DNA N6-Methyladenine (6mA) Modification Regulates Drug Resistance in Triple Negative Breast Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a subtype of breast cancer with strong aggressiveness and poor clinical treatment effect, accounting for about 10-20% of breast cancer cases. N(6)-methyldeoxyadenosine (6mA) is the most conservative DNA modification in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is widely found in bacteria and has such functions as DNA mismatch repair, chromosome separation and virulence regulation. We determined that 6mA was modified in TNBC cell line MDA-MB-231 and the TNBC tissue. Meanwhile, compared with normal tissues, the expression level of 6mA and its methylase N6AMT1 was significantly decreased in TNBC tissue. MDA-MB-231cells were cultured with 8?M Olaparib for 2 months to construct drug-resistant cell line 231-RO. It was found that the level of 6mA also increased significantly, and the expression of N6AMT1 or ALKBH1 could effectively influence the drug resistance. Subsequently, we found that LINP1 was highly expressed in 231-RO, which was involved in DNA repair, and the expression of LINP1 could be positively regulated by 6mA modification. LINP1 expression level is directly related to TNBC drug resistance. The above results indicate that 6mA may be a new biological marker of TNBC. Meanwhile, 6mA modification may be involved in the regulation of Olaparib resistance.

Project description:Background: Osteoarthritis is a common chronic degenerative disease, and recently, an increasing number of studies have shown that immunity plays an important role in the progression of osteoarthritis, which is exacerbated by local inflammation. The role of N6-methyladenine (m6A) modification in immunity is being explored. However, the role of m6A modification in regulating the immune microenvironment of osteoarthritis remains unknown. In this study, we sought to discuss the association between the N6-methyladenine (m6A) modification and the immune microenvironment of osteoarthritis. Methods: First, the data and gene expression profiles of 139 samples, including 33 healthy samples and 106 osteoarthritis samples, were obtained from the Genetics osteoARthritis and Progression (GARP) study. Then the differences in m6A regulators between healthy individuals and osteoarthritis patients were analyzed. The correlation between m6A regulators and immune characteristics was also investigated by single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA). Principal component analysis (PCA), Gene Set Variation Analysis (GSVA) enrichment analysis, weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA), and Associated R packages were used to identify the m6A phenotype and its biological functions. Results: A total of 23 m6A regulators were involved in this study. We found a close correlation between most m6A regulators in all samples as well as in osteoarthritis samples. VIRMA and LRPPRC were the most highly correlated m6A regulators and showed a positive correlation, whereas VIRMA and RBM15B were the most negatively correlated. M6A regulators are associated with osteoarthritis immune characteristics. For example, MDSC cell abundance was strongly correlated with RBM15B and HNRNPC. Meanwhile, RBM15B and HNRNPC were important effectors of natural killer cell immune responses. IGFBP3 is an important regulator of cytolytic activity immune function. We performed an unsupervised consensus cluster analysis of the osteoarthritis samples based on the expression of 23 m6A regulators. Three different m6A subtypes of osteoarthritis were identified, including 27 samples in subtype C1, 21 samples in subtype C2, and 58 samples in subtype C3. Different m6A subtypes have unique biological pathways and play different roles in the immune microenvironment of osteoarthritis. Conclusion: The m6A modification plays a crucial role in the diversity and complexity of the immune microenvironment in osteoarthritis.
