Project description:Sixteen paired matched samples from primary breast cancers and brain metastases diagnosed between April 1, 2001 and December 31, 2012 were collected from 8 institutions. Brain metastases were identified based on magnetic resonance imaging and/or computed tomography findings. The clinical characteristics of all the patients were obtained from their medical records. This study was approved by the institutional review board of each participating institute (Tokai University School of Medicine; National Hospital Organization Osaka National Hospital; Kinki University School of Medicine; Niigata Cancer Center Hospital; Shizuoka General Hospital; Hokkaido Cancer Center; National Hospital Organization, Tokyo Medical Center; and Gunma Prefectural Cancer Center). Matching primary breast cancers and brain metastases Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded (FFPE) specimens for gene expression analysis were collected into RNA. RNA from specimens was isolated, and quantity and quality of the each RNA was using an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies). Genome-wide expression levels of transcripts were analyzed using the Affymetrix U133A gene chips (Affymetrix) according to the manufacture’s instructions.

Project description:Introduction: The incidence of brain metastases in cancer patients is increasing, with lung and breast cancer being the most common sources. Despite advancements in targeted therapies, the prognosis remains poor, highlighting the importance to investigate the underlying mechanisms in brain metastases. The aim of this study was to investigate the differences in the molecular mechanisms involved in brain metastasis of breast and lung cancers. In addition, we aimed to identify cancer lineage-specific druggable targets in the brain metastasis. Methods: To that aim, a cohort of 44 FFPE tissue samples, including 22 breast cancer and 22 lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and their matched-paired brain metastases were collected. Targeted gene expression profiles of primary tumors were compared to their matched-paired brain metastases samples using nCounter PanCancer IO 360™ Panel of NanoString technologies. Pathway analysis was performed using gene set analysis (GSA) and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). The validation was performed by using Immunohistochemistry (IHC) to confirm the expression of immune checkpoint inhibitors. Results: Our results revealed the significant upregulation of cancer-related genes in primary tumors compared to their matched-paired brain metastases (adj. p ≤ 0.05). We found that upregulated differentially expressed genes in breast cancer brain metastasis (BM-BC) and brain metastasis from lung adenocarcinoma (BM-LUAD) were associated with the metabolic stress pathway, particularly related to the glycolysis. Additionally, we found that the upregulated genes in BM-BC and BM-LUAD played roles in immune response regulation, tumor growth, and proliferation. Importantly, we identified high expression of the immune checkpoint VTCN1 in BM-BC, and VISTA, IDO1, NT5E, and HDAC3 in BM-LUAD. Validation using immunohistochemistry further supported these findings. Conclusion: In conclusion, the findings highlight the significance of using matched-paired samples to identify cancer lineage-specific therapies that may improve brain metastasis patients outcomes.

Project description:The central nervous system (CNS) is a common site of metastatic disease in patients with breast cancer and has few therapeutic options with dismal outcomes. The purpose of our study was to identify common and rare events that underlie breast cancer CNS metastasis. We performed deep genomic profiling, which integrated gene copy number, gene expression and DNA methylation datasets on a collection of breast brain metastases. We identified frequent large chromosomal gains in 1q, 5p, 8q, 11q, and 20q and frequent broad level deletions involving 8p, 17p, 21p and Xq. Frequently amplified and overexpressed genes included ATAD2, BRAF, DERL1, DNMTRB and NEK2A. The ATM, CRYAB and HSPB2 genes were commonly deleted and underexpressed. Knowledge mining revealed enrichment in cell cycle and G2/M transition pathways, which contained AURKA, AURKB and FOXM1. Using the PAM50 breast cancer intrinsic classifier, Luminal B, Her2+/ER negative, and basal-like tumors were identified as the most commonly represented breast cancer subtypes in our CNS metastasis cohort. While overall methylation levels were increased in breast cancer CNS metastasis, basal-like CNS metastases were associated with significantly lower levels of methylation. Integrating DNA methylation data with gene expression revealed defects in cell migration and adhesion due to hypermethylation and downregulation of PENK, EDN3, and ITGAM. Hypomethylation and upregulation of KRT8 likely affects adhesion and permeability. Genomic and epigenomic profiling of breast CNS metastasis has provided insight into the somatic events underlying this disease, which have potential in forming the basis of future therapeutic strategies. Three sample-types: 35 Breast Brain Metastasis samples, 10 Non-Neoplastic Brain samples, and 10 Non-Neoplastic Breast samples.

Project description:Brain metastasis is one of the most feared complications of cancer and the most common intracranial malignancy in adults. Its underlying mechanisms remain unknown. From breast cancer patients with metastatic disease we isolated cell populations that aggressively colonize the brain. Transcriptomic analysis of these cells yielded overlapping gene sets whose expression is selectively associated with brain metastasis. The expression of seventeen of these genes in primary breast tumors is associated with brain relapse in breast cancer patients. Some of these genes are also associated with metastasis to lung but not to liver, bone or lymph nodes, providing a molecular basis for the long-observed clinical link between brain and lung metastasis. Among the functionally validated brain metastasis genes, the cyclooxygenase COX-2, the EGFR ligand HB-EGF, and the brain-specific α2-6 sialyltransferase ST6GALNAC5 mediate cancer cell passage through the blood-brain barrier. Other brain metastasis genes encode inflammatory factors and brain-specific proteolytic regulators, suggesting a multifaceted program for breast cancer colonization of the brain.

Project description:Breast cancer is the leading type of cancer in women. Breast cancer brain metastasis is considered as an essential issue in breast cancer patients. Membrane proteins play important roles in breast cancer brain metastasis that contributes to the cell adhesion and penetration of blood-brain barrier. To achieve a deeper insight of the mechanism of breast cancer brain metastasis, liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was performed to analyze the enriched membrane proteomes from six different breast cancer cell lines. Quantitative proteomic data of all cell lines were compared with MDA-MB-231BR which has the specific brain metastasis capacity. 1239 proteins were identified and 990 were quantified with more than 70% of membrane proteins in all cell lines. Each cell line can be separated apart from others in PCA. Ingenuity pathway analysis (IPA) supported the high brain metastatic ability of 231BR and suggested importance of the up-regulation of integrin proteins and down-regulation of EPHA in brain metastasis. 28 proteins were observed unique expression alteration in 231BR. The up-regulation of NPM1, hnRNP Q, hnRNP K and eIF3l and the down-regulation of TUBB4B and TUBB were observed to be associated with the brain metastasis cell line and may contributes to the breast cancer brain metastasis.

Experiment Overall Design: Two different breast cancer cell lines, MDA-MB-231 and freshly isolated pleural effusion CN34 were used in this study. The MDA-MB-231 group contains three biological replicates of the parental, unselected population, and 4 brain metastatic isolates. CN34 contains 2 biological replicates of the parental, unselected population, and 4 brain metastatic isolates. In each case, the parental population was compared to the brain metastatic isolates to identify gene expression changes associated with the brain metastatic phenotype.

Project description:Breast cancer brain metastasis remains largely incurable. While several mouse models have been developed to investigate the genes and mechanisms regulating breast cancer brain metastasis, these models often lack clinical relevance since they require the use of immune-compromised mice and/or are poorly metastatic to brain from the mammary gland. We describe the development and characterization of an aggressive brain metastatic variant of the 4T1 syngeneic model (4T1Br4) that spontaneously metastasises to lung, bone and brain but is selectively more metastatic to the brain from the mammary gland than parental 4T1 tumors. The 4T1Br4 model will provide a clinically relevant tool to evaluate novel therapies against brain metastasis.
