A Ca 2+ -ATPase Regulates E-cadherin Biogenesis and Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition in Breast Cancer Cells.
Molecular Cancer Research : MCR 2019 August
Progression of benign tumors to invasive, metastatic cancer is accompanied by the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), characterized by loss of the cell-adhesion protein E-cadherin. Although silencing mutations and transcriptional repression of the E-cadherin gene have been widely studied, not much is known about posttranslational regulation of E-cadherin in tumors. We show that E-cadherin is tightly coexpressed with the secretory pathway Ca2+ -ATPase isoform 2, SPCA2 ( ATP2C2 ), in breast tumors. Loss of SPCA2 impairs surface expression of E-cadherin and elicits mesenchymal gene expression through disruption of cell adhesion in tumorspheres and downstream Hippo-YAP signaling. Conversely, ectopic expression of SPCA2 in triple-negative breast cancer elevates baseline Ca2+ and YAP phosphorylation, enhances posttranslational expression of E-cadherin, and suppresses mesenchymal gene expression. Thus, loss of SPCA2 phenocopies loss of E-cadherin in the Hippo signaling pathway and EMT-MET transitions, consistent with a functional role for SPCA2 in E-cadherin biogenesis. Furthermore, we show that SPCA2 suppresses invasive phenotypes, including cell migration in vitro and tumor metastasis in vivo . Based on these findings, we propose that SPCA2 functions as a key regulator of EMT and may be a potential therapeutic target for treatment of metastatic cancer. IMPLICATIONS: Posttranslational control of E-cadherin and the Hippo pathway by calcium signaling regulates EMT in breast cancer cells.
