Abelson Interactor Protein-1 Positively Regulates Breast Cancer Cell Proliferation, Migration, and Invasion
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abelson interactor protein-1 (ABI-1) is an adaptor protein involved in actin reorganization and lamellipodia formation. It forms a macromolecular complex containing Hspc300/WASP family verprolin-homologous proteins 2/ABI-1/nucleosome assembly protein 1/PIR121 or Abl/ABI-1/WASP family verprolin-homologous proteins 2 in response to Rho family-dependent stimuli. Due to its role in cell mobility, we hypothesized that ABI-1 has a role in invasion and metastasis. In the present study, we found that weakly invasive breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7, T47D, MDA-MB-468, SKBR3, and CAMA1) express lower levels of ABI-1 compared with highly invasive breast cancer cell lines (MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-157, BT549, and Hs578T), which exhibit high ABI-1 levels. Using RNA interference, ABI-1 was stably down-regulated in MDA-MB-231, which resulted in decreased cell proliferation and anchorage-dependent colony formation and abrogation of lamellipodia formation on fibronectin. Down-regulation of ABI-1 decreased invasiveness and migration ability and decreased adhesion on collagen IV and actin polymerization in MDA-MB-231 cells. Additionally, compared with control parental cells, ABI-1 small interfering RNA-transfected cells showed decreased levels of phospho-PDK1, phospho-Raf, phospho-AKT, total AKT, and AKT1. These data suggest that ABI-1 plays an important role in the spread of breast cancer and that this role may be mediated via the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathway.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
