Beta 2-microglobulin ( 2M) is a signaling and growth-
promoting factor stimulating prostate cancer cell
proliferation and progression. Blockade of the Beta 2M
signaling axis resulted in the inhibition of androgen
receptor (AR) and its target gene, prostate-specific
antigen (PSA), and the induction of programmed death of
prostate cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. Also, we
identified a new cis-acting element, sterol regulatory
element-binding protein-1 (SREBP-1) binding site, within
the 5 -flanking human AR promoter region and its binding
transcription factor, SREBP-1, regulating AR
transcription by anti- Beta 2M monoclonal antibody in
prostate cancer cells. Furthermore, we revealed the novel
molecular mechanism by which SREBP-1 promotes prostate
cancer growth and progression. Alteration of SREBP-1
expression leads to regulate AR expression, cell growth,
migration and invasion in prostate cancer cells. SREBP-1
also showed to induce fatty acid and lipid formation in
prostate cancer cells through increase of fatty acid
synthase expression. Additionally, SREBP-1 induced
oxidative stress and NADPH oxidase 5 (Nox5) expression in
prostate cancer cells. In subcutaneous xenograft mouse
models, SREBP-1 significantly increased LNCaP tumor
growth and promoted prostate tumor castration-resistant
progression. These findings provided a new concept to
reveal the role of Beta 2M and its related signaling
pathways, including AR, SREBP-1, fat metabolism and
oxidative stress, contribute to prostate cancer growth,
survival and progression, and further provides a new
potential target to prevent and treat prostate cancer
malignancy by using anti-Beta 2M monoclonal antibody.
