Cellular responses to silencing of PDIA3 (protein disulphide-isomerase A3): effects on proliferation, migration and genes in control of active vitamin D

J Steroid Biochem Mol Biol. 2024 Mar 7:106497. doi: 10.1016/j.jsbmb.2024.106497. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe active form of vitamin D, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, is known to act via VDR (vitamin D receptor), affecting several physiological processes. In addition, PDIA3 (protein disulphide-isomerase A3) has been associated with some of the functions of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. In the present study we used siRNA-mediated silencing of PDIA3 in osteosarcoma and prostate carcinoma cell lines to examine the role(s) of PDIA3 for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-dependent responses. PDIA3 silencing affected VDR target genes and significantly altered the 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-dependent induction of CYP24A1, essential for elimination of excess 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. Also, PDIA3 silencing significantly altered migration and proliferation in prostate PC3 cells, independently of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 increased thermostability of PDIA3 in cellular thermal shift assay, supporting functional interaction between PDIA3 and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-dependent pathways. In summary, our data link PDIA3 to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-mediated signalling, underline and extend its role in proliferation and reveal a novel function in maintenance of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 levels.PMID:38460707 | DOI:10.1016/j.jsbmb.2024.106497
