| Abstract | Tetraspanin CD151 is associated with laminins-binding integrins (i.e. α3β1, α6β1 and α6β4) and regulates tumour cell migration and invasion. Here we examined the role of CD151 in proliferation of mammary epithelial cells using in vitro and in vivo models. Depletion of CD151 suppressed growth of HB2 cells, a non-tumourigenic breast epithelial cell line, in 3-D extracellular matrices (ECM) and in Matrigel-based xenografts. Whilst the presence of α3β1 (but not α6 integrins) was necessary to support growth of HB2 cells in 3-D ECM, the pro-proliferative activity of CD151 did not require the direct interaction with integrins. Furthermore, depletion of CD151 potentiated formation of the internal lumen and partial restoration of polarity when HB2 cells were cultured in 3-D ECM. This correlated with a decrease in phosphorylation levels of Erk1/2 and cAkt in CD151-negative cells and increase in activation of Caspase-3. Accordingly, the number of CD151-positive colonies with internal lumen was increased by approximately five-fold when cells were cultured in the presence of MEK (U0126) and PI3-K (LY29004) inhibitors. To establish physiological relevance of pro-proliferative and morphogenetic activities of CD151 we analysed expression of this tetraspanin in ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), which is characterized by neoplastic proliferation of mammary epithelial cells. Strong homogeneous membrane expression of CD151 was found to be associated with high grade of DCIS (p=0.004). Taken together these results strongly suggest that CD151 complexes play a crucial role in the development of hyperproliferative diseases in the mammary gland. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
