Figure Lengend Snippet: SH3-domain containing GRB2-like 1 ( SH3GL1 ) is generally highly expressed in breast cancer (BRCA) and is closely related to a variety of immune cells. (A) Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining diagram of BRCA and immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining diagram of breast markers, including pan-cytokeratin, estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). (B) Western blot analysis of the protein expression levels of SH3GL1 in tissues of BRCA and adjacent normal tissue (Adj). ∗∗∗ P < 0.001, in comparison with Adj. (C) Reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) to detect the mRNA expression level of SH3GL1 in BRCA and Adj in clinical samples, ∗∗∗ P < 0.001, in comparison with Adj. (D) Flow cytometry for the proportion of natural killer (NK) cells, T cells, B cells, regulatory T cells (Treg), M0, M1, dendritic cell (DC) and mast cell in the tissues of BRCA and Adj, ∗∗∗ P < 0.001, in comparison with Adj. (E) RT-qPCR to detect the expression level of SH3GL1 in commonly used BRCA cell lines. Among them, MCF-10A was normal breast epithelial cell, BT474: three Yang; SKBR3: HER2 high expression; MCF-7: ER + ; MDA-MB-453: ER-HER2 + ; MDA-MB-231: Three Yin. ∗ indicates comparison with MCF-10A. ∗∗ P < 0.01, ∗∗∗ P < 0.001. (F, G) Western blot analysis of the protein expression level of SH3GL1 in commonly used BRCA cell lines. In comparison with MCF-10A, ∗ P < 0.01, ∗∗ P < 0.01, ∗∗∗ P < 0.001. The expression values for different cell types were not ordered according to any specific rank. M0/M1: macrophage subtypes. TNBC: triple-negative breast cancer; GAPDH: glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. BCRA-1 and BCRA-2 represent breast cancer samples obtained from two independent patients.
Article Snippet: In this study, the BRCA cell lines BT474 (human breast ductal carcinoma cell line, BFN60700229), SKBR3 (human BRCA cell line, BFN60700185), MCF-7 (human BRCA cell line, BFN607200603), MDA-MB-231 (human BRCA cell line, BFN608008564), and MDA-MB-453 (human BRCA cell line, BFN60700116), as well as the normal breast cell line MCF-10A (human breast epithelial cells, BFN60805246) were all purchased from BLUEFBIO (Shenzhen, Guangdong, China) and authenticated by the German DSMZ Leibniz Research Institute in November 2017 and June 2018 using a nano-composite PCR-based (short tandem repeat) STR profile.
