CCL5 of glioma-associated microglia/macrophages regulates glioma migration and invasion via calcium-dependent matrix metalloproteinase 2.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Glioma-associated microglia/macrophages (GAMs) comprise macrophages of peripheral origin and brain-intrinsic microglia, which support tumor progression. Chemokine C-C ligand 5 (CCL5) is an inflammatory mediator produced by immune cells and is involved in tumor growth and migration in several cancers, including glioma. However, the mechanisms detailing how CCL5 facilitates glioma invasion remain largely unresolved.

Methods

Glioma migration and invasion were determined by wound healing, transwell assay, and 3D µ-slide chemotaxis assay. The expression levels of CCL5, CD68, matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2), phosphorylated Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (p-CaMKII), p-Akt, and phosphorylated proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 were determined by cytokine array, quantitative PCR, western blot, or immunohistochemistry. Zymography and intracellular calcium assays were used to analyze MMP2 activity and intracellular calcium levels, respectively.

Results

CCL5 modulated the migratory and invasive activities of human glioma cells in association with MMP2 expression. In response to CCL5, glioma cells underwent a synchronized increase in intracellular calcium levels and p-CaMKII and p-Akt expression levels. CCL5-directed glioma invasion and increases in MMP2 were suppressed after inhibition of p-CaMKII. Glioma cells tended to migrate toward GAM-conditioned media activated by granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) in which CCL5 was abundant. This homing effect was associated with MMP2 upregulation, and could be ameliorated either by controlling intracellular and extracellular calcium levels or by CCL5 antagonism. Clinical results also revealed the associations between CCL5 and GAM activation.

Conclusion

Our results suggest that modulation of glioma CaMKII may restrict the effect of CCL5 on glioma invasion and could be a potential therapeutic target for alleviating glioma growth.

Project description:The biological and molecular events that regulate the invasiveness of breast tumour cells need to be further revealed to develop effective therapies that stop breast cancer from expanding and metastasising.Human tissue samples of invasive breast cancer and normal breast, as well as breast cancer cell lines, were evaluated for protein kinase D (PKD) expression, to test if altered expression could serve as a marker for invasive breast cancer. We further utilised specific PKD1-shRNA and a system to inducibly-express PKD1 to analyse the role of PKD1 in the invasive behaviour of breast cancer cell lines in two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) culture. Invasive behaviour in breast cancer cell lines has been linked to matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), so we also determined if PKD1 regulates the expression and activity of these enzymes.We found that the serine/threonine kinase, PKD1, is highly expressed in ductal epithelial cells of normal human breast tissue, but is reduced in its expression in more than 95% of all analysed samples of human invasive breast tumours. Additionally, PKD1 is not expressed in highly invasive breast cancer cell lines, whereas non-invasive or very low-invasive breast cancer cell lines express PKD1. Our results further implicate that in MDA-MB-231 cells PKD1 expression is blocked by epigenetic silencing via DNA methylation. The re-expression of constitutively-active PKD1 in MDA-MB-231 cells drastically reduced their ability to invade in 2D and 3D cell culture. Moreover, MCF-7 cells acquired the ability to invade in 2D and 3D cell culture when PKD1 expression was knocked-down by shRNA. PKD1 also regulated the expression of breast cancer cell MMPs, MMP-2, MMP-7, MMP-9, MMP-10, MMP-11, MMP-13, MMP-14 and MMP-15, providing a potential mechanism for PKD1 mediation of the invasive phenotype.Our results identify decreased expression of the PKD1 as a marker for invasive breast cancer. They further suggest that the loss of PKD1 expression increases the malignant potential of breast cancer cells. This may be due to the function of PKD1 as a negative regulator of MMP expression. Our data suggest re-expression of PKD1 as a potential therapeutic strategy.
