In humans, NM23-H1 is a metastasis suppressor whose expression is reduced in metastatic melanoma and breast carcinoma cells, and which possesses the ability to inhibit metastatic growth without significant impact on the transformed phenotype. NM23-H1 exhibits three enzymatic activities in vitro, each with potential to maintain genomic stability, a 3'-5' exonuclease and two kinases, nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDPK), and protein histidine kinase. Herein we have investigated the potential contributions of NM23 proteins to DNA repair in the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which contains a single NM23 homolog, YNK1. Ablation of YNK1 delayed repair of UV- and etoposide-induced nuclear DNA damage by 3-6h. However, YNK1 had no impact upon the kinetics of MMS-induced DNA repair. Furthermore, YNK1 was not required for repair of mitochondrial DNA damage. To determine whether the nuclear DNA repair deficit manifested as an increase in mutation frequency, the CAN1 forward assay was employed. An YNK1 deletion was associated with increased mutation rates following treatment with either UV (2.6x) or MMS (1.6 x). Mutation spectral analysis further revealed significantly increased rates of base substitution and frameshift mutations following UV treatment in the ynk1Delta strain. This study indicates a novel role for YNK1 in DNA repair in yeast, and suggests an anti-mutator function that may contribute to the metastasis suppressor function of NM23-H1 in humans. 相似文献

Two metastasis associated proteins, CD44v6 and NM23-H1, are expressed by normal lymphoid cells, the former serving as activation marker and the later as a constitutive protein. CD44v6 is considered as a marker of poor prognosis of various hematological cancers but its expression was not demonstrated in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). On the other hand, NM23-H1 is considered as a differentiation inhibitory factor in various hematological cancers and as a marker of poor prognosis. Therefore we have analyzed the expression of CD44v6 and NM23-H1 in bone marrow of sixteen pediatric ALL patients using immunocytochemistry. For the first time, we have demonstrated the expression of CD44v6 protein epitopes on leukemic cells in a proportion of ALL cases (6/16), primarily in the medium/high risk group (except one case), suggesting a possible association to an unfavorable outcome. On the other hand, NM23-H1 protein expression was maintained in leukemic cells in 50% of both low and medium/high risk ALL cases. The majority of the pediatric ALL cases expressed only one of the metastasis associated proteins (10/16). This feature is highly similar to the observations made in several adult solid cancers. The potential of CD44v6 expression in leukemic cells as prognosticator in pediatric ALL has to be evaluated in a larger clinical trial. 相似文献

NM23-H1 is a metastasis suppressor protein that exhibits 3′-5′ exonuclease activity in vitro. As 3′-5′ exonucleases are generally required for maintenance of genome integrity, this activity represents a plausible candidate mediator of the metastasis suppressor properties of the NM23-H1 molecule. Consistent with an antimutator function, ablation of the yeast NM23 homolog, YNK1, results in increased mutation rates following exposure to UV irradiation and exposure to the DNA damaging agents etoposide, cisplatin, and MMS. In human cells, a DNA repair function is further suggested by increased NM23-H1 expression and nuclear translocation following DNA damage. Also, forced expression of NM23-H1 in NM23-deficient and metastatic cell lines results in coordinate downregulation of multiple DNA repair genes, possibly reflecting genomic instability associated with the NM23-deficient state. To assess the relevance of the 3′-5′ exonuclease activity of NM23-H1 to its antimutator and metastasis suppressor functions, a panel of mutants harboring defects in the 3′-5′ exonuclease and other enzymatic activities of the molecule (NDPK, histidine kinase) have been expressed by stable transfection in the melanoma cell line, 1205Lu. Pilot in vivo metastasis assays indicate 1205Lu cells are highly responsive to the metastasis suppressor effects of NM23-H1, thus providing a valuable model for measuring the extent to which the nuclease function opposes metastasis and metastatic progression. 相似文献

