Cholesterol is the major component of lipid rafts. Squalene synthase (SQS) is a cholesterol biosynthase that functions in cholesterol biosynthesis, modulates the formation of lipids rafts and promotes lung cancer metastasis. In this study, we investigated the lipid raft-associated pathway of SQS in lung cancer. Gene expression microarray data revealed the upregulation of secreted phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1; also known as osteopontin, OPN) in CL1-0/SQS-overexpressing cells. Knockdown of OPN in SQS-overexpressing cells inhibits their migration and invasion, whereas an OPN treatment rescues the migration and invasion of SQS knockdown cells. High OPN expression is associated with lymph node status, advanced stage and poor prognosis in patients with lung cancer. Moreover, patients with high SQS expression and high OPN expression show poor survival compared with patients with low SQS expression and low OPN expression. SQS induces the phosphorylation of Src and ERK1/2 via OPN, resulting in increased expression of MMP1 and subsequent metastasis of lung cancer cells. Based on our findings, SQS expression increases the expression of OPN and phosphorylation of Src through cholesterol synthesis to modulate the formation of lipid rafts. SQS may represent a therapeutic strategy for lung cancer.

角鲨烯合酶通过骨桥蛋白/ERK途径促进肺癌细胞的侵袭。

胆固醇是脂筏的主要成分。角鲨烯合酶 (SQS) 是一种胆固醇生物合成酶,在胆固醇生物合成中起作用,调节脂筏的形成并促进肺癌转移。在这项研究中,我们研究了 SQS 在肺癌中的脂筏相关通路。基因表达微阵列数据揭示了 CL1-0/SQS 过表达细胞中分泌的磷蛋白 1(SPP1;也称为骨桥蛋白,OPN)的上调。在 SQS 过表达细胞中敲除 OPN 会抑制它们的迁移和侵袭,而 OPN 治疗可以挽救 SQS 敲低细胞的迁移和侵袭。OPN 高表达与肺癌患者的淋巴结状态、晚期和预后不良有关。而且,与低 SQS 表达和低 OPN 表达的患者相比,高 SQS 表达和高 OPN 表达的患者生存率较差。SQS 通过 OPN 诱导 Src 和 ERK1/2 的磷酸化,导致 MMP1 的表达增加和随后的肺癌细胞转移。根据我们的发现,SQS 表达通过胆固醇合成增加 OPN 的表达和 Src 的磷酸化,以调节脂筏的形成。SQS 可能代表肺癌的治疗策略。SQS 表达通过胆固醇合成增加 OPN 的表达和 Src 的磷酸化,从而调节脂筏的形成。SQS 可能代表肺癌的治疗策略。SQS 表达通过胆固醇合成增加 OPN 的表达和 Src 的磷酸化,从而调节脂筏的形成。SQS 可能代表肺癌的治疗策略。
