        Guggulsterone induces heme oxygenase-1 expression through activation of Nrf2 in human mammary epithelial cells: PTEN as a putative target.

        Almazari, Inas,Park, Jong-Min,Park, Sin-Aye,Suh, Jin-Young,Na, Hye-Kyung,Cha, Young-Nam,Surh, Young-Joon IRL Press] ; Oxford University Press 2012 Carcinogenesis Vol.33 No.2

        <P>Guggulsterone (GS) [4,17(20)-pregnadiene-3,16-dione] is a phytosterol found in the gum resin of the Commiphora mukul. GS exists naturally in two stereoisomers: E-GS (cis-GS) and Z-GS (trans-GS). In this study, the effects of both isomers on expression of the cytoprotective enzyme heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) were evaluated in human mammary epithelial (MCF10A) cells. NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is considered a master regulator in activating antioxidant response element (ARE)-driven expression of HO-1 and many other antioxidant/cytoprotective proteins. cis-GS upregulated the transcription and protein expression of HO-1 to a greater extent than did trans-GS. cis-GS treatment enhanced nuclear translocation and ARE-binding activity of Nrf2. MCF10A cells transfected with an ARE luciferase construct exhibited significantly elevated Nrf2 transcriptional activity upon cis-GS treatment compared with cells transfected with the control vector. In addition, silencing of the Nrf2 gene abrogated cis-GS-induced expression of HO-1. Incubation of MCF10A cells with cis-GS increased phosphorylation of Akt. The pharmacological inhibition of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), an upstream kinase responsible for Akt phosphorylation, abrogated cis-GS-induced Nrf2 nuclear translocation. Pretreatment with the thiol-reducing agents attenuated Akt phosphorylation, Nrf2 activation and HO-1 expression, suggesting that cis-GS may cause thiol modification of an upstream signaling modulator. Phosphatase and Tensin Homologue Deleted on Chromosome 10 (PTEN) is a negative regulator of the PI3K-Akt axis. The mutation in cysteine 124 present in the catalytic domain of PTEN abolished cis-GS-induced HO-1 expression as well as Akt phosphorylation. Whether this cysteine is a 'bona fide' target of cis-GS in its activation of Nrf2 needs additional investigation.</P>
