HER-2/Neu过表达在约25-30%的乳腺癌患者中发生，预示着预后不良。虽然Her2/Neu过表达主要是erbB2扩增的结果，但最近已经认识到erbB2水平也在蛋白水平上受到调节。然而，调控Her2/Neu蛋白稳定性的因素尚不清楚。脯氨酸异构酶Pin1催化特定的pSer/Thr-Pro基序的异构化，这些基序在有丝分裂信号传导中被磷酸化。我们之前报道过pin1催化的信号转导后磷酸化修饰调节c-neu下游的致癌途径。本研究的目的是检测脯氨酸异构酶Pin1在人Her2+乳腺癌中的表达，并研究Pin1是否影响Her2/Neu本身的表达。对223例人类乳腺癌患者进行了Her2和Pin1的免疫组织化学检测，其中59%的标本来自原发癌症，41%来自转移部位。利用siRNA在Her2+乳腺癌细胞系中实现了Pin1的抑制，并通过细胞活力测定、免疫印迹和免疫荧光研究了其作用。64个样本（28.7%）Her2 （IHC 3+）呈阳性，54%（122/223）的乳腺癌Pin1呈阳性。在her2阳性的癌症中，40例（62.5%）也是pin1阳性，这是基于强核或核和细胞质染色。通过RNAi抑制Pin1可显著抑制BT474、SKBR3和AU565细胞中her2阳性肿瘤细胞的生长。Pin1抑制显著增加了Her2阳性乳腺癌细胞对mTOR抑制剂雷帕霉素的敏感性，而未增加其对曲妥珠单抗的敏感性，提示Pin1可能作用于Her2信号传导。我们发现Pin1与含有泛素化erbB2的蛋白复合物相互作用，Pin1的抑制加速了erbB2的降解，这可以通过蛋白酶体抑制剂ALLnL处理来阻止。Pin1是erbB2的一种新型调节剂，可调节泛素介导的erbB2降解。在大多数her2过表达的乳腺癌中，Pin1的过表达可能有助于维持erbB2水平。单独抑制Pin1和联合抑制mTOR可抑制Her2+乳腺癌细胞的生长。
Overexpression of HER-2/Neu occurs in about 25–30% of breast cancer patients and is indicative of poor prognosis. While Her2/Neu overexpression is primarily a result of erbB2 amplification, it has recently been recognized that erbB2 levels are also regulated on the protein level. However, factors that regulate Her2/Neu protein stability are less well understood. The prolyl isomerase Pin1 catalyzes the isomerization of specific pSer/Thr-Pro motifs that have been phosphorylated in response to mitogenic signaling. We have previously reported that Pin1-catalyzed post-phosphorylational modification of signal transduction modulates the oncogenic pathways downstream from c-neu. The goal of this study was to examine the expression of prolyl isomerase Pin1 in human Her2+ breast cancer, and to study if Pin1 affects the expression of Her2/Neu itself. Immunohistochemistry for Her2 and Pin1 were performed on two hundred twenty-three human breast cancers, with 59% of the specimen from primary cancers and 41% from metastatic sites. Pin1 inhibition was achieved using siRNA in Her2+ breast cancer cell lines, and its effects were studied using cell viability assays, immunoblotting and immunofluorescence. Sixty-four samples (28.7%) stained positive for Her2 (IHC 3+), and 54% (122/223) of all breast cancers stained positive for Pin1. Of the Her2-positive cancers 40 (62.5%) were also Pin1-positive, based on strong nuclear or nuclear and cytoplasmic staining. Inhibition of Pin1 via RNAi resulted in significant suppression of Her2-positive tumor cell growth in BT474, SKBR3 and AU565 cells. Pin1 inhibition greatly increased the sensitivity of Her2-positive breast cancer cells to the mTOR inhibitor Rapamycin, while it did not increase their sensitivity to Trastuzumab, suggesting that Pin1 might act on Her2 signaling. We found that Pin1 interacted with the protein complex that contains ubiquitinated erbB2 and that Pin1 inhibition accelerated erbB2 degradation, which could be prevented by treatments with the proteasome inhibitor ALLnL. Pin1 is a novel regulator of erbB2 that modulates the ubiquitin-mediated degradation of erbB2. The overexpression of Pin1 in a majority of Her2-overexpressing breast cancer may contribute to maintain erbB2 levels. Pin1 inhibition alone and in conjunction with mTOR inhibition suppresses the growth of Her2+ breast cancer cells.
