Transcriptional Phenotype

Background: P120-catenin is a member of the Armadillo protein family, which is involved in intercellular adhesion and cell signalling. It directly interacts with the classical cadherins juxtamembrane domain and contributes for both junction formation and its disassembly. Accumulating evidences indicate that p120-catenin is important in tumour formation and progression, although the role of their multiple spliced isoforms in the regulation of cadherin-mediated adhesion of malignant cells is still not well understood. We investigated the expression of p120-catenin isoforms in a collection of breast cancer cell lines with distinct molecular profiles and expressing different cadherins. Methods: We assessed the expression by RT-PCR and Western-blotting analysis. Results: We observed that the expression of p120-catenin isoforms was associated with the genomic and transcriptional phenotype of breast cancer cells. Besides, the recruitment of p120-catenin isoforms was not apparently related with the particular expression of E-, P- or N-cadherin. Conclusion: We demonstrate that mammary tumour cells exhibit a characteristic p120-catenin isoform expression profile, depending from their specific genomic and transcriptional properties. These particular expression patterns, combined with other regulatory proteins and in a specific cellular context, may explain how p120-catenin can either contribute to strength intercellular adhesions or instead to promote cell motility.

The molecular classification for breast carcinomas has been used in clinical studies with a simple surrogate panel of immunohistochemistry (IHC) markers. The objective of this current project was to study the molecular classification of commonly used breast cancer cell lines by IHC analysis. Seventeen breast cancer cell lines were harvested, fixed in formalin and made into cell blocks. IHC analyses were performed on each cell block with antibodies to estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), HER2, EGFR, CK5/6, Ki-67 and androgen receptor (AR). Among the 17 cell lines, MCF-7 and ZR-75-1 fell to Luminal A subtype; BT-474 to Luminal B subtype; SKBR-3, MDA-MD-435 and AU 565 to HER2 over-expression subtype; MDA-MB-231, MCF-12A, HBL 101, HS 598 T, MCF-10A, MCF-10F, BT-20, 468 and BT-483 to basal subtype. MDA-MB-453 belonged to Unclassified subtype. Since each subtype defined by this IHC-based molecular classification does show a distinct clinical outcome, attention should be paid when choosing a cell line for any study.

Gene expression data and FTIR spectra provide a similar phenotypic description of breast cancer cell lines in 2D and 3D cultures

Background: Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the second leading cause of cancer deaths among Canadian women. Cancer management through changes in lifestyle, such as increased intake of foods rich in dietary flavonoids, have been shown to decrease the risk associated with breast, liver, colorectal, and upper-digestive cancers in epidemiologic studies. Onions are high in flavonoid content and one of the most common vegetables. Additionally, onions are used in most Canadian cuisines.Methods: We investigated the effect of five prominent Ontario grown onion (Stanley, Ruby Ring, LaSalle, Fortress, and Safrane) extracts on two subtypes of breast cancer cell lines: a triple negative breast cancer line MDA-MB-231 and an ER+ breast cancer line MCF-7.Results: These onion extracts elicited strong anti-proliferative, anti-migratory, and cytotoxic activities on both the cancer cell lines. Flavonoids present in these onion extracts induced apoptosis, cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase, and a reduction in mitochondrial membrane potential at dose-dependent concentrations. Onion extracts were more effective against MDA-MB-231 compared to the MCF-7 cell line. Conclusion: In this study, we investigated the extracts synthesized from Ontario-grown onion varieties in inducing anti-migratory, cytostatic, and cytotoxic activities in two sub-types of human breast cancer cell lines. Anti-tumor activity of these extracts depends upon the varietal and can be formulated into nutraceuticals and functional foods for the wellbeing of cancer patients. Overall, the results suggest that onion extracts are a good source of flavonoids with anti-cancerous properties.Keywords: onion extracts; flavonoids; anti-proliferative; breast cancer; cytotoxic activity
