Zeppo1 is a novel metastasis promoter that represses E-cadherin expression and regulates p120-catenin isoform expression and localization.

Abstract:

:Amplification of 8p11-12 in human breast cancers is associated with increased proliferation and tumor grade and reduced metastasis-free patient survival. We identified Zeppo1 (zinc finger elbow-related proline domain protein 1) (FLJ14299/ZNF703) within this amplicon as a regulator of cell adhesion, migration, and proliferation in mammary epithelial cells. Overexpression of Zeppo1 reduces cell-cell adhesion and stimulates migration and proliferation. Knockdown of Zeppo1 induces adhesion and lumen formation. Zeppo1 regulates transcription, complexing with Groucho and repressing E-cadherin expression and Wnt and TGFβ reporter expression. Zeppo1 promotes expression of metastasis-associated p120-catenin isoform 1 and alters p120-catenin localization upon cell contact with the extracellular matrix. Significantly, Zeppo1 overexpression in a mouse breast cancer model increases lung metastases, while reducing Zeppo1 expression reduces both tumor size and the number of lung metastases. These results indicate that Zeppo1 is a key regulator of breast cancer progression.

  • Skin epidermis lacking the c-Myc gene is resistant to Ras-driven tumorigenesis but can reacquire sensitivity upon additional loss of the p21Cip1 gene.

    abstract::The target gene(s) required for Myc-mediated tumorigenesis are still elusive. Here we show that while endogenous c-Myc is surprisingly dispensable for skin homeostasis and TPA-induced hyperplasia, c-Myc-deficient epidermis is resistant to Ras-mediated DMBA/TPAinduced tumorigenesis. This is mechanistically linked to p2...
