Protein kinase D1 is essential for Ras-induced senescence and tumor suppression by regulating senescence-associated inflammation.

ABSTRACT: Oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) is an initial barrier to tumor development. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) is critical for oncogenic Ras OIS, but the downstream effectors to mediate ROS signaling are still relatively elusive. Senescent cells develop a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). However, the mechanisms underlying the regulation of the SASP are largely unknown. Here, we identify protein kinase D1 (PKD1) as a downstream effector of ROS signaling to mediate Ras OIS and SASP. PKD1 is activated by oncogenic Ras expression and PKD1 promotes Ras OIS by mediating inflammatory cytokines interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-8 (IL-8) via modulation of NF-κB activity. We demonstrate that ROS-protein kinase Cδ (PKCδ)-PKD1 axis is essential for the establishment and maintenance of
