Abstract:
:Phosphorylation/dephosphorylation of intracellular proteins are important steps in the regulation of cell growth. Okadaic acid, an inhibitor of the serine/threonine protein phosphatases 1 and 2A, is a potent tumor promoter. This effect may be through the inhibition of dephosphorylation (termed "hyperphosphorylation") and subsequent inactivation of tumor-suppressor proteins. We examined whether okadaic acid regulates growth of human pancreatic cancer cells (MIA PaCa-2 and Panc-1) or alters the phosphorylation of the retinoblastoma tumor-suppressor protein. Growth studies, nuclear labeling analyses, and Western blotting for retinoblastoma protein were performed. Okadaic acid stimulated cell growth and induced hyperphosphorylation of the retinoblastoma protein. The growth-stimulatory effect of okadaic acid on these human pancreatic cancer cells may be mediated by inactivation of the growth suppressive effect of the retinoblastoma protein by hyperphosphorylation. These studies suggest that the growth of these human pancreatic cancer cells is still regulated by tumor-suppressor proteins.
