c-Src is a membrane-associated tyrosine kinase that has key roles in the signaling transduction that controls cell growth, adhesion, and migration. In the early stage of carcinogenesis, c-Src is activated under the plasma membrane and transduces oncogenic signals. Here we show that c-Src localized to the endosomal membrane has unique functions in c-Src-transformed cells. Our results indicate that activated c-Src in the endosomal membrane promoted the secretion of exosomes, in which c-Src was encapsulated. In addition, the ESCRT-interacting molecule, Alix was identified as a c-Src-interacting protein in exosomes. We revealed that the interaction between the SH3 domain of c-Src and the prolinerich region of Alix activates ESCRT-mediated intra-luminal vesicle (ILV) formation, resulting in the upregulation of exosome secretion in c-Src-transformed cells. We observed also a correlation between malignant phenotypes and Alix-dependent aberrant exosome secretion in Src-upregulated cancer cells. Collectively, our findings provide a unique mechanism for the upregulation of exosomes in cancer cells, as well as new insights into the significance of exosome secretion in cancer progression.
