Cobalt chloride (CoCl2), an agent demonstrated to stabilize hypoxia-inducible factor-1, has been associated with various hypoxic responses, and recently, some reports have linked it to increasing tumour malignancy. In this study, we observed the alteration of cell adhesion after CoCl2 treatment and analysed the potential mechanisms responsible for such adaptations in a prostate cancer cell line PC-3 M cell. We found that CoCl2 increased the tumour cell adhesion in a dose-dependent manner, which correlated with reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. When cells were incubated with the thiol reductive agent pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC), both the ROS generation and the COCl2-induced cell adhesion were abolished. Moreover, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) was activated in COCl2-treated cells, which could be antagonized by PDTC. And when cells were pre-incubated with specific p38 MAPK inhibitor, SB203580, the cell adhesion induced by CoCl2 was diminished. Moreover, the protein kinase C could up-regulate cell adhesion through activating p38 MAPK. In conclusion, CoCl2 induced ROS generation, thereby placing cells under oxidative stress and up-regulating cell adhesion; p38 MAPK and protein kinase C could be activated in a ROS-dependent fashion, which in turn contributed to cell adhesion induced by CoCl2.
