Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an subtype of breast cancer with absent expression of estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and HER-2. Estradiol and progesterone play important roles in the incidence of TNBC. However, the mechanism of regulating tumorigenesis are still to be elucidated. Our previously results showed that combined treatment with estradiol and progesterone inhibited the expression of miR-145 in TNBC cells, and increased the incidence of TNBC. Using TA2 mice TNBC model, our study will identify the roles of estradiol and progesterone in the incidence of TNBC, observe the relationgship between the level of estradiol / progesterone and miR-145, discuss the effect of estradiol and progesterone in regulating miR-145 and its target gene IGF-1R, and investigate the molecular mechanism of estradiol and progesterone in inducing TNBC. The study will provide evidence for miR-145 used as biomarkers for early dygnosis and targeted therapy of TNBC..
三阴性乳腺癌是一类雌激素受体、孕激素受体、表皮生长因子受体-2均为阴性表达的乳腺癌亚型。雌孕激素与三阴性乳腺癌的发生密切相关,但其作用机制尚不明确。前期研究工作显示,雌孕激素联合给药可下调三阴性乳腺癌细胞中miR-145的表达,并诱导三阴性乳腺癌的发生。本研究拟利用TA2小鼠这一理想肿瘤模型,明确雌孕激素在三阴性乳腺癌发生过程中的作用,观察雌孕激素和miR-145表达水平间的相关性,阐述雌孕激素对miR-145及其靶基因IGF-1R的调控作用,探讨雌孕激素影响三阴性乳腺癌发生的相关分子机制,为miR-145作为三阴性乳腺癌的早期诊断和靶向治疗指标提供实验基础和理论依据。
雌孕激素与三阴性乳腺癌的发生密切相关,但其作用机制尚不明确。我们首先在动物水平上利用TA2小鼠这一理想肿瘤模型,将其手术去势后外源性激素给药,结果发现雌孕激素联合给药可诱导去势TA2小鼠乳腺癌的肿瘤发生,并通过免疫组化标记证实肿瘤组织呈三阴性表达模式。进一步原位分子杂交检测发现雌孕激素联合给药组肿瘤组织内miR-145呈阴性表达,免疫组化结果显示其靶基因IGF-1R、N-RAS及下游信号分子VEGF均呈阳性表达。另外,qPCR结果显示雌孕激素联合给药下调伴乳腺癌形成的TA2雌鼠血浆中miR-145的表达水平。接着我们在细胞水平上构建了MDA-MB-231/miR-145及MDA-MB-231/miR-SCR稳定细胞株,CCK8检测发现雌孕激素联合给药可逆转miR-145对三阴性乳腺癌细胞增殖的抑制作用,同时Western blot及qPCR结果显示,雌孕激素联合给药可逆转miR-145靶基因IGF-1R、N-RAS及下游信号分子VEGF的表达水平。以上结果初步阐明了雌孕激素影响三阴性乳腺癌发生的相关分子机制,为miR-145作为三阴性乳腺癌的早期诊断和靶向治疗指标提供了一定的实验基础和理论依据。
