Recently, β-arrestin1 has been indicated as a prostate cancer promoter through promoting cell proliferation and epithelial to mesenchymal transition, but its underlying mechanism remains unclear. Here, our data revealed that β-arrestin1 could promote cell growth through inhibiting the transcriptional activity and expression of FOXO3a in prostate cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. We found that β-arrestin1 could promote the cell and tumor growth of prostate cancer, and β-arrestin1 expression represented a negative correlation with FOXO3a expression but not FOXO1 expression in prostate cancer cell lines and tissues. In addition, forced expression of β-arrestin1 induced a significant decrease of FOXO3a expression but had no clear effect on FOXO1 expression. Mechanistically, β-arrestin1 could interact with FOXO3a and MDM2, respectively, and promote the interaction between FOXO3a and MDM2, whereas it had no obvious interaction with FOXO1. Furthermore, β-arrestin1 could inhibit the transcriptional activity of FOXO3a via Akt and ERK1/2 pathways. Together, our results revealed a novel mechanism for β-arrestin1 in the regulation of the prostate cancer procession through inhibiting FOXO3a.

Global nonprofit biological resource center (BRC) and research organization that provides biological products, technical services and educational programs to private industry, government and academic organizations. Its mission is to acquire, authenticate, preserve, develop and distribute biological materials, information, technology, intellectual property and standards for the advancement and application of scientific knowledge. The primary purpose of ATCC is to use its resources and experience as a BRC to become the world leader in standard biological reference materials management, intellectual property resource management and translational research as applied to biomaterial development, standardization and certification. ATCC characterizes cell lines, bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa, as well as develops and evaluates assays and techniques for validating research resources and preserving and distributing biological materials to the public and private sector research communities.
View all literature mentionsNon-profit plasmid repository dedicated to helping scientists around the world share high-quality plasmids. Facilitates archiving and distributing DNA-based research reagents and associated data to scientists worldwide. Repository contains over 65,000 plasmids, including special collections on CRISPR, fluorescent proteins, and ready-to-use viral preparations. There is no cost for scientists to deposit plasmids, which saves time and money associated with shipping plasmids themselves. All plasmids are fully sequenced for validation and sequencing data is openly available. We handle the appropriate Material Transfer Agreements (MTA) with institutions, facilitating open exchange and offering intellectual property and liability protection for depositing scientists. Furthermore, we curate free educational resources for the scientific community including a blog, eBooks, video protocols, and detailed molecular biology resources.
