This chapter was inadvertently published with an incorrect spelling of the author's name as V. Arriza whereas it should be V. Arizza. In addition to this the affiliation of one of the chapter authors Elisse Sutton was published incorrectly and it has now been corrected to read as Department of Biological Sciences, Macquarie University, Sydney, NSW, Australia.

PHENOTYPIC PROFILING OF OSTEOTROPIC BREAST CANCER CELLS

2015

One of the preferred locations of metastases from breast cancer is the bone tissue. On the other hand, it should be recalled that mammary tumors with equal clinical diagnosis have a different course, and also different metastatic progression. Therefore, it would be helpful to have appropriate markers of osteotropism to test on the surgical cancer tissues, in order to predict the possible propensity of the breast cancer to generate bone metastases and to adequate the therapeutic plan. We previously reported1,2 on the setting-up of an in vitro model for the study of the osteotropic propensity of breast cancer cells and the influences exerted by the bone microenvironment on the cancer cells ph…

The shell matrix of the european thorny oyster, Spondylus gaederopus: microstructural and molecular characterization.

2020

17 pages; International audience; Molluscs, the largest marine phylum, display extraordinary shell diversity and sophisticated biomineral architectures. However, mineral-associated biomolecules involved in biomineralization are still poorly characterised.We report the first comprehensive structural and biomolecular study of Spondylus gaederopus, a pectinoid bivalve with a peculiar shell texture. Used since prehistoric times, this is the best-known shell of Europe’s cultural heritage. We find that Spondylus microstructure is very poor in mineral-bound organics, which are mostly intercrystalline and concentrated at the interface between structural layers.Using high-resolution liquid chromatog…

Proteomic profiling of 13 paired ductal infiltrating breast carcinomas and non-tumoral adjacent counterparts.

2006

According to recent statistics, breast cancer remains one of the leading causes of death among women in Western countries. Breast cancer is a complex and heterogeneous disease, presently classified into several subtypes according to their cellular origin. Among breast cancer histotypes, infiltrating ductal carcinoma represents the most common and potentially aggressive form. Despite the current progress achieved in early cancer detection and treatment, including the new generation of molecular therapies, there is still need for identification of multiparametric biomarkers capable of discriminating between cancer subtypes and predicting cancer progression for personalized therapies. One esta…

NEW PROTEOMIC EVIDENCE ON DECORIN EFFECTS ON BREAST CANCER CELLS

2015

The estabilishment of a dinamic crosstyalk between the malignant cells and several components of the ECM is a crucial step of the tumor progression. The aim of the present study was to improve the knowledge about the effects of ectopic decorin on the breast cancer cells, starting from our previous proteomic studies. The new proteomic evidences strenghteh the anti-oncogenic effects of decorin and hilight the attention on the decreased expression of the majority of the members of three protein classes closely related to the malignant phenotype: the metabolic enzymes, the S100 family and the cell motility proteins

Decorin transfection induces proteomic and phenotypic modulation in breast cancer cells 8701-BC

2008

Decorin is a prototype member of the small leucine-rich proteoglycan family widely distributed in the extracellular matrices of many connective tissues, where it has been shown to play multiple important roles in the matrix assembly process, as well as in some cellular activities. A major interest for decorin function concerns its role in tumorigenesis, as growth-inhibitor of different neoplastic cells, and potential antimetastatic agent. The aim of our research was to investigate wide-ranged effects of transgenic decorin on breast cancer cells. To this purpose we utilized the well-characterized 8701-BC cell line, isolated from a ductal infiltrating carcinoma of the breast, and two derived …
