Abstract

HER2 overexpression is one of the most recognizable molecular alterations in breast tumors known to be associated with a poor prognosis. In the study described here, we explored the effect of HER2 overexpression on the sensitivity of breast cancer cells to the growth-inhibitory effects of 2-cyano-3,12-dioxooleana-1,9-dien-28-oic acid (CDDO), a synthetic triterpenoid, both in vitro and in vivo in a xenograft model of breast cancer. Both cell growth and colony formation in the soft agar assay, a hallmark of the transformation phenotype, were preferentially suppressed in HER2-overexpressing cell lines at low concentrations of CDDO, whereas growth-inhibitory effects at high concentrations did not correlate with the expression level of HER2. CDDO dose-dependently inhibited phosphorylation of HER2 in HER2-overexpressing cells and diminished HER2 kinase activity in vitro. CDDO induced the transactivation of the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma in both vector control and HER2-transfected MCF7 cells. Dose-response studies showed that the growth inhibition seen at lower concentrations of CDDO correlated with induction of the tumor suppressor gene caveolin-1, which is known to inhibit breast cancer cell gr...Continue Reading

Caveolins & Signal Transduction

Caveolins are small proteins with a hairpin loop conformation that are located in the plasma membrane of various cell types where they bind cholesterol and interact with receptors essential for several signal transduction pathways. Here is the latest research.
