  • Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is an inducible enzyme expressed in response to a variety of cytokines. The presence of oncogenic ras has been associated with sustained induction of COX-2, which confers resistance to apoptosis. Contrary to the above notion, we found that MCF10A-ras cells treated with an anti-tumor agent, ET-18-O-$CH_3$, underwent apoptosis as revealed by proteolytic cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase, pro-caspase 3 activity, and TUNEL staining, while the same treatment caused an increased expression of COX-2 as well as the elevated production of prostaglandin E$_2$(PGE$_2$).(omitted)

  • 타목시펜과 같은 항에스트로젠은 ER 양성의 초기 유방암 환자에게 사용되고 있다. 그러나 대부분의 환자에서 이 항에스트로젠에 대한 내성 발현은 불가피하게 발생한다. BCAR3 유전자는 사람의 에스트로젠 의존성 유방암에서 tamoxifen 내성유도를 야기하는 단백질로 발견되었다. 우리들은 이전에 이 BCAR3 유전자가 세포주기 진행과 EGF와 인슐린에 의한 DNA 합성 신호전달경로를 조절한다고 보고하였다. 본 연구에서는, 비종양성 정상적인 인간유방상피세포인 MCF-12A세포에서 c-Jun 전자의 조절에 대한 BCAR3유전자의 기능적인 역할을 조사하였다. BCAR3의 일시적인 발현 또는 지속적인 발현이 c-Jun mRNA와 단백질의 발현을 증가하는 것을 발견하였다. 또한 BCAR3 발현 유전자의 미세주사에 의해 세포 증식이 증가하였다. 이 c-Jun의 발현 증가는 promoter의 활성화를 통해 일어난다. 또한 BCAR3에 의한 c-Jun 발현 유도가 억제성 Ras, Rac, Rho에 의해 억제되었다. 다음으로 EGF 성장인자에 의한 c-Jun 발현 유도에 대한 BCAR3의 영향을 단일 세포 미세주사법에 의해 조사하였다. BCAR3 항체, BCAR3의 siRNA와 같은 BCAR3의 기능을 억제할 수 있는 물질들을 세포로 미세주사하면 EGF에 의한 c-Jun의 발현을 억제하였지만, IGF-1 성장인자에 의한 c-Jun 발현은 억제하지 않았다. 이러한 결과들로부터 BCAR3는 c-Jun 단백질 발현 유도와 세포 증식에 중요한 역할을 하며, 여기에는 Ras, Rac, Rho와 같은 GTPase들이 필요하다는 것을 발견하였다.

  • The mammalian ste20-like kinase (MST) pathway is important in the regulation of apoptosis and cell cycle and emerges as a novel tumor suppressor pathway. MST-induced phosphorylation of Salvador homolog 1 (SAV1), which is a scaffold protein, has not been evaluated in detail. We performed a mass spectrometric analysis of the SAV1 protein that was co-expressed with MST2. Phosphorylation was detected at Thr-26, Ser-27, Ser-36 and Ser-269. Although single or double mutations had little effects, the mutation of all four residues in SAV1 to Ala (SAV1-4A) had inhibitory effects on the MST pathway. MST2-mediated induction of SAV1-4A protein levels, SAV1-4A interaction with MST2 and the self-dimerization of SAV1-4A were weaker compared to those of wild-type SAV1. SAV1-4A inhibited MST2- and K-RasG12V-induced cell death of MCF7 cells. These results suggest that MST-mediated phosphorylation of four residues within SAV1 may be important in the induction of cell death by the MST pathway.
