Molecular Mechanisms of Feline Cancers

Abstract: Feline cancers have not been studied as extensively as canine cancers, though they may offer similar advantages, with cats being immunocompetent animals subject to similar conditions as their human counterparts. The most common feline cancers include lymphoma, squamous cell carcinoma, sarcoma, and mammary tumors, though mast cell tumors were also investigated in this review. As the pathogenesis of many feline cancers remains unclear, this study seeks to elucidate some molecular mechanisms behind feline cancers… Show more

“…While these findings were predicted given the remarkable clinical, pathological, and genetic parallels between both tumors ( 9 , 37 , 60 62 ) they in no way confirm comparative origins or outcomes. The functional gene and canonical pathway enrichment analyses provided us further insight into the possible activation of several pathways that were seen in FOSCC that included EMT, hypoxia- and inflammation-related pathways ( 61 65 ), indicating the complementary value of gene expression analysis in this study. EMT typically involves the expression of transcription factors that can activate this cellular program (i.e., SNAI1, TWIST1, ZEB1 , and ZEB2 ), and is characterized by the upregulation of mesenchymal-related genes (e.g., FN1, VIM, CDH2 , and metalloproteinases) and downregulation of epithelial-related genes (i.e., CDH1 and cytokeratins) ( 65 67 ).…”
