The regulation of the subcellular localization of phosphatase and tensin homologue (PTEN) is critical to its tumor-suppressing functions. Previously, we found that the activation of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt/mTOR/S6 protein kinase (S6K) cascade triggers the nuclear export of PTEN during the G1/S transition. Because mTOR can be alternatively downregulated by tuberous sclerosis complex 2 (TSC2) activation mediated by 5' adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK), we proposed that the activation of AMPK ?1/2 by LKB1 and/or by calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase (CaMKK) would also block the nuclear export of PTEN in a manner similar to that of inhibitors of PI3K, mTOR, and S6K. We found that in LKB1-null A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells, an AMPK activator, metformin, failed to block the nuclear export of PTEN, and the reintroduction of functional LKB1 into these cells restored the metformin-mediated inhibition of the nuclear export of PTEN. In addition, the nuclear export of PTEN was blocked in cells treated with the CaMKK activator ATP, and this inhibition was reversed by the addition of inhibitors of either AMPK (compound C) or CaMKK (STO-609). Although the nuclear export of PTEN is blocked by metformin in MCF-7 breast cancer cells carrying wild-type LKB1, this inhibition could not be reversed by an AMPK inhibitor, suggesting that LKB1 could regulate the nuclear export of PTEN by bypassing AMPK ?1/2. Moreover, ATP could not block the nuclear export of PTEN in AMPK ?1/2(-/-) or TSC2(-/-) mouse embryonic fibroblasts. However, metformin was still able to induce the LKB1-mediated inhibition of the nuclear export of PTEN in these cells. Taken together, these findings strongly suggest that although CaMKK mediates the nuclear retention of PTEN mainly through the activation of AMPK, LKB1 can regulate the nuclear-cytoplasmic trafficking of PTEN, with or without the AMPK/TSC2/mTOR/S6K-signaling intermediates.
