<p>Demethylation of the Cosmc Promoter Alleviates the Progression of Breast Cancer Through Downregulation of the Tn and Sialyl-Tn Antigens</p>

Abstract: These authors contributed equally to this workBackground: Aberrant gene methylation in breast cancer is associated with an unfavorable prognosis. Besides, abnormal Cosmc can induce the expression of Tn and STn antigens. The present study aimed to investigate the roles of Cosmc promoter methylation in breast cancer through the regulation of Tn and STn antigens. Methods: The expression patterns of Cosmc and the Tn and STn antigens in breast cancer cell lines were determined. Cosmc was overexpressed to explore th… Show more

“…Some experts believe that the inactivation or lack of Cosmc makes O-linked glycoproteins carry this truncated sTn glycans (24). As our recent study showed, Cosmc promoter hypermethylation could decrease the levels of Cosmc and increase Tn and sTn antigens expression in BC cells (21). Few studies have evaluated the role of sTn in the prognosis of patients with BC (25).…”

“…Subsequently, all sections were visualized with a DAB kit, and the nucleus was counterstained with hematoxylin. For positive controls, samples of Cosmc-KO MCF-7 BC cells (21) and human placenta were used for sTn and PD-L1 staining, respectively. We prepared negative controls by using PBS as a substitute for the primary antibody.…”

“…It was shown that hypermethylation leads to decreased expression of a chaperone that folds enzymes involved in O-glycan elongation. The absence of these elongation enzymes results in increased Tn antigen expression in cancers, which were shown to directly induce oncogenic features including cell growth and invasion [93,94]. It was also shown that activation of the oncogene Src leads to increased retrograde trafficking from Golgi to ER of GALNTs, which results in increased O-glycosylation of proteins in the ER and increased surface levels of Tn antigen [95].…”

“…As these decay proteins lack the intracellular death domain that is required by downstream apoptosis signaling, the death signaling was not able to pass on, hence cell death was prevented [ 87 ]. In breast cancer MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7cells, transfection of COSMC reduced cellular Tn and STn occurrence and increased cell apoptosis [ 88 ]. These studies indicate that overexpression of C1GalT1 expression in cancer cells affects the expression and length of O-linked carbohydrate structures on cell death receptors and influences their response to cell death stimuli in cancer development.…”
