During tumor development and progression to metastatic disease, physiological and pharmacological selective pressures influence parallel adaptive strategies within cancer cell subpopulations. Such adaptations allow cancer cells to withstand these stressful microenvironments. This Darwinian model of stress adaptation often prevents durable clinical responses and influences the emergence of aggressive cancers with increased metastatic fitness. However, the mechanisms contributing to such adaptive stress responses are poorly understood. We now demonstrate that the p66ShcA redox protein, itself a ROS inducer, is essential for survival in response to physiological stressors, including anchorage independence and nutrient deprivation, in the context of poor outcome breast cancers. Mechanistically, we show that p66ShcA promotes both glucose and glutamine metabolic reprogramming in breast cancer cells, to increase their capacity to engage catabolic metabolism and support glutathione synthesis. In doing so, chronic p66ShcA exposure contributes to adaptive stress responses, providing breast cancer cells with sufficient ATP and redox balance needed to withstand such transient stressed states. Our studies demonstrate that p66ShcA functionally contributes to the maintenance of aggressive phenotypes and the emergence of metastatic disease by forcing breast tumors to adapt to chronic and moderately elevated levels of oxidative stress. |\n\n1. Introduction  \nBreast cancer is a heterogeneous disease that is classified into luminal A/B, HER2 and basal/triple negative subtypes [1]. Although targeted therapies have significantly improved survival outcomes for women diagnosed with early-stage estrogen receptor (ER)+ and HER2+ breast cancer, subsets of patients diagnosed with advanced disease develop resistance [2,3]. In addition, many triple negative breast cancer  \n(TNBC) patients develop chemoresistance [4]. These differences in patient outcome arise from tumor plasticity, which is influenced by intrinsic and microenvironmental changes that impact gene expression and metabolic networks, allowing breast cancers to adapt to and exploit physiologic stressors [5]. Invariably, stress-educated cancers acquire metastatic properties, leading to worse survival outcomes.
