WNT-1 and HGF regulate GSK3 beta activity and beta-catenin signaling in mammary epithelial cells
Abstract
Wnt-1, a secreted glycoprotein, participates in development of the nervous system and contributes to mammary oncogenesis when overexpressed. We show that GSK3 activity is decreased in mouse mammary cells transformed by Wnt-1. These cells also exhibit a substantial Wnt-1 dependent increase in the uncomplexed population of beta-catenin. Wnt-1 signaling does not change the steady state level of either GSK3 alpha or GSK3 beta but instead leads to an increased association between GSK3 beta and beta-catenin. HGF/SF treatment of mouse mammary cells also leads to a transient decrease in GSK3 activity and a parallel, selective increase in the uncomplexed pool of beta-catenin. Both Wnt-1 and HGF/SF lead to nuclear accumulation of beta-catenin and activation of a LEF/Tcf responsive reporter gene. This study defines a pivotal signal transduction pathway, activated by both Wnt-1 and HGF/SF, leading to decreased GSK3 beta activity and consequently an increase in the free pool and nuclear accumulation of beta-catenin and changes in gene expression.
