-Catenin-Lef-1 and c-Jun in Regulation of Osteopontin Transcription*

Osteopontin (OPN) is a multifunctional protein implicated in mammary development, neoplastic change, and metastasis. OPN is a target gene for
-catenin-T cell factor signaling, which is commonly disturbed during mammary oncogenesis, but the understanding of OPN regulation is incomplete. Data base-assisted bioinformatic analysis of the OPN promoter region has revealed the presence of T cell factor-, Ets-, and AP-1-binding motifs. Here we report that
-catenin, Lef-1, Ets transcription factors, and the AP-1 protein c-Jun each weakly enhanced luciferase expression from a OPN promoter-luciferase reporter construct, transiently transfected into a rat mammary cell line. OPN promoter responsiveness to
-catenin and Lef-1, however, was considerably enhanced by Ets transcription factors including Ets-1, Ets-2, ERM, and particularly PEA3. PEA3 also enhanced promoter responsiveness to the AP-1 protein c-Jun. Co-transfection of cells with
-catenin, Lef-1, PEA3, and c-Jun in combination increased luciferase expression by up to 280-fold and induced expression of endogenous rat OPN. In six human breast cell lines, those that highly expressed OPN also expressed PEA3 and Ets-1. Moreover, there was a significant association of immunocytochemical staining for OPN and one of
-catenin, Ets-1, Ets-2, PEA3, or c-Jun, in the 29 human breast carcinomas tested. This study shows that
-catenin/Lef-1, Ets, and AP-1 transcription factors can cooperate in a rat mammary cell line in stimulating transcription of OPN and that their independent presence is associated with that of OPN in a group of human breast cancers. These results suggest that the presence of these transcription factors in human breast cancer is responsible in part for the overexpression of OPN that, in turn, is implicated in mammary neoplastic progression and metastasis.
