Critical role of tristetraprolin and AU-rich element RNA-binding protein 1 in the suppression of cancer cell growth by globular adiponectin.


ABSTRACT: Adiponectin exhibits potent antitumor activities. Herein, we examined the molecular mechanisms underlying suppression of tumor growth by globular adiponectin (gAcrp). We demonstrated that gAcrp suppressed B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) expression, an anti-apoptotic gene, by inducing its mRNA destabilization, which was accompanied with a decrease in cell viability and increased caspase-3 activity in hepatic cancer cells. In addition, gAcrp increased expression of tristetraprolin (TTP) and AU-rich element RNA-binding protein 1 (AUF1), which are mRNA stability regulatory proteins. Moreover, gAcrp-induced suppression of Bcl-2 expression was abrogated by knockdown of TTP or AUF1. These data indicate that gAcrp induces apoptosis of hepatic cancer cells by TTP- and AUF1-mediated Bcl-2 mRNA destabilization, and further suggest that TTP and AUF1 are novel targets mediating the antitumor activity of adiponectin.
