Using whole genome microarray (Affymetrix ATH1) we studied the transcriptional response of Arabidopsis thaliana to imidazolinone (Arsenal) herbicde that inhibits acetolactate synthase (ALS) enzyme and thus disrupts branched chain amino acid biosynthesis. A number of genes related to amino acid, protein metabolism, growth, regulatory networks, respiratory pathways, stress, defense and secondary metabolism were altered.

View SamplesE-cadherin (E-cad) mediates cell-cell adhesion and has been proposed to suppress both invasion and metastasis. However, invasive ductal cancers retain E-cad expression in the primary tumor, circulating tumor cells, and distant metastases. We recently demonstrated that cancer cell clusters are efficient metastatic seeds. Since clusters organize through cell-cell adhesion, we tested the requirement for E-cad in genetically engineered mouse models of luminal and basal breast cancer. Loss of E-cad increased invasion and dissemination in 3D culture and in the mammary gland. However, E-cad loss also reduced cancer cell proliferation, survival, tumor cell seeding, and metastatic outgrowth in the lungs. At the transcript level, loss of E-cad was associated with increased apoptosis. Consistent with these results, inhibition of apoptosis partially rescued the metastatic phenotype of E-cad null cancer cells. We therefore propose that E-cad is an invasion suppressor, survival factor, and metastasis promoter in invasive ductal cancers. Overall design: Differential gene expression analysis between organoids isolated from adeno-Cre transduced MMTV-PyMT E-cad+/+ (r = 4 biological replicates) and adeno-Cre transduced MMTV-PyMT E-cadfl/fl (r = 5 biological replicates)

View SamplesThe tyrosine kinase receptors HER2 and HER3 play an important role in breast cancer. The HER2/HER3 heterodimer is a critical oncogenic unit associated with reduced relapse-free and decreased overall survival. We provide gene expression profile of the mammary epithelial cells MCF10A expressing HER2, HER3 or HER2/HER3 and grown in three-dimensional cultures for 15 days in the presence of heregulin, a known HER3-ligand that stabilizes and activates the HER2/HER3 heterodimer.

View SamplesThe Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (ERBB2 or HER2) is amplified and overexpressed in approximately 20% of invasive breast cancers and is associated with metastasis and poor prognosis. Here we describe the role of a constitutively active splice variant of HER2 (Delta-HER2) in human mammary epithelial cells. Overexpression of Delta-HER2 in human mammary cells decreased apoptosis and increased proliferation and expression of epithelial-to-mesenchymal markers. It also induced invasion in three-dimensional cultures and promoted tumorigenicity and metastasis in vivo. In contrast, similar overexpression of wild-type HER2 failed to evoke the same effects. Unbiased protein-tyrosine phosphorylation profiling revealed a significant increase in phosphorylation of several key signaling proteins upon Delta-HER2 expression, some of which not previously shown to belong to the HER2 pathway. In addition, microarray analysis revealed the expression of a set of genes specifically associated with Delta-HER2 expression. We found those genes to be highly expressed in ER-negative, high grade and metastatic primary breast tumors. Altogether, these results provide new insights into the function of a tumorigenic splice variant of HER2 and the signaling cascade deriving from its activity
