The phosphoinositide hydrolase phospholipase C delta1 inhibits epithelial-mesenchymal transition and is silenced in colorectal cancer.
Journal of Cellular Physiology 2019 January 8
In this study, we found that the phospholipase C delta1 (PLCD1) protein expression is reduced in colorectal tumor tissues compared with paired surgical margin tissues. PLCD1-promoted CpG methylation was detected in 29/64 (45%) primary colorectal tumors, but not in nontumor tissues. The PLCD1 RNA expression was also reduced in three out of six cell lines, due to PLCD1 methylation. The ectopic expression of PLCD1 resulted in inhibited proliferation and attenuated migration of colorectal tumor cells, yet promoted colorectal tumor cell apoptosis in vitro. We also observed that PLCD1 suppressed proliferation and promoted apoptosis in vivo. In addition, PLCD1 induced G1/S phase cell cycle arrest. Furthermore, we found that PLCD1 led to the downregulation of several factors downstream of β-catenin, including c-Myc and cyclin D1, which are generally known to be promoters of tumorigenesis. This downregulation was caused by an upregulation of E-cadherin in colorectal tumor cells. Our findings provide insights into the role of PLCD1 as a tumor suppressor gene in colorectal cancer (CRC), and demonstrate that it plays significant roles in proliferation, migration, invasion, cell cycle progression, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition. On the basis of these results, tumor-specific methylation of PLCD1 could be used as a novel biomarker for early detection and prognostic prediction in CRC.
