Objective To investigate the effect of mutant type [ 12 Asp]K ras4B gene on the expression of estrogen receptor(ER) α and β and their transcriptional activity as a transcription factor in endometrial carcinoma HEC 1A cell line Methods (1) Effect of [ 12 Asp]K ras4B on the expression of ER α and β were determined using Western blot assay. (2) Eukaryotic expression plasmid pGL3 luciferase ERE containing luciferase report gene and estrogen receptor element (ERE) was constructed, and co transfected into NIH3T3 and HEC 1A cell lines with pEGFP N1 to examine the effect of [ 12 Asp]K ras4B on ER transcription that is regulated by estradiol In addition, they were transfected into pSV5 HER0 (containing full length wide type ERα cDNA) and pCMV rafS621A (inhibiting raf kinase) plasmids to test the effect of [ 12 Asp]K ras4B/raf signal pathway on transcriptional activity of ER proteins Results (1) Protein level of ERs expressed in pcDI transfected control cells was low while it was increased for 3 6 fold (97±25, 349±67, P <0 01) and 1 9 fold (128±37, 349±30, P <0 05) in ERα and ERβ, respectively, in pcDI [ 12 Asp]K ras4B NIH3T3 cells after transfection. (2) In pcDI [ 12 Asp]K ras4B NIH3T3 cells, the ratios for ERα and and ERβ levels before transfection of rafS621A plasmids to that after the trasfection, were 2 4∶1 (724±45, 310±46, P <0 05) and 1 8∶1 (493±20, 284±20, P <0 01), respectively; In HEC 1A cells, these ratios were 2 1∶1 (566±22, 279±30, P <0 01) and 2 4∶1 (405±33, 165±15, P <0 01), respectively. (3) In low serum (2%) culture condition, estradiol (E 2) stimulated luciferase activity with an increase of 13 fold (130±42, 1681±242, P <0 01) in pcDI [ 12 Asp] K ras4B NIH3T3 cells, 19 fold (141±39, 2644±331, P <0 001) in HEC 1A cells, respectively, when compared with those in the absence of E 2. (4) In pSV5 HER0 transfected pcDI [ 12 Asp] K ras4B NIH3T3 cells and HEC 1A cells, compared to the untransfected cells, the ER transcriptional activity in the transfected cells increased markedly The luciferase activity was increased for 8 fold (1048±91, 8099±452, P <0 01) and 6 fold (2148±259, 12 705±2670, P <0 001), respectively. rafS621A mutant had suppressive effects on luciferase activities in HEC 1A cells and pcDI [ 12 Asp]K ras4B NIH3T3 cells The ratio of luciferase activities in pcDI [ 12 Asp]K ras4B NIH3T3 and HEC 1A cells, before and after transfection was 7 8∶1 (1184±168, 152±27, P <0 05) and 6 4∶1 (1949±212, 304±60, P <0 01), respectively Conclusions (1) [ 12 Asp]K ras4B can enhance the expression of ERα and β proteins This may be correlated with [ 12 Asp]K ras4B/raf signaling pathway. (2) The effect of mutant type [ 12 Asp]K ras4B gene on ERs transcriptional activity in HEC 1A cells appears to need E 2
