EglN2 associates with the NRF1-PGC1? complex and controls mitochondrial function in breast cancer.

ABSTRACT: The EglN2/PHD1 prolyl hydroxylase is an important oxygen sensor contributing to breast tumorigenesis. Emerging studies suggest that there is functional cross talk between oxygen sensing and mitochondrial function, both of which play an essential role for sustained tumor growth. However, the potential link between EglN2 and mitochondrial function remains largely undefined. Here, we show that EglN2 depletion decreases mitochondrial respiration in breast cancer under normoxia and hypoxia, which correlates with decreased mitochondrial DNA in a HIF1/2?-independent manner. Integrative analyses of gene expression profile and genomewide binding of EglN2 under hypoxic conditions reveal nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF1) motif enrichment in EglN2-activated genes, suggesting NRF1 as an EglN2 binding partner. Mechanistically, by forming an activator complex with PGC1? and NRF1 on chromatin, EglN2 promotes the transcription of ferridoxin reductase (FDXR) and maintains mitochondrial function. In addition, FDXR, as one of effectors for EglN2, contributes to breast tumorigenesis in vitro and in vivo. Our findings suggest that EglN2 regulates mitochondrial function in ER?-positive breast cancer.

Project description:Cancer treatment increases cardiovascular disease risk, but physical activity (PA) may prevent cardiovascular disease. This study examined whether greater PA was associated with better submaximal exercise capacity and cardiac function during cancer therapy. Participants included 223 women with stage I to III breast cancer (BC) before and 3 months after undergoing treatment and 126 control participants. Leisure-time PA (LTPA) was reported using the Godin-Shephard LTPA questionnaire. Cardiac function was assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance. Submaximal exercise capacity was determined by 6-minute walk distance. BC participants reported similar baseline LTPA scores (24.7; 95% CI: 21.7-28.0) as control participants (29.4; 95% CI: 25.0-34.2). The BC group declined to 16.9 (95% CI: 14.4-19.6) at 3 months relative to 30.8 (95% CI: 26.2-35.8) in control participants. Among BC participants, more LTPA was related to better exercise capacity (β ± SE: 7.1 ± 1.6; 95% CI: 4.0-10.1) and left ventricular (LV) circumferential strain (-0.16 ± 0.07; 95% CI: -0.29 to -0.02). Increased LTPA over the 3 months was associated with decreased likelihood of treatment-induced cardiac dysfunction according to LV circumferential strain classifications (OR: 0.98; 95% CI: 0.97-0.998). BC participants reporting insufficient LTPA according to PA guidelines exhibited deteriorations in exercise capacity (adjusted mean difference ± SE: -29 ± 10 m; P = 0.029), LV end-systolic volume (5.8 ± 1.3 mL; P < 0.001), LV ejection fraction (-3.2% ± 0.8%; P = 0.002), and LV circumferential strain (2.5% ± 0.5%; P < 0.001), but BC participants meeting LTPA guidelines did not exhibit these adverse changes. PA declined during BC therapy; however, PA participation was associated with attenuated declines in exercise capacity and cardiac function that are often observed in this population.
