Popis: Early diagnosis of prostate cancer is a challenging issue due to the lack of specific markers. Therefore, a sensitive diagnostic marker that is expressed or upregulated exclusively in prostate cancer cells would facilitate diagnostic procedures and ensure a better outcome. We evaluated the expression of myosin 1C isoform A in 5 prostate cell lines, 41 prostate cancer cases, and 11 benign hyperplasias. We analyzed the expression of 12 surface molecules on prostate cancer cells by flow cytometry and analyzed whether high or low myosin 1C isoform A expression could be attributed to a distinct phenotype of prostate cancer cells. Median myosin 1C isoform A expression in prostate cancer samples and cancer cell lines was 2 orders of magnitude higher than in benign prostate hyperplasia. Based on isoform A expression, we could also distinguish clinical stage 2 from clinical stage 3. Among cell lines, PC-3 cells with the highest myosin 1C isoform A level had diminished numbers of CD10/CD13-positive cells and increased numbers of CD29 (integrin β1), CD38, CD54 (ICAM1) positive cells. The surface phenotype of clinical samples was similar to prostate cancer cell lines with high isoform A expression and could be described as CD10-/CD13- with heterogeneous expression of other markers. Both for cell lines and cancer specimens we observed the strong correlation of high myosin 1C isoform A mRNA expression and elevated levels of CD29 and CD54, suggesting a more adhesive phenotype for cells with high isoform A expression. Compared to normal tissue, prostate cancer samples had also reduced numbers of CD24- and CD38-positive cells. Our data suggest that a high level of myosin 1C isoform A is a specific marker both for prostate cancer cells and prostate cancer cell lines. High expression of isoform A is associated with less activated (CD24/CD38 low) and more adhesive (CD29/CD54 high) surface phenotype compared to benign prostate tissue.
