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.
