讲座内容简介:
Oncogenic steroid receptor coactivator 3(SRC-3), also known as amplified in breast cancer-1 (AIB1), is overexpressed in multiple cancers. SRC-3 promotes cell proliferation and tumor growth by acting as a co-activator of steroid receptors and other transcription factors. SRC-3 also promotes cancer cell invasion and tumor metastasis, but the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. Our recent findings demonstrate SRC-3 and its N-terminal truncated form SRC-3∆4cooperatively promote cancer cell invasion and tumor metastasis. SRC-3∆4 functions as a signaling adaptor for EGFR and focal adhesion kinase (FAK)on the plasma membrane and mediates EGF-induced FAK activation and cancer cell migration. In the nucleus, SRC-3 coactivates PEA-3 to regulate MMP genes’ expression and promotes cancer cell invasion, which is mediated by ERK3-mediated phosphorylation of SRC-3 at S857.
