摘要


Aquaporins (AQP) have been demonstrated to be dysregulated in many human cancers and is thought to be involved in pancreatic carcinogenesis and progression. However, the oncogenic roles and underlying mechanism of AQP in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remain largely unknown. In this study, by data mining of TCGA dataset and CCLE database, we identified that AQP3 is the major AQP expressed in PDAC. Then, the microRNA-874, was demonstrated to be a key regulator of AQP3 expression in PDAC cells. Genetic silencing of AQP3 expression had pronounced effects on cell proliferation and apoptosis of the PDAC cell lines BXPC3 and HPAFII. Introduction of microRNA-874 suppressed cell proliferation and promoted cell apoptosis, whereas inhibition of microRNA-874 had the opposite effect. Mechanistically, by a large-scale proteomic analysis, we revealed that AQP3 was significantly associated the activity of mTOR signaling. Moreover, modulation of AQP3 or microRNA-874 altered mTOR activity as demonstrated by the phosphorylation level of mTOR and its downstream target S6. Taken together, our data, as a proof of principle, suggest that AQP3 can promote tumor growth of pancreatic cancer cells by activating the Mtor signaling pathway and provide a potential therapeutic target in the treatment of PDAC.
