoration of DOCK4 could rescue miR-33b-3p inhibition on cell migration and invasion. Moreover, downregulation of miR-33b-3p was induced by bortezomib, the clinically used proteasome inhibitor, and overexpression of miR-33b-3p rescued the insufficient inhibition of bortezomib on migration and invasion in prostate cancer cells. Collectively, our findings demonstrate that miR-33b-3p suppresses metastasis by targeting DOCK4 in prostate cancer. Our results suggest that enhancing miR-33b-3p expression may provide a promising therapeutic strategy for overcoming that proteasome inhibitor’s poor efficacy against metastatic prostate cancer.
