BAP1 Downregulates NRF2 Target Genes and Exerts Anti-Tumorigenic Effects by Deubiquitinating KEAP1 in Lung Adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: KELCH-ECH-associated protein 1 (KEAP1) is an adaptor protein of Cullin 3 (CUL3) E3 ubiquitin ligase that targets a redox sensitive transcription factor, NF-E2-related factor 2 (NRF2). BRCA1-associated protein 1 (BAP1) is a tumor suppressor and deubiquitinase whose mutations increase the risk of several types of familial cancers. In the present study, we have identified that BAP1 deubiquitinates KEAP1 by binding to the BTB domain. Lentiviral transduction of BAP1 decreased the expression of NRF2 target genes, suppressed the migration and invasion, and sensitized cisplatin-induced apoptosis in human lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) A549 cells. Examination of the lung tissues in KrasG12D/+ mice demonstrated that the level of Bap1 and Keap1 mRNAs progressively decreases during lung tumor progression, and it is correlated with NRF2 activation and the inhibition of oxidative stress. Supporting this observation, lentiviral transduction of BAP1 decreased the growth of A549 xenografts in athymic nude mice. Transcriptome analysis of human lung tissues showed that the levels of Bap1 mRNA are significantly higher in normal samples than LUAD samples. Moreover, the expression of Bap1 mRNA is associated with a better survival of LUAD patients. Together, our study demonstrates that KEAP1 deubiquitination by BAP1 is novel tumor suppressive mechanism of LUAD.

Project description:Diallyl sulfide, diallyl disulfide, and daillyl trisulfide (DATS) are major volatile components of garlic oil. In this study, we assessed their relative potency in inducing antioxidant enzyme expression. Among the three organosulfur compounds, DATS was found to be most potent in inducing heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) andNad(p)hquinone oxidoreductase-1 (NQO1) in human gastric epithelial (AGS) cells. Furthermore, DATS administration by gavage increased the expression of HO-1 and NQO1 in C57BL/6 mouse stomach. Treatment with DATS increased the accumulation of nuclear factor-erythroid-2-related factor-2 (Nrf2) in the nucleus of cultured AGS cells and in mouse stomach in vivo. The DATS-induced expression of HO-1 and NQO1 was abrogated in the cells transiently transfected with Nrf2-siRNA or in the embryonic fibroblasts from Nrf2-null mice, indicating that Nrf2 is a key mediator of the cytoprotective effects of DATS. Pretreatment of AGS cells with N-acetylcysteine or dithiothreitol attenuated DATS-induced nuclear localization of Nrf2 and the expression of HO-1 and NQO1. Cysteine-151, -273 and -288 of Kelch-like ECH-associated protein-1 (Keap1), a cytosolic repressor of Nrf2, have been considered to act as a redox sensor and play a role in Nrf2 activation. To determine whether DATS could inactivate Keap1 through thiol modification, we established cell lines constitutively expressing wild type-Keap1 or three different mutant constructs in which cysteine-151, -273, or -288 of Keap1 was replaced with serine by retroviral gene transfer. DATS failed to activate Nrf2, and to induce expression of HO-1 and NQO1 only in Keap1-C288S mutant cells. LC-ESI-MS/MS analysis of recombinant Keap1 treated with DATS revealed that the peptide fragment containing Cys288 gained a molecular mass of 72.1 Da equivalent to the molecular weight of mono-allyl mono-sulfide. Taken together, these findings suggest that DATS may directly interact with the Cys288 residue of Keap1, which partly accounts for its ability to induce Nrf2 activation and upregulate defensive gene expression.
