Stromal-epithelial interactions in the prostate gland are dependent on androgen regulation of prostate stromal cells, yet little is known about androgen action in these cell types. Recent reports have demonstrated that androgen-regulated gene transcription can be stimulated or inhibited by certain growth factors, indicating crosstalk mechanisms. To address potential cross-talk in signaling pathways between androgen and transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF beta 1) in prostate stromal cells, the PS-1 prostate smooth muscle cell line was examined. In the presence of physiological concentrations of androgen, PS-1 cell proliferation was stimulated, and androgen receptor (AR) exhibited a nuclear localization pattern. The addition of TGF beta 1 (25 pM) was capable of blocking androgen-induced proliferation, but had no direct effect in cultures without androgen. Immunocytochemistry to localize AR subcellular distribution showed that TGF beta 1 (5-100 par) altered the distribution of AR from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Other growth factors, including fibroblast growth factor-2, epidermal growth factor, and TGF beta 2 had no effect on AR distribution. The TGF beta 1-induced nuclear to cytoplasmic change in receptor localization was rapid (initiated within 30 min), was neutralized by TGF beta 1 antibodies, did not require new protein synthesis, and was complete by 6 h. Removal of TGF beta 1 from the culture medium resulted in a rapid redistribution of AR to the nucleus, indicating reversible mechanisms. Northern analysis of the ddp17 marker transcript for androgen action in PS-1 cells showed that androgen-stimulated ddp17 expression was inhibited in the presence of TGF beta 1 (25 pM). TGF beta 1 induced a similar nuclear to cytoplasmic distribution of AR in primary cultures of rat prostate stromal cells. TGF beta 1, however, had no effect on AR distribution in either the LNCaP prostatic carcinoma cell line or the DDT1MF-8 leiomyosacroma cell line. Specific cross-talk between TGF beta 1 and AR signaling pathways in prostate stromal cells may play a significant role in prostate development and stromal cell response in carcinoma progression.
