Flotillin-1 (Flot-1) has been shown to regulate cancer progression, but the regulatory role of post-translational modifications Flot-1 on cancers remains elusive. Herein, we show that up-regulated E2 conjugating enzyme UBC9 sumoylates at Lys-51 and Lys-195 with small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO)-2/3 modification in metastatic prostate cancer. Mitogen induced sumoylation nuclear translocation Flot-1. The nuclear-targeted physically interacted Snail, inhibited Snail degradation through...

Here, we explored flotillin-1-mediated regulation of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) signaling. Flotillin-1-deficient cells exhibited a reduction in the activation IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R), ERK1/2 and Akt pathways, transcriptional Elk-1 proliferation response to were reduced these cells. We found that IGF-1-independent flotillin-1 palmitoylation at Cys34 endoplasmic reticulum (ER) was required for ER exit plasma membrane localization IGF-1R. IGF-1-dependent depalmitoylation...

We investigated whether altering caveolin-2 (cav-2) expression affects the proliferation of cancer cells. Cav-2 was not detected in HepG2, SH-SY5Y and LN-CaP cells, loss cav-2 restored by 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine treatment. In contrast, C6, HeLa, A549, MCF7 PC3M cells expressed cav-2. Effects re-expression exogenous siRNA-mediated down-regulation endogenous on were examined MTT assay, colony formation assay flow cytometric analysis. transfection HepG2 hepatocellular carcinoma knockdown C6...

Insulin controls transcription to sustain its physiologic effects for the organism adapt environmental changes added genetic predisposition. Nevertheless, insulin-induced transcriptional regulation by epigenetic factors and in defined nuclear territory remains elusive. Here we show that inner membrane (INM)-integrated caveolin-2 (Cav-2) regulates insulin-response activation of Egr-1 JunB genes at periphery. INM-targeted pY19-Cav-2 response insulin associates specifically with A-type lamin,...

Abstract Here, we identify that Caveolin‐2 (Cav‐2), an integral membrane protein, controls adipocyte hypertrophy in association with nuclear lamina. In the stage of adipogenesis, pY19‐Cav‐2 lamin A/C facilitated disengagement CCAAT/enhancer‐binding protein α (C/EBPα) and peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor γ (PPARγ) from repressed Cav‐2 promoter at periphery for epigenetic activation , thereby promoted C/EBPα PPARγ‐induced hypertrophy. Stable expression was required retained by...

Herein, we report that insulin-activated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) is translocated to the nuclear envelope by caveolin-2 (cav-2) and associates with lamin A/C in inner membrane response insulin. We identified Ser154–Val155–Ser156 domain on C-terminal of cav-2 essential for insulin-induced phosphorylation targeting ERK cav-2.

Here, we have identified a retrograde transport pathway of caveolin-2 (cav-2) for its regulatory function in the nucleus. Confocal microscopy analysis, photoactivation experiments and subcellular fractionation revealed that cav-2 localized Golgi was transported to inner nuclear membrane (INM) response insulin. Exogenous caveolin-1 (cav-1) P132L-cav-1 expression did not affect localization insulin-induced INM targeting cav-2. Cav-2(DKV) mutant endoplasmic reticulum (ER) unable translocate The...