NM23 (NDP kinase) modulates the gating of muscarinic K+ channels by agonists through a mechanism distinct from GTP regeneration. To better define the function of NM23 in this pathway and to identify sites in NM23 that are important for its role in muscarinic K+ channel function, we utilized MDA-MB-435 human breast carcinoma cells that express low levels of NM23-H1. M2 muscarinic receptors and GIRK1/GIRK4 channel subunits were co-expressed in cells stably transfected with vector only (control), wild-type NM23-H1, or several NM23-H1 mutants. Lysates from all cell lines tested exhibit comparable nucleoside diphosphate (NDP) kinase activity. Whole cell patch clamp recordings revealed a substantial reduction of the acute desensitization of muscarinic K+ currents in cells overexpressing NM23-H1. The mutants NM23-H1P96S and NM23-H1S44A resembled wild-type NM23-H1 in their ability to reduce desensitization. In contrast, mutants NM23-H1S120G and NM23-H1S120A completely abolished the effect of NM23-H1 on desensitization of muscarinic K+ currents. Furthermore, NM23-H1S120G potentiated acute desensitization, indicating that this mutant retains the ability to interact with the muscarinic pathway, but has properties antithetical to those of the wild-type protein. We conclude that NM23 acts as a suppressor of the processes leading to the desensitization of muscarinic K+ currents, and that Ser-120 is essential for its actions. 相似文献

Clinical-translational strategies for the elevation of Nm23-H1 metastasis suppressor gene expression
Jean-Claude Marshall Jong Heun Lee Patricia S. Steeg 《Molecular and cellular biochemistry》2009,329(1-2):115-120
Interruption of the tumor metastatic process is a new, thought provoking molecular target for the treatment of cancer. The Nm23-H1 metastasis suppressor gene stands as a validated molecular target owing to its reduced expression in many aggressive human tumors, and the reduction in metastatic potential in vivo upon re-expression in multiple cell lines. Several compounds have been identified which elevate Nm23-H1 expression in vitro including indomethacin, γ Linolenic Acid, trichostatin A, 5-aza-deoxycytidine, and high dose medroxyprogesterone acetate. Using a model of lung metastatic colonization by MDA-MB-231 human breast carcinoma cells, we demonstrated that high dose MPA reduced the formation of overt lung metastases by 37–46% and those metastases that formed were statistically smaller. A Phase II clinical trial of high dose MPA, alone or in combination with metronomic chemotherapy has recently opened. 相似文献

Tumor suppressor NM23-H1 is a granzyme A-activated DNase during CTL-mediated apoptosis,and the nucleosome assembly protein SET is its inhibitor 总被引:40,自引:0,他引:40
Granzyme A (GzmA) induces a caspase-independent cell death pathway characterized by single-stranded DNA nicks and other features of apoptosis. A GzmA-activated DNase (GAAD) is in an ER associated complex containing pp32 and the GzmA substrates SET, HMG-2, and Ape1. We show that GAAD is NM23-H1, a nucleoside diphosphate kinase implicated in suppression of tumor metastasis, and its specific inhibitor (IGAAD) is SET. NM23-H1 binds to SET and is released from inhibition by GzmA cleavage of SET. After GzmA loading or CTL attack, SET and NM23-H1 translocate to the nucleus and SET is degraded, allowing NM23-H1 to nick chromosomal DNA. GzmA-treated cells with silenced NM23-H1 expression are resistant to GzmA-mediated DNA damage and cytolysis, while cells overexpressing NM23-H1 are more sensitive. 相似文献

The nm23 gene product is one of several possible mediators of cancer invasion and metastasis. As the amounts of nm23-H1 mRNA
and gene product are reduced in metastatic lymph nodes from patients with papillary carcinoma of the thyroid, we examined
the expression of nm23 gene product in 115 thyroid cancers, 78 ovarian cancers, 63 breast cancers, and metastatic lymph node
tissues by immunohistochemistry. It was found that nm23-H1, but not nm23-H2 gene product, was expressed in primary sites of
thyroid, ovarian, and breast cancers, except for medullary and anaplastic carcinomas of the thyroid, but expressed only weakly
or poorly in metastatic lymph nodes. Although nm23-H1 gene product expression was lower in anaplastic and medullary carcinomas
of the thyroid, there was no significant difference in nm23-H1 gene product expression among histological types of ovarian
and breast cancers. Our data indicate that the nm23-H1 gene product may play a role in metastasis in these hormone-producing
organs and that other factors may be involved in metastasis of anaplastic and medullary carcinomas of the thyroid. 相似文献

