| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It has become important to identify the surrogate markers regarding HER2 inhibitor sensitivity for HER2-positive breast cancer patients. In this study, we focused on protein-protein interaction (PPI) between HER2 and carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 6 (CEACAM6) in breast cancer cells. In breast cancer RT-474 cells, HER2/CEACAM6 PPI was detected by using co-immunoprecipitation assay and visualized by using both proximity ligation assay (PLA) and high resolution microscopy. We then visualized HER2/CEACAM6 PPI by using PLA in human breast carcinoma tissues. Knockdown of CEACAM6 gene significantly decreased the anti-cell proliferative effect of HER2 inhibitor in RT-474. These findings suggest that CEACAM6 has an effect by PPI with HER2 on HER2 sensitivity in breast cancer cells.
