Plexin-B1 Mutation Drives Metastasis in Prostate Cancer Mouse Models

Abstract: Metastatic prostate cancer is essentially incurable and is a leading cause of cancer-related morbidity and mortality in men, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. Plexins are transmembrane receptors for semaphorins with divergent roles in many forms of cancer. We show here that prostate epithelial cell-specific expression of a mutant form of Plexin-B1 (P1597L) which was identified in metastatic deposits in prostate cancer patients, significantly increases metastasis, in particular meta… Show more

“…20,47 For example, PlexinB1 overexpression is a bad prognostic factor in ErbB2-amplified breast cancer 48 and ovarian cancer 49 while Sema3C, a ligand for PlexinB1 is overexpressed in prostate cancer. 22 PlexinB1 is mutated in prostate cancer 50 and Prostate epithelial cell-specific overexpression of a mutant form of PlexinB1 in vivo promotes metastasis 51 Conversely loss of Plexinb1 is associated with poor prognosis in melanoma 52 and estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer. 51 Together these results show that defects in B-type plexins may contribute to cancer progression by inducing chromosomal instability.…”
