Abstract | Background: Pro-tumorigenic actions of prostaglandin E receptors (EP1-EP4) have been shown in
breast cancer and other solid tumors. Evidence suggest that EP2 receptor contributed to breast cancer
progression and metastasis through different signaling pathways. This study aims to dissect the
regulatory role of EP2 receptor in breast cancer metastasis.
Methods: A stable EP2-overexpressing cells were developed to study the tumor growth and metastasis
in human xenograft breast cancer model. Correlation analysis and survival analysis were used to
evaluate the relationship between EP2 and PAX2, and the correlation with clinical outcome of the
patients respectively. In-silico prediction tool and luciferase reporting assay were used to identify the
putative target of EP2.
Result: Higher expression of EP2 was seen in triple-negative breast cancer than other subtypes, and
were associated with poor prognosis. Silencing of EP2 reduced tumorsphere generating ability and
ABCG2 expression. In human xenograft breast cancer model, EP2-overexpressing cells promoted the
growth of xenograft tumors and had more metastatic nodules. Various EMT-related gene expressions
were altered in metastatic tumors of the xenografts. Moreover, PAX2 has been identified as the putative
downstream target of EP2 by luciferase reporting assay. PAX2 expression significantly upregulated in
tumor tissues and had a positive correlation between EP2 and PAX2 expression in paired primary
tissues. Importantly, knockdown of PAX2 by RNA interference reduced cell proliferation and
migration.
Conclusions: This study revealed a novel EP2-driven signaling cascade to promote cancer growth and
metastasis through regulation of PAX2. Targeting EP2/PAX2 axis may offer a new treatment options for
advanced breast cancer.
