The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a crucial event in cancer progression and embryonic development, is induced by transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta. Expression of E-cadherin, a representative epithelial marker. is repressed through transcriptional reduction by TGF-beta. Here, we show that endocytosis of cell surface E-cadherin during EMT induced by TGF-beta and during scattering induced by hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) can be blocked by inhibiting proteasome with lactacystin and MG132 in normal epithelial cells and in cancer cells. Although loss of cell surface E-cadherin following TGF-beta treatment induced translocation of P-catenin, an E-cadherin-anchoring molecule, to the nucleus, proteasome inhibition prevented this process and resulted in co-localization of beta-catenin with E-cadherin at the cell surface, leading to establishment of cell-cell adhesion. However, promotion of cell migration by TGF-beta was not significantly affected by proteasome inhibition. Proteasome-dependent events thus appear to be involved in stabilization of cell surface E-cadherin. (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
