Project description:Murine models of mammary cancers have proven to be highly informative on numerous fronts including individual gene causation, microenvironmental analyses, and chemoprevention studies. The MMTV-Neu transgenic model of mammary cancer has proven to be a useful model and has been employed in several prevention studies. However, there are certain practical drawbacks to its use including long tumor latencies and a tendency to develop mutations in the transmembrane domain of Neu (unlike human HER2/Neu overexpressing breast cancers). Here we report modifications that were made in an attempt to optimize this mouse model for chemopreventive screening. First, homozygous MMTV-Neu and homozygous P53 KO mice were crossed to create a MMTV-Neu/P53+/- strain (which more closely approximates the genetic make-up of most HER2+ human patients). Second, to overcome the drawback of long tumor latencies, the mice were treated with DMBA for eight weeks. DMBA treatment greatly decreased the latency of mammary carcinomas in the MMTV-Neu mice although the resulting tumors remained histopathologically similar to those from MMTV-Neu control mice. Next, we examined gene expression in tumors derived from MMTV-Neu, MMTV-Neu/p53+/-, and DMBA treated mice. It was found that the characteristic MMTV-Neu tumor-defined expression pattern was still the most prevalent feature of all the MMTV-Neu tumors despite their being crossed to the p53 null allele, treated with DMBA, or both. However, tumors from the DMBA treated animals exhibited many unique gene expression changes including the high expression of stress response, defense, and inflammation genes. Finally, we demonstrated that the RXR agonists UAB30 and Targretin, both inhibited mammary cancer formation in MMTV-Neu mice, including those treated with DMBA. These results demonstrate the potential utility of this murine model for additional chemoprevention studies.

Project description:CDC25A is a critical target of checkpoint, and its overexpression is observed in various cancers. Here we demonstrate that in vivo levels of Cdc25A expression determine the efficiency of transformation and tumorigenesis. Transgenic expression of CDC25A in murine mammary glands cooperates with tumorigenesis induced by expression of ras or neu. CDC25A- overexpressing tumors display aggressiveness and genomic instability with changes in fragile chromosomal regions, including the region orthologous to human 1p32-36. Experiment Overall Design: Genomic DNA from a MMTV-cdc25a;MMTV-neu double transgenic murine cell line derived from a mammary tumor was compared to normal mammary tissue DNA from the parental strain. A total of two hybridizations were completed.

Project description:The objective of this study was to determine the effect of Thyroid Hormone Responsive Protein Spot14 (Spot14) overexpression on the gene expression profiles of tumors from MMTV-Neu mice. Hemizygous MMTV-Neu and MMTV-Spot14 mice were bred and 1 cm tumors from Neu control or Neu/Spot14 bitransgenic offspring were profiled using Affymetrix gene arrays. Tumors from Neu/Spot14 mice emerged significantly earlier than controls, but expressed many genes associated with lactogenic differentiation and were not highly metastatic. These results from the mouse model are consistent with observations from primary human breast tumors, which indicate that high Spot14 gene expression was directly correlated with a luminal subtype and a positive ER status. Overexpression of Spot14 in cultured mammary epithelial cells stimulated proliferation but not differentiation. Together, these data suggest that, in vivo, Spot14 is expressed in well-differentiated cells, and promotes the expansion of this population in the context of oncogenic signaling pathway activation. Microarray analysis was performed on 13 mammary tumors from MMTV-Neu mice and 9 tumors from MMTV-Neu/MMTV-Spot14 mice.

Project description:ErbB-2 overexpression and amplification occurs in 15 - 30% of human invasive breast carcinomas associated with poor clinical prognosis. Previously, we have demonstrated that four ErbB-2/Neu tyrosine-autophosphorylation sites within the cytoplasmic tail of the receptor recruit distinct adaptor proteins and are sufficient to mediate transforming signals in vitro. Two of these sites representing the Grb2 (Neu-YB) and Shc (Neu-YD) binding sites can induce mammary tumourigenesis and metastasis. Here we show that Neu-YC and Neu-YE transgenic mice develop metastatic mammary tumours. A detailed comparison of pathological and transcriptional profiles among all Neu mutant mouse models revealed that Neu-YC, -YD and -YE mammary tumours shared similar pathological and transcriptional features correlating with their capacity to signal through a common adaptor like Shc. In contrast, the Neu-YB mouse model displayed a unique pathology with a high metastatic potential that correlates with a distinct transcriptional profile. We identified genes specifically expressed in YB-induced mammary tumours, including CXCL12/SDF-1α that promotes malignant tumour progression. Furthermore, Neu-YB tumour epithelial cells showed abundant intracellular CXCL12/SDF-1α protein, which may reflect the more aggressive phenotype among all Neu mutant mouse models. These findings indicate that activation of distinct Neu-coupled signalling pathways has a deep impact on the biological behaviour of Neu-induced tumours. Experiment Overall Design: Total RNA was isolated from 10 individual flash frozen mammary tumour samples derived from our MMTV/neundl-NYPD, -YB, -YC, -YD, -YE and the parental MMTV/neu NDL2-5 strains. Two RNA pools, containing equal amount of total RNA from five individual tumours, were generated from each strain and functioned as a biological repeat. Five hundred nanograms of total RNA from each pool was subjected to one round of T7 linear amplification using the Amino Allyl MessageAmpTM aRNA Kit (Ambion, Austin, Texas). Ten micrograms of the resulting aRNA was labelled with Cy3 and Cy5 dyes. Each of the 12 Samples represents a dyeswap pair.
