Project description:MDA-MB-231 bone-metastatic subline 1833 and lung metastatic subline 4175 underwent spontaneous ploidy doubling in culture, i.e. the genome approximately duplicated itself gradually. The modal- and hyper-ploid subpopulations during the ploidy transition were sorted into two separate sublines, 1833-Modal and 1833-Hyper for 1833, 4175-Modal and 4175-Hyper for 4175. Their expresssion patterns were compared to each other as well as to other MDA-MB-231 sublines isolated previously by Kang et al. 2003 and Minn et al. 2005. Keywords: Cell type comparison

Keywords: Cell type comparison 19 cell lines were analyzed, including the parental line MDA-MB-231, modal-ploid sublines 1833-Modal and 4175-Modal, hyper-ploid sublines 1833-Hyper and 4175-Hyper, strongly bone-metastatic lines 1833 (the original subline after short culture), 2274, 2268 and 2269, weakly bone-metastatic lines 2293, 2295 and 2297, strongly lung-metastaic lines 4142, 4173, 4175 (the original subline after short culture) and 4180, and weakly lung-metastatic lines SCP6, SCP21 and SCP26. Single sample for each line.
Project description:Metastasis is the main cause of mortality of breast cancer. To explore the mechanisms of arsenic trioxide (ATO) in inhibition of breast cancer metastasis, ATO regulated genes in breast cancer MDA-MB-231 and LM2-4175 cells were studied. After data analysis, ATO regulated genes were involved in TP53, TGFβ and TNFα signaling pathways. Furthermore, TGFβ and TNFα activated genes in breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells were studied.
Project description:Aurora Kinase B and ZAK interaction model
Equivalent of the stochastic model used in "Network pharmacology model predicts combined Aurora B and ZAK inhibition in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells" by Tang et. al. 2018.
The only difference is cell division and partitioning of the components, which are available in the original model for SGNS2.
Project description:To define the molecular regulators of metastasis of triple-negative breast cancer, we conducted a rigorous characterization of four populations of MDA-MB-231 human triple-negative breast cancer cells that display a range of intrinsic spontaneous metastatic capacities in immuno-deficient mice, from non-metastatic to highly metastatic to lung, liver, spleen and spine. PAT-Seq gene expression profiling of primary tumor cells identified the fibroblast growth factor homologous factor, FGF13, as a candidate metastatic virulence gene highly upregulated in aggressively metastatic MDA-MB-231HM tumors.
Project description:CD44, an adhesion molecule that binds to extracellular matrix, primarily to hyaluronan (HA), has been implicated in cancer cell migration, invasion, and metastasis. CD44 has also recently been recognized as a marker for stem cells of several types of cancer. However, the roles of CD44 in the development of bone metastasis still remain unclear. To explore this issue, we established the MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells stably expressing short hairpin RNA against CD44. The CD44-knockdown MDA-MB-231 cells (MDA-MB-231 shCD44-2 and shCD44-3) were analyzed. As control, MDA-MB-231 cells stably expressing shRNA against firefly luciferase (shLuc) were used. Total of three samples. No replicates.
Project description:To define the molecular regulators of metastasis of triple-negative breast cancer, we conducted a rigorous characterization of four isogenic populations of MDA-MB-231 human triple-negative breast cancer cells that display a range of intrinsic spontaneous metastatic capacities in immuno-deficient mice, from non-metastatic to highly metastatic to lung, liver, spleen and spine. PAT-Seq gene expression profiling of primary tumor cells identified the fibroblast growth factor homologous factor, FGF13, as a candidate metastatic virulence gene highly upregulated in aggressively metastatic MDA-MB-231HM tumors.
Project description:LM2-4175 cell line was originally selected from MDA-MB-231,but has more aggressive characteristics in invasion, migration and metastasis. In addition, LM2 cell line specifically metastasizes to lung. To understand the regulatory mechanisms of lung metastasis in breast cancer, we analyzed the chromatin structure of MDA-MB-231 and LM2-4175 cell lines.

To understand the melecular mechanisms of lung metastasis in breast cancer,we analyzed the RNA-seq data of MDA-MB-231 and LM2-4175 cell lines.
