Breast cancer expresses functional NMDA receptors
We demonstrate here that functional NMDAR1 and NMDAR2 receptors are expressed by Mcf-7 and SKBR3 breast cancer cell lines, and possibly by most or all high-grade breast tumors, and that these receptors are important for the growth of human breast cancer xenografts in mice.

description | We demonstrate here that functional NMDAR1 and NMDAR2 receptors are expressed by Mcf-7 and SKBR3 breast cancer cell lines, and possibly by most or all high-grade breast tumors, and that these receptors are important for the growth of human breast cancer xenografts in mice. RT-PCR demonstrated mRNA for both NMDAR1 and NMDAR2 receptors are expressed in both Mcf-7 and SKBR3 cell lines, and these messages likely have sequences identical to those reported for human mRNAs. Proteins of the expected respective sizes 120 and 170 kD are generated from these mRNAs by the tumor cells. Cell growth was found to be significantly (P < 0.0001) impaired down to 10% of normal growth by the irreversible NMDAR1 antagonists MK-801 and memantine with IC 50s ranging from 600 to >800 µM and from 200 to 300 µM for the two lines. Paradoxically, memantine with a lower binding affinity had the greater influence of the two inhibitors on cell viability. Immunohistochemical examination of high-grade invasive ductal and lobular breast cancer with our polyclonal antibodies against a peptide (-Met-Ser-Ile-Tyr-Ser-Asp-Lys-Ser-Ile-His-) in the extracellular domain of the NMDAR1 receptor gave specific positive staining for the receptor in all 10 cases examined. Positive staining was chiefly concentrated at the membranes of these tumor tissues. No staining with these antibodies was found for normal breast and kidney tissues. When Mcf-7 cells were grown as tumor xenografts in nu/nu mice, the growth of these tumors was completely arrested by daily treatments with MK-801 over 5 days. All of these data point to active NMDAR receptors being expressed by most breast cancers, and having an important influence on their survival. |
