IGFBP5 increases cell invasion and inhibits cell proliferation by EMT and Akt signaling pathway in Glioblastoma multiforme cells.

ABSTRACT: Background:Recurrence of Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) seems to be the rule despite combination therapies. Cell invasion and cell proliferation are major reasons for recurrence of GBM. And insulin-like growth factor binding protein 5 (IGFBP5) is the most conserved of the IGFBPs and is frequently dysregulated in cancers and metastatic tissues. Results:By studying the human glioma tissues, we find that IGFBP5 expression associate to the histopathological classification and highly expressed in GBM. Using IGFBP5 mutants we demonstrate that knockdown of IGFBP5 inhibited cell invasion, whereas promoting cell proliferation in GBM cells. Mechanistically, we observed that promoting GBM cell proliferation by inhibiting IGFBP5 was associated with stimulating Akt (Protein kinase B) phosphorylation. However, IGFBP5 promote GBM cell invasion was related to the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Furthermore, the Chinese Glioma Genome Altas (CGGA) database show that IGFBP5 is significantly increased in recurrent glioma and it predicted worse survival. Conclusions:The obtained results indicate that IGFBP5 has two sides in GBM-inhibiting cell proliferation but promoting cell invasion.
