To explore the role of protein kinase D3 (PKD3) in the regulation of matrix metalloproteinases 7 (MMP-7) expression in prostate cancer cells.
PC-3 cells were either stimulated with 100 nmol/L PMA to activate PKD3 kinase activity, or transiently transfected with PKD3 siRNA, and the relative expression level of MMP-7 mRNA were analyzed by real-time PCR using 2(-delta delta Ct) method. MMP-7 mRNA levels were also analyzed and quantified in HEK293 cells with over-expression of wild-type PKD3, PKD3 knockdown (using PKD3 siRNA), or over-expression of wild-type PKD3 followed by PKD3 knockdown.
MMP-7 mRNA expression in PC3 cells was significantly decreased after PMA-induced PKD3 kinase activation. In contrast, PKD3 knockdown by siRNA transfection markedly increased MMP-7 mRNA level (P<0.01). MMP-7 mRNA level in HEK293 cells was significantly decreased by PKD3 over-expression, whereas obviously increased by PKD3 knockdown. Down-regulation of MMP-7 mRNA level in HEK293 induced by PKD3 over-expression was rescued by PKD3 knockdown.
PKD3 may contribute to the malignant progression of prostate cancer cells through negative regulation of MMP-7 expression.
探讨蛋白激酶D3(PKD3)在前列腺癌细胞中对基质金属蛋白酶7(MMP - 7)表达调控的作用。
用100 nmol/L佛波酯(PMA)刺激PC - 3细胞以激活PKD3激酶活性,或用PKD3小干扰RNA(siRNA)进行瞬时转染,采用2^(-ΔΔCt)法通过实时定量聚合酶链反应(PCR)分析MMP - 7信使核糖核酸(mRNA)的相对表达水平。在过表达野生型PKD3、敲低PKD3(使用PKD3 siRNA)或过表达野生型PKD3后再敲低PKD3的人胚肾293(HEK293)细胞中,也对MMP - 7 mRNA水平进行了分析和定量。
PMA诱导PKD3激酶激活后,PC3细胞中MMP - 7 mRNA表达显著降低。相反,通过siRNA转染敲低PKD3可显著提高MMP - 7 mRNA水平(P<0.01)。PKD3过表达使HEK293细胞中MMP - 7 mRNA水平显著降低,而敲低PKD3则使其明显升高。PKD3敲低可挽救PKD3过表达诱导的HEK293细胞中MMP - 7 mRNA水平的下调。
PKD3可能通过对MMP - 7表达的负调控促进前列腺癌细胞的恶性进展。
