    Despite growing evidence implicating the calcium-activated chloride channel anoctamin1 (ANO1) in cancer metastasis, its direct impact on the metastatic potential of prostate cancer and the possible significance of epigenetic alteration in this process are not fully understood. Here, we show that ANO1 is minimally expressed in LNCap and DU145 prostate cancer cell lines with low metastatic potential but overexpressed in high metastatic PC3 prostate cancer cell line. The treatment of LNCap and DU145 cells with DNMT inhibitor 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-Aza-CdR) potentiates ANO1 expression, suggesting that DNA methylation is one of the mechanisms controlling ANO1 expression. Consistent with this notion, hypermethylation was detected at the CpG island of ANO1 promoter region in LNCap and DU145 cells, and 5-Aza-CdR treatment resulted in a drastic demethylation at promoter CpG methylation sites. Upon 5-Aza-CdR treatment, metastatic indexes, such as cell motility, invasion, and metastasis-related gene expression, were significantly altered in LNCap and DU145 cells. These 5-Aza-CdR-induced metastatic hallmarks were, however, almost completely ablated by stable knockdown of ANO1. These in vitro discoveries were further supported by our in vivo observation that ANO1 expression in xenograft mouse models enhances the metastatic dissemination of prostate cancer cells into tibial bone and the development of osteolytic lesions. Collectively, our results help elucidate the critical role of ANO1 expression in prostate cancer bone metastases, which is epigenetically modulated by promoter CpG methylation.
