Abstract Background Tamoxifen resistance remains a significant clinical challenge for the therapy of ER-positive breast cancer. It has been reported that the upregulation of transcription factor SOX9 in ER+ recurrent cancer is sufficient for tamoxifen resistance. However, the mechanisms underlying the regulation of SOX9 remain largely unknown. Methods The acetylation level of SOX9 was detected by immunoprecipitation and western blotting. The expressions of HDACs and SIRTs were evaluated by qRT-PCR. Cell growth was measured by performing MTT assay. ALDH-positive breast cancer stem cells were evaluated by flow cytometry. Interaction between HDAC5 and SOX9 was determined by immunoprecipitation assay. Results Deacetylation is required for SOX9 nuclear translocation in tamoxifen-resistant breast cancer cells. Furthermore, HDAC5 is the key deacetylase responsible for SOX9 deacetylation and subsequent nuclear translocation. In addition, the transcription factor C-MYC directly promotes the expression of HDAC5 in tamoxifen resistant breast cancer cells. For clinical relevance, high SOX9 and HDAC5 expression are associated with lower survival rates in breast cancer patients treated with tamoxifen. Conclusions This study reveals that HDAC5 regulated by C-MYC is essential for SOX9 deacetylation and nuclear localisation, which is critical for tamoxifen resistance. These results indicate a potential therapy strategy for ER+ breast cancer by targeting C-MYC/HDAC5/SOX9 axis.

In the current study, we demonstrate that integrin α3β1 promotes invasive and metastatic traits of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells through induction of the transcription factor, Brain-2 (Brn-2). We show that RNAi-mediated suppression of α3β1 in MDA-MB-231 cells caused reduced expression of Brn-2 mRNA and protein and reduced activity of the BRN2 gene promoter. In addition, RNAi-targeting of Brn-2 in MDA-MB-231 cells decreased invasion in vitro and lung colonization in vivo, and exogenous Brn-2 expression partially restored invasion to cells in which α3β1 was suppressed. α3β1 promoted phosphorylation of Akt in MDA-MB-231 cells, and treatment of these cells with a pharmacological Akt inhibitor (MK-2206) reduced both Brn-2 expression and cell invasion, indicating that α3β1-Akt signaling contributes to Brn-2 induction. Analysis of RNAseq data from patients with invasive breast carcinoma revealed that high BRN2 expression correlates with poor survival. Moreover, high BRN2 expression positively correlates with high ITGA3 expression in basal-like breast cancer, which is consistent with our experimental findings that α3β1 induces Brn-2 in TNBC cells. Together, our study demonstrates a pro-invasive/pro-metastatic role for Brn-2 in breast cancer cells and identifies a role for integrin α3β1 in regulating Brn-2 expression, thereby revealing a novel mechanism of integrin-dependent breast cancer cell invasion.

Macrophage colony-stimulating factor is a vital factor in maintaining the biological function of monocyte–macrophage lineage. It is expressed in many tumor tissues and cancer cells. Recent findings indicate that macrophage colony-stimulating factor might contribute to chemoresistance, but the precise mechanisms are unclear. This study was to explore the effect of macrophage colony-stimulating factor on doxorubicin resistance in MCF-7 breast cancer cells and the possible mechanism. In the study, the human breast cancer cells, MCF-7, were transfected with macrophage colony-stimulating factor. We document that cytoplasmic macrophage colony-stimulating factor induces doxorubicin resistance and inhibits apoptosis in MCF-7 cells. Further studies demonstrated that cytoplasmic macrophage colony-stimulating factor-mediated apoptosis inhibition was dependent on the activation of PI3K/Akt/Survivin pathway. More importantly, we found that macrophage colony-stimulating factor-induced autophagic cell death in doxorubicin-treated MCF-7 cells. Taken together, we show for the first time that macrophage colony-stimulating factor-induced doxorubicin resistance is associated with the changes in cell death response with defective apoptosis and promotion of autophagic cell death.
