Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) shares overlap with the basal molecular subtype of breast cancer and is more frequently diagnosed in African-American (black) women for reasons not understood (1,2). To understand genes whose expression may be of pertinence to the development or progression of triple negative breast cancer, we mined published microarray data (3,4) comparing global gene expression profiles of TNBC histology groups, identifying genes whose expression changed the least between among TNBCs, suggesting that these genes may be important for TNBC biology. We identified the MER proto-oncogene tyrosine kinase MERTK and the Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome candidate 1-like 1 WHSC1L1 among the genes whose expression differed the least when comparing TNBC cases and subtypes. In another dataset, MERTK and WHSCL1 were found to be differentially expressed in TNBC when comparing primary tumors of the breast to normal breast tissue. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis revealed that expression levels of MERTK and WHSCL1 correlated with survival outcomes in human breast cancer, and that this correlation differed based on race of the patient. MERTK and WHSCL1 may be of relevance in understanding the etiology or progression of triple negative breast cancer.

In vitro studies of a disease are key to any in vivo investigation in understanding the disease and developing new therapy regimens. Immortalized cancer cell lines are the best and easiest model for studying cancer in vitro. Here, we report the establishment of a naturally immortalized highly tumorigenic and triple-negative breast cancer cell line, KAIMRC2. This cell line is derived from a Saudi Arabian female breast cancer patient with invasive ductal carcinoma. Immunocytochemistry showed a significant ratio of the KAIMRC2 cells’ expressing key breast epithelial and cancer stem cells (CSCs) markers, including CD47, CD133, CD49f, CD44, and ALDH-1A1. Gene and protein expression analysis showed overexpression of ABC transporter and AKT-PI3Kinase as well as JAK/STAT signaling pathways. In contrast, the absence of the tumor suppressor genes p53 and p73 may explain their high proliferative index. The mice model also confirmed the tumorigenic potential of the KAIMRC2 cell line, and drug tolerance studies revealed few very potent candidates. Our results confirmed an aggressive phenotype with metastatic potential and cancer stem cell-like characteristics of the KAIMR2 cell line. Furthermore, we have also presented potent small molecule inhibitors, especially Ryuvidine, that can be further developed, alone or in synergy with other potent inhibitors, to target multiple cancer-related pathways.

Abstract Background The current epidemiology shows that the incidence of breast cancer is increasing year by year and tends to be younger. Triple-negative breast cancer is the most malignant of breast cancer subtypes. The application of bioinformatics in tumor research is becoming more and more extensive. This study provided research ideas and basis for exploring the potential targets of gene therapy for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Methods We analyzed three gene expression profiles (GSE64790、GSE62931、GSE38959) selected from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. The GEO2R online analysis tool was used to screen for differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between TNBC and normal tissues. Gene Ontology (GO) function and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis were applied to identify the pathways and functional annotation of DEGs. Protein–protein interaction network of these DEGs were visualized by the Metascape gene-list analysis tool so that we could find the protein complex containing the core genes. Subsequently, we investigated the transcriptional data of the core genes in patients with breast cancer from the Oncomine database. Moreover, the online Kaplan–Meier plotter survival analysis tool was used to evaluate the prognostic value of core genes expression in TNBC patients. Finally, immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to evaluated the expression level and subcellular localization of CCNB2 on TNBC tissues. Results A total of 66 DEGs were identified, including 33 up-regulated genes and 33 down-regulated genes. Among them, a potential protein complex containing five core genes was screened out. The high expression of these core genes was correlated to the poor prognosis of patients suffering breast cancer, especially the overexpression of CCNB2. CCNB2 protein positively expressed in the cytoplasm, and its expression in triple-negative breast cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in adjacent tissues. Conclusions CCNB2 may play a crucial role in the development of TNBC and has the potential as a prognostic biomarker of TNBC.

: The mechanisms governing the development and progression of cancers are believed to be the consequence of hereditary deformities and epigenetic modifications. Accordingly, epigenetics has become an incredible and progressively explored field of research to discover better prevention and therapy for neoplasia, especially triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). It represents 15–20% of all invasive breast cancers and will, in general, have bellicose histological highlights and poor clinical outcomes. In the early phases of triple-negative breast carcinogenesis, epigenetic deregulation modifies chromatin structure and influences the plasticity of cells. It up-keeps the oncogenic reprogramming of malignant progenitor cells with the acquisition of unrestrained selfrenewal capacities. Genomic impulsiveness in TNBC prompts mutations, copy number variations, as well as genetic rearrangements, while epigenetic remodeling includes an amendment by DNA methylation, histone modification, and noncoding RNAs of gene expression profiles. It is currently evident that epigenetic mechanisms assume a significant part in the pathogenesis, maintenance, and therapeutic resistance of TNBC. Although TNBC is a heterogeneous malaise that is perplexing to describe and treat, the ongoing explosion of genetic and epigenetic research will help to expand these endeavors. Latest developments in transcriptome analysis have reformed our understanding of human diseases, including TNBC at the molecular medicine level. It is appealing to envision transcriptomic biomarkers to comprehend tumor behavior more readily regarding its cellular microenvironment. Understanding these essential biomarkers and molecular changes will propel our capability to treat TNBC adequately. This review will depict the different aspects of epigenetics and the landscape of transcriptomics in triple-negative breast carcinogenesis and their impending application for diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment decision with the view of molecular medicine.
