Studies have shown that SOX2 promotes invasion in BC cells through both the SKP2-Sp1-HUR-FOXO1 and nucleolin-MMP2 axes.
SOX2, a member of the SRY-related HMG-box (SOX) family, is abnormally expressed in many tumors and associated with cancer stem cell-like properties. Previous reports have shown that SOX2 is a biomarker for cancer stem cells in human bladder cancer (BC), and our most recent study has indicated that the inhibition of SOX2 by anticancer compound ChlA-F attenuates human BC cell invasion. We now investigated the mechanisms through which SOX2 promotes the invasive ability of BC cells. Our studies revealed that SOX2 promoted SKP2 transcription and increased SKP2-accelerated Sp1 protein degradation. As Sp1 is a transcriptionally regulated gene, HUR transcription was thereby attenuated, and, in the absence of HUR, FOXO1 mRNA was degraded fast, which promoted BC cell invasion. In addition, SOX2 promoted BC invasion through the upregulation of nucleolin transcription, which resulted in increased MMP2 mRNA stability and expression. Collectively, our findings show that SOX2 promotes BC invasion through both SKP2-Sp1-HUR-FOXO1 and nucleolin-MMP2 dual axes.
