We had previously reported a close association between pathological response and the maximum tumor standardized uptake value (SUVmax) measured by 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography prior to chemotherapy in estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer. We hypothesized that glucose hypermetabolism by luminal B tumors may result in chemotherapy responsiveness. Using a single-gene expression assay, TargetPrint® (Agendia) and a 70-gene expression classifier, MammaPrint® (Agendia), we divided 20 patients with ER-positive primary breast cancer into luminal A and luminal B subtypes and compared the tumor SUVmax value between the two groups. A significantly higher SUVmax was measured for luminal B tumors (n=10; mean±SD, 7.6±5.6) than for luminal A tumors (n=10; mean±SD, 2.6±1.2; p=0.01). Glucose hypermetabolism could help predict intrinsic subtyping and chemotherapy responsiveness as a supplement to ER, progesterone receptor, HER2, and Ki-67 histochemical scores. 相似文献

Background: Breast cancer (BC) is the most frequent type of gynecology tumors with high morbidity and mortality. Ampelopsin, the main active compound of Ampelopsis grossedentata, exerts an anti-tumor effect on a variety of cancers. However, the anti-cancer role of ampelopsin in BC remains unclear. The aim of this study is toexplore the mechanism of ampelopsin against breast cancer. Materials and Methods: The target genes of ampelopsin in the treatment of breast cancer were determined and analyzed by network pharmacology and moleculardocking. Cytoscape software was used to identify the core target genes and construct a protein–protein interaction(PPI) network. Discovery Studio software was used to perform the molecular docking of ampelopsin and coregenes and glycolytic metabolic enzymes. Results: In total, 25 potential target genes of ampelopsin were screenedout. The core target genes of ampelopsin against breast cancer were AKT1, ESR1, ESR2, NCOA1, HSP90AA1,NCOA2, BECN1, COMT, HMOX1, and CDK6, with AKT1, ESR1 and ESR2 considered as the key target proteins.Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis showed that ampelopsin inhibited breast cancer viamodulating the estrogen signaling pathway, apoptosis regulation, carbohydrate metabolism, and inflammation.Molecular docking analysis showed that ampelopsin possessed a stable binding ability to regulate the three targetproteins and glycolytic metabolic enzymes such as ALDOA and LDHA. Conclusions: Ampelopsin may inhibitthe proliferation of breast cancer cells by acting on AKT and estrogen-related glucose metabolic pathways andinhibiting the enzymes involved in glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation. 相似文献

The genomic effects of tumor-endothelial interactions in cancer are not yet well characterized. To study this interaction in breast cancer, we set up an ex vivo coculture model with human benign and malignant breast epithelial cells with endothelial cells to determine the associated gene expression changes using DNA microarrays.Results
The most prominent response to coculture was the induction of the M-phase cell cycle genes in a subset of breast cancer cocultures that were absent in cocultures with normal breast epithelial cells. In monoculture, tumor cells that contained the stem cell-like CD44+/CD24- signature had a lower expression of the M-phase cell cycle genes than the CD44-/CD24+ cells, and in the CD44+/CD24- cocultures, these genes were induced. Pretreatment gene expression profiles of early-stage breast cancers allowed evaluating in vitro effects in vivo. The expression of the gene set derived from the coculture provided a basis for the segregation of the tumors into two groups. In a univariate analysis, early-stage tumors with high expression levels (n = 137) of the M-phase cell cycle genes had a significantly lower metastasis-free survival rate (P = 1.8e - 5, 50% at 10 years) and overall survival rate (P = 5e - 9, 52% at 10 years) than tumors with low expression (n = 158; metastasis-free survival, 73%; overall survival, 84%).Conclusions
Our results suggest that the interaction of endothelial cells with tumor cells that express the CD44+/CD24- signature, which indicates a low proliferative potential, might explain the unexpected and paradoxical association of the CD44+/CD24- signature with highly proliferative tumors that have an unfavorable prognosis. 相似文献12.

BackgroundUbiquitin-specific protease 22 (USP22) has been implicated in the progression of breast cancer, while its regulatory functions in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) have been rarely reported. This study aimed to elucidate the effect and mechanism of USP22 on the malignant phenotype of TNBC cells.Materials and MethodsThe expression of USP22, stemness genes, and EMT-related markers were analyzed by RT-qPCR and/or Western blotting. Cell stemness was determined by cell spheroid formation, flow cytometry for CD44+/CD24-, and extreme limiting dilution analysis. Cell proliferation and cisplatin (DDP) chemoresistance of TNBC cells were assessed by CCK-8 assay and xenograft model. Glycolysis was measured by Seahorse assay. The mechanism underlying the role of USP22 was explored by Co-immunoprecipitation, ubiquitination assay, and cycloheximide-chase analysis.ResultsUSP22 expression was positively correlated with DDP resistance in TNBC patients and cells. The proliferation, spheroid number, CD44+/CD24- cells, the expression of stemness genes and EMT-related markers in TNBC cells were significantly elevated after USP22 was overexpressed; however, these parameters in DDP-resistant TNBC (TNBC/DDP) cells were significantly reduced after silencing USP22. USP22 overexpression enhanced the extracellular acidification rate, proliferation, spheroid number, CD44+/CD24- cell number, and the expression of stemness genes and EMT-related markers in TNBC/DDP cells, while these effects were restrained by glycolysis inhibitors. Mechanically, USP22 interacted with c-Myc to promote its stabilization by deubiquitination in TNBC cells. Silencing of USP22 increased DDP sensitivity and survival of mice bearing TNBC.ConclusionUSP22 contributes to chemoresistance, stemness, and EMT phenotype of TNBC cells by suppressing the glycolysis via c-Myc deubiquitination. 相似文献

