AbstractTriple-negative breast cancer is the most aggressive subtype of invasive breast cancer with a poor prognosis and no approved targeted therapy. Hence, the identification of new and specific ligands is essential to develop novel targeted therapies. In this study, we aimed to identify new aptamers that bind to highly metastatic breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells using the cell-SELEX technology aided by high throughput sequencing. After 8 cycles of selection, the aptamer pool was sequenced and the 25 most frequent sequences were aligned for homology within their variable core region, plotted according to their free energy and the key nucleotides possibly involved in the target binding site were analyzed. Two aptamer candidates, Apt1 and Apt2, binding specifically to the target cells with $$K_{d}$$ K d values of 44.3 ± 13.3 nM and 17.7 ± 2.7 nM, respectively, were further validated. The binding analysis clearly showed their specificity to MDA-MB-231 cells and suggested the targeting of cell surface receptors. Additionally, Apt2 revealed no toxicity in vitro and showed potential translational application due to its affinity to breast cancer tissue sections. Overall, the results suggest that Apt2 is a promising candidate to be used in triple-negative breast cancer treatment and/or diagnosis.

Abstract Background: Gastric cancer is the fourth most common malignant disease. Both CDK10 and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been found to exert biological functions in multiple cancers. However, it is still unclear whether CDK10 represses tumor progression in gastric cancer by reducing potential targeting lncRNAs.Methods: The functions of CDK10 and lncRNA-C5ORF42-5 in proliferation, invasion and migration were assessed by MTS assays, colony formation assays, cell cycle and apoptosis assays, Transwell assays, wound healing assays and animal experiments. We used high-throughput sequencing to confirm the existence of lncRNA-C5ORF42-5 and quantitative real-time PCR was used to evaluate lncRNA expression. Then, with RNA-seq sequencing as well as GO function and KEGG enrichment analysis, we identified the signaling pathways in which lncRNA-C5ORF42-5 was involved in gastric cancer. Finally, western blotting was used to identify the genes regulated by lncRNA-C5ORF42-5.Results: Our results showed that CDK10 is expressed at relatively low levels in gastric cancer cell lines and inhibits the progression of gastric cancer cells both in vitro and in vivo. Next, based on high-throughput sequencing, we identified a novel lncRNA, lncRNA-C5ORF42-5, in the stable CDK10-overexpressing cell line compared with the CDK-knockdown cell line and their controls. Additionally, we confirmed that lncRNA-C5ORF42-5 acts as an oncogene to promote metastasis in gastric cancer in vitro and in vivo. We then ascertained that lncRNA-C5ORF42-5 is a major contributor to the function of CDK10 in gastric cancer metastasis by upregulating lncRNA-C5ORF42-5 to reverse the effects of CDK10 overexpression. Finally, we explored the mechanism by which lncRNA-C5ORF42-5 overexpression affects gastric cancer cells to elucidate whether lncRNA-C5ORF42-5 may increase the activity of the SMAD pathway of BMP signaling and promote the expression of EMT-related proteins, such as E-cadherin. Additionally, overexpression of lncRNA-C5ORF42-5 affected the phosphorylation levels of AKT and ERK.Conclusion: Our findings suggest that CDK10 overexpression represses gastric cancer tumor progression by reducing lncRNA-C5ORF42-5 and hindering activation of the related proteins in metastatic signaling pathways, which provides new insight into developing effective therapeutic strategies in the treatment of metastatic gastric cancer.

The frequency of structural chromosomal transpositions can range from 1.8 to 8% among patients with reproductive disorders. There are several types of the rarest chromosomal abnormalities: insertion (insertion of a chromosomal region) and inversion (rotation of a chromosome region). This article describes a clinical case of the infertility treatment using assisted reproductive technologies in a woman with a rare chromosomal abnormality: simultaneous insertion and inversion of chromosomes 46, XX, ins (13;4)(q34;p14p15.3), inv(4)(p14q12). The structure and frequency of chromosomal aberrations were determined by high-throughput sequencing in preimplantation embryos. The result of the sequencing analysis showed that unbalanced variants for a known pathology were detected in 9 (56.3%) out of 16 observations, while in 6 (37%) only for a pathology known in the karyotype and in 3 (19%) they were presented simultaneously with the pathology of other chromosomes or with mosaicism. According to the results of the study, in preimplantation embryos, where one of the parents had chromosomal abnormalities, in addition to unbalanced variants, there is aneuploidy of other chromosomes not involved in the known pathology. They are described in 3 (21%) out of 14 observations of all identified pathology. In this regard, patients with aberrations in the karyotype are recommended, whenever possible, to carry out preimplantation genetic testing of structural rearrangements by methods allowed to analyze all chromosomes simultaneously. For example, high-throughput sequencing on the Illumina platform may become an alternative for prenatal diagnostics, which is performed in fertile couples with high risk of having a child with hereditary or congenital disorders. In the case of detection of chromosomal changes in the fetus, patients are faced with a number of ethical issues related to the necessity for medical abortion, which may contradict their religious and moral convictions.

e13045 Background: Compared to lumial breast cancer, the proporation of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) with bone metastases (BMs) is relatively low and few data focusing on the mechanism of the BMs in TNBC are available, Here, we screened that CTNND1 was associated with BMs of TNBC by integrating high-throughput sequencing, and further investigated the role of CTNND1 in BMs of TNBC in vitro. Methods: TNBC tissue samples with only BMs (n = 6) and without any metastasis (n = 10) were tested using high-throughput sequencing and 11 differentially expressed relative genes were identified. We then quantified these 11 genes in normal breast tissue samples (n = 26), TNBC tissue samples with only BMs (n = 10), TNBC tissue samples without any metastasis (n = 88) as well as luminal tissue samples with BMs（n = 10）through qPCR and immunohistochemical staining (IHC). The effects of knocking down CTNND1 on the interaction between TNBC cells and osteoblasts were examined by cell adhesion, transwell migration and matrigel invasion assays. To explorethe role of CTNND1 in mediating bone metastasis in TNBC, we used RNA-sequencing to find out the relative downstream gene CXCR4 and PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway and verified it in vitro by Western Blotting. Results: Combining our high-throughput sequencing data, qPCR and IHC in clinical tissue samples, we verified that CTNND1 was decreased in TNBC patients with bone metastasis compared to normal tissue and luminal tissue with BMs. Knocking down of CTNND1 in TNBC cells including MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-468 and BT549 weakened cells adhesion, but facilitated cells migration and invasion. Mechanically, knocking down of CTNND1 upregulated CXCR4 via activating PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway in TNBC but not luminal and HER2- positive breast cancer cells lines. Conclusions: CTNND1 mediates bone metastasis in triple-negative breast cancer via regulating CXCR4.CTNND1 may serve as a potential predictor of bone metastasis for TNBC patients.
