title: Calcyclin-binding protein inhibits proliferation, tumorigenicity, and invasion of gastric cancer.
abstract: Calcyclin-binding protein/Siah-1-interacting protein (CacyBP/SIP), a target protein of the S100 family, which includes S100A6, S100A1, S100A12, S100B, and S100P, has been identified as a component of a novel ubiquitinylation complex leading to beta-catenin degradation. However, the function of CacyBP/SIP in gastric cancer has not been elucidated. In the present study, we prepared CacyBP/SIP overexpressing and knockdown cell lines of gastric cancer. Forced CacyBP/SIP expression inhibited the proliferation of gastric cancer cells, suppressed tumorigenicity in vitro, and prolonged the survival time of tumor-bearing nude mice. In addition, increased CacyBP/SIP repressed the invasive potential of gastric cancer cells. Conversely, the down-regulation of CacyBP/SIP by RNA interference showed the opposite effects. Further studies showed that depressed CacyBP/SIP increased the expression of total and nuclear beta-catenin at the protein level and elevated the transcriptional activity of Tcf/LEF. Taken together, our results suggest that CacyBP/SIP may be a potential inhibitor of cell growth and invasion in the gastric cancer cell, at least in part through the effect on beta-catenin protein expression and transcriptional activation of Tcf/LEF.
