ABSTRACT
Incretins, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), are hormones secreted from small intestine accompanied with oral intake. We previously showed that transforming growth factor (TGF)-α stimulates the migration of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells via mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases, AKT and Rho-kinase. However, it remains to be elucidated whether incretins affect HCC cell functions. In the present study, therefore, we investigated whether incretins affect the migration of HCC cells using human HCC-derived HuH7 cells. GLP-1, but not GIP, reduced both TGF-α- and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)-induced cell migration. IBMX, an inhibitor of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase, enhanced the suppressive effect of GLP-1. GLP-1 attenuated the phosphorylation of stress-activated protein kinase/c-Jun N-terminal kinase (SAPK/JNK) by TGF-α and HGF. Our results strongly suggest that GLP-1 suppresses TGF-α- and HGF-induced migration of HCC cells through inhibiting the SAPK/JNK signaling pathway, and that the inhibition by GLP-1 is due to cAMP production.
