Project description:Oxaliplatin as a first-line drug frequently causes the chemo-resistance on colorectal cancer (CRC). N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation has been largely acknowledged in multiple biological functions. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the m6A methylation in modulating anticancer drug resistance in CRC are still obscure. In present study, RIP-seq was conducted to investigate the occupancy of N6-methyladenosine RNA binding protein 3 (YTHDF3) served as “readers” that can recognize m6A modification site in HCT116 cells with oxaliplatin resistance (HCT116R). Then, YTHDF3 was knockdown by siRNA in HCT116 cells with oxaliplatin resistance, and RIP-seq was further conducted to investigate m6A methylation of HCT116, HCT116R and HCT116R cells with YTHDF3 knockdown.

Project description:BACKGROUND & AIMS: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) induced by chronic liver damage is a major cause of cancer mortality, but its precise epigenetic mechanisms are severely under studied. In addition, the role of N6-methyladenine (m6A) reader YTHDF3 in human diseases remains poorly understood. METHODS: Liver injury and hepatocarcinogenesis in mice were induced by chemical. CRISPR/Cas9 technology was used to construct Ythdf3 and Mettl14 knockout mice. Hepatic cell population characteristics was determined by means of 10X single-cell RNA-seq and flow cytometry. Cell proliferation and DNA damage were evaluated by immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry, and western blot. Liver organoids were cultured to examine liver stem cells function. MeRIP-seq was used to reveal alterations in m6A methylation patterns impacted by chemical-induced liver injury. RIP-seq and Ribo-seq were applied to identify YTHDF3 targets and determine translation efficiency. Small interfering RNAs and dCas13b-FTO-sgRNA plasmids were used to evaluate the function of YTHDF3 and CEBPA in vitro. RESULTS: YTHDF3 depletion exacerbated chemical-induced liver injury with a reduction in functional hepatocytes and stem cells. Furthermore, METTL14 and YTHDF3-dependent RNA m6A dysregulation induced DNA damage and promoted development of HCC. Mechanistically, knockout of Ythdf3 impeded the translation of CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein-alpha (CEBPA), subsequently inhibited expression of PARP1 and PRDX2 to promote DNA damage and induce genomic instability, finally leading to liver injury and HCC. CONCLUSIONS: m6A/YTHDF3/CEBPA regulatory axis plays an essential role in governing cell fates and genomic stability, thereby preventing liver injury and HCC, and offers potential therapeutic avenue for targeting YTHDF3 and CEBPA in the treatment of HCC.

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant internal modification in eukaryotic messenger RNAs (mRNAs), and plays important roles in cell differentiation and organism development. It regulates multiple steps throughout the RNA life cycle including RNA processing, translation, and metabolism, via the recognition by selective binding proteins. In cytoplasm, m6A binding protein YTHDF1 facilitates translation of m6A-modified mRNAs, and YTHDF2 accelerates the decay of m6A-modified transcripts. The biological function of YTHDF3, another cytoplasmic m6A binder of the YTH domain family, remains unknown. Here, we report that YTHDF3 promotes protein synthesis in synergy with YTHDF1, and affects methylated mRNA decay mediated by YTHDF2. Cells deficient in all of YTHDF proteins experience the most dramatic accumulation of the m6A-methylated transcripts. These results indicate that in cytoplasm, YTHDF proteins act in an integrated and cooperative network to accelerate metabolism of m6A-modified mRNAs. The combinative and dynamic nature of YTHDF proteins may collectively impact fundamental biological processes and diseases related to m6A RNA methylation.

Project description:Purpose: To comprehensively profile the landscape of the mRNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification in human colorectal cancer (CRC). Methylated RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeRIP-seq) was explored to compare the difference in mRNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation between CRC tissues and adjacent normal control (NC) tissue. RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) was performed to transcribe differentially expressed mRNAs. Conjoint analysis of MeRIP-seq and RNA-seq data was conducted to predict RNA-binding proteins (RBPs). Results: MeRIP-seq identified 1110 differentially m6A methylated sites (DMMSs) and 980 differentially m6A methylated genes (DMMGs) in CRC, with 50.13% of all modified genes showing unique m6A-modified peaks in CRC. RNA-seq showed 915 upregulated genes and 1463 downregulated genes in CRC. QRT-PCR verified the RNA-seq results by detecting the expression of some mRNAs. Conjoint analysis of MeRIP-seq and RNA-seq identified 400 differentially m6A methylated and expressed genes (DEGs), and pathway analysis detected that DMMGs and DEGs were closely related to cancer. After analyzing these DMMGs and DEGs through the GEPIA database, we found that the expression of B3GNT6, DKC1, SRPK1 and RIMKLB were associated with prognosis, and the expression of B3GNT6 and RIMKLB were associated with clinical stage. 17 RBPs were identified based on the DMMGs and DEGs, among which FXR1, FXR2, FMR1, IGF2BP2, IGF2BP3 and SRSF1 were obviously highly expressed in CRC, and FMR1, IGF2BP2 and IGF2BP3 were closely related to methylation, and might be involved in the development of CRC. Conclusions: This study comprehensively profiled m6A modification of mRNAs in CRC, which revealed possible mechanisms of m6A-mediated gene expression regulation.
