Proteome analysis for downstream targets of oncogenic KRAS--the potential participation of CLIC4 in carcinogenesis in the lung.

ABSTRACT: This study investigated the proteome modulated by oncogenic KRAS in immortalized airway epithelial cells. Chloride intracellular channel protein 4 (CLIC4), S100 proteins (S100A2 and S100A11), tropomyosin 2, cathepsin L1, integrins?3, eukaryotic elongation factor 1, vimentin, and others were discriminated. We here focused on CLIC4 to investigate its potential involvement in carcinogenesis in the lung because previous studies suggested that some chloride channels and chloride channel regulators could function as tumor suppressors. CILC4 protein levels were reduced in some lung cancer cell lines. The restoration of CLIC4 in lung cancer cell lines in which CLIC4 expression was reduced attenuated their growth activity. The immunohistochemical expression of the CLIC4 protein was weaker in primary lung cancer cells than in non-tumorous airway epithelial cells and was occasionally undetectable in some tumors. CLIC4 protein levels were significantly lower in a subtype of mucinous ADC than in others, and were also significantly lower in KRAS-mutated ADC than in EGFR-mutated ADC. These results suggest that the alteration in CLIC4 could be involved in restrictedly the development of a specific fraction of lung adenocarcinomas. The potential benefit of the proteome modulated by oncogenic KRAS to lung cancer research has been demonstrated.

Project description:The precise characteristics that distinguish normal and oncogenic RAS signaling remain obscure. Here, we show that oncogenic RAS and BRAF induce perinuclear relocalization of several RAS pathway proteins, including the kinases CK2 and p-ERK1/2 and the signaling scaffold KSR1. This spatial reorganization requires endocytosis, the kinase activities of MEK-ERK and CK2, and the presence of KSR1. CK2? colocalizes with KSR1 and Rab11, a marker of recycling endosomes, whereas p-ERK associates predominantly with a distinct KSR1-positive endosomal population. Notably, these perinuclear signaling complexes (PSC) are present in tumor cell lines, mouse lung tumors, and mouse embryonic fibroblasts undergoing RAS-induced senescence. PSCs are also transiently induced by growth factors (GF) in nontransformed cells with delayed kinetics (4-6 hours), establishing a novel late phase of GF signaling that appears to be constitutively activated in tumor cells. PSCs provide an essential platform for RAS-induced phosphorylation and activation of the prosenescence transcription factor C/EBP? in primary MEFs undergoing senescence. Conversely, in tumor cells, C/EBP? activation is suppressed by 3'UTR-mediated localization of Cebpb transcripts to a peripheral cytoplasmic domain distinct from the PSC region. Collectively, our findings indicate that sustained PSC formation is a critical feature of oncogenic RAS/BRAF signaling in cancer cells that controls signal transmission to downstream targets by regulating selective access of effector kinases to substrates such as C/EBP?.Significance: In addressing the long-standing question of the difference between normal and oncogenic RAS pathway signaling, this study shows that oncogenic RAS specifically triggers constitutive endocytosis-dependent movement of effector kinases to a perinuclear region, thereby creating connections to unique downstream targets such as the core prosenescence and the inflammatory regulatory transcription factor C/EBP?.
