Title In Silico Analysis Guides Selection of BET Inhibitors for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Treatment.
URL
Abstract Text Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an incurable disease with poor prognosis. At this moment, therapeutic options are limited to chemotherapy, and no targeted agent has reached the clinical setting. Bromodomain and extraterminal (BET) inhibitors are a new family of compounds that inhibit bromodomain-containing proteins affecting the expression of transcription factors, therefore modifying the expression of relevant oncogenic genes. In the present article, by using an in silico approach, we have identified the expression of upregulated transcription factors in TNBC compared with normal breast. Treatment with JQ1, a well-characterized BET inhibitor, modified some transcription factors, including DEP domain containing 1 (DEPDC), Forkhead box M1 (FOXM1), and Lim domain only 4 (LM04). In cell line models, administration of JQ1 or OTX015, another BET inhibitor, produced a significant antiproliferative effect and synergized with chemotherapies. Biochemical evaluation demonstrated an arrest at G1 as the main mechanism of action with a clear increase of p27. Addition of these compounds to chemotherapy induced apoptosis compared to each agent given alone. Evaluation of JQ1 in xenografted tumors in nude mice showed a profound antitumoral effect with a reduction of DEPDC, FOXM1, and LM04, in addition to an increase of p27. Globally, our data demonstrate the antitumor effect of this new family of compounds in TNBC, paving the way for its future clinical development. Mol Cancer Ther; 15(8); 1823-33. ©2016 AACR.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
