Metastasis-suppressor NME1 controls the invasive switch of breast cancer by regulating MT1-MMP surface clearance.

ABSTRACT: Membrane Type 1 Matrix Metalloprotease (MT1-MMP) contributes to the invasive progression of breast cancers by degrading extracellular matrix tissues. Nucleoside diphosphate kinase, NME1/NM23-H1, has been identified as a metastasis suppressor; however, its contribution to local invasion in breast cancer is not known. Here, we report that NME1 is up-regulated in ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) as compared to normal breast epithelial tissues. NME1 levels drop in microinvasive and invasive components of breast tumor cells relative to synchronous DCIS foci. We find a strong anti-correlation between NME1 and plasma membrane MT1-MMP levels in the invasive components of breast tumors, particularly in aggressive histological grade III and triple-negative breast cancers. Knockout of NME1 accelerates the invasive transition of breast tumors in the intraductal xenograft model. At the mechanistic level, we find that MT1-MMP, NME1 and dynamin-2, a GTPase known to require GTP production by NME1 for its membrane fission activity in the endocytic pathway, interact in clathrin-coated vesicles at the plasma membrane. Loss of NME1 function increases MT1-MMP surface levels by inhibiting endocytic clearance. As a consequence, the ECM degradation and invasive potentials of breast cancer cells are enhanced. This study identifies the down-modulation of NME1 as a potent driver of the in situ-to invasive transition during breast cancer progression.

MT1-MMP dependent repression of the tumor suppressor SPRY4 contributes to MT1-MMP driven melanoma cell motility.

Project description:Metastatic melanoma is the deadliest of all skin cancers. Despite progress in diagnostics and treatment of melanoma, the prognosis for metastatic patients remains poor. We previously showed that Membrane-type 1 Matrix Metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP) is one of the drivers of melanoma metastasis. Classically, MT1-MMP regulates a verity of cellular functions including cell-to-cell interaction and cell-to-matrix communication. Recently, MT1-MMP has been found to also modulate gene expression. To specifically assess MT1-MMP dependent gene regulation in melanoma, microarray gene expression analysis was performed in a melanoma cell line whose metastatic properties depend on the activity of MT1-MMP. We identified the tumor suppressor gene SPRY4 as a new transcriptional target of MT1-MMP that is negatively regulated by the protease. Knockdown of MT1-MMP enhances SPRY4 expression at the mRNA and protein level. SPRY4 expression inversely correlates with that of MT1-MMP in melanoma samples and importantly, correlates with melanoma patient survival. SPRY4 modulates MT1-MMP dependent cell migration such that inhibition of SPRY4 rescues cell migration that has been impaired by MT1-MMP knock down. MT1-MMP decreases SPRY4 in part through an MMP2/RAC1 axis we previously show promotes cell motility downstream of MT1-MMP. These results identify the tumor suppressor SPRY4 as a novel molecular effector of MT1-MMP affecting melanoma cell motility.

RAB2A controls MT1-MMP endocytic and E-cadherin polarized Golgi trafficking to promote invasive breast cancer programs.

Project description:The mechanisms of tumor cell dissemination and the contribution of membrane trafficking in this process are poorly understood. Through a functional siRNA screening of human RAB GTPases, we found that RAB2A, a protein essential for ER-to-Golgi transport, is critical in promoting proteolytic activity and 3D invasiveness of breast cancer (BC) cell lines. Remarkably, RAB2A is amplified and elevated in human BC and is a powerful and independent predictor of disease recurrence in BC patients. Mechanistically, RAB2A acts at two independent trafficking steps. Firstly, by interacting with VPS39, a key component of the late endosomal HOPS complex, it controls post-endocytic trafficking of membrane-bound MT1-MMP, an essential metalloprotease for matrix remodeling and invasion. Secondly, it further regulates Golgi transport of E-cadherin, ultimately controlling junctional stability, cell compaction, and tumor invasiveness. Thus, RAB2A is a novel trafficking determinant essential for regulation of a mesenchymal invasive program of BC dissemination.

Genetic polymorphisms of metastasis suppressor gene NME1 and breast cancer survival.

