Nuclear FGFR2 negatively regulates hypoxia-induced cell invasion in prostate cancer by interacting with HIF-1 and HIF-2.

ABSTRACT: The fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) is a membrane receptor that promotes cell proliferation and differentiation. FGFR2 is also present in the nucleus, which raises a question on a new role of FGFR2 in regulating gene expression. Hypoxia-inducible factors 1 and 2 (HIF-1 and HIF-2) are nuclear proteins that transactivate many genes essential for cancer survival and metastasis under hypoxic conditions. Here, we investigated if nuclear FGFR2 modulates the HIF-driven hypoxic response. Using the TCGA database, we found that FGFR2 downregulation is associated with poor prognosis in prostate cancer. A gene-set enrichment analysis showed that metastasis- and hypoxia-related genes are associated with a low expression of FGFR2 in prostate cancer. Thus, we tested the possibility that FGFR2 negatively regulates the hypoxia-triggered metastasis of prostate cancer. FGFR2 controls migration and invasion of prostate cancer cells under hypoxia by inhibiting the HIF-driven gene expression. FGFR2 and HIF proteins co-localize and associate in the nucleus under hypoxia. FGFR2 interacts with the transactivation domain of HIF-1? and blocks the recruitment of coactivator p300, resulting in repression of HIF target genes. Based on these results, we propose a novel function of FGFR2 as a metastasis suppressor by controlling HIF-mediated hypoxic responses.

Project description:Transient receptor potential melastatin subfamily member 7 (TRPM7) was essential in the growth and metastatic ability of prostate cancer cells. However, the effects and the relevant molecular mechanisms of TRPM7 on metastasis of prostate cancer under hypoxic atmosphere remain unclear. This study investigated the role of TRPM7 in the metastatic ability of androgen-independent prostate cancer cells under hypoxia. First, data mining was carried out to disclose the relationship between the TRPM7 gene level and the survival of prostate cancer patients. Specific siRNAs were used to knockdown target genes. Western blotting and qPCR were employed to determine protein and gene expression, respectively. The gene transcription activity was evaluated by luciferase activity assay of promoter gene. The protein interaction was determined by coimmunoprecipitation. Wound healing and transwell assays were employed to evaluated cell migration and invasion, respectively. Open access database results showed that high expression of TRPM7 was closely related to the poor survival of prostate cancer patients. Hypoxia simultaneously increased TRPM7 expression and induced HIF-1? accumulation in androgen-independent prostate cancer cells. Knockdown of TRPM7 significantly promoted HIF-1? degradation through the proteasome and inhibited EMT changes in androgen-independent prostate cancer cells under hypoxic condition. Moreover, TRPM7 knockdown increased the phosphorylation of RACK1 and strengthened the interaction between RACK1 and HIF-1? but attenuated the binding of HSP90 to HIF-1?. Whereas knockdown of RACK1 increased the binding of HSP90 to HIF-1?. Furthermore, both TRPM7 and HIF-1? knockdown significantly suppressed hypoxia-induced Annexin A1 protein expression, and suppression of HIF-1?/Annexin A1 signaling significantly inhibited hypoxia-induced cell migration and invasion of androgen-independent prostate cancer cells. Our findings demonstrate that TRPM7 knockdown promotes HIF-1? degradation via an oxygen-independent mechanism involving increased binding of RAKC1 to HIF-1?, and TRPM7-HIF-1?-Annexin A1 signaling axis plays a crucial role in the EMT, cell migration, and invasion of androgen-independent prostate cancer cells under hypoxic conditions.
