Project description:The telomeric amplicon at 8p12 is common in ER+ breast cancers. Array-CGH and expression analyses of 1172 tumors revealed ZNF703/Zeppo1 was the single gene within the minimal amplicon and was amplified predominantly in the Luminal B subtype. Amplification was shown to correlate with increased gene and protein expression and was associated with a distinct expression signature and poor outcome. In the luminal MCF-7 cell line manipulation of ZNF703 expression altered transcription of genes also present within the primary tumor signature, including TGFBR2 (whose promoter was bound by ZNF703). Overexpression of ZNF703 rendered MCF-7 cells insensitive to TGFβ-induced suppression of mammosphere formation. Forced overexpression of ZNF703 in normal human breast epithelial cells enhanced the frequency of in vitro colony-forming cells from luminal progenitors. Together these data strongly point to ZNF703/Zeppo1 as a novel oncogene in Luminal B breast cancer. MCF-7 breast cancer cell line was infected with ZNF703 overexpression (ZNF703) or control (HIV) virus and following GFP sorting of infected cells, were transfected with control siRNA (siC) or siRNA against endogenous ZNF703 (siZNF), resulting in four different conditions: siC_HIV, siC_ZNF, siZNF_HIV and siZNF-ZNF. RNA for each condition was harvested from triplicate plates.

Project description:The telomeric amplicon at 8p12 is common in oestrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancers. Array-CGH and expression analyses of 1172 primary breast tumours revealed that ZNF703 was the single gene within the minimal amplicon and was amplified predominantly in the Luminal B subtype. Amplification was shown to correlate with increased gene and protein expression and was associated with a distinct expression signature and poor clinical outcome. ZNF703 transformed NIH 3T3 fibroblasts, behaving as a classical oncogene, and regulated proliferation in human luminal breast cancer cell lines and immortalized human mammary epithelial cells. Manipulation of ZNF703 expression in the luminal MCF7 cell line modified the effects of TGFβ on proliferation. Overexpression of ZNF703 in normal human breast epithelial cells enhanced the frequency of in vitro colony-forming cells from luminal progenitors. Taken together, these data strongly point to ZNF703 as a novel oncogene in Luminal B breast cancer.

Project description:Co-amplification at chromosomes 8p11-8p12 and 11q12-11q14 occurs often in breast tumors, suggesting possible cooperation between genes in these regions in oncogenesis. We used high resolution array comparative genomic hybridization (array CGH) to map the minimal amplified regions. The 8p and 11q amplicons are complex and consist of at least four amplicon cores at each site. Candidate genes mapping to these regions were identified by combining copy number and RNA and protein expression analyses. Funcational analysis for transformation was further carried out with candidate genes to determine candidate oncogenes. Near tiling path coverage of 8p11q array CGH experiments with breast cell lines and ductal invasive and lymph node-negative breast tumors.

Project description:Breast cancer is a profoundly heterogeneous disease with respect to biological and clinical behavior. Gene expression profiling has been used to dissect this complexity and stratify tumors into intrinsic gene expression subtypes associated with distinct biology, patient outcome and different genomic alterations. Additionally, breast tumors occurring in individuals with germline BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations typically fall into distinct subtypes. We applied global DNA copy number and gene expression profiling in 359 breast tumors. All tumors were classified according to intrinsic gene expression subtypes and included cases from genetically predisposed women. The Genomic Identification of Significant Targets in Cancer (GISTIC) algorithm was used to identify significant DNA copy number aberrations and genomic subgroups of breast cancer. We identified 31 genomic regions that were highly amplified in >1% of the 359 breast tumors. Several amplicons were found to co-occur, the 8p12 and 11q13.3 regions being the most frequent combination besides amplicons on the same chromosomal arm. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering with 133 significant GISTIC regions (66 and 67 with DNA copy number gain and loss, respectively) revealed six genomic subtypes, termed: 17q12, basal-complex, luminal-simple, luminal-complex, amplifier and mixed subtype. Four of them had striking similarity to intrinsic gene expression subtypes and showed association to conventional tumor biomarkers and clinical outcome. However, luminal A-classified tumors were distributed in two main genomic subtypes, luminal-simple and luminal-complex, the former group having better prognosis while the latter group included also luminal B and the majority of BRCA2-mutated tumors. The basal-complex subtype displayed extensive genomic homogeneity and harbored the majority of BRCA1-mutated tumors. The 17q12 subtype comprised mostly HER2-amplified and HER2-enriched subtype tumors and had the worst prognosis. The amplifier and mixed subtypes contained tumors from all gene expression subtypes, the former being enriched for 8p12-amplified cases while the mixed subtype included many tumors with predominantly DNA copy number losses and poor prognosis.

Project description:To understand the role of the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and its reverse MET dynamics between health and disease, the identification of epithelial (E)- and mesenchymal (M)-specific genes is essential. The aim of the study was to derive genes that are characteristic E and M phenotypes in breast-derived cells. Their identification can help to understand the functional meaning of their expression and dynamic changes of individual cells, whole cell populations, and tumors, and even patients. Breast cancer stem cells (CSCs) are thought to drive recurrence and metastasis. Their identity has been linked to the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) but remains highly controversial since -- depending on the cell line studied -- either epithelial (E) or mesenchymal (M) markers, alone or together, have been associated with stemness. Using distinct transcript expression signatures characterizing the three different E, M and hybrid E/M cell types, our data support a novel model that links a mixed E/M signature with stemness in 1) individual cells, 2) luminal and basal cell lines, 3) in vivo xenograft mouse models, and 4) in all breast cancer subtypes. In particular, we found that co-expression of E and M signatures was associated with poorest outcome in luminal and basal breast cancer patients, as well as with enrichment for stem-like cells in both E and M breast cell lines. This link between a mixed E/M expression signature and stemness was explained by two findings: first, mixed cultures of E and M cells showed increased cooperation in mammosphere formation (indicative of stemness). Second, single-cell qPCR analysis revealed that E and M genes could be co-expressed in the same cell. These hybrid E/M cells were generated by both E or M cells and had stem-like character since they displayed increased plasticity, produced ALDH1+ progenies self-renewal and mammosphere formation compared to the more differentiated E and M cell types. Thus, the hybrid E/M state reflecting stemness and its promotion by E-M cooperation offers a dual biological rationale for the robust association of the mixed E/M signature with poor prognosis, independent of cellular origin. Together, our model explains previous paradoxical findings that breast CSCs appear to be M in luminal cell lines but E in basal breast cancer cell lines. Our results suggest that targeting E/M heterogeneity by eliminating hybrid E/M cells and cooperation between E and M cell types could improve breast cancer patient survival independent of breast cancer-subtype.

Project description:The transcription factor c-Myb has been well characterized as an oncogene in several human tumor types, and its expression in the hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell population is essential for proper hematopoiesis. However, the role of c-Myb in mammopoeisis and breast tumorigenesis is poorly understood, despite its high expression in the majority of breast cancer cases (60-80%). We find that c-Myb high expression in human breast tumors correlates with the luminal/ER+ phenotype and a good prognosis. RNAi knock-down of endogenous c-Myb levels in the MCF7 luminal breast tumor cell line increases tumorigenesis both in vitro and in vivo, suggesting a tumor suppressor role in luminal breast cancer. We created a mammary-derived c-Myb expression signature and found it to be highly correlated with a published mature luminal mammary cell signature and least correlated with a mammary stem/progenitor lineage gene signature. These data describe, for the first time, a tumor suppressor role for the c-Myb proto-oncogene in breast cancer that has implications for understanding luminal tumorigenesis and for guiding treatment. refXsample
