GPR54 (KISS1R) Transactivates EGFR to Promote Breast Cancer Cell Invasiveness
Kisspeptins (Kp), peptide products of the Kisspeptin-1 (KISS1) gene are endogenous ligands for a G protein-coupled receptor 54 (GPR54). Previous findings have shown that KISS1 acts as a metastasis suppressor in numerous cancers in humans. However, recent studies have demonstrated that an increase in KISS1 and GPR54 expression in human breast tumors correlates with higher tumor grade and metasta...
متن کاملKisspeptin/KISS1R System in Breast Cancer
Kisspeptins (KP), peptide products of the kisspeptin-1 (KISS1) gene are the endogenous ligands for a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) - KP receptor (KISS1R). KISS1R couples to the Gαq/11 signaling pathway. KISS1 is a metastasis suppressor gene and the KP/KISS1R signaling has anti-metastatic and tumor-suppressant effects in numerous human cancers. On the other hand, recent studies indicate that...
متن کاملAdditional MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell matrix metalloproteinases promote invasiveness.
We are interested in two aspects of a given type of metastatic breast cancer: which potentially cancer-relevant genes are expressed and which factors determine invasiveness. Using reverse transcription real-time PCR, we detected gene expression of 26 matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells, including those of MMP-12, MMP-16 variant 2, MMP-19, MMP-20, MMP-21, MMP-23, M...
متن کاملA novel EGFR isoform confers increased invasiveness to cancer cells.
As a validated therapeutic target in several human cancers, the EGF receptor (EGFR) provides a focus to gain deeper insights into cancer pathophysiology. In this study, we report the identification of a naturally occurring and widely expressed EGFR isoform termed EGFRvA, which substitutes a Ser/Thr-rich peptide for part of the carboxyl-terminal regulatory domain of the receptor. Intriguingly, E...
