Expression data from Tamoxifen resistant Breast Cancer Cell lines

ABSTRACT: Tamoxifen Resistant (TR) gene profile from Breast cancer cell lines T47D and ZR75-1 with their oestrogen-deprieved conterparts were analysed for gene associated with TR. We used Microarray Affymetrix HU133plus 2.0 chips for gene expression of TR cell lines, normalised them against GEO data available for normal T47D (GSM70667) and ZR75-1 (GSM70668). We grew parental breast cancer cell lines in tamoxifen containing media (0.1 microM) for 6 months and labelled them tamoxifen resistant (TR). Oestrogen-Deprieved cells were grown in charcoal-stripped media for 6 months then tamoxifen (0.1 microM) was added to the media and cells maintained a further 6 months and termed Oestrogen deprieved-tamoxifen resistant (ODTR) .

Project description:Background: Up to 40% of patients with estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer experience treatment resistance and disease recurrence, often caused by the upregulation of growth factor receptors. Understanding the mechanisms of resistance, and the identification of novel therapeutic targets is, therefore, of vital importance if breast cancer prognosis is to be further improved. Fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) is a potential driver of endocrine resistance; however, clinically successful attempts at targeting FGFR1 activity in breast cancer are rare and may result from an inability to correctly identify patients that could benefit from such treatment. The identification of additional genes associated with an FGFR1-mediated mechanism of resistance will provide a more precise classification scheme for FGFR1-dependency in breast cancer. Methods: Live cell imaging and RNA sequencing of ER+ breast cancer cell lines (CAMA1, T47D, tamoxifen resistant T47D) were used to investigate FGFR1-dependency in breast cancer, mechanisms of endocrine resistance and the effects of treatment with tamoxifen and erdafitinib. An FGFR1-amplified ER+ breast cancer patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model was used to assess the effects of targeting FGFR1 in vivo. Gene expression analysis of human breast cancer from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) was used for clinical validation. Results: We evaluated the effects of targeting FGFR1 in ER+/HER2- breast cancer with aberrant FGFR1 amplification and/or overexpression. We found that the FGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) erdafitinib inhibited cell proliferation of FGFR1-amplified CAMA1 cells in vitro. Additionally, erdafitinib significantly enhanced the anti-proliferative effect of 4-hydroxytamoxifen (4-OHT) and its anti-tumor effect was also demonstrated in vivo. Further, we demonstrated that the proliferation of FGFR1-overexpressing tamoxifen-resistant T47D (TR-T47D) cells is dependent on FGFR1 activity. Moreover, these TR-T47D cells are re-sensitized to tamoxifen upon treatment with erdafitinib. Finally, we found that upregulation of genes related to epithelial-mesenchymal-transition (EMT) correlates with FGFR1 overexpression, and is reversed by FGFR inhibition. Conclusions: In this study we demonstrated that targeting FGFR1 in ER+/HER2- breast cancer with aberrant FGFR1 activity has the potential to inhibit tumor growth and to re-sensitize resistant tumors to tamoxifen. Furthermore, we identified a functional relationship between EMT, FGFR activity and endocrine resistance in breast tumorigenesis.