Project description:PurposeAmple evidence supports an important role of tumor metastasis suppressor genes in cancer metastatic processes. We evaluated the association of genetic polymorphisms of metastasis suppressor gene NME1 with breast cancer prognosis in a follow-up study of patients with primary breast cancer and further investigated the functions of these polymorphisms.Experimental designNME1 genotypes were analyzed in a cohort of 1,134 breast cancer patients recruited as part of the Shanghai Breast Cancer Study who were followed for a median of 7.1 years. In vitro biochemical analyses were carried out to examine the function of NME1 gene polymorphisms.ResultsSingle nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the promoter region of the NME1 gene were found to be associated with breast cancer prognosis. Patients carrying the C allele in rs16949649 were associated with higher breast cancer-specific mortality [hazard ratio (HR), 1.4; 95% confidence interval (95% CI), 1.1-1.9] compared with those carrying the wild-type allele, and the association was more evident in patients with an early-stage cancer (HR, 1.7; 95% CI, 1.2-2.5). SNP rs2302254 was also associated with breast cancer prognosis, and the association was statistically significant for the risk of breast cancer relapse, metastasis, and death (HR, 1.3; 95% CI, 1.0-1.6). In vitro biochemical analyses showed that minor alleles in rs2302254 and rs3760468, which is in strong linkage disequilibrium with rs16949646, altered nuclear proteins binding capacity and reduced NME1 promoter activity, supporting the results from an association study of these SNPs with breast cancer survival.ConclusionPromoter polymorphisms in the NME1 gene may alter its expression and influence breast cancer survival.

Regulation of metastasis suppressor NME1 by a key metabolic cofactor coenzyme A.

Project description:The metastasis suppressor protein NME1 is an evolutionarily conserved and multifunctional enzyme that plays an important role in suppressing the invasion and metastasis of tumour cells. The nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDPK) activity of NME1 is well recognized in balancing the intracellular pools of nucleotide diphosphates and triphosphates to regulate cytoskeletal rearrangement and cell motility, endocytosis, intracellular trafficking, and metastasis. In addition, NME1 was found to function as a protein-histidine kinase, 3'-5' exonuclease and geranyl/farnesyl pyrophosphate kinase. These diverse cellular functions are regulated at the level of expression, post-translational modifications, and regulatory interactions. The NDPK activity of NME1 has been shown to be inhibited in vitro and in vivo under oxidative stress, and the inhibitory effect mediated via redox-sensitive cysteine residues. In this study, affinity purification followed by mass spectrometric analysis revealed NME1 to be a major coenzyme A (CoA) binding protein in cultured cells and rat tissues. NME1 is also found covalently modified by CoA (CoAlation) at Cys109 in the CoAlome analysis of HEK293/Pank1β cells treated with the disulfide-stress inducer, diamide. Further analysis showed that recombinant NME1 is efficiently CoAlated in vitro and in cellular response to oxidising agents and metabolic stress. In vitro CoAlation of recombinant wild type NME1, but not the C109A mutant, results in the inhibition of its NDPK activity. Moreover, CoA also functions as a competitive inhibitor of the NME1 NDPK activity by binding non-covalently to the nucleotide binding site. Taken together, our data reveal metastasis suppressor protein NME1 as a novel binding partner of the key metabolic regulator CoA, which inhibits its nucleoside diphosphate kinase activity via non-covalent and covalent interactions.

Cytoplasmic Tail of MT1-MMP: A Hub of MT1-MMP Regulation and Function.

Project description:MT1-MMP (MMP-14) is a multifunctional protease that regulates ECM degradation, activation of other proteases, and a variety of cellular processes, including migration and viability in physiological and pathological contexts. Both the localization and signal transduction capabilities of MT1-MMP are dependent on its cytoplasmic domain that constitutes the final 20 C-terminal amino acids, while the rest of the protease is extracellular. In this review, we summarize the ways in which the cytoplasmic tail is involved in regulating and enacting the functions of MT1-MMP. We also provide an overview of known interactors of the MT1-MMP cytoplasmic tail and the functional significance of these interactions, as well as further insight into the mechanisms of cellular adhesion and invasion that are regulated by the cytoplasmic tail.

Metastasis Suppressor NME1 Directly Activates Transcription of the ALDOC Gene in Melanoma Cells.

Project description:BACKGROUND/AIM:NME/NM23 nucleoside diphosphate kinase 1 (NME1) is a metastasis suppressor gene, exhibiting reduced expression in metastatic cancers and the ability to suppress metastatic activity of cancer cells. We previously identified NME1-regulated genes with prognostic value in human melanoma. This study was conducted in melanoma cell lines aiming to elucidate the mechanism through which NME regulates one of these genes, aldolase C (ALDOC). MATERIALS AND METHODS:ALDOC mRNA and protein expression was measured using qRT-PCR and immunoblot analyses. Promoter-luciferase constructs and chromatin immunoprecipitation were employed to measure the impact of NME1 on ALDOC transcription. RESULTS:NME1 enhanced ALDOC transcription, evidenced by increased expression of ALDOC pre-mRNA and activity of an ALDOC promoter-luciferase module. NME1 was detected at the ALDOC promoter, and forced NME1 expression resulted in enhanced occupancy of the promoter by NME1, increased presence of epigenetic activation markers (H3K4me3 and H3K27ac), and recruitment of RNA polymerase II. CONCLUSION:This is the first study to indicate that NME1 induces transcription through its direct binding to the promoter region of a target gene.

