PIP₃ abundance overcomes PI3K signaling selectivity in invadopodia.

ABSTRACT: PI3Kβ is required for invadopodia-mediated matrix degradation by breast cancer cells. Invadopodia maturation requires GPCR activation of PI3Kβ and its coupling to SHIP2 to produce PI(3,4)P₂ . We now test whether selectivity for PI3Kβ is preserved under conditions of mutational increases in PI3K activity. In breast cancer cells where PI3Kβ is inhibited, short-chain diC8-PIP₃  rescues gelatin degradation in a SHIP2-dependent manner; rescue by diC8-PI(3,4)P₂  is SHIP2-independent. Surprisingly, the expression of either activated PI3Kβ or PI3Kα mutants rescued the effects of PI3Kβ inhibition. In both cases, gelatin degradation was SHIP2-dependent. These data confirm the requirement for PIP₃ conversion to PI(3,4)P₂ for invadopodia function
