Abstract

Pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide (PACAP) is a growth factor for lung cancer cells. PACAP-27 or PACAP-38 binds with high affinity to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells, causing elevated cytosolic Ca, increased proliferation and increased phosphorylation of extracellular regulated kinase (ERK) and the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). The role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was investigated in these processes. Addition of PACAP-38 to NCI-H838 or A549 cells increased the tyrosine phosphorylation of the EGFR, HER2 and ERK significantly by 4-, 3-, and 2-fold, respectively. The transactivation of the EGFR and HER2 was inhibited by gefitinib or lapatinib (tyrosine kinase inhibitors), PACAP (6-38) (PAC1 antagonist), N-acetylcysteine (NAC is an anti-oxidant) or dipheyleneiodonium (DPI is an inhibitor of Nox and Duox enzymes). PACAP-38 addition to NSCLC cells increased ROS which was inhibited by PACAP (6-38), NAC or DPI. Nox1, Nox2, Nox3, Nox4, Nox5, Duox1 and Duox2 mRNA was present in many NSCLC cell lines. PACAP-38 stimulated the growth of NSCLC cells whereas PACAP (6-38), gefitinib or DPI inhibited proliferation. The results show that ROS are essential for PAC1 to regulate EGFR and HER2 transactivation as well as proliferation of NSCLC cells.