Pancreatic tumor cell metastasis is restricted by MT1-MMP binding protein MTCBP-1.

Project description:The process by which tumor cells mechanically invade through surrounding stroma into peripheral tissues is an essential component of metastatic dissemination. The directed recruitment of the metalloproteinase MT1-MMP to invadopodia plays a critical role in this invasive process. Here, we provide mechanistic insight into MT1-MMP cytoplasmic tail binding protein 1 (MTCBP-1) with respect to invadopodia formation, matrix remodeling, and invasion by pancreatic tumor cells. MTCBP-1 localizes to invadopodia and interacts with MT1-MMP. We find that this interaction displaces MT1-MMP from invadopodia, thereby attenuating their number and function and reducing the capacity of tumor cells to degrade matrix. Further, we observe an inverse correlation between MTCBP-1 and MT1-MMP expression both in cultured cell lines and human pancreatic tumors. Consistently, MTCBP-1-expressing cells show decreased ability to invade in vitro and metastasize in vivo. These findings implicate MTCBP-1 as an inhibitor of the metastatic process.

SNX27-retromer assembly recycles MT1-MMP to invadopodia and promotes breast cancer metastasis.

Project description:A variety of metastatic cancer cells use actin-rich membrane protrusions, known as invadopodia, for efficient ECM degradation, which involves trafficking of proteases from intracellular compartments to these structures. Here, we demonstrate that in the metastatic breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231, retromer regulates the matrix invasion activity by recycling matrix metalloprotease, MT1-MMP. We further found that MT2-MMP, another abundantly expressed metalloprotease, is also invadopodia associated. MT1- and MT2-MMP showed a high degree of colocalization but were located on the distinct endosomal domains. Retromer and its associated sorting nexin, SNX27, phenocopied each other in matrix degradation via selectively recycling MT1-MMP but not MT2-MMP. ITC-based studies revealed that both SNX27 and retromer could directly interact with MT1-MMP. Analysis from a publicly available database showed SNX27 to be overexpressed or frequently altered in the patients having invasive breast cancer. In xenograft-based studies, SNX27-depleted cell lines showed prolonged survival of SCID mice, suggesting a possible implication for overexpression of the sorting nexin in tumor samples.

MT1-MMP recruits the ER-Golgi SNARE Bet1 for efficient MT1-MMP transport to the plasma membrane.

Project description:Metastasis is a major cause of cancer-related death. Membrane type 1-matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP) is a critical protease for local invasion and metastasis. MT1-MMP is synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and transported in vesicles to invadopodia, specialized subdomains of the plasma membrane, through secretory and endocytic recycling pathways. The molecular mechanism underlying intracellular transport of MT1-MMP has been extensively studied, but is not fully understood. We show that MT1-MMP diverts the SNARE Bet1 from its function in ER-Golgi transport, to promote MT1-MMP trafficking to the cell surface, likely to invadopodia. In invasive cells, Bet1 is localized in MT1-MMP-positive endosomes in addition to the Golgi apparatus, and forms a novel SNARE complex with syntaxin 4 and endosomal SNAREs. MT1-MMP may also use Bet1 for its export from raft-like structures in the ER. Our results suggest the recruitment of Bet1 at an early stage after MT1-MMP expression promotes the exit of MT1-MMP from the ER and its efficient transport to invadopodia.

Tumor cell MT1-MMP is dispensable for osteosarcoma tumor growth, bone degradation and lung metastasis.

Project description:The membrane-anchored matrix metalloprotease MT1-MMP is a potent collagenolytic enzyme with a well-established role in extracellular matrix turnover and cellular invasion into collagen-rich tissues. MT1-MMP is highly expressed in various types of cancer and has been demonstrated to be directly involved in several stages of tumor progression, including primary tumor growth, angiogenesis, invasion and metastasis. Osteosarcoma is the most common type of primary bone cancer. This disease is characterized by invasive tumor growth, leading to extensive bone destruction, and metastasis to the lungs. The tumor cells in human osteosarcoma display a strong expression of MT1-MMP, but the role of MT1-MMP in osteosarcoma progression is currently unknown. In this study, we investigated the role of MT1-MMP during various stages of osteosarcoma development. We utilized an optimized orthotopic murine osteosarcoma model and human osteosarcoma cells in which the MT1-MMP gene was knocked out using CRISPR/Cas9. We observed a strong expression of MT1-MMP in wildtype cells of both primary tumors and lung metastases, but, surprisingly, MT1-MMP deficiency did not affect primary tumor growth, bone degradation or the formation and growth of lung metastases. We therefore propose that, unlike findings reported in other cancers, tumor-expressed MT1-MMP is dispensable for all stages of osteosarcoma progression.
