Abstract:
:A major function of the p53 tumor suppressor is the regulation of the cell cycle and apoptosis. In addition to its well-documented functions in malignant cancer cells, p53 can also regulate cell migration and invasion, which contribute to metastasis. Growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15), a member of the TGF-β superfamily, has been shown to be a downstream target of p53 and is associated with diverse human diseases and cancer progression. In this study, we examined the potential role of GDF-15 in p53-regulated cancer cell motility. We show that overexpression of wild-type p53 in two highly invasive p53-null human cancer cell lines, SKOV3 and PC3, attenuated cell migration and the movement through Matrigel. Using wild-type p53 and DNA-binding-deficient p53 mutants, we found that the transcriptional activity of p53 is required in the induction of GDF-15 expression. Cell movement through uncoated and Matrigel-coated transwell decreased in response to treatment with recombinant GDF-15, whereas the cell proliferation was not affected by GDF-15 treatment. Moreover, the induction of GDF-15 expression and secretion by p53 and the reduction in cell movement through Matrigel were diminished by treatment with GDF-15 small interfering RNA. This study demonstrates a mechanism by which p53 attenuates cancer cell motility through GDF-15 expression. In addition, our results indicate that GDF-15 mediates the functions of p53 by autocrine/paracrine action.
