EZH2 T367 phosphorylation activates p38 signaling through lysine methylation to promote breast cancer progression.

Project description:Triple-negative breast cancers (TNBCs) are frequently poorly differentiated with high propensity for metastasis. Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) is the lysine methyltransferase of polycomb repressive complex 2 that mediates transcriptional repression in normal cells and in cancer through H3K27me3. However, H3K27me3-independent non-canonical functions of EZH2 are incompletely understood. We reported that EZH2 phosphorylation at T367 by p38α induces TNBC metastasis in an H3K27me3-independent manner. Here, we show that cytosolic EZH2 methylates p38α at lysine 139 and 165 leading to enhanced p38α stability and that p38 methylation and activation require T367 phosphorylation of EZH2. Dual inhibition of EZH2 methyltransferase and p38 kinase activities downregulates pEZH2-T367, H3K27me3, and p-p38 pathways in vivo and reduces TNBC growth and metastasis. These data uncover a cooperation between EZH2 canonical and non-canonical mechanisms and suggest that inhibition of these pathways may be a potential therapeutic strategy.

p38-mediated phosphorylation at T367 induces EZH2 cytoplasmic localization to promote breast cancer metastasis.

Project description:Overexpression of EZH2 in estrogen receptor negative (ER-) breast cancer promotes metastasis. EZH2 has been mainly studied as the catalytic component of the Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) that mediates gene repression by trimethylating histone H3 at lysine 27 (H3K27me3). However, how EZH2 drives metastasis despite the low H3K27me3 levels observed in ER- breast cancer is unknown. Here we show that in human invasive carcinomas and distant metastases, cytoplasmic EZH2 phosphorylated at T367 is significantly associated with ER- disease and low H3K27me3 levels. p38-mediated EZH2 phosphorylation at T367 promotes EZH2 cytoplasmic localization and potentiates EZH2 binding to vinculin and other cytoskeletal regulators of cell migration and invasion. Ectopic expression of a phospho-deficient T367A-EZH2 mutant is sufficient to inhibit EZH2 cytoplasmic expression, disrupt binding to cytoskeletal regulators, and reduce EZH2-mediated adhesion, migration, invasion, and development of spontaneous metastasis. These results point to a PRC2-independent non-canonical mechanism of EZH2 pro-metastatic function.

Hypoxia Activates Notch4 via ERK/JNK/P38 MAPK Signaling Pathways to Promote Lung Adenocarcinoma Progression and Metastasis.

Project description:Hypoxia contributes to the progression and metastasis of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). However, the specific underlying molecular mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Here we report that Notch4 is upregulated in lung tissue from lung cancer patients. Functionally, Hypoxia activates the expressions of Delta-like 4 and Notch4, resulting in the excessive proliferation and migration of LUAD cells as well as apoptotic resistance. Notch4 silencing reduced ERK, JNK, and P38 activation. Meanwhile, Notch4 overexpression enhanced ERK, JNK, and P38 activation in LUAD cells. Furthermore, Notch4 exerted pro-proliferation, anti-apoptosis and pro-migration effects on LUAD cells that were partly reversed by the inhibitors of ERK, JNK, and p38. The binding interaction between Notch4 and ERK/JNK/P38 were confirmed by the co-immunoprecipitation assay. In vivo study revealed that Notch4 played a key role in the growth and metastasis of LUAD using two xenograft models. This study demonstrates that hypoxia activates Notch4-ERK/JNK/P38 MAPK signaling pathways to promote LUAD cell progression and metastasis.

Anisomycin Activates Utrophin Upregulation Through a p38 Signaling Pathway.

Project description:Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a recessive X-linked disease characterized by progressive muscle wasting; cardiac or respiratory failure causes death in most patients by the third decade. The disease is caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene that lead to a loss of functional dystrophin protein. Although there are currently few treatments for Duchenne muscular dystrophy, previous reports have shown that upregulating the dystrophin paralog utrophin in Duchenne muscular dystrophy mouse models is a promising therapeutic strategy. We conducted in silico mining of the Connectivity Map database for utrophin-inducing agents, identifying the p38-activating antibiotic anisomycin. Treatments of C2C12, undifferentiated murine myoblasts, and mdx primary myoblasts with anisomycin conferred increases in utrophin protein levels through p38 pathway activation. Anisomycin also induced utrophin protein levels in the diaphragm of mdx mice. Our study shows that repositioning small molecules such as anisomycin may prove to have Duchenne muscular dystrophy clinical utility.

EZH2 inhibition decreases p38 signaling and suppresses breast cancer motility and metastasis.

Project description:EZH2 is a Polycomb group protein that exerts oncogenic functions in breast cancer, where its overexpression is associated with metastatic disease. While it reportedly acts a transcriptional repressor through trimethylation of histone H3 at lysine 27, EZH2 may exhibit context-dependent activating functions. Despite associations with worse outcome and metastasis in breast cancer, a functional role of EZH2 in breast cancer metastasis in vivo has not been demonstrated. Furthermore, whether EZH2 regulates cancer cell phenotype and motility are unknown. In this study, we discovered that knockdown of EZH2 induces a phenotypic reprogramming from mesenchymal to epithelial, reduces motility, and blocks invasion in breast cancer cell lines. In vivo, EZH2 downregulation in MDA-MB-231 cells decreases spontaneous metastasis to the lungs. We uncover an unexpected role of EZH2 in inducing the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway, an important regulator of breast cancer invasion and metastasis. In breast cancer cells, EZH2 binds to phosphorylated p38 (p-p38) in association with other core members of the Polycomb repressive complex 2, EED, and SUZ12, and EZH2 overexpression leads to increased levels of p-p38 and of activated, downstream pathway proteins. The effect on p-p38 was confirmed in vivo, where it correlated with decreased spontaneous metastasis. In clinical specimens of matched primary and invasive breast carcinomas, we found that EZH2 expression was upregulated in 100 % of the metastases, and that EZH2 and p-p38 were coexpressed in 63 % of cases, consistent with the functional results. Together our findings reveal a new mechanism by which EZH2 functions in breast cancer, and provide direct evidence that EZH2 inhibition reduces breast cancer metastasis in vivo.
