Abstract An established hallmark of cancer cells is metabolic reprogramming, largely consisting in the exacerbated glucose uptake. Adipocytes in the tumor microenvironment contribute toward breast cancer (BC) progression and are highly responsive to metabolic fluctuations. Metabolic conditions characterizing obesity and/or diabetes associate with increased BC incidence and mortality. To explore BC-adipocytes interaction and define the impact of glucose in such dialogue, Mammary Adipose-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MAd-MSCs) were differentiated into adipocytes and co-cultured with ER+ BC cells while exposed to glucose concentration resembling hyperglycemia or normoglycemia in humans (25mM or 5.5mM). The transcriptome of both cell types in co-culture as in mono-culture was profiled by RNA-Seq to define the impact of adipocytes on BC cells and viceversa (i), the action of glucose on BC cells, adipocytes (ii) and their crosstalk (iii). Noteworthy, we provided evidence that co-culture with adipocytes in a glucose-rich environment determined a re-program of BC cell transcriptome driving lipid accumulation, a hallmark of BC aggressiveness, promoting stem-like properties and reducing Tamoxifen responsiveness. Moreover, our data point out to a transcriptional effect through which BC cells induce adipocytes de-lipidation, paralleled by pluripotency gain, as source of lipids when glucose lowering occurs. Thus, modulating plasticity of peri-tumoral adipocytes may represent a key point for halting BC progression in metabolically unbalanced patients. |
