Down-regulation of CYLD expression by Snail promotes tumor progression in malignant melanoma
نویسندگان
چکیده
High malignancy and early metastasis are hallmarks of melanoma. Here, we report that the transcription factor Snail1 inhibits expression of the tumor suppressor CYLD in melanoma. As a direct consequence of CYLD repression, the protooncogene BCL-3 translocates into the nucleus and activates Cyclin D1 and N-cadherin promoters, resulting in proliferation and invasion of melanoma cells. Rescue of CYLD expression in melanoma cells reduced proliferation and invasion in vitro and tumor growth and metastasis in vivo. Analysis of a tissue microarray with primary melanomas from patients revealed an inverse correlation of Snail1 induction and loss of CYLD expression. Importantly, tumor thickness and progression-free and overall survival inversely correlated with CYLD expression. Our data suggest that Snail1-mediated suppression of CYLD plays a key role in melanoma malignancy.

suppressor CYLD. When Snail was blocked in melanoma cells, the low CYLD expression bounced back, and the cells formed smaller and less aggressive tumors when transferred into mice. This group had previously found that Snail was abnormally abundant in melanoma cells. They now link increased Snail to a common mutation (V600E) in the kinase BRAF—found in more than half of malignant melanomas in hu...

During progression of melanoma, loss of the cell-cell adhesion molecule E-cadherin contributes to uncontrolled growth and invasive behavior of transformed melanocytes. Secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine (SPARC) is a nonstructural matricellular protein that regulates cell-matrix interactions leading to alterations in cell adhesion and proliferation. Overexpression of SPARC has been ass...

CYLD lysine 63 deubiquitinase (CYLD) was originally identified as a tumor suppressor that is mutated in familial cylindromatosis. Unlike in cylindromatosis, downregulation of the deubiquitinase CYLD in melanoma, a highly aggressive tumor, is not caused by mutations in the CYLD gene, but rather by a constitutive and high expression of the snail family transcriptional repressor 1 (SNAIL1). A redu...
