Tumor suppressor p53 regulates heparanase gene expression

Abstract: Mammalian heparanase degrades heparan sulfate, the most prominent polysaccharide of the extracellular matrix. Causal involvement of heparanase in tumor progression is well documented. Little is known, however, about mechanisms that regulate heparanase gene expression. Mutational inactivation of tumor suppressor p53 is the most frequent genetic alteration in human tumors. p53 is a transcription factor that regulates a wide variety of cellular promoters. In this study, we demonstrate that wild-type (wt) p53 bind… Show more

“…Of note, in mouse embryonic fibroblasts and cancer cells, others found that p53 binds to the heparanase promoter and inhibits its activity. 75 Moreover, we found aging and p53 overexpression to be associated with increased expression of PTEN, a negative regulator of protein kinase B (Akt), also induced by Egr1. Previous studies have established a role of the PI3K/Akt pathway in the suppression of TF in endothelial cells, 76,77 and p53-dependent modulation of PTEN could underlie the observed changes in endothelial TF expression and possibly also the absence of venous thrombosis in aged Endp53-KO mice.…”

“…46 -49 p53 modulates expression of protein regulators of extracellular heparin sulfate, such as heparanase and extracellular heparin sulfate 6-O-endosulfatases. 50 Transgenic mice overexpressing WT p53 in the kidney exhibit differentiation defects in the UB. 51 A consequence of abnormal signaling to the MM by the UB is increased mesenchymal apoptosis and decreased mesenchyme to epithelial transition, resulting in hypoplastic kidneys.…”

“…Elastase (Levidiotis et al 2001), tissue plasminogen activator (Vlodavsky et al 1990), thrombin (Benezra et al 1992), high levels of glucose in serum (Levidiotis et al 2001;Maxhimer et al 2005), reninangiotensin-aldosteron activity with angiotensin II (Kramer et al 2006) and aldosteron (Kramer et al 2006), freeradicals (Kramer et al 2006), proinflammatory cytokines, fatty acids, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-a, interleukin-1b (Chen et al 2004), and mutant p53 variant (Baraz et al 2006) support the expression and/or activity of heparanase. Heparanase promoter and a 25 mmol/l glucose solution together induce luciferase reporter gene activity (the luciferase gene is connected with the heparanase promoter) (Maxhimer et al 2005).…”
