STC2 suppresses triple-negative breast cancer migration and invasion by inhibition on EMT and promotion on cell apoptosis.

ABSTRACT: To investigate the effects of higher cellular stanniocalcin 2 (STC2) on suppressing the migration and invasion but promoting the apoptosis of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). STC2 in TNBC and the para-carcinoma tissues were analyzed by immunohistochemistry (IHC), while the mRNA level was measured by qPCR. Over-expressing or silencing STC2 was established in MDA-MB-231 cells. Epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) related proteins, cell migration, invasion, proliferation and apoptosis were detected. MDA-MB-231 with over-expressing or silencing STC2 were injected into nude mice to formatting tumors, and then EMT related proteins were measured by IHC. Lower STC2 expressed in TNBC tissues than in the para-carcinoma tissues. Silencing STC2 promoted EMT of TNBC cell MDA-MB-231, as well as cell migration, invasion and proliferation, but suppressed MDA-MB-231 apoptosis, while over-expressing STC2 had the opposite results, which might be related to PKC/PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. STC2 was the protective gene in TNBC, by suppressing migration and invasion to inhibit MDA-MB-231 cell EMT but promote cell apoptosis, in order to suppress TNBC progression.

Project description:Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) comprises ∼20% of all breast cancers and is the most aggressive mammary cancer subtype. Devoid of the estrogen and progesterone receptors, along with the receptor tyrosine kinase ERB2 (HER2), that define most mammary cancers, there are no targeted therapies for patients with TNBC. This, combined with a high metastatic rate and a lower 5-year survival rate than for other breast cancer phenotypes, means there is significant unmet need for new therapeutic strategies. Herein, the anti-neoplastic effects of the electrophilic fatty acid nitroalkene derivative, 10-nitro-octadec-9-enoic acid (nitro-oleic acid, NO2-OA), were investigated in multiple preclinical models of TNBC. NO2-OA reduced TNBC cell growth and viability in vitro, attenuated TNFα-induced TNBC cell migration and invasion, and inhibited the tumor growth of MDA-MB-231 TNBC cell xenografts in the mammary fat pads of female nude mice. The up-regulation of these aggressive tumor cell growth, migration, and invasion phenotypes is mediated in part by the constitutive activation of pro-inflammatory nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling in TNBC. NO2-OA inhibited TNFα-induced NF-κB transcriptional activity in human TNBC cells and suppressed downstream NF-κB target gene expression, including the metastasis-related proteins intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and urokinase-type plasminogen activator. The mechanisms accounting for NF-κB signaling inhibition by NO2-OA in TNBC cells were multifaceted, as NO2-OA (a) inhibited the inhibitor of NF-κB subunit kinase β phosphorylation and downstream inhibitor of NF-κB degradation, (b) alkylated the NF-κB RelA protein to prevent DNA binding, and (c) promoted RelA polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. Comparisons with non-tumorigenic human breast epithelial MCF-10A and MCF7 cells revealed that NO2-OA more selectively inhibited TNBC function. This was attributed to more facile mechanisms for maintaining redox homeostasis in normal breast epithelium, including a more favorable thiol/disulfide balance, greater extents of multidrug resistance protein-1 (MRP1) expression, and greater MRP1-mediated efflux of NO2-OA-glutathione conjugates. These observations reveal that electrophilic fatty acid nitroalkenes react with more alkylation-sensitive targets in TNBC cells to inhibit growth and viability.
