摘要：Phosphotyrosine Interaction Domain containing 1 (PID1; NYGGF4) inhibits growth of medulloblastoma, glioblastoma and atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor cell lines. PID1 tumor mRNA levels are highly correlated with longer survival in medulloblastoma and glioma patients, suggesting their tumors may have been more sensitive to therapy. We hypothesized that PID1 sensitizes brain tumors to therapy. We found that PID1 increased the apoptosis induced by cisplatin and etoposide in medulloblastoma and glioblastoma cell lines. PID1 siRNA diminished cisplatin-induced apoptosis, suggesting that PID1 is required for cisplatin-induced apoptosis. Etoposide and cisplatin increased NFκB promoter reporter activity and etoposide induced nuclear translocation of NFκB. Etoposide also increased PID1 promoter reporter activity, PID1 mRNA, and PID1 protein, which were diminished by NFκB inhibitors JSH-23 and Bay117082. However, while cisplatin increased PID1 mRNA, it decreased PID1 protein. This decrease in PID1 protein was mitigated by the proteasome inhibitor, bortezomib, suggesting that cisplatin induced proteasome dependent degradation of PID1. These data demonstrate for the first time that etoposide- and cisplatin-induced apoptosis in medulloblastoma and glioblastoma cell lines is mediated in part by PID1, involves NFκB, and may be regulated by proteasomal degradation. This suggests that PID1 may contribute to responsiveness to chemotherapy.
