ABSTRACT

Breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer in women. Estrogen, epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (ERBB2, HER2), and oxidative stress represent critical mechanistic nodes associated with BC. RLIP76 is a major mercapturic acid pathway transporter whose expression is increased in BC. In the quest of a novel molecule with chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic potential, we evaluated the effects of 2'-Hydroxyflavanone (2HF) in BC. 2HF enhanced the inhibitory effects of RLIP76 depletion and also inhibited RLIP76-mediated doxorubicin transport in BC cells. RNA-sequencing revealed that 2HF induces strong reversal of the gene expression pattern in ER+MCF7, HER2+ SKBR3 and triple-negative MDA-MB-231 BC cells with minimal effects on MCF10A normal breast epithelial cells. 2HF down regulated ERα and enhanced inhibitory effects of imatinib mesylate/Gleevec in MCF7 cells. 2HF also down regulated ERα and HER2 gene networks in MCF7 and SKBR3 cells, respectively. 2HF activated TP53 and inhibited TGFβ1 canonical pathway in MCF7 and MDA-MB-231 BC cells. 2HF also regulated the expression of a number of critical prognostic genes of MammaPrint panel and their upstream targets including TP53, CDKN2A and MYC. The collective findings from this study provide a comprehensive, direct and integrated evidence for the benefits of 2HF in targeting major and clinically relevant mechanistic regulators of BC.
