BackgroundGrowth arrest and DNA-damage-inducible protein 45 alpha (GADD45A) was previously found to be associated with risk of several kinds of human tumors. Here, we studied the expression and clinical significance of GADD45A in breast cancer.MethodsWe performed an immunohistochemical study of GADD45A protein from 419 breast cancer tissues and 116 adjacent non-neoplastic tissues.ResultsSignificantly high GADD45A expression were observed in breast cancer tissues compared with adjacent non-neoplastic tissues (P < 0.001) and were independently correlative with estrogen receptor negative (P = 0.028) and high Ki-67 index (P < 0.001). Kaplan–Meier survival analysis revealed that patients with high GADD45A expression levels had a worse long-term prognosis in triple negative breast cancer (P = 0.041), but it was not an independent prognostic factor in multivariate analysis (P = 0.058).ConclusionsGADD45A expression levels are significantly correlative with estrogen receptor status and Ki-67 index in human breast cancer. Patients with triple negative breast cancer might be stratified into high risk and low risk groups based on the GADD45A expression levels.

526 Background: In breast cancer patients the occurrence of hot flashes as common side effect of tamoxifen therapy may be associated with effective estrogen receptor antagonism dependent on genetic variations of metabolic enzymes and the estrogen receptor. Methods: 742 early breast cancer patients who were randomized to receive tamoxifen, followed by exemestane after 2.5 to 3 years within the Tamoxifen Exemestane Adjuvant Multinational (TEAM) Trial were genotyped for 30 germ line genetic variants of 11 enzymes that are involved in the tamoxifen metabolism and the estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1). These genetic variants were related to the occurrence of hot flashes during the first year of tamoxifen use (primary aim) and during the complete tamoxifen treatment period (secondary aim). A multivariable logistic regression was used to adjust for age and adjuvant chemotherapy. Results: No genetic variant was associated with the occurrence of hot flashes during the first year. Higher age was related to a lower incidence of hot flashes in the first year (adjusted odds ratio 0.94, 95% CI 0.92-0.96; p<0.001). The ESR1 PvuII XbaI CG haplotype (CG/CG vs CG/other + other/other: adjusted odds ratio 0.44, 95% CI 0.21-0.92; p=0.03), ESR1 PvuII XbaI TA haplotype (TA/TA + TA/other vs other/other: adjusted odds ratio 1.86, 95% CI 1.09-3.14; p=0.02) and age (adjusted odds ratio 0.94, 95% CI 0.92-0.97; p<0.001) were associated with the occurrence of hot flashes during the total tamoxifen treatment period. No association was found between the CYP2D6 predicted phenotype and hot flashes. Conclusions: Common polymorphisms in the estrogen receptor-1 might help to predict the occurrence of hot flashes in breast cancer patients treated with adjuvant tamoxifen. If replicated, this may provide clinicians with a tool to offer more personalized hormonal therapy.

Increasing evidence suggests that AnxA2 contributes to invasion and metastasis of breast cancer. However, the clinical significance of AnxA2 expression in breast cancer has not been reported. The expression of AnxA2 in cell lines, tumor tissues, and serum samples of breast cancer patients were analyzed by immunoblotting, immunohistochemistry, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, respectively. We found that AnxA2 was significantly upregulated in tumor tissues and serum samples of breast cancer patients compared with normal controls. The high expression of serum AnxA2 was significantly associated with tumor grades and poor survival of the breast cancer patients. Based on molecular subtypes, AnxA2 expression was significantly elevated in tumor tissues and serum samples of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients compared with other breast cancer subtypes. Our analyses on breast cancer cell lines demonstrated that secretion of AnxA2 is associated with its tyrosine 23 (Tyr23) phosphorylation in cells. The expression of non-phosphomimetic mutant of AnxA2 in HCC1395 cells inhibits its secretion from cells compared to wild-type AnxA2, which further suggest that Tyr23 phosphorylation is a critical step for AnxA2 secretion from TNBC cells. Our analysis of AnxA2 phosphorylation in clinical samples further confirmed that the phosphorylation of AnxA2 at Tyr23 was high in tumor tissues of TNBC patients compared to matched adjacent non-tumorigenic breast tissues. Furthermore, we observed that the diagnostic value of serum AnxA2 was significantly high in TNBC compared with other breast cancer subtypes. These findings suggest that serum AnxA2 concentration could be a potential diagnostic biomarker for TNBC patients.
