Epimorphin overexpression in the mouse mammary gland promotes alveolar hyperplasia and mammary adenocarcinoma.
Epimorphin/syntaxin-2 (EPM) is a plasma membrane-anchored protein that has at least two distinct functions depending on its membrane topology: vesicle fusion when localized to the cytoplasmic surface and morphogenic signaling when localized to the extracellular surface. Transgenic mice that express full-length extracellular EPM fused to the NH2-terminal signal sequence of interleukin-2, under t...
متن کاملPELP1 overexpression in the mouse mammary gland results in the development of hyperplasia and carcinoma.
Estrogen receptor (ER) coregulator overexpression promotes carcinogenesis and/or progression of endocrine related-cancers in which steroid hormones are powerful mitogenic agents. Recent studies in our laboratory, as well as others, demonstrated that the estrogen receptor coregulator PELP1 is a proto-oncogene. PELP1 interactions with histone demethylase KDM1 play a critical role in its oncogenic...
متن کاملNeuropilin-2 promotes branching morphogenesis in the mouse mammary gland.
Although the neuropilins were characterized as semaphorin receptors that regulate axon guidance, they also function as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptors and contribute to the development of other tissues. Here, we assessed the role of NRP2 in mouse mammary gland development based on our observation that NRP2 is expressed preferentially in the terminal end buds of developing gl...
متن کاملActivity and Ultrastructure of Mitochondria from Mouse Mammary Gland and Mammary Adenocarcinoma 1
Mitochondria isolated from normal mammary glands taken from lactating and nonlactating C3H mice were compared with those isolated from mammary adenocarcinomas. Functional mitochondria could be obtained from the normal mammary glands only when milk was not present in the tissue prior to homogenization and when bovine serum albumin was added to the isolation medium. Albumin also protected tumor m...
