title: KAI1/CD82 suppresses hepatocyte growth factor-induced migration of hepatoma cells via upregulation of Sprouty2.
abstract: We conducted a study concerning the suppressive mechanism of KAI1/CD82 on hepatoma cell metastasis. Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) induces the migration of hepatoma cells through activation of cellular sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1). Adenovirus-mediated gene transfer of KAI1 (Ad-KAI1) downregulates the SphK1 expression and suppresses the HGF-induced migration of SMMC-7721 human hepatocellcular carcinoma cells. Overexpression of KAI1/CD82 significantly elevates Sprouty2 at the protein level. Ablation of Sprouty2 with RNA interference can block the KAI1/CD82-induced suppression of hepatoma cell migration and downregulation of SphK1 expression. It is demonstrated that KAI1/CD82 suppresses HGF-induced migration of hepatoma cells via upregulation of Sprouty2.
