The cell surface glycoprotein Trop-2 is commonly overexpressed in carcinomas and represents an exceptional antigen for targeted therapy. Here, we provide evidence that surface Trop-2 expression is functionally connected with an epithelial phenotype in breast and prostate cell lines and in patient tumor samples. We further show that Trop-2 expression is suppressed epigenetically or through the action of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition transcription factors and that deregulation of Trop-2 expression is linked with cancer progression and poor patient prognosis. Moreover, our data suggest that the cancer plasticity-driven intratumoral heterogeneity in Trop-2 expression may significantly contribute to response and resistance to therapies targeting Trop-2-expressing cells.
