LukS-PV inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma cells migration by downregulating HDAC6 expression.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a clinically common malignant tumor worldwide. LukS-PV is the S component of Panton-Valentine leukocidin secreted by Staphylococcus aureus, which has shown anti-cancer activity. Based on previous findings, this study investigated the effects of LukS-PV on HCC migration and the potential molecular mechanisms involving acetylation pathways.After treating ...
HCC cells with different concentrations of LukS-PV, we used scratch assays to determine the mobility of the cancer cells. Western blots were used to determine the expression levels of migration-related proteins. Quantitative proteomic sequencing was used to evaluate proteomic changes in target proteins. Immunoprecipitation and liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry analyses were used to validate the binding of related target proteins.LukS-PV inhibited HCC cell migration in a concentration-dependent manner. In addition, LukS-PV attenuated the expression of histone deacetylase (HDAC)6, which is highly expressed in HCC cells. Further studies showed that LukS-PV increased the acetylation level of ?-tubulin by down-regulating HDAC6, which resulted in the inhibition of HCC cell migration.Taken together, our data revealed a vital role of LukS-PV in suppressing HCC cell migration by down-regulating HDAC6 and increasing the acetylation level of ?-tubulin.
