RNA-seq for HepG2 cell line with AUF1 knockdown.

ABSTRACT: Although several studies indicate that ARE-specific RNA binding proteins (ARE-BPs) contribute to the development of cancer, the detailed functions and mechanisms of ARE-BPs have not been fully elucidated. By using a bioinformatics analysis of two well-established hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) datasets, we identified the AU-rich binding factor 1(AUF1), one of the well-known ARE-BPs, was abnormally highly expressed in HCC and the high expression of AUF1 was correlated with poor prognosis of HCC patients. The prognostic value of AUF1 expression was also confirmed in our HBV-related HCC cohorts. Gain and loss of function analyses demonstrated that AUF1 promoted HCC tumorigenesis both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, we found that aldoketo reductase family 1 member B 10(AKR1B10) was a critical target of AUF1 and was essential for sustaining the AUF1-induced proliferation of HCC cells. AUF1 stabilized AKR1B10 mRNA by binding to the 3'UTR region of AKR1B10. Additionally, we confirmed that E2F1 enhanced AUF1 expression in HCC through the transcription level, and in HBV-related HCC, HBx could up-regulate E2F1 expression and promote the expression of AUF1. Our study reveals a novel role of AUF1 in promoting hepatocarcinogenesis via the post-transcriptional regulation of AKR1B10 expression and proposes that the HBx/E2F1/AUF1/AKR1B10 pathway may serve as a potential therapeutic target in HCC.

HBV remodels PP2A complexes to rewire kinase signaling in hepatocellular carcinoma

Project description:Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection promotes liver cancer initiation by inducing inflammation and cellular stress, but its impact in established tumors is not well understood. We used affinity purification mass spectrometry to comprehensively map a network of 145 physical interactions between HBV and human proteins in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A subset of the host factors targeted by HBV proteins are preferentially mutated in non-HB¬V-associated HCC suggesting that their interaction with HBV influences HCC biology. These include proteins involved in mRNA splicing, mitogenic signaling and DNA repair, with the latter set interacting with the HBV oncoprotein X (HBx). We show that HBx remodels the PP2A phosphatase complex by excluding striatin regulatory subunits from the PP2A holoenzyme. We find that HBx effects on PP2A cause Hippo kinase activation, particularly in cells with high striatin levels. In parallel, HBx activates mTOR complex 2 (mTORC2) to prevent YAP degradation. mTORC2 effects on YAP can be observed in human HCC specimens and mouse HCC models and can be targeted with mTOR kinase inhibitors. Thus, HBV interaction with host proteins rewires HCC signaling rather than directly activating mitogenic pathways. These findings provide a new paradigm for the cellular effects of a tumor promoting virus and support a model where HBV may have therapeutic actionable effects on HCC biology.

Wild-type versus HBx-transfected mive

Project description:Hepatitis B virus (HBV) has been clearly recognized as an etiological factor for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HBV encodes the potentially oncogenic HBx protein. We aimed to elucidate the molecular mechanism of HCC caused by HBx and to discover the biomarker related to HCC by HBx. Three experimental groups, 3, 9 and 13 month aged HBx Tg mice and age matched normal wild type B6 mouse which have same background of HBx Tg mice were used to find differentially expressed genes during HCC. Keywords: Genetic modification 3-month-old, 9-month-old, 13-month-old wild type B6 mice vs 3-month-old, 9-month-old, 13-month-old HBx transfected mice; Biological replicates at each timepoint; 9 controls vs 9 HBx-mice

Hepatitis B virus X protein contributes to hepatocellular carcinoma via upregulation of KIAA1429 methyltransferase and mRNA m6A hypermethylation of HSPG2/Perlecan [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) remains to be the most common risk factor of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). While work has primarily focussed on understanding the direct and indirect mechanisms of Hepatitis B virus X protein (HBx) mediated hepatocarcinogenesis, from genetic and epigenetic perspectives, its influence on RNA modification mediated onset of liver malignancies is less well understood. This study explored the role of HBV-encoded HBx in altering the m6A methylome profile and its implications on the pathogenesis of HCC. We established HBx expressing stable HCC cell lines, Huh7-HBx and HepG2-HBx, and explored the transcriptomic and epitranscriptomic profiles by RNA-seq and MeRIP-seq, respectively. Preliminary results suggest that HBx promotes liver cell proliferation, migration, survival and overall m6A methylation in HCC cells and is involved in modulating the extracellular matrix. We show that HBx mediates liver cell transformation by upregulating KIAA1429 methyltransferase. HBx also drives the expression and hypermethylation of the extracellular matrix protein HSPG2/Perlecan and promotes tumourigenesis. Our findings indicate a potential interaction between KIAA1429 and HSPG2, thus could be novel targets in combating HBx-driven HCC and warrants further investigation.

