PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10) is a phosphatidylinositol triphosphate 3-phosphatase that
counteracts phosphoinositide 3-kinases and has subsequently been implied as a valuable drug target for diabetes and cancer.
Recently, we demonstrated that VO-OHpic is an extremely potent inhibitor of PTEN with nanomolar affinity in vitro and in vivo.
Given the importance of this inhibitor for future drug design and development, its mode of action needed to be elucidated.
It was discovered that inhibition of recombinant PTEN by VO-OHpic is fully reversible. Both K
m
and V
max are affected by VO-OHpic, demonstrating a noncompetitive inhibition of PTEN. The inhibition constants K
ic and K
iu were determined to be 27 ± 6 and 45 ± 11 nM, respectively. Using the artificial phosphatase substrate 3-O-methylfluorescein phosphate (OMFP) or the physiological substrate phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-triphosphate (PIP3) comparable parameters were obtained suggesting that OMFP is a suitable substrate for PTEN inhibition studies and PTEN drug
screening. 相似文献

TSPYL5, encoding testis-specific Y-like protein, has been postulated to be a tumor suppressor gene, and its hypermethylation is often associated with human disease, especially cancer. In this study, we report that the TSPYL5 gene was less methylated (30%) in A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells, which are relatively resistant to γ-radiation, than in H460 lung cancer cells, in which the TSPYL5 gene was hypermethylated (95%); thus, the expression level of TSPYL5 is much higher in A549 cells than in H460 cells. We showed that TSPYL5 suppression with silencing RNA in A549 cells up-regulated cellular PTEN, followed by down-regulation of AKT activation. Therefore, blockage of TSPYL5 sensitized A549 cells to cytotoxic agents such as γ-radiation. In addition, TSPYL5 suppression also showed an increased level of p21WAF1/Cip1 and subsequently induced inhibition of cell growth in A549 cells. The overexpression of TSPYL5 in H460 cells showed the opposite effects. This study provides the first demonstration that TSPYL5 modulates cell growth and sensitization of cells to the detrimental effects of damaging agents via regulation of p21WAF1/Cip1 and PTEN/AKT pathway. 相似文献

Phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN), deleted on chromosome 10, is a potent tumor suppressor. PTEN expression is reduced in advanced bladder cancer and reduction correlates with disease stage. To gain insights into the function of PTEN in human bladder cancer by identifying its binding partners, we developed a novel IPTG inducible PTEN expression system and evaluated this system in the PTEN null UMUC-3 human bladder cancer xenograft model. In this model, induction of PTEN in vivo resulted in reduced tumor growth. We used mass spectrometry to identify PTEN interaction partners in these cells, which identified known interaction partners major vault protein (MVP) and paxillin as well as a novel interaction partner, TRK fused gene (TFG). In conclusion, using a biologically relevant model system to dissect PTEN tumor suppressor function in human bladder cancer, we identified three molecules important for many cellular functions in complex with PTEN. 相似文献

PTEN是一个重要的抑癌基因.为了调查PTEN在H2O2对细胞凋亡诱导过程中的作用及机制,采用Western 印迹方法,检测了在PTEN缺失细胞及对照细胞中H2O2对PI3K/AKT通路的影响;采用Annexin Ⅴ-FITC标记结合流式检测H2O2对PTEN缺失细胞及对照细胞凋亡的诱导.结果表明,在PTEN功能正常的对照细胞中,H2O2短时间活化,长时间抑制PI3K/AKT通路,但PTEN缺失后,H2O2对PI3K/AKT通路的介导被阻断;0.1mmol/L H2O2处理12 h及24 h可以诱导对照细胞的凋亡,但对PTEN缺失细胞没有明显影响.这一结果证明,PTEN通过参与H2O2对PI3K/AKT通路活性的调控影响H2O2介导的凋亡. 相似文献

The PTEN tumor suppressor is a lipid phosphatase that has a central role in regulating the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) signal transduction cascade. Nevertheless, the mechanism by which the PTEN activity is regulated in cells needs further elucidation. Although previous studies have shown that ubiquitination of PTEN can modulate its stability and subcellular localization, the role of ubiquitination in the most critical aspect of PTEN function, its phosphatase activity, has not been fully addressed. Here, we identify a novel E3 ubiquitin ligase of PTEN, Ret finger protein (RFP), that is able to promote atypical polyubiquitinations of PTEN. These ubiquitinations do not lead to PTEN instability or relocalization, but rather significantly inhibit PTEN phosphatase activity and therefore modulate its ability to regulate the PI3K signal transduction cascade. Indeed, RFP overexpression relieves PTEN-mediated inhibitory effects on AKT activation; in contrast, RNAi-mediated knockdown of endogenous RFP enhances the ability of PTEN to suppress AKT activation. Moreover, RFP-mediated ubiquitination of PTEN inhibits PTEN-dependent activation of TRAIL expression and also suppresses its ability to induce apoptosis. Our findings demonstrate a crucial role of RFP-mediated ubiquitination in controlling PTEN activity. 相似文献

Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is induced by multiple factors including increased apoptosis, decreased survival, and reduced extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis in the nucleus pulposus (NP) cells. The tumor suppressor phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted from chromosome 10 (PTEN) is the only known lipid phosphatase counteracting the PI3K/AKT pathway. Loss of PTEN leads to activated PI3K/AKT signaling, which plays a key role in a variety of cancers. However, the role of PTEN/PI3K/AKT signaling nexus in IDD remains unknown. Here, we report that PTEN is overexpressed in degenerative NP, which correlates with inactivated AKT. Using the PTEN knockdown approach by lentivirus‐mediated short interfering RNA gene transfer technique, we report that PTEN decreases survival but induces apoptosis and senescence of NP cells. PTEN also inhibits expression and production of ECM components including collagen II, aggrecan, and proteoglycan. Furthermore, PTEN modulates the expression of ECM regulatory molecules SOX‐9 and matrix metalloproteinase‐3 (MMP‐3). Using small‐molecule AKT inhibitor GDC‐0068, we confirm that PTEN regulates NP cell behaviors through its direct targeting of PI3K/AKT. These findings demonstrate for the first time that PTEN/PI3K/AKT signaling axis plays an important role in the pathogenesis of IDD. Targeting PTEN using gene therapy may represent a promising therapeutic approach against disc degenerative diseases. 相似文献

Loss of the tumor suppressor phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) has frequently been observed in human gliomas, conferring AKT activation and resistance to ionizing radiation (IR) and drug treatments. Recent reports have shown that PTEN loss or AKT activation induces premature senescence, but many details regarding this effect remain obscure. In this study, we tested whether the status of PTEN determined fate of the cell by examining PTEN-deficient U87, U251, and U373, and PTEN-proficient LN18 and LN428 glioma cells after exposure to IR. These cells exhibited different cellular responses, senescence or apoptosis, depending on the PTEN status. We further observed that PTEN-deficient U87 cells with high levels of both AKT activation and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) underwent senescence, whereas PTEN-proficient LN18 cells entered apoptosis. ROS were indispensable for inducing senescence in PTEN-deficient cells, but not for apoptosis in PTEN-proficient cells. Furthermore, transfection with wild-type (wt) PTEN or AKT small interfering RNA induced a change from premature senescence to apoptosis and depletion of p53 or p21 prevented IR-induced premature senescence in U87 cells. Our data indicate that PTEN acts as a pivotal determinant of cell fate, regarding senescence and apoptosis in IR-exposed glioma cells. We conclude that premature senescence could have a compensatory role for apoptosis in the absence of the tumor suppressor PTEN through the AKT/ROS/p53/p21 signaling pathway. 相似文献

Arsenic trioxide (As2O3), an effective agent against acute promyelocytic leukemia, has been reported to inhibit the viability of solid tumors cell lines recently. The detailed molecular mechanism underlying the As2O3‐induced inactivation of the cdc2 and possible functional role of PTEN in the observed G2/M arrest has yet to be elucidated. Here, we assessed the role of PTEN in regulation of As2O3‐mediated G2/M cell cycle arrest in Hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines (HepG2 and SMMC7721). After 24 h following treatment, As2O3 induced a concentration‐dependent accumulation of cells in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. The sustained G2/M arrest by As2O3 is associated with decreased cdc2 protein and increased phospho‐cdc2(Tyr15). As2O3 treatment increased Wee1 levels and decreased phospho‐Wee1(642). Moreover, As2O3 substantially decreased the Ser473 and Thr308 phosphorylation of Akt and upregulated PTEN expression. Downregulation of PTEN by siRNA in As2O3‐treated cells increased phospho‐Wee1(Ser642) while decreased phospho‐cdc2(Tyr15), resulting in decreased the G2/M cell cycle arrest. Therefore, induction of G2/M cell cycle arrest by As2O3 involved upregulation of PTEN. J. Cell. Biochem. 113: 3528–3535, 2012. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

Phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) and protein phosphatase type 2A (PP2A) are negative modulators of PI3K/AKT/survivin signaling. To evaluate immunoexpression of PTEN, PP2A and survivin in adenomyosis, ectopic lesions from 28 patients with adenomyosis and endometria from 30 controls without adenomyosis were employed in the study. The expression of PTEN, PP2A and survivin was examined with the use of immunohistochemistry. We found a decreased expression of PP2A and PTEN in adenomyosis. The expression of PTEN showed great individual differences in adenomyosis, although expression of both PP2A and PTEN was lower in adenomyosis than in normal endometria. In contrast, the expression of survivin was higher in adenomyosis. Our results suggest the important role of the PI3K cascade in the pathogenesis and development of adenomyosis. 相似文献

