Abstract

The retinoic acid (RA)-metabolizing enzyme CYP26A1 has been shown to efficiently enhance the oncogenic potential of breast cancer, suggesting a potential oncogenic function. We previously demonstrated that CYP26A1 confers unique cell survival properties by modulating the expression of a variety of genes and identified a number of genes that drive the cells into the oncogenic state. Accumulating evidence suggested that fascin is overexpressed in various types of cancer, primarily leading to increased cell motility. Therefore, in the present study, we examined fascin, an actin-bundling protein, using immunohistochemical and SA-β-gal staining as well as TUNEL and colony forming assays. The results of the present study showed that the expression levels of fascin increased significantly in response to CYP26A1 overexpression and, conversely, treatment with all-trans RA downregulated the expression of fascin. In addition, primary breast carcinoma samples, particularly hormone receptor-negative carcinomas and CYP26A1-overexpressing cancers, expressed elevated levels of fascin. Notably, fascin contributed to the ability of breast carcinoma cells to escape premature senescence and exhibit enhanced cell apoptotic resistance, promoting anchorage-independent growth properties. Fascin also promoted cell motility and the invasiveness of CYP26A1-expressing breast carcinoma cells. These data suggest that fascin expression is modulated by the intracellular RA status regulated by the expression of CYP26A1 and plays a significant role in the malignant behavior of CYP26A1-expressing breast carcinoma cells. CYP26A1 exerts oncogenic functions during breast carcinogenesis. Therefore, CYP26A1-mediated oncogenic characteristics may be partially responsible for the elevated expression of fascin.
