Abstract:
Tumor cell migration plays key role in cancer cell dissemination and metastasis and is controlled by signaling-mediated cytoskeletal and cell-matrix adhesion remodeling. Using a phagokinetic track (PKT) assay with migratory H1299 cells, we performed a siRNA screen of almost 1,500 genes encoding kinases/phosphatases, adhesome-related and migration-related proteins, with the aim of identifying genes that determine tumor cell migration speed, and persistence. Thirty candidate genes, showing significant effect were validated in live tumor cell migration assays, and eight of those had a significant association with metastasis free survival in breast cancer patients, ITGB3BP, MAP3K8, NEK2, SHC1 and SRPK1 being most significant . Further examination indicated that the expression of SRPK1, the most interesting gene identified in this screen , was highest in basal-like breast cancer and its expression level was correlated with poor disease outcome and preferred metastasis to the lungs and brain. In two independent breast tumor metastasis models, stable shRNA-based SRPK1 knockdown suppressed metastasis to distant organs, including lung, liver and spleen and inhibited focal adhesion reorganization. We provide here a comprehensive information resource on the molecular determinants of tumor cell migration and identify SRPK1 as a potential candidate drug target associated with breast cancer metastasis.
