AbstractPurpose: Previously, FTY720 was found to possess potent anticancer effects on various types of cancer. In the present study, we aimed to first verify the role of Runx2 in prostate cancer progression and metastasis, and, subsequently, assessed if FTY720 could modulate Runx2 expression, thus interfering downstream events regulated by this protein. Experimental Design: First, the association between Runx2 and prostate cancer progression was assessed using localized prostate cancer specimens and mechanistic investigation of Runx2-induced cancer aggressiveness was then carried out. Subsequently, the effect of FTY720 on Runx2 expression and transcriptionala ctivity was investigated using PC-3 cells, which highly expressed Runx2 protein. Last, the involvement of Runx2 in FTY720-induced anticancer effects was evaluated by modulating Runx2 expression in various prostate cancer cell lines. Results: Runx2 nuclear expression was found to be up-regulated in prostate cancer and its expression could be used as a predictor of metastasis in prostate cancer. Furthermechanistic studies indicated that Runx2 accelerated prostate cancer aggressiveness through promotion of cadherin switching, invasion toward collagen I, and Akt activation. Subsequently, we found that FTY720 treatment down-regulated Runx2 expression and its transcriptional activity, as well as inhibited its regulated downstream events.More importantly, silencing Runx2 in PC-3 enhanced FTY720-induced anticancer effects as well as cell viability inhibition, whereas overexpressing Runx2 in 22Rv1that expressed very low endogenous Runx2 protein conferred resistance in the same events. Conclusion: This study provided a novelmec hanism for the anticancer effect of FTY720 on advanced prostate cancer, thus highlighting the therapeutic potential of this drug in treating this disease. © 2009 American Association for Cancer Research.
