Gene expression profiles of p53 depleted human mammary epithelial cells with their Ras-infected epithelial and mesenchymal derivatives

ABSTRACT: The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is an embryonic transdiffrentiation program which consists of the conversion of polarized epithelial cells into a motile mesenchymal phenotype. EMT is aberrantly reactivated during tumor progression, promoting metastatic dissemination. Herein, we demonstrate that EMT permissive conditions also favor tumor initiation by minimizing the number of events required for neoplastic transformation. We further demonstrated that even partial commitment of human mammary epithelial cells into an EMT program is sufficient to confer malignant properties, suggesting that the reactivation of embryonic EMT inducers participate to the primary tumor growth long before the initiation of the invasion-metastasis cascade.

Human mammary epithelial cells (HMEC) were sequentially depleted in p53 through RNA interference (shp53), transduced with H-RasG12V and immortalized by hTert. Two different Tert/shp53/Ras cell population emerge that display either an epithelial (Epi) or a mesenchymal (Mes) phenotype. Gene expression profiles of the Tert/shp53 control cells and of tert/shp53/Ras/Epi and Tert/shp53/Ras/Mes were analyzed.

Selvaggio2020 - Microenvironment control of hybrid Epithelial-Mesenchymal phenotypes

Project description:Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) has been associated with cancer cell heterogeneity, plasticity and metastasis. It has been the subject of several modeling effort. This logical model of the EMT cellular network aims to assess microenvironmental signals controlling cancer-associated phenotypes amid the EMT continuum. Its outcomes relate to the qualitative degrees of cell adhesions by adherent junctions and focal adhesions, two features affected during EMT. Model attractors recover epithelial, mesenchymal and hybrid phenotypes, and simulations show that hybrid phenotypes may arise through independent molecular paths, involving stringent extrinsic signals. Of particular interest, model predictions and their experimental validations indicated that: 1) ECM stiffening is a prerequisite for cells overactivating FAK-SRC to upregulate SNAIL1 and acquire a mesenchymal phenotype, and 2) FAK-SRC inhibition of cell-cell contacts through the Receptor Protein Tyrosine Phosphates kappa leads to the acquisition of a full mesenchymal rather than a hybrid phenotype.

TWIST1-induced microRNA-424 drives an intermediate epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition that opposes metastasis

Project description:Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a dynamic process that relies on cellular plasticity; an EMT/MET axis is critical for metastatic colonization of carcinomas. Unlike epithelial programming, regulation of mesenchymal programming is not well understood in EMT. Here we describe the first microRNA that enhances exclusively mesenchymal programming. We demonstrate that microRNA-424 is up-regulated early during a TWIST1/SNAI1-induced EMT, and that it causes cells to express mesenchymal genes without affecting epithelial genes, resulting in a mixed/intermediate EMT. Further, microRNA-424 increases motility, decreases adhesion and induces a growth arrest, changes associated with a complete EMT. Patient microRNA-424 levels positively associate with TWIST1/2 and EMT-like gene signatures and is increased in primary tumors versus matched normal breast. However, microRNA-424 is down-regulated in metastases versus matched primary tumors. Correspondingly, microRNA-424 decreases tumor initiation and is post-transcriptionally down-regulated in macrometastases in mice. RNA-seq identified microRNA-424 regulates numerous genes associated with EMT and breast cancer stemness including the novel miR-424 target, TGFBR3, which regulates mesenchymal phenotypes without influencing miR-424 effects on tumor-initiating phenotypes; instead, we show that ERK signaling is critical for such tumor-initiating effects of miR-424. These findings suggest microRNA-424 plays distinct roles downstream of EMT-inducing factors, facilitating earlier stages, but repressing later stages, of metastasis. Examination of mRNA levels in MCF12A human breast cell lines that stably over-expressed miR-424 or an empty vector (EV) control. Each group has three replicates.

Expression data of mammary epithelial cells during the epithelial-mesenchymal transition

Project description:The EMT program allows epithelial cells to become endowed with motility, invasiveness and stem cell traits. We investigated difference in signaling networks that are differentially utilized in EMTed and non-EMTed cells, thereby identifying therapeutic targets that are unique to EMT/cancer stem cells. We expressed the EMT transcription factors, Twist, Snail and Slug in HMLE human mammary epithelial cells, and compared their gene expression with parental cells. We identified kinases that are more differentially regulated between the epithelial and mesenchymal cell state.

Therapeutic induction of mesenchymal-epithelial transition via epigenetic reprogramming curtails metastatic progression and sensitizes breast cancers to treatment [RNA-seq]

Project description:The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a developmental program that is co-opted by tumor cells to aid in their embarking on the metastatic cascade. Tumor cells that undergo EMT are known to be endowed by, amongst other traits, heightened resistance to chemotherapy. Despite a clear understanding of the role played by the EMT program in conferring cells with these aggressive traits, there are currently no therapeutic avenues specifically targeting the program. Here we show that treatment of mesenchymal-like breast cancer cells with eribulin, an FDA-approved drug for the treatment of advanced breast cancers, leads to a mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET), accompanied by a loss of metastatic propensity and sensitization of tumor cells to subsequent rounds of chemotherapy. We uncover a novel alternate mechanism of action that provides evidence for eribulin pretreatment as a viable clinical mechanism of MET induction that curtails metastatic progression and the evolution of therapy resistance.
