Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To identify the molecules involved in epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in tumors post acquired platinum resistance (PR), we examined the changes in gene expression before and after platinum treatment. Four urothelial carcinoma cell lines, T24, 5637, and their PR sublines of T24PR and 5637PR, were assessed by microarray, and FBXO32 was newly identified as a negative regulator of EMT. In vitro study showed an intimate relationship between FBXO32 expression and EMT, demonstrating that FBXO32 knockdown resulted in the EMT acquisition. In contract, FBXO32 overexpression suppressed EMT. The association between FBXO32 expression and EMT was further validated using human specimens. CGH array analysis demonstrated loss of heterozygosity at 8q24.13 in T24PR cells, which harbors FBXO32. In 5637PR cells, decreased nuclear FOXO1/3a expression seemed to affect FBXO32 dysregulation. These results suggest the association between EMT and ubiquitin-proteasome regulation when tumors develop PR.
