Exosomal miRNA-223-3p derived from tumor associated macrophages promotes pulmonary metastasis of breast cancer 4T1 cells

Research about the effect of exosomes derived from tumor associated macrophages (TAM-exos) in the distant organ metastasis of breast cancer is limited. In this study, we found that TAM-exos could promote the migration of 4T1 cells. Through comparing the expression of microRNAs in 4T1 cells, TAM-exos...

description Research about the effect of exosomes derived from tumor associated macrophages (TAM-exos) in the distant organ metastasis of breast cancer is limited. In this study, we found that TAM-exos could promote the migration of 4T1 cells. Through comparing the expression of microRNAs in 4T1 cells, TAM-exos, and exosomes from bone marrow derived macrophages (BMDM-exos) by sequencing, miR-223-3p and miR-379-5p were screened out as two noteworthy differentially expressed microRNAs. Furthermore, miR-223-3p was confirmed to be the reason for the improved migration and metastasis of 4T1 cells. The expression of miR-223-3p was also increased in 4T1 cells isolated from the lung of tumor-bearing mice. Cbx5, which has been reported to be closely related with metastasis of breast cancer, was identified to be the target of miR-223-3p. Based on the information of breast cancer patients from online databases, miR-223-3p had a negative correlation with the overall survival rate of breast cancer patients within a three-year follow-up, while Cbx5 showed an opposite relationship. Taken together, miR-223-3p in TAM-exos can be delivered into 4T1 cells and exosomal miR-223-3p promotes pulmonary metastasis of 4T1 cells by targeting Cbx5.