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a subpopulation generally thought to be responsible for cancer initiation and progression. Because CSCs are often rare in the total tumor cell population and differentiate rapidly when grown in culture, it has been challenging to uncover compounds that selectively target CSCs. We previously described CSC-emulating cells derived from breast cancer cell lines that maintained a stable undifferentiated state. We optimized a phenotypic assay with these cells and screened 1,280-bioactive compounds, identifying five that preferentially inhibited CSC-like cell proliferation. Using a compound-guided target identification approach, we found high topoisomerase I (Topo I) expression levels in breast CSC-like cells and primary breast CSCs. Structurally unrelated small molecules targeting Topo I preferentially inhibited CSC-like cells. These results illustrate the substantial power of this CSC phenotypic screening platform and promote Topo I as a potential molecular therapeutic target for therapies aimed at expunging CSCs. 相似文献

Cancer stem cell research is a focus for more and more cancer biologists and evidence of involvement incancer devleopment is becoming more abundant. Earlier studies indicated cancer stem cells to be rare asdetermined by the standard xenotransplantation assay using SCID mice in vivo. However, recent studies haveshown that syngeneic transplantation of mouse tumors or modifications to the xenotransplantation assay caneffectively improve the accuracy of detection, with stem cells being more abundant than hitherto thought.Furthermore, to estimate frequency correctly, it is necessary to considerate cancer stem cell subsets with differingcapacities for tumorigenesis. 相似文献

Cancer stem cells (CSC) and genes have been linked to cancer development and therapeutic resistance, but the signaling mechanisms regulating CSC genes and phenotype are incompletely understood. CK2 has emerged as a key signal serine/threonine kinase that modulates diverse signal cascades regulating cell fate and growth. We previously showed that CK2 is often aberrantly expressed and activated in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC), concomitantly with mutant (mt) tumor suppressor TP53, and inactivation of its family member, TAp73. Unexpectedly, we observed that classical stem cell genes Nanog, Sox2, and Oct4, are overexpressed in HNSCC with inactivated TAp73 and mtTP53. However, the potential relationship between CK2, TAp73 inactivation, and CSC phenotype is unknown. We reveal that inhibition of CK2 by pharmacologic inhibitors or siRNA inhibits the expression of CSC genes and side population (SP), while enhancing TAp73 mRNA and protein expression. Conversely, CK2 inhibitor attenuation of CSC protein expression and the SP by was abrogated by TAp73 siRNA. Bioinformatic analysis uncovered a single predicted CK2 threonine phosphorylation site (T27) within the N-terminal transactivation domain of TAp73. Nuclear CK2 and TAp73 interaction, confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation, was attenuated by CK2 inhibitor, or a T27A point-mutation of this predicted CK2 threonine phospho-acceptor site of TAp73. Further, T27A mutation attenuated phosphorylation, while enhancing TAp73 function in repressing CSC gene expression and SP cells. A new CK2 inhibitor, CX-4945, inhibited CSC related SP cells, clonogenic survival, and spheroid formation. Our study unveils a novel regulatory mechanism whereby aberrant CK2 signaling inhibits TAp73 to promote the expression of CSC genes and phenotype.Abbreviations: CK2, Casein Kinase 2; CSC, Cancer Stem Cells; DMAT, 2-Dimethylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrabromo-1H-benzimidazole; HNSCC, Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma; HEKA, Human epidermal keratinocytes; HOK, Human oral keratinocytes; mt, Mutant; SP, Side population; TAp73, Transactivating p73; TP53, Transforming Protein p53; UM-SCC, University of Michigan Squamous Cell Carcinoma; wt, Wild-type 相似文献

The hypothesis that in utero exposure to pregnancy hormones, notably estrogens, is related to the occurrence of breast cancer in the offspring has been examined in a number of epidemiological and experimental studies. Many studies have provided direct or indirect evidence that supports the hypothesis of an intrauterine component in the origin of breast cancer. Human studies to examine the underlying biological mechanisms, however, have been limited. We review the likely role of stem cells in hormone-mediated carcinogenic process, particularly as intermediate steps between in utero exposure to hormones and breast cancer. We summarize also studies related to the assumptions of the hypothesis concerning in utero exposure. We propose the use of stem cell potential as a measurable variable of the 'fertile soil', a term that has been used to characterize the consequences of fetal exposure to intrauterine environment. We conclude by outlining a feasible population-based study that measures stem cell potential to explore mechanisms mediating the relation between in utero exposure to pregnancy hormones and breast cancer risk in the offspring. 相似文献
