Abstract

Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) is a critical lipid raft protein playing divergent roles as both a tumor suppressor and promoter. While its role in tumorigenesis, progression, and metastasis is recognized, explicit contribution of Cav-1 to the onset of lung metastasis from primary breast malignancies remained vague. We exhibit here, the first-ever evidence of Cav-1 knockout in epithelial cells leading to a significant reduction in lung metastasis in syngeneic mouse models of breast cancer. In vitro, Cav-1 knockout in 4T1 cells suppressed extracellular vesicles secretion, cellular motility, and MMP secretion vis-à-vis the controls. Complementing this, our in vivo analyses demonstrated a marked reduction in lung metastatic foci in mice injected with Cav-1 knockout 4T1 cells as compared to wild-type mice, which was further corroborated by mRNA profiling of the primary tumor. We discerned 21 epithelial cell migration genes exhibiting varied expression in tumors derived from Cav-1 knockout versus wild-type 4T1 cells. Correlation analysis and immunoblotting further divulged that Cav-1 regulates metastasis via integrin α3 (ITGα3). In silico protein docking anticipated an interaction between Cav-1 and ITGα3, substantiated by co-immunoprecipitation. Furthermore, ITGα3 knockdown corroborated its role in metastasis in a cell migration assay. Therefore, it can be inferred that Cav-1 plays a pivotal role in the pre-metastatic niche establishment and facilitates lung-specific cell migration.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