RNA-binding protein AUF1 promotes myogenesis by regulating MEF2C expression levels

Project description:The mammalian RNA-binding protein AUF1 (AU-binding factor 1, also known as heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein D, hnRNP D) binds to numerous mRNAs and influences their post-transcriptional fate. Given that many AUF1 target mRNAs encode muscle-specific factors, we investigated the function of AUF1 in skeletal muscle differentiation. In mouse C2C12 myocytes, where AUF1 levels rise at the onset of myogenesis and remain elevated throughout myocyte differentiation into myotubes, RIP (RNP immunoprecipitation) analysis indicated that AUF1 binds prominently to Mef2c (myocyte enhancer factor 2c) mRNA, which encodes the key myogenic transcription factor Mef2c. By performing mRNA half-life measurements and polysome distribution analysis, we found that AUF1 associated with the 3’UTR of Mef2c mRNA and promoted Mef2c translation without affecting Mef2c mRNA stability. In addition, AUF1 promoted Mef2c gene transcription via a lesser-known role of AUF1 in transcriptional regulation. Importantly, lowering AUF1 delayed myogenesis, while ectopically restoring Mef2c expression levels partially rescued the impairment of myogenesis seen after reducing AUF1 levels. We propose that Mef2c is a key effector of the myogenesis program promoted by AUF1.

WT and AUF1 KO satellite cell RNA-sequencing

Project description:Following skeletal muscle injury, muscle stem cells (satellite cells) are activated, proliferate, and differentiate to form myofibers. We show that mRNA decay protein AUF1 regulates satellite cell function through targeted degradation of specific mRNAs. AUF1 targets certain mRNAs containing 3 AU-rich elements (AREs) for rapid decay. Auf1-/- (KO) mice undergo accelerated skeletal muscle wasting with age and impaired muscle repair following injury. Satellite cell mRNA analysis and regeneration studies demonstrate that auf1-/- satellite cell self-renewal is impaired due to increased stability and overexpression of ARE-mRNAs. Control of ARE-mRNA decay by AUF1 and potentially other ARE-binding proteins represents a mechanism for adult stem cell regulation and is implicated in human muscle wasting diseases. We report the RNA transcript expression profiles from sorted satellite cells isolated from wild type (WT) and AUF1-null (KO) mice hindlimb muscles

DNA methylome and transcriptome analysis of normal and HBx transgenic mouse liver

Project description:A genome-wide integrated methylome and transcriptome analysis of the early stage of hepatocellular carcinoma development that induced by HBx. The HBV x (HBx) protein, which plays a critical role in the development of HCC, was shown to interact with several epigenetic factors, such as DNMT3A and HDAC1. Most HBx transgenic (TG) mice spontaneously develop HCC at about 1 year of age, providing genetic validation of the oncogenic potential of HBx even in the absence of viral integration and chronic inflammation. Therefore, it would be intriguing to study the regulatory role of HBx in the epigenome and its impact on HCC development. We performed a genome-wide analysis to examine the differences in DNA methylation patterns and RNA transcriptions between cancer and normal liver cells.

Identification of AUF1 target mRNAs

Project description:Regulation of mRNA stability by RNA-protein interactions contributes significantly to quantitative aspects of gene expression. We have identified potential mRNA targets of the AU-rich element binding protein AUF1. Myc-tagged AUF1 p42 was induced in mouse NIH-3T3 cells and RNA-protein complexes isolated using anti-myc tag antibody beads. Bound mRNAs were analyzed with Affymetrix microarrays. We have identified 508 potential target mRNAs that were at least 3-fold enriched compared to control cells without myc-AUF1. 22.3% of the enriched mRNAs had an AU-rich cluster in the ARED Organism database, against 16.3% of non-enriched control mRNAs. The enrichment towards AU-rich elements was also visible by AREScore with an average value of 5.2 in the enriched mRNAs versus 4.2 in the control group. Yet, many mRNAs were enriched without a high ARE score suggesting that AUF1 has a broader binding spectrum than standard AUUUA repeats. AUF1 did not preferentially bind to unstable mRNAs. Still, some enriched mRNAs were highly unstable, as those of TNFSF11 (known as RANKL), KLF10, HES1, CCNT2, SMAD6, and BCL6. We have mapped some of the instability determinants. HES1 mRNA appeared to have a coding region determinant. Detailed analysis of the RANKL and BCL6 3’UTR revealed for both that full instability required two elements, which are conserved in evolution. In RANKL mRNA both elements are AU-rich and separated by 30 bases, while in BCL6 mRNA one is AU-rich and 60 bases from a non AU-rich element that potentially forms a stem-loop structure.
