Claudin-2 is highly expressed in lung adenocarcinoma tissues and increases proliferation in adenocarcinoma cells. The chemicals which reduce claudin-2 expression may have anti-cancer effect, but such therapeutic medicines have not been developed. We found that azacitidine (AZA), a DNA methylation inhibitor, and trichostatin A (TSA) and sodium butyrate (NaB), histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors, decrease claudin-2 levels. The effect of AZA was mediated by the inhibition of phosphorylated Akt and NFκB. LY-294002, an inhibitor of phosphatidyl inositol-3 kinase (PI3K), and BAY 11-7082, an NF-κB inhibitor, decreased claudin-2 levels. The reporter activity of claudin-2 was decreased by AZA and LY-294002, which was blocked by the mutation in a putative NF-κB binding site. NF-κ;B bound to the promoter region of claudin-2, which was inhibited by AZA and LY-294002. AZA is suggested to decrease claudin-2 mRNA level mediated by the inhibition of a PI3K/Akt/NF-κB pathway. TSA and NaB did not change phosphorylated Akt and NF-κB levels. Furthermore, these inhibitors did not change the reporter activity of claudin-2, but decreased the stability of claudin-2 mRNA mediated by the elevation of miR-497 microRNA. The binding of histone H3 to the promoter region of miR-497 was inhibited by TSA and NaB, whereas that of claudin-2 was not. These results suggest that HDAC inhibitors decrease claudin-2 levels mediated by the elevation of miR-497 expression. Cell proliferation was additively decreased by AZA, TSA and NaB, which was partially rescued by ectopic expression of claudin-2. We suggest that epigenetic inhibitors suppress the abnormal proliferation of lung adenocarcinoma cells highly expressing claudin-2.
