Thyronamine regulation of TAAR1 expression in breast cancer cells and investigation of its influence on viability and migration. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • The study investigates the link between thyroid disorders and breast cancer, focusing on the roles of trace amines and the receptor TAAR1, which are influenced by thyroid hormones.
  • The research involved testing the effects of different substances like triiodothyronine on the expression of TAAR1 in breast cancer cell lines MCF-7 and T47D using various laboratory techniques.
  • Results showed that stimulation with 3-iodothyronamine significantly increased TAAR1 expression and reduced cell viability and migration, suggesting TAAR1 may be a potential target for new treatment strategies in breast cancer.

Article Abstract

Objectives: A correlation exists between breast cancer and thyroid disorders, which are common in elderly women. Thyroid hormones are degraded into trace amines, which can bind to the G-protein-coupled receptor trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1) and thereby activate it. The transformation of thyroid hormones into trace amines is carried out by the ornithine decarboxylase. Previously, we showed that TAAR1 overexpression (IRS ≥6) was associated with a significantly longer OS in primary breast cancer patients during a long-term follow-up of up to 14 years. Aim of the present study was to analyze the regulation of TAAR1 in breast cancer cell lines and the influence of triiodothyronine (T), thyronamines, and tetraiodothyroacetic acid (Tetrac) on the expression of TAAR1 in breast cancer cells.

Methods: The effect of T, thyronamines, and Tetrac on the expression of TAAR1 in breast cancer cell lines MCF-7 and T47D was analyzed via PCR and Western blot. A MTT assay was performed to test the metabolic cell viability. A scratch assay was performed to analyze cell migration.

Results: Stimulation of MCF-7 cells with 10 nM 3-iodothyronamine (TAM) significantly increased TAAR1 protein expression (=0.008). In T47D cells, TAAR1 expression was significantly upregulated after the addition of 10 µg/mL estradiol to 10 nM TAM (=0.008). A significant (=0.028) reduction in MCF-7 cell viability through the incubation with TAM could be detected. Cell migration of MCF cells was significantly reduced through incubation with 10 nM TAM.

Conclusion: A significant upregulation of TAAR1 induced by stimulation with TAM may be a sign for an increased decarboxylation of thyroid hormones in breast cancer cells. In addition, there seems to be an influence of estradiol for the TAM-induced upregulation of TAAR1 in T47D cells. TAAR1-related cell transduction mechanisms seem to be an interesting target for endocrine treatment options of breast cancer patients.
