A phospholipase D and protein kinase C inhibitor blocks the spreading of murine mammary adenocarcinoma cells altering f-actin and β1-integrin point contact distribution

Abstract: Spreading is a critical process involved in motility and growth of tumor cells during the metastatic cascade. Focal adhesion kinase, src-proteins and PKC have been reported to participate in the regulation of cytoskeleton organization in both normal and transformed cells during spreading. The role of other signaling enzymes such as PLD and PAP has not been studied during spreading in tumor cells. We now show that the spreading of murine mammary adenocarcinoma LM3 cells was significantly reduced by n-butanol, a… Show more

“…PLD activity also regulates mTOR, a serine/ threonine kinase responsible for triggering cell survival pathways 39,40 . In addition to participating in cell survival pathways, PLD is thought to contribute to cancer metastasis via multiple mechanisms, including cytoskeletal rearrangement and cell migration 31 . Recent reports suggest PLD may also contribute to metastasis through the induction of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) secretion and extracellular matrix degradation 4145 .…”

“…It will be beneficial for a normal cell to have a controlling mechanism to shut down or slow down the production of PA, a pleiotropic second messenger with potentially harmful effects to the cell if unchecked. We know that inhibition of PLD-derived PA production inhibits migration of adenocarcinoma cells (1,8). In this line of reasoning, we present here for the first time three phosphorylation-incapable mutants that can be an index of a new PLD2 regulatory mechanism.…”

“…A pivotal role in cell motility correlated to tumour invasion is played by cytoskeleton rearrangement, a physiologically important phenomenon that can be dysregulated provoking the activation and spreading of metastasis [160]. In this regard, PLD has been shown to induce reorganization of actin cytoskeleton [161,162] and cell motility [161]. Also Rho family GTPases, which directly activate PLD1 [163], have been demonstrated to modulate cell motility, thus suggesting a role for GTPases and PLD1 itself in the spread of metastasis [117].…”