PI3K pathway exerts its function through its downstream molecule AKT in regulating various cell functions including cell proliferation, cell transformation, cell apoptosis, tumor growth and angiogenesis. PTEN is an inhibitor of PI3K, and its loss or mutation is common in human prostate cancer. But the direct role and mechanism of PI3K/PTEN signaling in regulating angiogenesis and tumor growth in vivo remain to be elucidated. In this study, by using chicken chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) and in nude mice models, we demonstrated that inhibition of PI3K activity by LY294002 decreased PC-3 cells-induced angiogenesis. Reconstitution of PTEN, the molecular inhibitor of PI3K in PC-3 cells inhibited angiogenesis and tumor growth. Immunohistochemical staining indicated that PTEN expression suppressed HIF-1, VEGF and PCNA expression in the tumor xenographs. Similarly, expression of AKT dominant negative mutant also inhibited angiogenesis and tumor growth, and decreased the expression of HIF-1 and VEGF in the tumor xenographs. These results suggest that inhibition of PI3K signaling pathway by PTEN inhibits tumor angiogenesis and tumor growth. In addition, we found that AKT is the downstream target of PI3K in controlling angiogenesis and tumor growth, and PTEN could inhibit angiogenesis by regulating the expression of HIF-1 and VEGF expression through AKT activation in PC-3 cells. 相似文献

Quinolines are a class of chemical compounds with emerging anti-cancer properties. Here, we tested the activity of series
of quinolines and quinoline-like molecules for anti-cancer activity and identified a novel diquinoline, 1-methyl-2-[3-(1-methyl-1,2-dihydroquinolin-2-yliden)prop-1-enyl]quinolinium
iodide (Q2). Q2 induced cell death in leukemia, myeloma, and solid tumor cell lines with LD50s in the low to submicromolar range. Moreover,
Q2 induced cell death in primary acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells preferentially over normal hematopoietic cells. In a mouse
model of leukemia, Q2 delayed tumor growth. Mechanistically, Q2 induced cell death through caspase independent mechanisms. By electron microscopy, Q2 increased cytoplasmic vacuolization and mitochondrial swelling. Potentially consistent with the induction of autophagic cell
death, Q2 treatment led to a punctate distribution of LC3 and increased MDC staining. Thus, Q2 is a novel quinolinium with preclinical activity in malignancies such as leukemia and myeloma and warrants further investigation. 相似文献

The pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy is tightly associated with activation of intracellular hypertrophic signalling pathways, which leads to the synthesis of various proteins. Tripartite motif 10 (TRIM10) is an E3 ligase with important functions in protein quality control. However, its role in cardiac hypertrophy was unclear. In this study, neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCMs) and TRIM10-knockout mice were subjected to phenylephrine (PE) stimulation or transverse aortic constriction (TAC) to induce cardiac hypertrophy in vitro and in vivo, respectively. Trim10 expression was significantly increased in hypertrophied murine hearts and PE-stimulated NRCMs. Knockdown of TRIM10 in NRCMs alleviated PE-induced changes in the size of cardiomyocytes and hypertrophy gene expression, whereas TRIM10 overexpression aggravated these changes. These results were further verified in TRIM10-knockout mice. Mechanistically, we found that TRIM10 knockout or knockdown decreased AKT phosphorylation. Furthermore, we found that TRIM10 knockout or knockdown increased ubiquitination of phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN), which negatively regulated AKT activation. The results of this study reveal the involvement of TRIM10 in pathological cardiac hypertrophy, which may occur by prompting of PTEN ubiquitination and subsequent activation of AKT signalling. Therefore, TRIM10 may be a promising target for treatment of cardiac hypertrophy. 相似文献

Tumor cell can be significantly influenced by various chemical groups of the extracellular matrix proteins. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms involved in the interaction between cancer cells and functional groups in the extracellular matrix remain unknown. Using chemically modified surfaces with biological functional groups (CH3, NH2, OH), it was found that hydrophobic surfaces modified with CH3 and NH2 suppressed cell proliferation and induced the number of apoptotic cells. Mitochondrial dysfunction, cytochrome c release, Bax upregulation, cleaved caspase-3 and PARP, and Bcl-2 downregulation indicated that hydrophobic surfaces with CH3 and NH2 triggered the activation of intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway. Cells on the CH3- and NH2-modified hydrophobic surfaces showed downregulated expression and activation of integrin β1, with a subsequent decrease of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) activity. The RhoA/ROCK/PTEN signaling was then activated to inhibit the phosphorylation of PI3K and AKT, which are essential for cell proliferation. However, pretreatment of MDA-MB-231 cells with SF1670, a PTEN inhibitor, abolished the hydrophobic surface-induced activation of the intrinsic pathway. Taken together, the present results indicate that CH3- and NH2-modified hydrophobic surfaces induce mitochondria-mediated apoptosis by suppressing the PTEN/PI3K/AKT pathway, but not OH surfaces. These findings are helpful to understand the interaction between extracellular matrix and cancer cells, which might provide new insights into the mechanism potential intervention strategies for tumor prognosis. 相似文献
