Project description:The progression of noninvasive ductal carcinoma in situ to invasive ductal carcinoma for patients with breast cancer results in a significantly poorer prognosis and is the precursor to metastatic disease. In this work, we have identified insulin-like growth factor–binding protein 2 (IGFBP2) as a potent adipocrine factor secreted by healthy breast adipocytes that acts as a barrier against invasive progression. In line with this role, adipocytes differentiated from patient-derived stromal cells were found to secrete IGFBP2, which significantly inhibited breast cancer invasion. This occurred through binding and sequestration of cancer-derived IGF-II. Moreover, depletion of IGF-II in invading cancer cells using small interfering RNAs or an IGF-II–neutralizing antibody ablated breast cancer invasion, highlighting the importance of IGF-II autocrine signaling for breast cancer invasive progression. Given the abundance of adipocytes in the healthy breast, this work exposes the important role they play in suppressing cancer progression and may help expound upon the link between increased mammary density and poorer prognosis.
Project description:Compared transccriptome of breast cancer in young women to those arising in two mature groups to characterize the underlying biological mechanisms of the breast cancer in Middle Eastern young women. Also, compared the gene expression profile characteristic of the sequential disease stages (ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC)) of breast cancer to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of breast cancer progression in young women.

Also, compared the gene expression profile characteristic of the sequential disease stages (ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC)) of breast cancer to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of breast cancer progression in young women. Analyzed the whole-genome mRNA expression profile from tumor (n=73) and adjacent disease free tissues (n=36) using Affymetrix GeneChip Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Arrays.
Project description:<p>This study comprises prospectively accrued, microdissected fresh frozen samples of multifocal lobular carcinoma <i>in situ</i> (LCIS), ductal carcinoma <i>in situ</i> (DCIS), invasive lobular carcinoma and invasive ductal carcinoma from patients undergoing prophylactic or therapeutic mastectomies after a diagnosis on LCIS diagnosed and managed at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC). Microdissected samples were subjected to paired-end whole exome sequencing on an Illumina HiSeq 2000. The data generated were used to define the landscape of somatic genetic alterations of LCIS, DCIS, invasive lobular carcinoma and invasive ductal carcinoma, to define clonal relatedness of these lesions and to investigate the clonal shifts in the progression from <i>in situ</i> to invasive breast cancer.</p>
Project description:This study identifies progression in breast ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) as it progresses towards triple negative invasive breast cancer (TNBC). Bulk DNA arrayCGH was performed on the C3Tag genetically engineered mouse model that forms human breast-like DCIS and TNBC.
