Towards understanding breast cancer mechanisms to metastasize

ABSTRACT: How organ-specific metastatic traits accumulate in primary tumors remains unknown. We identified a role of the primary tumor stroma in selecting breast cancer cells that are primed for metastasis in the bone. A fibroblast-rich stroma in breast tumors creates a microenvironment that is similar to that of bone metastases in its abundance of the cytokines CXCL12 and IGF1. Heterogeneous breast cancer cell populations growing in such mesenchymal environment evolve towards a preponderance of clones that thrive on CXCL12 and IGF1. Fibroblast-driven selection of bone metastatic clones in mammary tumors is suppressed by CXCL12 and IGF1 receptor inhibition. Thus, a fibroblast-rich stroma in breast tumors can pre-select bone metastatic seeds, promoting the evolution of metastatic traits and the interplay between a primary tumor and its distant metastases.

Affymetrix U133 Plus2 arrays were hybridized according to the manufacturer's procedure using RNA extracted from 47 primary breast tumors. Specific gene sets were evaluated in this cohort.

Polysome-associated mRNA profiling of cancer cells in response to CXCL12 and IGF1

Project description:CXCL12 and IGF1 are key secreting molecules produced by cancer-associated fibroblasts in breast cancer. These factors promote the survival of disseminated cancer cells in the bone marrow. To assess the combined responses elicited by CXCL12 and IGF1, we examined the translating transcriptome of cancer cells in response to these two factors by Translating Ribosome Affinity Purification (TRAP)-RNAseq. MDA-MB-231 cells were engineered to express an EGFP-tagged version of ribosomal protein L10a. This allows the retrieval of polysome-associated mRNA by anti-GFP pull down (TRAP) and profiling the translating transcriptome by RNAseq. EGFP-L10a+ cancer cells were serum starved (0.2% serum) for 24 hours, and then treated with CXCL12 (30ng/mL) + IGF1 (10ng/mL) or CXCL12 (300ng/mL) + IGF1 (100ng/mL) for 6hrs. Two biological replicates were profiled for each condition.

ABCC5 supports osteoclast formation and promotes breast cancer metastasis to bone

Project description:Bone is the primary site of breast cancer metastasis and complications associated with bone metastases can lead to a significantly decreased quality of life in these patients. Thus, it is essential to gain a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms that underlie the emergence and growth of breast cancer skeletal metastases. Methods: To search for novel molecular mediators that influence breast cancer bone metastasis, we generated gene expression profiles from laser capture micro-dissected trephine biopsies of both breast cancer bone metastases and primary breast tumors that metastasized to bone. Bioinformatics analysis identified genes that are differentially expressed in breast cancer bone metastases compared to primary mammary tumors. Results: ABCC5, an ATP-dependent transporter, was found to be overexpressed in breast cancer osseous metastases relative to primary mammary tumors. In addition, ABCC5 was significantly up-regulated in human and mouse breast cancer cell lines with high bone-metastatic potential. Stable knockdown of ABCC5 significant reduced bone metastatic burden and osteolytic bone destruction in mice. The decrease in osteolysis was further associated with diminished osteoclast numbers. Conclusions: Our data, for the first time, suggests that ABCC5 functions as a mediator of breast cancer skeletal metastasis. ABCC5 expression in breast cancer cells is important for the efficient bone resorption mediated by osteoclasts. Hence, ABCC5 may be a potential therapeutic target for breast cancer bone metastasis. primary breast tumors vs. bone trephine biopsies

High-resolution clonal mapping of multi-organ metastasis in triple negative breast cancer

Project description:Most triple negative breast cancers (TNBCs) are aggressively metastatic with a high degree of intratumoral heterogeneity. We employed patient-derived xenograft models established from the breast tumors of patients with treatment-naïve metastatic TNBC to study clonal dynamics during metastasis. Genomic sequencing coupled with high-complexity barcode-mediated clonal tracking revealed robust alterations in clonal architecture between primary tumors and corresponding metastases that were deterministic rather than stochastic. The presence of numerous rare subclones in each metastatic lesion demonstrated that polyclonal seeding occurred and that heterogeneous populations of low-abundance clones were maintained in metastases. An identical population of subclones was enriched in lung, liver, and brain metastases, demonstrating that primary tumor clones harbor properties enabling them to seed and thrive in multiple organ sites. Further, clones that dominated multi-organ metastases shared a genomic lineage. Thus, intrinsic properties of rare primary tumor subclones enable the seeding and colonization of metastases in multiple organ sites.

CXCL12 and IGF1 select for cancer cell populations with enhanced bone metastasis ability

Project description:CXCL12 and IGF1 confer on cancer cells survival advantage. Src potentiates cancer cells' reponse to CXCL12 and IGF1 by strengthening AKT activation. Long-term incubation of CXCL12 and IGF1 select for cancer cells with enhanced Src activity and bone metastasis potential. MDA-MB-231 cells were incubated for three weeks in growth medium of reduced serum concentration (0.2%) with or without CXCL12 (30 ng/ml) and IGF1 (10 ng/ml). Cell populations survive under these condidtions are expanded by regular growth medium with 10% serum. Two biological replicates were profiled for each condition.

Host CLIC4 is essential for breast cancer metastatic competence

Project description:Chloride Intracellular Channel 4 (CLIC4) expression is elevated in the stroma of many cancers. We show that CLIC4 expression is higher in breast cancers from younger women and early stage metastatic disease, portends poor prognosis, and is linked to TGF-β expression. Two murine breast cancer models with lung metastases revealed that ablation of host Clic4 nearly eliminated lung metastases without reducing primary tumor size while Clic4 null tumor cells retained metastatic capability. Thus, CLIC4 is required for host metastatic competence. Deficiencies in circulating pro-metastatic soluble factors were detected in CLIC4 deficient hosts bearing primary tumors. Necrosis and vascular abnormalities were more abundant in primary tumors from CLIC4 deficient hosts than from CLIC4 proficient control hosts. Transcriptional profiles of lungs and primary tumors prior to the onset of metastases indicated that loss of host CLIC4 enhances an inflammatory microenvironment. Thus, CLIC4 expression in human breast cancers may serve as a prognostic biomarker, and targeting host CLIC4 could reduce metastatic competence.

Translating transcriptome of cancer cells in situ in mesenchymal-rich tumor microenvironment

Project description:A mesenchymal rich stroma such as cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in breast tumors favors the selection of cancer clones with enhanced bone metastatic ability. To determine the cancer cell transcriptomic response to the mesenchymal stroma, we supplemented experimental mammary tumours with or without exogenous mesenchymal cells. We used bone marrow-derived human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) as a source of mesenchymal stroma, as MSCs have been shown to undergo CAF-like differentiation. We engineered the cancer cells to express an EGFP-tagged version of ribosomal protein L10a (EGFP-L10a). This allows the retrieval of cancer cell specific transcripts rapidly from whole tumor lysates by translating ribosome affinity purification (TRAP) and direct profiling of cancer cell gene expression patterns when they are in situ. EGFP-10a+ MDA-MB-231 cells were orthotopically injected into the mammary fat pad with or without 1:1 ratio of MSCs. The mammary tumors were retrieved for TRAP-RNAseq profiling after 3 weeks.
