Rho GDP dissociation inhibitor 2 (RhoGDI2) promotes tumor growth and malignant progression and enhances chemoresistance of gastric cancer. Recently, we noted an inverse correlation between RhoGDI2 and 14-3-3σ expression, which suggests that 14-3-3σ is a target of gastric cancer metastasis and the chemoresistance-promoting effect of RhoGDI2. Herein, we evaluated whether 14-3-3σ is regulated by RhoGDI2 and is functionally important for the RhoGDI2-induced cisplatin resistance of gastric cancer cells. We used highly metastatic and cisplatin-resistant RhoGDI2-overexpressing SNU-484 cells and observed decreased 14-3-3σ mRNA and protein expression. Depletion of 14-3-3σ in SNU-484 control cells enhanced cisplatin resistance, whereas restoration of 14-3-3σ in RhoGDI2-overexpressing SNU-484 cells impaired cisplatin resistance in vitro and in vivo. We also found that the phosphorylation levels of Erk and p38 kinases significantly decreased in RhoGDI2-overexpressing SNU-484 cells and recovered after 14-3-3σ expression, and that decreased activities of these kinases were critical for RhoGDI2-induced cisplatin resistance. In conclusion, 14-3-3σ is a RhoGDI2-regulated gene that appears to be important for suppressing the chemoresistance of gastric cancer cells.

14-3-3σ attenuates RhoGDI2-induced cisplatin resistance through activation of Erk and p38 in gastric cancer cells
