上皮间质转化(epithelial-mesenchymal transition,EMT)与肿瘤侵袭转移密切相关.虽然肝细胞生长因子(hepatocyte growth factor,HGF)已被证实为肿瘤EMT的主要诱导剂,但是HGF诱导肿瘤EMT发生的分子机制尚不完全清楚.本研究旨在探讨Snail在HGF诱导肝癌细胞上皮间质转化中的作用.用HGF处理肝癌HepG2和Hep3B细胞,显微镜观察细胞形态变化,划痕试验及Transwell试验检测细胞迁移能力,Western印迹检测Met,AKT的磷酸化及蛋白质表达的变化,Western印迹与real-time RT-PCR检测上皮细胞表面标志E-Cadherin和间质细胞表面标志N-Cadherin、Fibronectin的表达变化,以及EMT相关转录因子的表达变化.经HGF处理的HepG2、Hep3B细胞,Met和AKT的磷酸化水平显著增强;相差倒置显微镜下观察细胞形态向间质型细胞形态转化;细胞划痕和Transwell试验检测细胞的迁移能力较对照组显著增强;Real-time RT-PCR和Western印迹实验显示HGF的诱导能上调间质标记蛋白的表达及下调上皮型标志蛋白的表达.进一步发现,HGF能上调转录因子Snail的表达,干扰Snail能逆转HGF对HepG2和Hep 3B细胞EMT发生的诱导作用.由此可见,HGF可能通过诱导Snail的表达促进肝癌细胞EMT的发生.这为阐明肝癌细胞侵袭转移机制,以及肝癌的防治提供新线索. 相似文献

MAP2K4 encodes a dual-specificity kinase (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 4, or MKK4) that is mutated in a variety of human malignancies, but the biochemical properties of the mutant kinases and their roles in tumorigenesis have not been fully elucidated. Here we showed that 8 out of 11 cancer-associated MAP2K4 mutations reduce MKK4 protein stability or impair its kinase activity. On the basis of findings from bioinformatic studies on human cancer cell lines with homozygous MAP2K4 loss, we posited that MKK4 functions as a tumor suppressor in lung adenocarcinomas that develop in mice owing to expression of mutant Kras and Tp53. Conditional Map2k4 inactivation in the bronchial epithelium of mice had no discernible effect alone but increased the multiplicity and accelerated the growth of incipient lung neoplasias induced by oncogenic Kras. MKK4 suppressed the invasion and metastasis of Kras-Tp53-mutant lung adenocarcinoma cells. MKK4 deficiency increased peroxisomal proliferator-activated receptor γ2 (PPARγ2) expression through noncanonical MKK4 substrates, and PPARγ2 enhanced tumor cell invasion. We conclude that Map2k4 functions as a tumor suppressor in lung adenocarcinoma and inhibits tumor cell invasion by decreasing PPARγ2 levels. 相似文献

The c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway was reported to be involved in myostatin signaling and MKK4 was suggested as the
only upstream kinase for myostatin-induced JNK activation, implying that MKK4 is a suitable target of RNA interference (RNAi)
for blocking myostatin activity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeted
against MKK4 on myostatin-induced downregulation of differentiation marker gene expression. Real-time quantitative PCR revealed
that the level of MKK4 expression was efficiently reduced by MKK4-specific siRNA. Western blot assays showed that knockdown
of MKK4 attenuated the myostatin-induced downregulation of MyoD and myogenin expression. 相似文献

Signal transduction pathways are integral components of the developmental regulatory network that guides progressive cell fate determination. MKK4 and MKK7 are upstream kinases of the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), responsible for channeling physiological and environmental signals to their cellular responses. Both kinases are essential for survival of mouse embryos, but because of embryonic lethality, their precise developmental roles remain largely unknown. Using gene knock-out mouse ESCs, we studied the roles of MKK4 and MKK7 in differentiation in vitro. While MKK4 and MKK7 were dispensable for ESC self-renewal and pluripotency maintenance, they exhibited unique signaling and functional properties in differentiation. MKK4 and MKK7 complemented each other in activation of the JNK-c-Jun cascades and loss of both led to senescence upon cell differentiation. On the other hand, MKK4 and MKK7 had opposite effects on activation of the p38 cascades during differentiation. Specifically, MKK7 reduced p38 activation, while Mkk7(-/-) ESCs had elevated phosphorylation of MKK4, p38, and ATF2, and increased MEF2C expression. Consequently, Mkk7(-/-) ESCs had higher expression of MHC and MLC and enhanced formation of contractile cardiomyocytes. In contrast, MKK4 was required for p38 activation and Mkk4(-/-) ESCs exhibited diminished p-ATF2 and MEF2C expression, resulting in impaired MHC induction and defective cardiomyocyte differentiation. Exogenous MKK4 expression partially restored the ability of Mkk4(-/-) ESCs to differentiate into cardiomyocytes. Our results uncover complementary and interdependent roles of MKK4 and MKK7 in development, and identify the essential requirement for MKK4 in p38 activation and cardiomyocyte differentiation. 相似文献

JNK (c-Jun N-terminal kinase) is a member of the MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) family that regulates a range of biological processes implicated in tumorigenesis and neurodegenerative disorders. For example, genetic studies have demonstrated that the removal of specific Jnk genes can reduce neuronal death associated with cerebral ischaemia. As such, targeting JNK signalling constitutes an obvious opportunity for therapeutic intervention. However, MAPK inhibitors can display toxic effects. Consequently, dual-specificity MKKs (MAPK kinases) may represent more attractive targets. In particular, evidence that blocking JNK activation by removing MKK4 offers an effective therapy to treat pathological conditions has started to emerge. MKK4 was the first JNK activator identified. The remaining level of JNK activity in cells lacking MKK4 expression led to the discovery of a second activator of JNK, named MKK7. Distinct phenotypic abnormalities associated with the targeted deletion of Mkk4 and Mkk7 in mice have revealed that MKK4 and MKK7 have non-redundant function in vivo. Further insights into the specific functions of the JNK activators in cancer cells and in neurons will be of critical importance to validate MKK4 and MKK7 as promising drug targets. 相似文献
