Actin stress fibers-mediated cell stiffening promotes the proliferation of pre-invasive breast cancer cells

In this study recently published in Nature Communications, the authors use a human breast cell line with conditional Src induction, breast tumor lesions and the in vivo model Drosophila melanogaster to show that cells undergo an actin stress fiber-mediated cell stiffening state prior to acquiring malignant features. This state promotes ERK-dependent cell proliferation, as well as, the progression towards a fully transformed state.

Enrijecimento celular mediado por fibras de actina promove a proliferação de células cancerígenas

Neste estudo, recentemente publicado na revista Nature Communications, os autores usam uma linha celular mamária com indução condicional de Src, tumores mamários e o modelo animal Drosophila melanogaster, para mostrar que as células sofrem um enrijecimento dependente da acumulação de stress-fibers, antes de adquirirem características malignas. Este estado promove a proliferação celular dependente de ERK, assim como a progressão até ao estado de completa transformação.
