摘要

Stem cell antigen (Sca)-1/Ly6A, a glycerophosphatidylinositol-linked surface protein, was found to be associated with murine stem cell- and progenitor cell-enriched populations, and also has been linked to the capacity of tumor-initiating cells. Despite these interesting associations, this protein's functional role in these processes remains largely unknown. To identify the mechanism underlying the protein's possible role in mammary tumorigenesis, Sca-1 expression was examined in Sca-1~+/EGFP mice during carcino-genesis. Mammary tumor cells derived from these mice readily engrafted in syngeneic mice, and tumor growth was markedly inhibited on down-regulation of Sca-1 expression. The latter effect was associated with significantly elevated expression of the TGF-p ligand growth differentiation factor-10 (GDF10), which was found to selectively activate TGF-β receptor (TβRI/ll)-dependent Smad3 phosphorylation. Overexpression of GDF10 attenuated tumor formation; conversely, silencing of GDF10 expression reversed these effects. Sca-1 attenuated GDF10-dependent TGF-β signaling by disrupting the heterodimerization of TβRI and TβRII receptors. These findings suggest a new functional role for Sca-1 in maintaining tumorigenicity, in part by acting as a potent suppressor of TGF-β signaling.
