Abstract Background Breast cancer (BC), one of the most frequent human tumors, is genetically and histologically heterogeneous. Treatment options can be adapted according to BC subtype. Still, research is necessary to characterize BC biology better and to study potential new treatment options. Murine BC-cell lines can be used as model systems in this respect. Results Here for the first time murine BC-cell line JC was cytogenomically characterized as being complex rearranged and near-tetraploid. Multicolor banding and array comparative genomic hybridization were applied and the result was in silico translated to the human genome. Conclusions Even though being commercially available, cell line JC was yet not much included in BC-research, most likely due to a lack of cytogenomic data. Thus, here comprehensive data is provided on chromosomal aberrations, genomic imbalances and involved breakpoints of JC cell line. Also JC could be characterized as a model for BC of luminal B type, basal-like tumor rather than for luminal A type.

Kanker payudara yang paling banyak ditemukan adalah subtipe luminal A dengan karakteristik Estrogen Reseptor+. Subjek penelitian akan diwakili oleh cell line MCF-7 dan Umbilical Cord Blood Mesenchymal Stem Cell (UCBMSC). Over expression Myc pada kanker payudara mengakibatkan sel kanker menjadi lebih invasif dan terjadi resistensi terhadap terapi hormonal. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengidentifikasi ekspresi gen Myc pada cell line MCF-7 sebelum dan sesudah pemberian sel punca. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain experimental secara in vitro. Sampel menggunakan MCF-7 dan sel punca yang dibagi menjadi 4 kelompok, yaitu K1 (kelompok kontrol MCF-7), K2 (kelompok kontrol sel punca), P1 (perlakuan subkultur MCF-7 dengan sel punca inkubasi 24 jam), dan P2 (inkubasi 48 jam). Kemudian, dilakukan isolasi RNA, sintesis cDNA, dan ekspresi Myc diperiksa menggunakan PCR dan elektroforesis. Analisa data yang digunakan adalan One Way ANOVA dan post-hoc LSD. Hasil analisis bivariat didapatkan p<0,05. Dari uji post-hoc LSD tidak ditemukan perbedaan yang bermakna antara K1 dengan P1, K1 dengan P2, dan K2 dengan P2. Namun, tetap ditemukan perbedaan yang bermakna antara K2 dengan P1 dan P1 dengan P2. Simpulan penelitian ini adalah tidak terdapat perbedaan bermakna ekspresi gen Myc pada subkultur antara MCF-7 breast cancer cell line dengan pemberian sel punca mesenkimal.

Abstract Background: Breast cancer is the most commonly malignant cancers in women, and BIRC5 has been found to be overexpressed in a variety of human tumors. Its expression is associated with the prognosis of many cancers. However, whether BIRC5 mRNA could be used as an independent prognostic factor for breast cancer remains inconsistent in previous studies.Methods: Altered BIRC5 expression in normal tissue relative to various tumor tissue and in breast cancer patients with different molecular subtypes, clinical outcomes and chemotherapy responses were examined using the Oncomine, GOBO and Kaplan-Meier plotter datasets.Results: We found that many breast cancers had increased BIRC5 mRNA expression, and GOBO analysis showed that triple-negative cell lines displayed highest BIRC5 mRNA expression levels in the breast cancer cell line panel. Moreover, BIRC5 high mRNA expression was significantly associated with longer relapse-free survival (RFS) in all breast cancer patients. In particular, sub analysis revealed that high mRNA expression of BIRC5 was significantly associated with better survival in ER positive (HR = 2.05, p = 1e-16), but not in ER negative breast cancer (HR = 1.24, p = 0.1), furthermore, the results also demonstrated that BIRC5 high expression was significantly associated with longer RFS in luminal A (HR = 1.51, p = 3.1e-06) and luminal B (HR = 1.28, p = 0.026).Conclusions: In conclusion, BIRC5 is involved in the development and progression of breast cancer and may be a suitable prognostic marker for human breast cancer.

Abstract INTRODUCTION Treatment options for women with breast cancer brain metastases (BrM) are generally limited to surgery and/or radiotherapy because most systemic therapies do not cross the blood-brain barrier. Androgen receptors (ARs) are frequently expressed in breast cancer and anti-androgenic therapies have been shown to penetrate the central nervous system. In this study, we analyzed the expression of AR in breast cancer BrM to identify patients who may benefit from anti-androgenic therapies. METHODS Consecutive BrM resected in our institution (July 1999-June 2013) were identified from the Anatomic Pathology departmental database. Cases that were signed out as breast origin given the available immunohistochemical profile and clinical history were included. A tissue microarray was constructed using 1 mm cores in triplicates and studied by immunohistochemistry for AR, ER, PR and HER2 (SP107, SP1, IE2, 4B5; Ventana Medical Systems, Tucson AZ, USA). HER2 gene amplification was determined by INFORM HER2 DNA and Chromosome 17 (both by Ventana Medical Systems, Tucson AZ, USA). Immunohistochemistry was used as a surrogate to determine intrinsic subtypes. RESULTS Among 61 breast cancer BrM with available tissue blocks, AR was expressed in 38 (62%) cases. Among BrMs of luminal A subtype (ER+, PR+/-, HER2-, Ki67&lt;16%), 50% expressed AR (n=1/2). Within the luminal B subtype (ER+, PR+/-), all 15 HER2+ BrM expressed AR (100%), while only 50% of HER2- BrM expressed AR (n=8/16). Among 14 BrM of HER2+ subtype (ER-, PR-), 71% expressed AR (n=10/14). Only 30% of triple negative BrM (ER-, PR-, HER2-) were AR+ (n=4/14). CONCLUSION Almost two-thirds of breast cancer BrM expressed AR. HER2+ luminal B and HER2+ subtypes were most likely to be AR+, while only 30% of triple negative BrM were AR+. Our data suggests that certain subtypes of breast cancer BrM are more likely to be AR+ and could serve as a potential therapeutic target.

The aberrantly expressed signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) predicts poor prognosis, primarily in estrogen receptor positive (ER(+)) breast cancers. Activated STAT3 is overexpressed in luminal A subtype cells. The mechanisms contributing to the prognosis and/or subtype relevant features of STAT3 in ER(+) breast cancers are through multiple interacting regulatory pathways, including STAT3-MYC, STAT3-ERα, and STAT3-MYC-ERα interactions, as well as the direct action of activated STAT3. These data predict malignant events, treatment responses and a novel enhancer of tamoxifen resistance. The inferred crosstalk between ERα and STAT3 in regulating their shared target gene-METAP2 is partially validated in the luminal B breast cancer cell line-MCF7. Taken together, we identify a poor prognosis relevant gene set within the STAT3 network and a robust one in a subset of patients. VEGFA, ABL1, LYN, IGF2R and STAT3 are suggested therapeutic targets for further study based upon the degree of differential expression in our model.

Tumor organoids are tridimensional cell culture systems that are generated in vitro from surgically resected patients’ tumors. They can be propagated in culture maintaining several features of the tumor of origin, including cellular and genetic heterogeneity, thus representing a promising tool for precision cancer medicine. Here, we established patient-derived tumor organoids (PDOs) from different breast cancer subtypes (luminal A, luminal B, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-enriched, and triple negative). The established model systems showed histological and genomic concordance with parental tumors. However, in PDOs, the ratio of diverse cell populations was frequently different from that originally observed in parental tumors. We showed that tumor organoids represent a valuable system to test the efficacy of standard therapeutic treatments and to identify drug resistant populations within tumors. We also report that inhibitors of mechanosignaling and of Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP) activation can restore chemosensitivity in drug resistant tumor organoids.
