There is growing evidence that renin-angiotensin system (RAS) components have been involved in the development of various types of cancers, including prostate cancer. This article for the first time reports the impact of Ang1-9 and Ang3-7 on viability and proliferation, migration and invasion of epithelial prostate cells. The results of this study clearly show that Ang1-9 and Ang3-7 exert different/opposite effects on in vitro biological properties of prostate cells. It appears that Ang1-9 has pro-cancer activities via the ability to induce cell divisions, enhance cell motility and stimulate the expression of such genes as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), hypoxia-inducible factors (HIF-1), vimentin (VIM) and REL proto-oncogene, NF-kB subunit (REL). On the contrary, Ang3-7 did not show any mitogenic activity. Furthermore, this peptide hormone limited the migration of PNT1A cells probably by downregulation of VEGF and VIM expression. Finally, it is worth noting that both angiotensins have the ability to modulate gene expression for angiotensin receptors. Unfortunately, we could not unequivocally identify the type of angiotensin receptor responsible for signal transduction pathway involved in PNT1A cell survival and proliferation. Undoubtedly, further research and testing in this area are necessary. (C) 2019 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Inc.
