摘要: RalA and RalB proteins are key mediators of oncogenic Ras signaling in human oncogenesis. Herein we investigated the mechanistic contribution Ral to invasion lung cancer A549 cells after induction epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) with TGFβ. We show that TGFβ-induced EMT promotes dissemination a 2/3D assay, independently proteolysis, by activating Rho/ROCK pathway which generates actomyosin-dependent contractility forces actively remodel extracellular matrix, as assessed Traction Force microscopy. RalB, but not RalA, is required for matrix deformation cell acting via RhoGEF GEF-H1, associates Exocyst complex, major effector. Indeed, uncoupling subunit Sec5 from GEF-H1 impairs RhoA activation, generation traction dissemination. These results provide novel molecular mechanism underlying control cross-talk Rho pathway.
