Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) serves as a modulator of survival in breast cancer cells. The mechanisms by which bFGF transduces the anti-apoptotic signal and interacts with COX inhibitors were investigated. bFGF reduced apoptosis in MCF-7 breast cancer cells and up-regulated the expression of mitocondrial Bcl-2, whereas COX inhibitors meloxicam (selective COX-2) and aspirin (non-selective), induced apoptosis. bFGF up-regulated survivin protein expression and induced cdc-2 phosphorylation moderately at early (2-6 h), and substantially at late (24 h), time-points. Survivin mRNA expression was up-regulated only at the later time-point. COX inhibitors prevented up-regulation of survivin protein expression at both 2 and 24 h and prevented early modest increases in cdc-2 phosphorylation. Up-regulation of survivin mRNA was not found to be modulated by the COX-2 inhibitor meloxicam. bFGF regulation of survivin expression was found to be ERK1/2 kinase dependent and bFGF-induced phosphorylation of c-raf was prevented by the COX-2 inhibitor. bFGF was, however, unable to induce COX-2 protein expression or modulate COX-2 activity in MCF-7 cells as evidenced by unaltered PGE(2) production. These results indicate that bFGF regulates survivin expression in MCF-7 breast cancer cells by signaling through an ERK1/2 dependent pathway. COX-2 inhibitors can modulate bFGF-induced survivin expression in a COX-2 independent manner.
