Abstract: | Cancer cell plasticity generates heterogeneous oncogenic subpopulations in tumors. How macroautophagy/autophagy, a catabolic system required for sustaining cell homeostasis, affects cancer cell plasticity, remains elusive. In this study, we report that MAP1LC3A/LC3A (microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3 alpha), a key molecule in autophagy, is negatively associated with histological grade and distant metastasis of lung cancer. This is achieved in part, if not all, by maintaining the mitochondria and energy homeostasis to meet the proliferation demand of lung cancer cells driven by SOX2 (SRY-box transcription factor 2) signaling. Basal autophagy is preferentially active in SOX2-positive lung cancer cells with high-proliferative and low-invasive properties. The high-proliferative cancer cells exhibit higher oxygen consumption rate (OCR), elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS), and profound fragmented mitochondrial patterns compared to their high-invasive counterparts. SOX2 expression promotes LC3A expression and enhances proliferation but attenuates invasion in lung cancer cells. LC3A silencing enriches cells harboring low-proliferative and high-invasive features, concomitant with decreased OCR and ROS levels and reduced expression of SOX2. Our findings provide novel insights into how basal autophagy cross talks with SOX2 proliferation signaling to regulate mitochondrial metabolism and determines cancer cell plasticity with an impact on lung tumor progression.
