Insulin-like Growth Factor-binding Protein-3 Potentiates Epidermal Growth Factor Action in MCF-10A Mammary Epithelial Cells

Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) is inhibitory to the growth of many breast cancer cells in vitro; however, a high level of expression of IGFBP-3 in breast tumors correlates with poor prognosis, suggesting that IGFBP-3 may be associated with growth stimulation in some breast cancers. We have shown previously in MCF-10A breast epithelial cells that chronic activation of Ras-p44/42 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase confers resistance to the growth-inhibitory effects of IGFBP-3 (Martin, J. L., and Baxter, R. C. (1999) J. Biol. Chem. 274, 16407-16411). Here we show that, in the same cell line, IGFBP-3 potentiates DNA synthesis and cell proliferation stimulated by epidermal growth factor (EGF), a potent activator of Ras. A mutant of IGFBP-3, which fails to translocate to the nucleus and has reduced ability to cell-associate, similarly enhanced EGF action in these cells. By contrast, the structurally related IGFBP-5, which shares many functional features with IGFBP-3, was slightly inhibitory to DNA synthesis in the presence of EGF. IGFBP-3 primes MCF-10A cells to respond to EGF because pre-incubation caused a similar degree of EGF potentiation as co-incubation. In IGFBP-3-primed cells, EGF-stimulated EGF receptor phosphorylation at Tyr-1068 was increased relative to unprimed cells, as was phosphorylation and activity of p44/42 and p38 MAP kinases, but not Akt/PKB. Partial blockade of the p44/42 and p38 MAP kinase pathways abolished the potentiation by IGFBP-3 of EGF-stimulated DNA synthesis. Collectively, these findings indicate that IGFBP-3 enhances EGF signaling and proliferative effects in breast epithelial cells via increased EGF receptor phosphorylation and activation of p44/42 and p38 MAP kinase signaling pathways.
