Stromal CD36 loss during tumor progression reflects impairment of PPARγ expression by tumor-derived factors. This PPARγ loss not only directly liberated EC proliferation but also permitted transition of pericytes towards pro-tumorigenic myofibroblast phenotypes capable of elaborating factors that enhanced both angiogenesis and tumor cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo. In mouse xenograft models, rosiglitazone, an activator of PPARγ, demonstrated anti-tumor effects as an early intervention, but not as a treatment, with tumor formation repressing PPARγ and rendering stromal cells insensitive to ligand. Thus, tumor cell signaling can impair the PPARγ-dependent, anti-tumorigenic state of certain stromal cells found in healthy tissues. This study contributes to the understanding of PPARγ as a stromal target for therapeutic intervention. Although robustly expressed in the disease-free (DF) breast stroma, CD36 is consistently absent from the stroma surrounding invasive breast cancers (IBCs). In this study, we primarily observed CD36 expression in adipocytes and intralobular capillaries within the DF breast. Larger vessels concentrated in interlobular regions lacked CD36 and were instead marked by the expression of CD31. When evaluated in perilesional capillaries surrounding ductal carcinoma in situ, a nonobligate IBC precursor, CD36 loss was more commonly observed in lesions associated with subsequent IBC. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) governs the expression of CD36 and genes involved in differentiation, metabolism, angiogenesis, and inflammation. Coincident with CD36 loss, we observed a dramatic suppression of PPARγ and its target genes in capillary endothelial cells (ECs) and pericytes, which typically surround and support the stability of the capillary endothelium. Factors present in conditioned media from malignant cells repressed PPARγ and its target genes not only in cultured ECs and pericytes but also in adipocytes, which require PPARγ for proper differentiation. In addition, we identified a role for PPARγ in opposing the transition of pericytes toward a tumor-supportive myofibroblast phenotype. In mouse xenograft models, early intervention with rosiglitazone, a PPARγ agonist, demonstrated significant antitumor effects; however, following the development of a palpable tumor, the antitumor effects of rosiglitazone were negated by the repression of PPARγ in the mouse stroma. In summary, PPARγ activity in healthy tissues places several stromal cell types in an antitumorigenic state, directly inhibiting EC proliferation, maintaining adipocyte differentiation, and suppressing the transition of pericytes into tumor-supportive myofibroblasts.
