To see whether
cancer stem
cell renewal involves a chain of events similar to that used by embryonic stem
cells, and whether the process was affected by oxygen levels, Semenza and graduate student Chuanzhao Zhang focused their studies on two human
breast cancer cell lines that responded to low oxygen by ramping up production of the protein ALKBH5, which removes methyl groups
from mRNAs.
With help
from researchers at Duke University, they showed that the gene has a unique pattern of methylation in
breast cancer cell lines that might one day help doctors spot the disease.

cells from patients with
breast cancer with a laboratory model of blood vessel
lining provides the most compelling evidence so far that a specific trio of
cells is required for the spread of
breast cancer.

from the plant and studied its effect on
cancer stem
cells in three different
breast cancer cell lines.

cells at various distances
from primary tumours to show how changes along the
lining of mammary ducts can lead to disease.

cells from each of these
lines to a panel of 31 different drug treatments — including 23 chemotherapy compounds approved by the FDA for
breast and ovarian
cancers, six targeted
cancer drugs, and two common drug combinations.
Cheng, an assistant professor of medicine in hematology / oncology at Feinberg, provided the
cell lines and NanoFlare targets the researchers used to model blood samples taken
from breast cancer patients.
Using a new TaqMan PCR - based technique, the researchers screened a number of
cancer cell lines from various tissues, and discovered that tRNA halves were specifically expressed in large quantities in sex hormone - dependent
cancers, i.e., estrogen receptor (ER)- positive
breast cancer and androgen receptor (AR)- positive prostate
cancer that are driven by the hormones estrogen and testosterone.
They collected gene expression data
from six genetically diverse
breast cancer cell lines, which were each exposed to 109 small - molecule drugs at multiple dosages and time points.
Quantitative proteomics study of
breast cancer cell lines isolated
from a single patient: discovery of TIMM17A as a marker for
breast cancer.
We then isolated and exposed this novel subpopulation to additional cycles of hypoxia / reoxygenation and established a distinct subpopulation of
cells from these two
breast cancer cell lines.
To evaluate whether ABL kinases might regulate the secretion of osteoblast - derived RANKL or OPG leading to osteoclast differentiation, we analyzed RANKL and OPG mRNA abundance in the murine osteoblast
cell line 7F2 in response to conditioned medium
from control and ABL1 / ABL2 knockdown
breast cancer cells.
The human
breast cancer cell line SKBR3 was purchased from the Duke University Cell Culture Facility and was maintained in McCoy's 5A medium (Life Technologies) supplemented with 10 % FBS (Life Technologies) and antibiot
cell line SKBR3 was purchased
from the Duke University

Cell Culture Facility and was maintained in McCoy's 5A medium (Life Technologies) supplemented with 10 % FBS (Life Technologies) and antibiotics.
Whereas conditioned medium
from ABL1 / ABL2 - depleted
breast cancer cells did not affect RANKL abundance in osteoblasts compared with the
cells treated with control conditioned medium (Fig. 5E), we found that conditioned medium
from breast cancer cells lacking ABL kinases increased OPG abundance in the osteoblast
cell line (Fig. 5F).
To confirm specificity, supernatant
from transfected or transduced HB1.F3
cells was incubated with MCF7, MCF7 / HER2, or BT474, a human
breast cancer cell line that endogenously overexpresses HER2.
The functional data provided
from a limited series of
breast cancer cell lines does not allow generalizable conclusions to be drawn.
Those are
cells that were taken
from nun many years ago that had
breast cancer and they propagated them and they do a lot of the research on this
line of
cells that actually came
from a nun that had
breast cancer called MCF - 7 estrogen dependent
breast cancer.
