Abstract

TRPV4 belongs to the 'Transient Receptor Potential' (TRP) superfamily. It has been identified to profoundly affect a variety of physiological processes, including nociception, heat sensation and inflammation. Unlike other TRP superfamily channels, its role in cancers are unknown until recently when we reported TRPV4 to be required for cancer cell softness that may promote breast cancer cell extravasation and metastasis. Here, we elucidated the molecular mechanisms mediated by TRPV4 in the metastatic breast cancer cells. TRPV4-mediated signaling was demonstrated to involve Ca(2+)-dependent activation of AKT and downregulation of E-cadherin expression, which was abolished upon TRPV4 silencing. Functionally, TRPV4-enhanced breast caner cell transendothelial migration requires AKT activity while a combination of transcriptional and post-translational regulation contributed to the TRPV4-mediated E-cadherin downregulation. Finally, mass spectrometry analysis revealed that TRPV4 is required for the expression of a network of secreted proteins involved in extracellular matrix remodeling. In conclusion, TRPV4 may regulate breast cancer metastasis by regulating cell softness through the Ca(2+)-dependent AKT-E-cadherin signaling axis and ...Continue Reading

Cadherins and Catenins

Cadherins (named for "calcium-dependent adhesion") are a type of cell adhesion molecule (CAM) that is important in the formation of adherens junctions to bind cells with each other. Catenins are a family of proteins found in complexes with cadherin cell adhesion molecules of animal cells: alpha-catenin can bind to β-catenin and can also bind actin. β-catenin binds the cytoplasmic domain of some cadherins.
