Src SUMOylation Inhibits Tumor Growth Via Decreasing FAK Y925 Phosphorylation.

ABSTRACT: Src, a non-receptor tyrosine kinase protein, plays a critical role in cell proliferation and tumorigenesis. SUMOylation, a reversible ubiquitination-like post-translational modification, is vital for tumor progression. Here, we report that the Src protein can be SUMOylated at lysine 318 both in vitro and in vivo. Hypoxia can induce a decrease of Src SUMOylation along with an increase of Y419 phosphorylation, a phosphorylation event required for Src activation. On the other hand, treatment with hydrogen peroxide can enhance Src SUMOylation. Significantly, ectopic expression of SUMO-defective mutation, Src K318R, promotes tumor growth more potently than that of wild-type Src, as determined by migration assay, soft agar assay, and tumor xenograft experiments. Consistently, Src SUMOylation leads to a decrease of Y925 phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK), an established regulatory event of cell migration. Our results suggest that SUMOylation of Src at lysine 318 negatively modulate its oncogenic function by, at least partially, inhibiting Src-FAK complex activity.

Project description:IntroductionGlobally, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most common malignancy and it has the fourth highest mortality. MicroRNAs play a significant part in biological processes in cell formation and advancement by targeting genes in many cancers including HCC.ObjectiveIn the present study we examine the involvement of miR-4521 and FAM129A correlations in HCC occurrence and progression.MethodsExpression levels of miR-4521 and FAM129A in HCC tissues and cells were detected. Immunohistochemistry was carried out to detect expression of FAM129A, MMP9 and TIMP-1 in HCC tissues. Western blot assays were used to examine expression levels of different genes involve in signaling pathways. Transwell chamber, MTT and wound healing assays were performed to check cell migration, invasion and proliferation rates.ResultsOverexpression of FAM129A positively correlated with upregulation of MMP9 and negatively correlated with TIMP-1 in HCC patient samples, which encouraged progression and metastasis of HCC. An antagonistic relation between miR-4521 and FAM129A was detected in current study, down-regulation of miR-4521 and up-regulation of FAM129A was demonstrated in HCC tissues and cell lines as compare to normal tissue samples and the normal cell line LO2. Overexpressing miR-4521 and silencing FAM129A impaired HCC cell migratory and invasive properties and suppressed cell proliferation. Mutually, miR-4521-FAM129A axial regulation inhibited in vitro proliferation of cells by promoting apoptosis through the p-FAK/p-AKT/MDM2/P53 and p-FAK/p-AKT/BCL-2/BAX/Cytochrome-C/Caspase-3/Caspase-9 pathways, respectively, and suppressed the migration and invasion capabilities of HCCLM3 and HepG2 cells via the TIMP-1/MMP9/MMP2 and p-FAK/p-AKT pathway.ConclusionOur work found the axial regulation mechanism of miR-4521-FAM129A in HCC. Deficiency of miR-4521 and abundance of FAM129A synergistically enhanced cancer progression by increasing cell proliferation and malignant invasion and by inhibiting apoptosis. These discoveries suggest that miR-4521/FAM129A might play a vital role in hepatic cancer progression and could be a candidate for its therapy.
