Abstract：
:Hypoxic conditions exist within pancreatic adenocarcinoma, yet pancreatic cancer cells survive and replicate within this environment. To understand the mechanisms involved in pancreatic cancer adaptation to hypoxia, we analyzed expression of a regulator of hypoxia-induced cell death, Bcl-2/adenovirus E1B 19 kDa interacting protein 3 (BNIP3). We found that BNIP3 was down-regulated in nine of nine pancreatic adenocarcinomas compared with normal pancreas despite the up-regulation of other hypoxia-inducible genes, including glucose transporter-1 and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 3. Also, BNIP3 expression was undetectable even after hypoxia treatment in six of seven pancreatic cancer cell lines. The BNIP3 promoter, which was remarkably activated by hypoxia, is located within a CpG island. The methylation status of CpG dinucleotides within the BNIP3 promoter was analyzed after bisulfite treatment by sequencing and methylation-specific PCR. Hypermethylation of the BNIP3 promoter was observed in all BNIP3-negative pancreatic cancer cell lines and eight of 10 pancreatic adenocarcinoma samples. Treatment of BNIP3-negative pancreatic cancer cell lines with a DNA methylation inhibitor, 5-aza-2' deoxycytidine, restored hypoxia-induced BNIP3 expression. BNIP3 expression was also restored by introduction of a construct consisting of a full-length BNIP3 cDNA regulated by a cloned BNIP3 promoter. Restoration of BNIP3 expression rendered the pancreatic cancer cells notably more sensitive to hypoxia-induced cell death. In conclusion, down-regulation of BNIP3 by CpG methylation likely contributes to resistance to hypoxia-induced cell death in pancreatic cancer.
