Advance-stage breast carcinomas include significant amounts of fibroblasts and
infiltrating immune cells which have been implicated in tumor growth, recurrence,
and response to therapy. The present study investigated the contribution of
fibroblasts to tumor growth using direct tumor-fibroblast co-cultures and tumor
xenograft models. Our findings revealed that fibroblasts enhance breast carcinoma
growth by promoting the tumor vasculature via the MMP9-dependent mechanism. In
tumor-fibroblast co-cultures, fibroblasts increased expression of TGF-?, TNF, and
IL-1? cytokines in tumor cells. These cytokines cooperatively induced expression
of matrix metalloproteinase MMP9 in tumor cells. Knockdown of MMP9 by shRNA
significantly reduced tumor vascularization induced by fibroblasts.
Mechanistically, our findings argue that expression of MMP9 in tumor cellsis
regulated by crosstalk of TGF-? with TNF and/or IL-1? cytokines. The mechanism of
this cooperative response did not involve cross-activation of the canonical
signaling pathways as TGF-? did not activate RELA/p65 signaling, while TNF did
not affect SMAD signaling. Instead, TGF-? and TNF cytokines co-stimulated MAP
kinases and expression of JUN and JUNB, AP1 transcription factor subunits, which
together with RELA/p65 were essential for the regulation of MMP9. Depletion of
JUN and JUNB or RELA in tumor cells blocked the cooperative induction of MMP9 by
the cytokines. Thus, our studies uncovered a previously unappreciated role of
tumor-fibroblast interactions in the stimulation of tumor angiogenesis, and an
essential role of the MAPK-AP1 axis in the cooperative up-regulation of the
angiogenic driver MMP9 by cytokine crosstalk.
