Adseverin: a novel cisplatin-resistant marker in the human bladder cancer cell line HT1376 identified by quantitative proteomic analysis.

ABSTRACT: Cisplatin is currently the most effective antitumor agent available against bladder cancer. However, a majority of patients eventually relapse with cisplatin-resistant disease. Chemoresistance thus remains a major obstacle in bladder cancer therapy. To clarify the molecular mechanisms underlying cisplatin resistance in bladder cancer, we established a cisplatin-resistant subline from the human bladder cancer cell line HT1376 (HT1376-CisR), and conducted large-scale analyses of the expressed proteins using two-dimensional (2D) gel electrophoresis coupled with mass spectrometry (MS). Comparative proteomic analysis of HT1376 and HT1376-CisR cells revealed 36 differentially expressed proteins, wherein 21 proteins were upregulated and 15 were downregulated in HT1376-CisR cells. Among the differentially regulated proteins, adseverin (SCIN), a calcium-dependent actin-binding protein, was overexpressed (4-fold upregulation) in HT1376-CisR, with the increase being more prominent in the mitochondrial fraction than in the cytosol fraction. SCIN mRNA knockdown significantly reduced cell proliferation with mitochondria-mediated apoptosis in HT1376-CisR cells. Immunoprecipitation analysis revealed voltage-dependent anion channels (VDACs) to be bound to SCIN in the mitochondrial fraction. Our results suggest that the VDAC-SCIN interaction may inhibit mitochondria-mediated apoptosis in cisplatin-resistant cells. Targeting the VDAC-SCIN interaction may offer a new therapeutic strategy for cisplatin-resistant bladder cancer.

Project description:Development of aromatase inhibitor resistant breast cancer among postmenopausal women continues to be a major clinical obstacle. Previously, our group demonstrated that as breast cancer cells transition from hormone-dependent to hormone-independent, they are associated with increased growth factor signaling, enhanced cellular motility, and the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT). Given the complexity of cancer stem cells (CSC) and their implications on endocrine resistance and EMT, we sought to understand their contribution towards the development of aromatase inhibitor resistant breast cancer. Cells cultured three dimensionally as mammospheres are enriched for CSCs and more accurately recapitulates tumors in vivo. Therefore, a global proteomic analysis was conducted using letrozole resistant breast cancer cells (LTLT-Ca) mammospheres and compared to their adherent counterparts. Results demonstrated over 1000 proteins with quantitative abundance ratios were identified. Among the quantified proteins, 359 were significantly altered (p < 0.05), where 173 were upregulated and 186 downregulated (p < 0.05, fold change >1.20). Notably, midasin, a chaperone protein required for maturation and nuclear export of the pre-60S ribosome was increased 35-fold. Protein expression analyses confirmed midasin is ubiquitously expressed in normal tissue but is overexpressed in lobular and ductal breast carcinoma tissue as well as ER+ and ER- breast cancer cell lines. Functional enrichment analyses indicated that 19 gene ontology terms and one KEGG pathway were over-represented by the down-regulated proteins and both were associated with protein synthesis. Increased midasin was strongly correlated with decreased relapse free survival in hormone independent breast cancer. For the first time, we characterized the global proteomic signature of CSC-enriched letrozole-resistant cells associated with protein synthesis, which may implicate a role for midasin in endocrine resistance.
