Abstract:
:The AP-2 transcription factors are required for normal growth and morphogenesis during mammalian development. Previous in vitro studies have also indicated that the AP-2 family of proteins may be involved in the etiology of human breast cancer. The AP-2 genes are expressed in many human breast cancer cell lines, and critical AP-2-binding sites are present in both the ERBB-2 (HER2/neu) and estrogen receptor promoters. We have now characterized immunological reagents that enable specific AP-2 family members, including AP-2alpha and AP-2gamma, to be detected in human breast cancer epithelium. Data obtained with these reagents demonstrate that whereas AP-2alpha and AP-2gamma are both present in benign breast epithelia, there is a significant up-regulation of AP-2gamma expression in breast cancer specimens (P = 0.01). There was also a significant correlation between the presence of the AP-2alpha protein and estrogen receptor expression (P = 0.018) and between specimens containing both AP-2alpha/AP-2gamma proteins and ERBB-2 expression (P = 0.003). Furthermore, we detected an association (P = 0.04) between the expression of AP-2gamma and the presence of an additional signal transduction molecule implicated in breast cancer, the insulin-like growth factor I receptor. Analysis of the proximal promoter of the insulin-like growth factor I receptor revealed a novel AP-2-binding site. Thus, AP-2 proteins may directly regulate the transcription of this growth factor receptor. Taken together, these data strongly support a role for the AP-2 gene family in the control of cell growth and differentiation in breast cancer.
