✦ Synopsis


Signal regulatory protein (SIRP) ␣1 is a member of the SIRP family that undergoes tyrosine phosphorylation and binds SHP-2 tyrosine phosphatase in response to various mitogens. The expression levels of SIRP␣1 were decreased in HCC tissues, compared with the matched normal tissues. Exogenous expression of wild type SIRP␣1, but not of a mutant SIRP␣1 lacking the tyrosine phosphorylation sites, in SIRP␣1-negative Huh7 human HCC cells resulted in suppression of tumor cell growth both in vitro and in vivo. Treatment of Huh7 transfectants with EGF or HGF induced tyrosine phosphorylation of SIRP␣1 and its association with SHP-2, which were accompanied by reduced ERK1 activation. Expression of SIRP␣1 significantly suppressed activation of NF-B and also sensitized Huh7 cells to TNF␣ or cisplatin-induced cell death. In addition, SIRP␣1-transfected Huh7 cells displayed reduced cell migration and cell spreading in a fashion that was dependent on SIRP␣1/SHP-2 complex formation. In conclusion, a negative regulatory effect of SIRP␣1 on hepatocarcinogenesis is exerted, at least in part, through inhibition of ERK and NF-B pathways.
