چکیده

The normal epithelial cell-specific-1 (NES1) gene, also named as KLK10, is recognised as a novel putative tumour suppressor in breast cancer, but few studies have focused on the function of KLK10 in human prostate cancer. Our study confirms that the expression of KLK10 in prostate cancer tissue and cell lines (PC3, DU145, and LNCaP clone FGC) is low. Given that the androgen-independent growth characteristic of the PC3 cell line is more similar to clinical castration-resistant prostate cancer, we studied the role of KLK10 in PC3. In vitro and in vivo assays showed that over-expressing KLK10 in PC3 could decelerate tumour proliferation, which was accompanied with an increase in apoptosis and suppression of glucose metabolism. The related proteins, such as Bcl-2 and HK-2, were down-regulated subsequently. Furthermore, by up-regulating Bcl-2 or HK-2 respectively in the PC3-KLK10 cell line, we observed a subsequent increase of cell proliferation and a synchronous up-regulation of HK-2 and Bcl-2. Besides, KLK10 expression was also increased by Bcl-2 and HK-2, which suggests that there is a negative feedback loop between KLK10 and Bcl-2/HK-2. Thus, our results demonstrated that KLK10 may function as a tumour suppressor by repressing proliferation, enhancing apoptosis and decreasing glucose metabolism in PC3 cells.

بررسی تغییرات بیانmiR-101و ارتباط آن با میزان بیان ژن‌های سرکوب‌کننده تومور PTENو MAGI2در سه رده سلولی سرطان پروستات

Introduction: Defects in PTEN gene play an important role in the initiation of the prostate cancer. MAGI2 is recognized as a frame which assists in stabilizing PTEN protein and enhances its tumor suppressor function. As miR-101 down-regulates MAGI2 expression, it can indirectly cause to reduce the PTEN activity. Methods:LnCap, PC3 and DU-145 prostate cancer cell lines were studied in order to ...

The role for NES1 serine protease as a novel tumor suppressor.

Previously (Liu et al, Cancer Res., 56: 3371-3379, 1996), we isolated a novel serine protease-like gene--Normal Epithelial Cell Specific-1 (NES1)--that is expressed in normal mammary epithelial cells but is down-regulated in most breast cancer cell lines. Here, we demonstrate that stable expression of NES1 in the NES1-negative MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell line suppressed the oncogenicity as re...