The nm23 gene is overexpressed in many hematological malignancies and other neoplasms. Some tumor cell lines that overexpress NM23 secrete this protein into extracellular environment. In this study, we found that the serum concentration of NM23-H1 protein was significantly higher in patients with various hematological malignancies. The serum level of NM23-H1 protein was clinically useful as a prognostic factor in malignant lymphoma and acute myelogeneous leukemia (AML). The level of NM23-H1 protein in all of the normal serum samples examined was lower than 10 ng/mL, while those in the tumors varied from about 0 to 1000 ng/mL. Exogenously added NM23-H1 protein did not affect the growth or survival of various leukemia and lymphoma cell lines. However, NM23-H1 protein inhibited the survival of adherent normal peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMNC) at 100–1000 ng/mL, and slightly stimulated the survival of nonadherent PBMNC. These results suggest that the effect of NM23-H1 protein on normal PBMNC may be associated with a poor prognosis in hematological malignancies. 相似文献

Metastatic dissemination represents a leading cause of death in cancer patients. Elucidating the mechanisms of the metastatic process is therefore essential to control it. Since 1988, when the NME (NM23) gene was discovered, several genes specifically suppressing the metastatic potential of tumor cells, have been identified. These metastasis suppressor genes, which exhibit a reduced expression in metastatic tumor cells, are defined by their capacity to suppress metastatic dissemination in vivo without inhibiting primary tumor growth when transfected into metastatic cell lines and injected into experimental animals. Their decreased expression in a subset of human tumor cohorts is associated with a high metastatic potential, thus confirming the data obtained in experimental models. Most of these genes affect key signal transduction pathways, including mitogen-activated protein kinases, Rho-GTPases and G-protein-coupled receptors. These signaling categories control cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions, which are important in monitoring adhesion, invasion and migration properties of metastatic tumor cells. Reduced expression of metastasis suppressor genes is most often due to epigenetic mechanisms, suggesting that their re-expression could constitute a new anti-metastatic therapy. In this paper, we review the literature on metastasis suppressor genes, with a particular focus on NM23. 相似文献

Epstein-Barr virus nuclear protein EBNA-3C interacts with the human metastatic suppressor Nm23-H1: a molecular link to cancer metastasis 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is an oncogenic virus associated with a number of human malignancies including Burkitt lymphoma, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, lymphoproliferative disease and, though still debated, breast carcinoma. A subset of latent EBV antigens is required for mediating immortalization of primary B-lymphocytes. Here we demonstrate that the carboxy-terminal region of the essential latent antigen, EBNA-3C, interacts specifically with the human metastatic suppressor protein Nm23-H1. Moreover, EBNA-3C reverses the ability of Nm23-H1 to suppress the migration of Burkitt lymphoma cells and breast carcinoma cells. We propose that EBNA-3C contributes to EBV-associated human cancers by targeting and altering the role of the metastasis suppressor Nm23-H1. 相似文献

The Bcl-2 family members are evolutionally conserved and crucial regulators of apoptosis. Diva (Boo), an ortholog of Bcl2L10 or Bcl-B, is a member of the Bcl-2 family that has contradictory functions in apoptosis. To understand the signaling mechanisms of Diva, we searched for proteins that interact with Diva using the yeast two-hybrid system. We identified a nucleoside diphosphate kinase isoform, NM23-H2. Here, we show that Diva bound to NM23-H2 in cells in which the transmembrane domain of Diva was required, and both proteins were colocalized in cytoplasm. Of interest, Diva protein level was significantly down-regulated by NM23-H2 as knock down of NM23-H2 restored Diva expression. Overexpression of NM23-H2 induced apoptosis, and the depletion of NM23-H2 led to the increase of Diva's apoptotic activity. Thus, these results indicate the existence of a previously undiscovered mechanism by which NM23-H2 involves in the regulation of Diva-mediated apoptosis. 相似文献

NM23-H1 (also known as NME1) was the first identified metastasis suppressor, which displays a nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDPK) and histidine protein kinase activity. NDPKs are linked to many processes, such as cell migration, proliferation, differentiation, but the exact mechanism whereby NM23-H1 inhibits the metastatic potential of cancer cells remains elusive. However, some recent data suggest that NM23-H1 may exert its anti-metastatic effect by blocking Ras/ERK signaling. In mammalian cell lines NDPK-mediated attenuation of Ras/ERK signaling occurs through phosphorylation (thus inactivation) of KSR (kinase suppressor of Ras) scaffolds. In this review I summarize our knowledge about KSR’s function and its regulation in mammals and in C. elegans. Genetic studies in the nematode contributed substantially to our understanding of the function and regulation of the Ras pathway (i.e. KSR’s discovery is also linked to the nematode). Components of the RTK/Ras/ERK pathway seem to be highly conserved between mammals and worms. NDK-1, the worm homolog of NM23-H1 affects Ras/MAPK signaling at the level of KSRs, and a functional interaction between NDK-1/NDPK and KSRs was first demonstrated in the worm in vivo. However, NDK-1 is a factor, which is necessary for proper MAPK activation, thus it activates rather than suppresses Ras/MAPK signaling in the worm. The contradiction between results in mammalian cell lines and in the worm regarding NDPKs’ effect exerted on the outcome of Ras signaling might be resolved, if we better understand the function, structure and regulation of KSR scaffolds. 相似文献

