Abstract
Siah E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 1 (SIAH1) has been reported to participate in the development of several human cancers, including gastric cancer. However, the effect and mechanism of SIAH1 on the migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells need be further explored. Here, we first analyzed the clinical value of SIAH1 in gastric cancer, and found that SIAH1 was up-regulated in gastric cancer and associated with a poor prognosis. In addition, silencing of SIAH1 significantly inhibited the migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells through inhibiting the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP9), while overexpression of SIAH1 had the opposite effect. Molecularly, we provided the evidence that reversion-inducing cysteine-rich protein with Kazal motifs (RECK) was a potential substrate of SIAH1. We determined that SIAH1 could destabilize RECK through promoting its ubiquitination and degradation via proteasome pathway. We also found RECK was involved in SIAH1-regulated gastric cancer cell migration and invasion. In conclusion, SIAH1 is up-regulated in gastric cancer, which promotes the migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells through regulating RECK-MMP9 pathway.
