This study aims to analyze the biological significance of BDNF/TrkB signaling in GBC, and explore its potential as a novel therapeutic target.
Experimental Design: We investigated TrkB expression clinically in 69 resected primary GBC specimens, and examined the correlation between TrkB expression and clinicopathological findings by immunohistochemistry. We used five TrkB-expressing GBC cell lines with or without K-ras mutation for in vitro investigations, and analyzed tumorigenesis and tumor growth of TrkB siRNA-transfected GBC cells in vivo using a xenograft model.
Results: TrkB expression was detected in 63 (91.3%) clinical GBC specimens. TrkB expression in the invasive front correlated with T factor (p=0.0391) and clinical staging (p=0.0391). Overall survival was lower in patients with high TrkB expression in the invasive front than in those with low TrkB expression (p=0.0363). In vitro, proliferation was unaffected by rhBDNF treatment; however, K252a treatment and TrkB siRNA transfection decreased proliferation. rhBDNF treatment increased invasiveness by inducing EMT and activating MMP-2/MMP-9, whereas K252a treatment abrogated these effects. TrkB or BDNF siRNA transfection suppressed invasiveness. TrkB siRNA transfection decreased HIF-1α, VEGF-A, and VEGF-C/-D expression. In vivo, TrkB siRNA transfection decreased tumorigenicity and tumor growth in GBC.
Conclusions: These findings demonstrate that TrkB-mediated signaling is associated with malignant phenotypes (proliferation, invasiveness, angiogenesis, lymphangiogenesis, and tumorigenesis) in GBC, and could be a novel therapeutic target regardless of K-ras mutation status..
