Estrogen nuclear receptors affect cell migration by altering sublocalization of AQP2 in glioma cell lines.

ABSTRACT: Glioblastomas are capable of infiltrating into neighboring brain tissues. The prognosis of a male patient is worse than that of women. Here, we demonstrate the effects of estrogen on invasion of glioma cells via regulating estrogen nuclear receptors (ERα and ERβ) combined with aquaporin 2 (AQP2). In our study, we conclude that AQP2 was located mainly in the nuclei of the glioma cell lines and is capable of inhibiting cell invasion. According to the gene ontology analysis, out of 138 screened genes, three genes of ankyrin repeat and FYVE domain containing 1 (ANKFY1), lymphocyte transmembrane adaptor 1 (LAX1), and latent transforming growth factor beta-binding protein 1 (LTBP1) were found to be regulating the ERα and ERβ. The expression of ERα was found to be high, where
