| Abstract | Background Endocrine therapy (ET) has improved the clinical outcomes of Estrogen receptor alpha-positive (ERɑ +) breast cancer (BC) patients, even though resistance to ET remains a clinical issue. Mutations in the hormone-binding domain of ERɑ represent an acquired intrinsic mechanism of ET resistance. However, the latter also depends on the multiple functional interactions between BC cells and the tumor microenvironment (TME). Here, we investigated how the most common Y537S-ERɑ mutation may influence the behavior of fibroblasts, the most prominent component of the TME. Methods We conducted coculture experiments with normal human foreskin fibroblasts BJ1-hTERT (NFs), cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), isolated from human BC specimens, and Y537S CRISPR-expressing MCF-7 BC cells (MCF-7YS). Mass spectrometry (MS) and Metacore analyses were performed to investigate how the functional interactions between BC cells/fibroblasts may affect their proteomic profile. The impact of fibroblasts on BC tumor growth and metastatic potential was evaluated in nude mice. Results Mutant BC conditioned medium (CM) affected the morphology/proliferation/migration of both NFs and CAFs. 198 deregulated proteins signed the proteomic similarity profile of NFs exposed to the YS-CM and CAFs. Among the upregulated proteins, Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) was the main central hub in the direct interaction network. Increased YAP1 protein expression and activity were confirmed in NFs treated with MCF-7YS-CM. However, YAP1 activation appears to crosstalk with the insulin growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R). Higher amount of IGF-1 were noticed in the MCF-7YS-CM cells compared to the MCF-7P, and IGF-1 immunodepletion reversed the enhanced YAP1 expression and activity. Mutant cells upon exposure to the NF- and CAF-CM exhibited an enhanced proliferation/growth/migration/invasion compared to the MCF-7P. MCF-7YS cells when implanted with CAFs showed an early relative increased tumor volume compared to YS alone. No changes were observed when MCF-7P cells were co-implanted with CAFs. Compared with that in MCF-7P cells, the metastatic burden of MCF-7YS cells was intrinsically greater, and this effect was augmented upon treatment with NF-CM and further increased with CAF-CM. Conclusions YS mutant BC cells induced the conversion of fibroblasts into CAFs, via YAP, which represent a potential therapeutic target which interrupt the functional interactions between mutant cells/TME and to be implemented in the novel therapeutic strategy of a subset of metastatic BC patients carrying the frequent Y537S mutations. |

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.