Fine needle aspirates of 5 primary hepatocellular carcinomas and 24 carcinomas metastatic to the liver were studied using vimentin and endothelial cell-specific monoclonal antibodies. Numerous endothelial cells dispersed and in bundles overlying clumps of tumor cells were positively stained by both antibodies in smears of primary hepatocellular carcinomas while such cells were rare or absent in metastatic carcinomas, with the exception of clear cell carcinoma of the kidney. It is concluded that endothelial cells, if present in large numbers in fine needle aspirates of a hepatic carcinoma and arranged in bundles that envelope the clumps of tumor cells, can (1) suggest the presence of a primary hepatocarcinoma and (2) narrow the differential diagnosis with the most common metastatic cancers to renal cell carcinoma. 相似文献

NM23-H1 is a member of the NM23/NDP kinase gene family and a putative metastasis suppressor. Previously, a screen for NM23-H1-interacting proteins that could potentially modulate its activity identified serine-threonine kinase receptor-associated protein (STRAP), a transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta receptor-interacting protein. Through the use of cysteine to serine amino acid substitution mutants of NM23-H1 (C4S, C109S, and C145S) and STRAP (C152S, C270S, and C152S/C270S), we demonstrated that the association between these two proteins is dependent on Cys(145) of NM23-H1 and Cys(152) and Cys(270) of STRAP but did not appear to involve Cys(4) and Cys(109) of NM23-H1, suggesting that a disulfide linkage involving Cys(145) of NM23-H1 and Cys(152) or Cys(270) of STRAP mediates complex formation. The interaction was dependent on the presence of dithiothreitol or beta-mercaptoethanol but not H(2)O(2). Ectopic expression of wild-type NM23-H1, but not NM23-H1(C145S), negatively regulated TGF-beta signaling in a dose-dependent manner, enhanced stable association between the TGF-beta receptor and Smad7, and prevented nuclear translocation of Smad3. Similarly, wild-type NM23-H1 inhibited TGF-beta-induced apoptosis and growth inhibition, whereas NM23-H1(C145S) had no effect. Knockdown of NM23-H1 by small interfering RNA stimulated TGF-beta signaling. Coexpression of wild-type STRAP, but not STRAP(C152S/C270S), significantly stimulated NM23-H1-induced growth of HaCaT cells. These results suggest that the direct interaction of NM23-H1 and STRAP is important for the regulation of TGF-beta-dependent biological activity as well as NM23-H1 activity. 相似文献

To better understand the mechanism underlying the hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) metastasis and to search potential markers for HCC prognosis, differential proteomic analysis on two well-established HCC cell strains with high and low metastatic potentials, MHCC97-H and MHCC97-L, was conducted using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis followed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Cytokeratin 19 (CK19) was identified and found to be overexpressed in MHCC97-H as compared with MHCC97-L. This result was further confirmed by two-dimensional Western blot analysis and immunofluorescence assay. Furthermore, one-dimensional Western blot analysis showed consistently increased CK19 expression in progressively more metastatic cells. Immunohistochemical study on 102 human HCC specimens revealed that more patients in the CK19-positive group had overt intrahepatic metastases (satellite nodules, p < 0.05; vascular tumor emboli, p < 0.001; tumor node metastatis staging, p < 0.001). CK19 fragment CYFRA 21-1 levels measured in sera from nude mice model of human HCC metastasis with radioimmunoassay increased in parallel with tumor progression and rose remarkably when pulmonary metastases occurred. The results demonstrated that overexpression of CK19 in HCC cells is related to metastatic behavior. Serum CK19 level might reflect the pathological progression in some HCC and may be a useful marker for predicting tumor metastasis and a therapeutic target for the treatment of HCC patients with metastases. 相似文献
