Nuclear import of PTPN18 inhibits breast cancer metastasis mediated by MVP and importin β2
Abstract Distant metastasis is the primary cause of breast cancer-associated death. The existing information, such as the precise molecular mechanisms and effective therapeutic strategies targeting metastasis, is insufficient to combat breast cancer. This study demonstrates that the protein tyrosine...

description | Abstract Distant metastasis is the primary cause of breast cancer-associated death. The existing information, such as the precise molecular mechanisms and effective therapeutic strategies targeting metastasis, is insufficient to combat breast cancer. This study demonstrates that the protein tyrosine phosphatase PTPN18 is downregulated in metastatic breast cancer tissues and is associated with better metastasis-free survival. Ectopic expression of PTPN18 inhibits breast cancer cell metastasis. PTPN18 is translocated from the cytoplasm to the nucleus by MVP and importin β2 in breast cancer. Then, nuclear PTPN18 dephosphorylates ETS1 and promotes its degradation. Moreover, nuclear PTPN18 but not cytoplasmic PTPN18 suppresses transforming growth factor-β signaling and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition by targeting ETS1. Our data highlight PTPN18 as a suppressor of breast cancer metastasis and provide an effective antimetastatic therapeutic strategy. |
