Project description:<p>The identification of efficient and sensitive biomarkers for non-invasive tests is one of the major challenges in cancer diagnosis. To address this challenge, metabolomics is widely applied for identifying biomarkers that detects abnormal changes in cancer patients. Canine mammary tumors exhibit physiological characteristics identical to those in human breast cancer and serve as a useful animal model to conduct breast cancer research. Here, we aimed to provide a reliable large-scale metabolite dataset collected from dogs with mammary tumors, using proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. We identified 55 metabolites in urine samples from 20 benign, 87 malignant, and 49 healthy control subjects. This dataset provides details of mammary tumor-specific metabolites in dogs and insights into cancer-specific metabolic alterations that share similar molecular characteristics.</p>

Project description:The aim of our study was to assess miRNA expression of canine mammary cancer stem cells. Three canine mammary cancer cell lines (CMT-U27, CMT-U309 and P114) were stained using Anti-Sca1 (Stem cell antigen 1) antibodies. The FACS analysis showed 0,3-1% of Sca1+ cells in each of the cell line. The cells were sorted (using FACS Aria II) as Sca1+ and Sca1- and subjected to further analysis of miRNA expression (using Agilent custom miRNA microarray).

Project description:We explored the expression profile of circRNAs in canine mammary tumours using high-throughput sequencing technology. In our study, we analysed the expression profiles of 3 pairs of canine mammary tumours and their adjacent normal tissues. The total RNA was extracted, and a RNA library was constructed. GO (Gene Ontology) and KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) analyses revealed that these genes were mainly concentrated in 14 biological pathways. We selected 11 validated circRNAs and further confirmed the existence of these circRNAs by qRT-PCR. The circRNA-miRNA network diagram was constructed by using Cytoscape software. We found a total of 14851 circRNAs and 106 differentially expressed circRNAs in canine mammary tumours and their adjacent normal tissues (fold change ≥ 2, P ≤ 0.05). There were 64 upregulated circRNAs and 42 downregulated circRNAs. The main GO functions were the regulation of the regulated secretory pathway, the regulation of neurotransmitter secretion and the positive regulation of phagocytosis. Most of these pathways were related to the cGMP-PKG (cyclic guanosine monophosphate) signalling pathway, the cAMP (cyclic adenosine monophosphate) signalling pathway and the OXYTOCIN signalling pathway. CircRNAs have the function of adsorbing miRNA, similar to a sponge, and we further constructed the interaction network of circRNAs and miRNAs. The screened source genes closely related to canine mammary tumours included RYR2, PDE4D, ROCK2, CREB3L2 and UBA3. The screened circRNAs related to canine mammary tumours included chr27:26618544-26687235-, chr26:8194880-8201833+, and chr17:7960861-7967766-.In conclusion, our study uncovered circRNA expression profiles in canine mammary tumours. Moreover, some circRNAs may be used as potential biomarkers for screening dogs with high-risk canine mammary tumours.

Project description:Spontaneous mammary tumours are the most prevalent type of neoplasm in women as well as in female dogs. Even though ovarian hormones, mainly estrogens and progestins, are known to play a key role in mammary tumorigenesis, conflicting reports have been obtained from in vivo and in vitro studies concerning their role, especially of progestins, in mammary tumorigenesis. Prolonged exposure to high levels of progestins during unusually long luteal phase of oestrous cycle is suspected to be the key event in canine mammary tumorigenesis. Accordingly, our previous studies have shown development of mammary hyperplasia in dogs upon prolonged progestin administration. In this study, we used canine cDNA microarrays to identify oncogenic determinants in progestin-induced canine hyperplasia (CMH) and spontaneous tumours (CMC) by comparing them to normal tissue. CMH profile indicated amplification of genes involved in cell proliferation, like PCNA, NPY and RAN, and also alterations in expression of transcription factors and cell adhesion molecules. In addition to amplified cell proliferation signature, CMC profile also identified major alterations in expressions of genes involved in cell motility, cytoskeletal organization and extracellular components. Overall, gene expression profile of CMH indicated an advantage for cell proliferation, whereas that of CMC indicated an advantage for proliferation as well as neoclassic transformation. In conclusion, our findings indicate strong oncogenic potential of progestins in canine mammary gland. In addition, CMC gene expression profile greatly contribute to the identification of their molecular abnormalities and may facilitate the identification of new therapeutic targets.

