Full textMucoepidermoid carcinomas (MECs) are malignant epithelial mucin-producing tumours encountered in both major and minor salivary glands. The aim of this study was to investigate the histological characteristics of the expression of mucins (MUC1, MUC4, MUC5AC, MUC5B, MUC6) in MECs in search for a possible correlation between qualitative mucin expression and tumour grade. Twelve low-grade, five high-grade MECs and nine normal salivary glands adjacent to tumour tissue were investigated for these mucins by immunohistochemistry. The samples were evaluated with respect to staining pattern and positivity of specific cell types. Normal acinar cells mainly expressed the cytoplasmic mucin MUC5B. MUC1 and MUC4 were expressed in normal ductal cells in approximately half of the samples whereas MUC5AC expression was rare in normal salivary glands. MECs expressed MUC1, MUC4, MUC5AC and MUC5B. The apical membrane of mucous cells lining the cystic cavities showed the strongest staining for MUC1 and MUC4. The expression of MUC4 in mucous cells decreased with increasing histological grade. Expression of salivary mucin MUC5B in mucous cells in low-grade MECs was less intense compared to the expression of MUC5AC in the same cells. In high-grade tumours, a higher expression of MUC5B compared to MUC5AC was noted. In conclusion, MECs express different mucin quantity compared to normal salivary glands. MUC5AC expression in salivary tumour tissue seems to be a metaplastic feature and MUC4 appears to be related to tumour differentiation grade. The relationship between MUC5AC and MUC5B expression could be a useful tool in the diagnosis and estimation of prognosis of MECs.

Full textThe first aim of this study is to examine the expression of c-Myb during normal mammary gland development. The expression of c-Myb is extensively characterised in a temporal and spatial fashion. Nuclear staining of c-Myb by immunohistochemisty was found to be most elaborately expressed in the ductal epithelium during early mammary gland development. Mouse mammary gland lacking c-myb showed disorganised ductal structure in virgin mice, but did not affect subsequent pregnancy and lactation.
To extend the view that c-Myb is involved in mammary tumourigenesis c-myb-transduced immortalised mammary epithelial cells and two mammary tumour prone transgenic mouse models were examined. NMuMG cells transduced with c-myb showed enhanced proliferation and reduced Annexin V staining consistent with the protection from apoptosis. This reduced apoptosis is consistent with, and perhaps contingent upon, the elevated expression observed for bcl-2 and grp78. The data assembled by expression studies raised the possibility that c-Myb is essential for the establishment of mammary gland tumor in both MMTV-Neu and MMTV-PyMT spontaneous mammary gland tumor models. Loss of c-Myb expression in these models significantly delayed and in most instances completely abolished the onset of mammary gland tumours in both models. Preliminary evidence also indicated that Stat3 phosphorylation may underpin the elevated c-Myb expression in mouse mammary tumour cells.
The focus of my thesis then shifted to examining ways to exploit elevated c-Myb target gene GRP78 expression on the cell surface of mammary tumour cells. To do this I employed a GRP78 binding pro-apoptotic chimera peptide that specifically binds to GRP78 where I examined its efficacy against primary and metastatic breast cancer models. My results demonstrated the anti-tumour activity of the GRP78-chimera peptide both in vitro and in vivo. More importantly, the peptide is also effective at prolonging disease-free survival in mice with established metastatic disease.
Evidence obtained within these studies suggests that c-Myb plays an important role in mammary gland development and tumourgenesis. Although it may be difficult to directly target c-Myb in malignant disease, alternative anti-tumoural therapy may be developed against c-Myb-regulated target genes that are also implicated in mammary tumours. Collectively my thesis studies have advanced our understanding of c-Myb in mammary cancer initiation, progression and as a direct or indirect therapeutic target.
