Hedgehog ligand and receptor cooperatively regulate EGFR stability and activity in non-small cell lung cancer
Purpose
The hyperactivation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) plays a crucial role in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Hedgehog (Hh) signaling has been implicated in the tumorigenesis and progression of various cancers, however, its function in NSCLC cells remains controversial. Herein, we present a novel finding that challenges the current understanding of Hh signaling in tumor growth.
Methods
Expression of Hh ligands and receptor were assessed using TCGA datasets, immunoblotting and immunohistochemical. Biological function of Hh ligands and receptor in NSCLC were tested using colony formation, cell count kit-8 (CCK-8) and xenograft assays. Biochemical effect of Hh ligands and receptor on regulating EGFR stability and activity were checked via immunoblotting.
Results
Expression of Hh ligands and receptor was suppressed in NSCLC tissues, and the lower expression levels of these genes were associated with poor prognosis. Ptch1 binds to EGFR and facilitates its poly-ubiquitylation and degradation independent of downstream transcriptional signaling. Moreover, Hh ligands cooperate with Ptch1 to regulate the protein stability and activity of EGFR. This unique mechanism leads to a suppressive effect on NSCLC tumor growth.
Conclusion
Non-canonical Hh signaling pathway, involving cooperation between Hh ligands and their receptor Ptch1, facilitates the degradation of EGFR and attenuates its activity in NSCLC. These findings provide novel insights into the regulation of EGFR protein stability and activity, offer new diagnostic indicators for molecular typing of NSCLC and identify potential targets for targeted therapy of this challenging disease.

期刊介绍:
The Official Journal of the International Society for Cellular Oncology
Focuses on translational research
Addresses the conversion of cell biology to clinical applications
Cellular Oncology publishes scientific contributions from various biomedical and clinical disciplines involved in basic and translational cancer research on the cell and tissue level, technical and bioinformatics developments in this area, and clinical applications. This includes a variety of fields like genome technology, micro-arrays and other high-throughput techniques, genomic instability, SNP, DNA methylation, signaling pathways, DNA organization, (sub)microscopic imaging, proteomics, bioinformatics, functional effects of genomics, drug design and development, molecular diagnostics and targeted cancer therapies, genotype-phenotype interactions.
A major goal is to translate the latest developments in these fields from the research laboratory into routine patient management. To this end Cellular Oncology forms a platform of scientific information exchange between molecular biologists and geneticists, technical developers, pathologists, (medical) oncologists and other clinicians involved in the management of cancer patients.
In vitro studies are preferentially supported by validations in tumor tissue with clinicopathological associations.
