Abstract:
:Ubiquitination controls multiple cellular processes relevant to cancer pathogenesis. Using Gene Set Enrichment Analysis of an mRNA transcriptome dataset, we have identified genes encoding components of the ubiquitin system that are differentially expressed in colorectal cancers as compared to normal colonic mucosa. Among the significantly overexpressed genes was NEDD4 (neural precursor cell-expressed developmentally down-regulated 4), the prototype member of the HECT (homologous to E6AP C-terminus) E3 ubiquitin ligase family. Previous studies have shown that NEDD4 may act as an oncoprotein by inducing ubiquitination and degradation of the tumor suppressor protein PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homolog). To investigate its functional importance in colorectal cancer, HCT-15 and LoVo colon cancer cells were depleted of NEDD4 by small interfering RNA. The depletion resulted in reduced growth and altered cell morphology in both cell lines. However, NEDD4 depletion did not affect the PTEN protein level or PI3K/AKT signaling pathway activation. Moreover, ectopic expression of NEDD4 did not influence the PTEN subcellular localization or protein level. Collectively, these data demonstrate that NEDD4 is overexpressed in colorectal cancers, and suggest that NEDD4 promotes growth of colon cancer cells independently of PTEN and PI3K/AKT signaling.
