Chromatin status under knock-down of SNHG1 in neuroblastoma [ChIP-seq]
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The small nucleolar RNA host gene 1 (SNHG1) is a novel oncogenic long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) aberrantly expressed in different tumor types. We previously found highly expressed SNHG1 was associated with poor prognosis and MYCN status in neuroblastoma (NB). However, the molecular mechanisms of SNHG1 in NB are still unclear. Here, we disrupted endogenous SNHG1 in the MYCN-amplified NB cell line SK-N-BE(2)C using the CRISPR/Cas9 system, and demonstrated the proliferation and colony formation ability of SNHG1-knowndown cells were suppressed. The transcriptome analysis and function assays of SNHG1-knockdown cells revealed SNHG1 was involved in various biological processes including cell growth, migration, apoptosis, cell cycle, and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Interestingly, the expression of core regulatory circuitry (CRC) transcription factors in MYCN-amplified NB, including PHOX2B, HAND2, GATA3, ISL1, TBX1, and MYCN, were decreased in SNHG1-knockdown cells. The chromatin-immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) and transposase-accessible chromatin using sequencing (ATAC-seq) analyses show that chromatin status of these CRC members is altered, which may stem from interactions between SNHG1 and HDAC1/2. These findings demonstrate that SNHG1 plays a crucial role in maintaining NB identity via chromatin regulation and reveal the function of the lncRNA SNHG1 in NB.
