We have previously shown that CLDN4 (encoding claudin-4), a cell tight junction (TJ) protein, is highly expressed in human epithelial ovarian carcinomas (EOC) but undetectable in normal ovaries. CLDN4 has been identified as a specific receptor for C terminus of Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin (C-CPE), a nontoxic molecule that may disrupt TJ barrier function and enhance cellular absorption. The purpose of this study was to determine the potential clinical applications of C-CPE and its effects on CLDN4 expression in EOC. Using a 3-dimensional culture model and monolayer culture of EOC cells, we examined the effects of C-CPE on CLDN4 expression by quantitative real-time PCR, immunofluorescence, and Western blot. The synergistic effect of C-CPE to clinically relevant chemotherapies (Taxol and Carboplatin) was observed in EOC culture and xenograft mice. Furthermore, we determined through oligonucleotide microarray analysis that the transcript profile alterations dysregulated as a consequence of C-CPE treatment. C-CPE treatment decreased protein expression and relocated CLDN4 from cell-cell contact regions to the cytoplasm. Particularly, C-CPE sensitized EOC cells to chemotherapeutic administration at low dosages and significantly inhibited tumor growth in a nontoxic manner. Furthermore, we provided genome-wide molecular evidence that C-CPE treatment is involved in the stimulation of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway and the inhibition of cell metabolism in EOC cells. The addition of C-CPE can enhance the effectiveness of Taxol or Carboplatin and significantly inhibited EOC cell growth in a CLDN4-dependent manner, suggesting that C-CPE may have promising therapeutic potential for EOC.
