Characterization of inorganic phosphate transport in the triple-negative breast cancer cell line, MDA-MB-231
BACKGROUND Recent studies demonstrate that interstitial inorganic phosphate is significantly elevated in the breast cancer microenvironment as compared to normal tissue. In addition it has been shown that breast cancer cells express high levels of the NaPi-IIb carrier (SLC34A2), suggesting that this carrier may play a role in breast cancer progression. However, the biochemical behavior of inorg...
متن کاملER81-shRNA inhibits growth of triple-negative human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 in vivo and in vitro.
The lack of effective treatment targets for triple-negative breast cancers make them unfitted for endocrine or HER2 targeted therapy, and their prognosis is poor. Transcription factor ER81, a downstream gene of the HER2, is highly expressed in breast cancer lines, breast atypical hyperplasia and primary breast cancers including triple-negative examples. However, whether and how ER81 affects bre...
متن کاملRhopalurus junceus scorpion venom induces apoptosis in the triple negative human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231
Rhopalurus junceus scorpion venom has demonstrated high cytotoxic activity in epithelial cancer cells. In the present study, the effect of scorpion venom on cell viability and apoptosis was evaluated in the MDA-MB-231 human breast carcinoma cell line. Cell viability was analyzed using MTT assay. The cell death event was examined trough end-point RT-PCR to identify the expression of apoptosis-re...
متن کاملInhibition of IGF signalling pathway in MDA-MB-231 triple negative breast cancer cells
Introduction Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is characterised by the absence of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and the HER-2 receptor. TNBC is typically associated with a poor prognosis due to aggressive tumour phenotypes, partial response to chemotherapy, and current lack of clinically validated targeted therapies. Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) stimulate cell prol...
متن کاملHypoxia Inducible Factors Modify Collagen I Fibers in MDA-MB-231 Triple Negative Breast Cancer Xenografts12
Hypoxia inducible factors (HIFs) are transcription factors that mediate the response of cells to hypoxia. HIFs have wide-ranging effects on metabolism, the tumor microenvironment (TME) and the extracellular matrix (ECM). Here we investigated the silencing effects of two of the three known isoforms, HIF-1α and HIF-2α, on collagen 1 (Col1) fibers, which form a major component of the ECM of tumors...