Project description:Canine mammary gland tumors (CMGTs) are the most common neoplasms in sexually intact female dogs. CMGTs have been suggested as a model for studying human breast cancer because of several similarities, including the relative age of onset, risk factors, incidence, histological and molecular features, biological behavior, metastatic pattern, and responses to therapy. In the present study, we established a new cell line, the SNP cell line, from a CMGT. A tumor formed in each NOD.CB17-Prkdcscid/J mouse at the site of subcutaneous SNP cell injection, with an average size at 7 days after inoculation of 49.9 mm3. SNP cells are characterized by proliferation in a tubulopapillary pattern. Moreover, we examined miRNA expression in the cultured cells and found that the expression values of miRNA-143 and miRNA-138a showed the greatest increase and decrease, respectively, of all miRNAs observed. These miRNAs might therefore play a significant role in the malignancy of SNP cells. SNP cells might serve as a model for future genetic analysis and clinical treatments of human breast tumors.

Project description:[original title] Metastatic Canine Mammary Carcinomas can be Identified by a Gene Expression Profile that partly Overlaps with Human Breast Cancer Profiles. Introduction: Similar to human breast cancer mammary tumors of the female dog are commonly associated with a fatal outcome due to the development of distant metastases. However, the molecular defects leading to metastasis are largely unknown and the value of canine mammary carcinoma as a model for human breast cancer is unclear. In this study, we analyzed the gene expression signatures associated with mammary tumor metastasis and asked for parallels with the human equivalent. Methods: Messenger RNA expression profiles of twenty-seven lymph node metastasis positive or negative canine mammary carcinomas were established by microarray analysis. Differentially expressed genes were functionally characterized and associated with molecular pathways. The findings were also correlated with published data on human breast cancer. Results: Metastatic canine mammary carcinomas had 1,011 significantly differentially expressed genes when compared to non-metastatic carcinomas. Metastatic carcinomas had a significant up-regulation of genes associated with cell cycle regulation, matrix modulation, protein folding and proteasomal degradation whereas cell differentiation genes, growth factor pathway genes and regulators of actin organization were significantly down-regulated. Interestingly, 265 of the 1,011 differentially expressed canine genes are also related to human breast cancer and, vice versa, parts of a human prognostic gene signature were identified in the expression profiles of the metastatic canine tumors. Conclusions: Metastatic canine mammary carcinomas can be discriminated from non-metastatic carcinomas by their gene expression profiles. More than one third of the differentially expressed genes are also described of relevance for human breast cancer. Many of the differentially expressed genes are linked to functions and pathways which appear to be relevant for the induction and maintenance of metastatic progression and may represent new therapeutic targets. Furthermore, dogs are in some aspects suitable as a translational model for human breast tumors in order to identify prognostic molecular signatures and potential therapeutic targets.

Project description:Purpose: the aim of this study was to characterize cell lines derived from canine mammary gland neoplasia which could be further used for basic and applied oncology research. Methods: samples of canine mammary carcinomas were taken to primary culture and two cell lines were well-established and described in terms of tumorigenesis, cell morphology and gene expression profile through RNA-seq analysis. Results: Both cell lines presented spindle-shape morphology and shown common malignancies features such as invasion potential and co-expression of cytoskeleton proteins. Also, we found dysregulations in gene expression patterns between the two cell cultures as well as compared to normal mammary gland tissue. Conclusion: transcriptomic profile of these cell lines contributed to the characterization of potential prognostic and predictive biomarkers and may enable the development of possible therapeutic molecular targets.
