Mannose 6-phosphate/insulin-like growth factor 2 receptor limits cell invasion by controlling alphaVbeta3 integrin expression and proteolytic processing of urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor.

ABSTRACT: The multifunctional mannose 6-phosphate/insulin-like growth factor 2 receptor (M6P/IGF2R) is considered a tumor suppressor. We report here that RNA interference with M6P/IGF2R expression in urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA)/urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) expressing human cancer and endothelial cells resulted in increased pericellular plasminogen activation, cell adhesion, and higher invasive potential through matrigel. M6P/IGF2R silencing led also to the cell surface accumulation of urokinase and plasminogen and enhanced expression of alphaV integrins. Genetic rescue experiments and inhibitor studies revealed that the enhanced plasminogen activation was due to a direct effect of M6P/IGF2R on uPAR, whereas increased cell adhesion to vitronectin was dependent on alphaV integrin expression and not uPAR. Increased cell invasion of M6P/IGF2R knockdown cells was rescued by cosilencing both uPAR and alphaV integrin. Furthermore, we found that M6P/IGF2R expression accelerates the cleavage of uPAR. M6P/IGF2R silencing resulted in an increased ratio of full-length uPAR to the truncated D2D3 fragment, incapable of binding most uPAR ligands. We conclude that M6P/IGF2R controls cell invasion by regulating alphaV integrin expression and by accelerating uPAR cleavage, leading to the loss of the urokinase/vitronectin/integrin-binding site on uPAR.

Project description:Data from clinical studies, cell culture, and animal models implicate the urokinase (uPA)/Plasminogen (Plg) system in the development of atherosclerosis and aneurysms. However, the mechanisms through which uPA/Plg stimulate these diseases are not yet defined. We used genetically modified, atherosclerosis-prone mice, including mice with macrophage-specific uPA overexpression to clarify mechanisms of uPA/Plg-accelerated atherosclerosis and aneurysm formation. Microarray studies were performed to identify potential mediators of uPA-accelerated atherosclerosis. These studies identified S100A8 and S100A9 mRNA as the most highly upregulated transcripts in uPA-overexpressing macrophages; upregulation of S100A9 protein in uPA-overexpressing macrophages was confirmed by Western blotting. S100A8/A9, which are atherogenic in mice and are expressed in human atherosclerotic plaques, are also upregulated in aortae of mice with uPA-overexpressing macrophages, and macrophage S100A9 mRNA is upregulated by exposure of wild-type macrophages to medium from uPA-overexpressing macrophages. Bioinformatics analysis of the microarray data suggest significant effects of uPA overexpression on cell migration and cell-matrix interactions. Our results confirm—in a second animal model—that macrophage-expressed uPA stimulates atherosclerosis and aortic dilation. They also implicate specific pathways in uPA/Plg-accelerated atherosclerosis and aneurysmal disease. Six independent biological replicate RNA samples were prepared from thioglycollate-elicited peritoneal macrophages from mice of two different genotypes: SR-uPA+/0 transgenic (overexpress uPA in macrophages) and nontransgenic, respectively), for a total of 12 independent RNA samples. Both transgenic and nontransgenic mice were Apoe-/- and were fed Western diet from 5-15 weeks before peritoneal macrophages were elicited. In addition, from the six samples of each genotype, a pooled sample was prepared by combining the six genotype-specific samples. Each of the two pooled samples was assayed on the BeadChip in two technical replicates, for a total of 16 hybridizations performed using two Illumina Mouse Ref-8 v1.1 chips.
