  • Cancerous Protein Network That Inhibits the Tumor Suppressor Function of WW Domain-Containing Oxidoreductase (WWOX) by Aberrantly Expressed Molecules
    Frontiers Media S.A., 2018
    Co-Authors: Chiemi Saigo, Yusuke Kito, Tamotsu Takeuchi
    Abstract:

    Recent findings indicate that the WW domain-containing oxidoreductase (WWOX) is a tumor suppressor protein that contains two N-terminal WW domains and a central short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase domain. WWOX protein mediates multiple signaling networks that suppress carcinogenesis through binding of its first WW domain to various cancer-associated proteins, i.e., p73, AP-2γ, and others. Although the tumor suppressor property of WWOX is inarguable, WWOX is not inactivated in the manner characteristic of the canonical Knudson Hypothesis. Impairment of both alleles of WWOX is thought to be a rare event, only occurring in a few cancer cell lines. How is the tumor suppressor function of WWOX impaired in cancer cells? Recent advances highlight that a small transmembrane protein possessing a PPxY motif, called TMEM207, and its relatives are aberrantly expressed in various cancer cells and hinder the tumor suppressor function of WWOX through inhibiting its WW domain. Here, we review the recent findings related to the pathobiological properties of TMEM207 and its relatives based on clinicopathological and experimental pathological studies

  • abstract 1982 tceb3c elongin a3 on chromosome 18 presents a putative tumor suppressor gene of small intestine neuroendocrine tumors
    Cancer Research, 2013
    Co-Authors: Katarina Edfeldt, Peyman Björklund, Tanvver Ahmad, Goran Akerstrom, Eva Tiensuu Janson, Per Hellman, Peter Stalberg, Gunnar Westin
    Abstract:

    Proceedings: AACR 104th Annual Meeting 2013; Apr 6-10, 2013; Washington, DC Small intestine neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) arise from the enterochromaffin cells and produce hormones which can cause the carcinoid syndrome. The incidence is increasing and the five-year survival rate is 60-80 %. Loss of one copy of chromosome 18 is a very frequent event in these tumors, supporting the presence of a crucial tumor suppressor gene. This study investigated whether TCEB3C, encoding Elongin A3, presents a putative tumor suppressor gene in SI-NETs. This gene is currently the only known imprinted gene on chromosome 18, requiring only one gene copy inactivation event to fulfill the Knudson Hypothesis. Elongin A3 expression in SI-NETs (n=47) was heterogeneous and negative in most cells. 5-Aza-2’-deoxycytidine induced expression of Elongin A3 in a carcinoid tumor cell line and in tumor derived primary cell cultures, but not in a control cell line. Also the general histone methyltransferase inhibitor 3-deazaneplanocin A induced TCEB3C expression in the carcinoid tumor cell line, but not in control cells suggesting further that the TCEB3C gene was epigenetically suppressed in neuroendocrine tumor cells. The TCEB3C gene encompasses an CpG island and quantitative cytosine CpG methylation analysis will be presented. Furthermore, overexpression of Elongin A3 led to a decrease in clonogenic survival of carcinoid tumor cells, but not of control cells strongly supporting a growth-regulatory role. These results support a putative tumor suppressor role of TCEB3C in neuroendocrine cells of the small intestine.
