Hepatocyte Growth Factor Activator Inhibitor Type 1 Regulates Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition through Membrane-Bound Serine Proteinases

Abstract: Hepatocyte growth factor activator inhibitor-1 (HAI-1), encoded by the serine protease inhibitor Kunitz type 1 (SPINT1) gene, is a membrane-associated proteinase inhibitor that potently inhibits a variety of serine proteinases, including those that are membrane bound. Although HAI-1/SPINT1 is widely expressed by epithelial cells and cancer cells, its functional role is still unclear, particularly in cancer. Here, we show that stable knockdown of HAI-1/SPINT1 in the human pancreatic cancer cell line SUIT-2 indu… Show more

“…Thus, the net balance between HGFA/matriptase and HAI-1 was shifted in favor of HGFA/matriptase in various types of carcinoma, including breast, ovarian, renal, prostate and colorectal carcinoma (18)(19)(20)38,40,43,49,50). In addition, in vitro studies have validated the finding that HAI-1 knockdown-induced enhanced migration is partially reversed by silencing of matriptase or other serine protease expression (33,34,36).…”

“…Vimentin, SIP1 and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 expression was upregulated in these cells but E-cadherin expression was downregulated. The subsequent silencing of matriptase in these HAI-1 knockdown cells resulted in reversal in the expression levels of MMP-9 accompanied by a recovery of E-cadherin expression levels (34). In another study, HAI-1 overexpression resulted in a significant increase in E-cadherin expression levels but a reduction in Vimentin, SIP1, Snail and Twist expression levels in human endometrial cancer cell lines (30).…”

“…13 Even in neoplastic cells, short hairpin RNA knockdown of HAI-1/ SPINT1 induced epithelial to mesenchymal transition in certain human epithelial cancer cell lines with enhanced metastatic colonization capability. 14,15 These lines of evidence strongly suggest that HAI-1/SPINT1 has a significant functional role in epithelial biology.…”
