SHIP2 inhibition alters redox-induced PI3K/AKT and MAP kinase pathways via PTEN over-activation in cervical cancer cells.

ABSTRACT: PI(3,4,5)P3 is required for AKT activation. The level of PI(3,4,5)P3 is constantly regulated through balanced synthesis by PI3 kinase and degradation by phosphoinositide phosphatases PTEN and SHIP2, known as negative regulators of AKT. Here, I show that SHIP2 inhibition in cervical cancer cell lines alters H2 O2 -mediated AKT and MAPK/ERK pathway activation. In addition, SHIP2 inhibition enhances reactive oxygen species generation. Interestingly, I found that SHIP2 inhibition and H2 O2 treatment enhance lipid and protein phosphatase activity of PTEN. Pharmacological targeting or RNAi-mediated knockdown of PTEN rescue ERK and AKT activation. Using a series of pharmacological and biochemical approaches, I provide evidence that crosstalk between SHIP2 and PTEN occurs upon an increase in oxidative stress to modulate the activity of MAPK and PI3/ATK pathways.

Phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P3) is required for protein kinase B (AKT) activation. The level of PI(3,4,5)P3 is constantly regulated through balanced synthesis by phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and degradation by phosphoinositide phosphatases phosphatase and tensin homologue (PTEN) and SH2-domain containing phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate 5-phosphatase 2 (SHIP2), known as negative regulators of AKT. Here, I show that SHIP2 inhibition in cervical cancer cell lin ...[more]

Project description:BackgroundPhosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) is an important tumor suppressor gene, and its encoded protein has activities of both a protein phosphatase and a lipid phosphatase. However, the substitution effect of protein phosphatase activity remains unclear. PI3K/Akt is the most common pathway negatively regulated by PTEN. The Hippo and PI3K/Akt pathways have a joint effect in regulating cell proliferation and apoptosis. Therefore, how PTEN lipid phosphatase inactivation contributes to the occurrence and development of gastric cancer and the potential role of the Hippo and PI3K/Akt pathways in PTEN lipid phosphatase inactivation mediated gastric tumorigenesis remain to be explored.MethodsImmunohistochemical staining was performed to detect the expression of p-PTEN and YAP in a gastric cancer tissue microarray. Stable cell lines expressing a wild-type or dominant-negative mutant PTEN were established. The proliferation and migration of stable cells were detected by MTT, BrdU, and colony-formation, transwell assay and high content analysis in vitro, and tumor growth differences were observed in xenograft nude mice. Changes in the expression of key molecules in the Hippo and Akt signaling pathways were detected by western blot. Nuclear-cytoplasm separation, immunofluorescence and coimmunoprecipitation analyses were conducted to explore the dysregulation of Hippo in the stable cell lines.ResultsPTEN lipid phosphatase inactivation strongly promoted the proliferation and migration of gastric cancer cells in vitro and tumor growth in vivo. A immunohistochemical analysis of gastric cancer tissues revealed a significant correlation between phosphorylated PTEN and nuclear YAP expression, and both were determined to be independent prognostic factors for gastric cancer. Mechanistically, PTEN lipid phosphatase inactivation abolished the MOB1-LATS1/2 interaction, decreased YAP phosphorylation and finally promoted YAP nuclear translocation, which enhanced the synergistic effect of YAP-TEAD, thus inducing cell proliferation and migration. Moreover, PTEN lipid phosphatase inactivation promoted the PI3K/Akt pathway, and disruption of YAP-TEAD-driven transcription decreased the activation of Akt in a dose-dependent manner.ConclusionsTaken together, our findings indicate that PTEN lipid phosphatase inactivation links the Hippo and PI3K/Akt pathways to promote gastric tumorigenesis and cancer development.

Project description:The mammalian signalling pathway involving class I PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase), PTEN (phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphatase) and PKB (protein kinase B)/c-Akt has roles in multiple processes, including cell proliferation and apoptosis. To facilitate novel approaches for genetic, molecular and pharmacological analyses of these proteins, we have reconstituted this signalling pathway by heterologous expression in the unicellular eukaryote, Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast). High-level expression of the p110 catalytic subunit of mammalian PI3K dramatically inhibits yeast cell growth. This effect depends on PI3K kinase activity and is reversed partially by a PI3K inhibitor (LY294002) and reversed fully by co-expression of catalytically active PTEN (but not its purported yeast orthologue, Tep1). Growth arrest by PI3K correlates with loss of PIP2 (phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate) and its conversion into PIP3 (phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate). PIP2 depletion causes severe rearrangements of actin and septin architecture, defects in secretion and endocytosis, and activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase, Slt2. In yeast producing PIP3, PKB/c-Akt localizes to the plasma membrane and its phosphorylation is enhanced. Phospho-specific antibodies show that both active and kinase-dead PKB/c-Akt are phosphorylated at Thr308 and Ser473. Thr308 phosphorylation, but not Ser473 phosphorylation, requires the yeast orthologues of mammalian PDK1 (3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase-1): Pkh1 and Pkh2. Elimination of yeast Tor1 and Tor2 function, or of the related kinases (Tel1, Mec1 and Tra1), did not block Ser473 phosphorylation, implicating another kinase(s). Reconstruction of the PI3K/PTEN/Akt pathway in yeast permits incisive study of these enzymes and analysis of their functional interactions in a simplified context, establishes a new tool to screen for novel agonists and antagonists and provides a method to deplete PIP2 uniquely in the yeast cell.
