Abstract

Understanding the role of neuropilin 2 (NRP2) in prostate cancer cells as well as in the bone microenvironment is pivotal in the development of an effective targeted therapy for the treatment of prostate cancer bone metastasis. We observed a significant upregulation of NRP2 in prostate cancer cells metastasized to bone. Here, we report that targeting NRP2 in cancer cells can enhance taxane-based chemotherapy with a better therapeutic outcome in bone metastasis, implicating NRP2 as a promising therapeutic target. Since, osteoclasts present in the tumor microenvironment express NRP2, we have investigated the potential effect of targeting NRP2 in osteoclasts. Our results revealed NRP2 negatively regulates osteoclast differentiation and function in the presence of prostate cancer cells that promotes mixed bone lesions. Our study further delineated the molecular mechanisms by which NRP2 regulates osteoclast function. Interestingly, depletion of NRP2 in osteoclasts in vivo showed a decrease in the overall prostate tumor burden in the bone. These results therefore indicate that targeting NRP2 in prostate cancer cells as well as in the osteoclastic compartment can be beneficial in the treatment of prostate cancer bone metastasis.

摘要

了解神经纤毛蛋白2(NRP2)在前列腺癌细胞以及骨微环境中的作用,对于开发有效的靶向治疗前列腺癌骨转移至关重要。我们观察到转移至骨的前列腺癌细胞中NRP2显著上调。在此,我们报告在癌细胞中靶向NRP2可增强基于紫杉烷的化疗,在骨转移中产生更好的治疗效果,这表明NRP2是一个有前景的治疗靶点。由于肿瘤微环境中的破骨细胞表达NRP2,我们研究了在破骨细胞中靶向NRP2的潜在作用。我们的结果显示,在促进混合性骨病变的前列腺癌细胞存在的情况下,NRP2负向调节破骨细胞的分化和功能。我们的研究进一步阐明了NRP2调节破骨细胞功能的分子机制。有趣的是,体内破骨细胞中NRP2的缺失显示骨中前列腺肿瘤的总体负担有所减轻。因此,这些结果表明在前列腺癌细胞以及破骨细胞区室中靶向NRP2可能对治疗前列腺癌骨转移有益。
