Up-regulation of CXCR4 Expression in PC-3 Cells by Stromal- Derived Factor-1A (CXCL12) Increases Endothelial Adhesion and Transendothelial Migration: Role of MEK/ERK Signaling Pathway–Dependent NF-KB Activation

چکیده
The chemokine stromal-derived factor-1A (SDF-1A/CXCL-12) and its receptor, CXCR4, play a crucial role in adhesion and transendothelium migration (TEM) of prostate cancer cells. We tested the hypothesis that enhanced expression of CXCR4 in prostate cancer cells is dependent upon SDF-1A-mediated activation of nuclear factor-KB (NF-KB). SDF-1A increased the CXCR4 mRNA and protein expression in PC-3 cells but not in LNCaP cells. Similarly, SDF-1A enhanced the NF-KBdependent transcriptional activity in PC-3 cells but not in LNCaP cells. SDF-1A increased PC-3 cell adhesion to the human umbilical vein endothelial cell monolayer and enhanced TEM, which was abrogated with anti-CXCR4 monoclonal antibody (mAb). Suppression of NF-KB activity in PC-3 cells by a mutant IKBA super-repressor adenoviral vector decreased the CXCR4 mRNA expression and inhibited adhesion and TEM. Transient overexpression of p65 subunit of NF-KB in PC-3 cells up-regulated CXCR4 receptor expression and increased the adhesion and TEM of these cells in response to SDF-1A gradient. Treatment of PC-3 cells with SDF-1A leads to nuclear translocation of NF-KB protein within 15 to 30 minutes, which correlated with IKBA phosphorylation. A p42/44 mitogen-activated protein kinase [MAPK, extracellular signal regulated kinase-1/2 (ERK-1/2)] biphasic activation pattern was observed in these cells at 15 minutes and 3 hours after SDF-1A treatment. Phosphorylation of IKB kinase A was observed within 30 minutes, which was blocked by PD98059 [MAPK kinase (MEK) inhibitor]. PD98059 cotreatment significantly inhibited SDF-1A-induced NF-KB reporter activity and CXCR4 receptor expression as shown by flow cytometry. These data suggest that SDF-1A-induced expression of CXCR4 in PC-3 cells is dependent on MEK/ERK signaling cascade and NF-KB activation. (Cancer Res 2005; 65(21): 9891-8)

Involvement of the chemokine receptor CXCR4 and its ligand stromal cell-derived factor 1alpha in breast cancer cell migration through human brain microvascular endothelial cells.
In this study, we have characterized the signaling pathways mediated by CXCR4 in breast cancer cells and its role in breast cancer cell invasion and migration. Stromal cell-derived factor 1alpha (SDF-1alpha; CXCL12) stimulation of breast cancer cells resulted in phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI-3K) activation, AKT phosphorylation, and activation of the FKHRL1 transcription factor. In addition, SDF...

Background Poly cystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is known as a common endocrine disorder in women at reproductive ages and may cause developmental abnormality in oocyte. ERK has found as a regulator protein of Gap junctions (GJ) function and the level of exchanges between two neighbors cells, for example oocyte and surrounding cumulus cells (CCs) in the mammalian ovary. Such exchange is essential...

Metastasis is a hallmark of malignant neuroblastoma and is the main reason for therapeutic failure and recurrence of the tumor. The CXC chemokine receptor-4 (CXCR4), a Gi protein-coupled receptor for the ligand CXCL12/stromal cell-derived factor-1α (SDF-1α), is expressed in various types of tumor. This receptor mediates the homing of tumor cells to specific organs that express the ligand, CXCL1...
متن کاملRegulation of CXCL12 expression by canonical Wnt signaling in bone marrow stromal cells.
CXCL12 (stromal cell-derived factor-1, SDF-1), produced by stromal and endothelial cells including cells of the bone marrow, binds to its receptor CXCR4 and this axis regulates hematopoietic cell trafficking. Recently, osteoclast precursor cells were found to express CXCR4 and a potential role for the CXCL12-CXCR4 axis during osteoclast precursor cell recruitment/retention and development was p...

Emerging evidence shows that the stromal cell–derived factor 1 (SDF-1)/CXCR4 interaction regulates multiple cell signaling pathways and a variety of cellular functions such as cell migration, proliferation, and survival. There is little information linking the cellular functions and individual signaling pathways mediated by SDF-1 and CXCR4 in human cancer cells. In this study, we have shown tha...
