- Abstract
- B1 integrins play an important role in regulating cell
proliferation and survival. Using small interfering RNA or an
inhibitory antibody to B1, we show here that, in vivo, B1
integrins are essential for prostate cancer growth. Among the
five known B1 integrin cytoplasmic variants, two have been
shown to differentially affect prostate cell functions. The B1A
variant promotes normal and cancer cell proliferation,
whereas the B1C variant, which is down-regulated in prostate
cancer, inhibits tumor growth and appears to have a dominant
effect on B1A. To investigate the mechanism by which B1C
inhibits the tumorigenic potential of B1A, we analyzed changes
in gene expression in cells transfected with either B1C or B1A.
The results show that B1C expression increases the levels of
an extracellular matrix protein, thrombospondin 1 (TSP1),
an angiogenesis inhibitor. TSP1 protein levels are increased
upon B1C expression in prostate cancer cells as well as in
B1-null GD25 cells. We show that TSP1 does not affect
proliferation, apoptosis, or anchorage-independent growth
of prostate cancer cells. In contrast, the newly synthesized
TSP1, secreted by prostate cancer cells expressing
B1C, prevents proliferation of endothelial cells. In conclusion,
our novel findings indicate that expression of the B1C integrin
variant in prostate glands prevents cancer progression by
up-regulation of TSP1 levels and inhibition of angiogenesis (literal)
