Popis: | Brain metastatic triple negative breast cancer (BM-TNBC) is afflicted with unfavorable prognosis. However, the molecular events underlying BM-TNBC remain largely unknown. In the present study, we conducted gene expression microarray analysis using the triple negative breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 and its brain metastatic derivative (MDA-MB-231Brm). Results of microarray analysis showed that a total of 4296 genes were differentially expressed, of which 2433 genes were up-regulated and 1863 genes were down-regulated. Gene Ontology (GO), KEGG pathway and protein-protein interaction (PPI) analyses indicated differentially expressed genes functionally categorized as genes of signal transduction, multicellular organismal development, ion transport, nervous system development, plasma membrane, extracellular region, calcium ion binding, GTP binding neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction. The validity of the microarray results was verified by quantitative real-time PCR analysis of twelve representative genes. The present findings revealed molecular basis and events associated with brain metastasis in TNBC, which will potentially contribute to the understanding of underlying mechanism and develop therapeutic targets. |
