Significance of caveolin-1 and matrix metalloproteinase 14 gene expression in canine mammary tumours. Vet J 2015; 206:191-6.

Abstract
Canine mammary tumours (CMTs) are the most common neoplasms affecting female dogs. There is an urgent need for molecular biomarkers that can detect early stages of the disease in order to improve accuracy of CMT diagnosis. The aim of this study was to examine whether caveolin-1 (Cav-1) and matrix metalloproteinase 14 (MMP14) are associated with CMT histological malignancy and invasion. Sixty-five benign and malignant CMT samples and six normal canine mammary glands were analysed using quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Cav-1 and MMP14 genes were highly expressed in CMT tissues compared to normal tissues. Cav-1 especially was overexpressed in malignant and invasive CMT tissues. When a CMT cell line was cultured on fluorescent gelatin-coated coverslips, localisation of Cav-1 was observed at invadopodia-mediated degradation sites of the gelatin matrix. These findings suggest that Cav-1 may be involved in CMT invasion and that the markers may be useful for estimating CMT malignancy.

Abstract
Caveolae are specialized plasma membrane subdomains with distinct lipid and protein compositions, which play an essential role in cell physiology through regulation of trafficking and signaling functions. The structure and functions of caveolae have been shown to require the proteins caveolins. Recently, members of the cavin protein family were found to be required, in concert with caveolins, for the formation and function of caveolae. Caveolins have a paradoxical role in the development of cancer formation. They have been involved in both tumor suppression and oncogenesis, depending on tumor type and progress stage. High expression of caveolins and cavins leads to inhibition of cancer-related pathways, such as growth factor signaling pathways. However, certain cancer cells that express caveolins and cavins have been shown to be more aggressive and metastatic because of their increased potential for anchorage-independent growth. Here, we will survey the functional roles of caveolins and of different cavin family members in cancer regulation.

Abstract
Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) is found predominately in terminally differentiated cells, such as adipocytes, endothelia and smooth muscle cells, as well as type I pneumocytes. As a main structural component of caveolae, Cav-1 is important in modulating cellular signaling. In the present study, the expression and clinical role of Cav-1 were analyzed in tumor stromal and human cancer cells, respectively. The results of previous studies have shown that the downregulation of tumor stromal Cav-1 promotes tumor survival and predicts a poor tumor prognosis, predominantly concentrating on the mechanism of the metabolism of the cancer microenvironment (according to the autophagic tumor stroma model of cancer metabolism and the reverse Warburg effect). However, contradictory results concerning the expression, clinical roles and associated mechanisms of Cav-1 have been reported. An improved understanding of Cav-1 expression in tumor stromal and cancer cells will increase knowledge with regard to the clinical value of Cav-1 and its detailed mechanisms. This review summarizes the novel data concerning the clinical values and probable mechanisms of Cav-1 expression in tumor stromal (predominantly in cancer-associated fibroblasts) and cancer cells, respectively.
