The long isoform of RUNX3 acts as a tumor supressor in human T-cell lymphoma


ABSTRACT: Runt-related transcription factor 3 (RUNX3) has been described as a tumor suppressor for gastric cancer and other solid malignancies. Despite its key role in physiological T-cell differentiation, there is rare information on its relevance for the development of human T-cell lymphoma or leukemia. Here we show that alterations of RUNX3 by either heterozygous deletion or methylation of its distal promoter can be observed in the tumor cells of 15/21 (71%) patients suffering from Sézary Syndrome (SS), an aggressive variant of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. In consequence, mRNA levels of RUNX3/p46, the long isoform of RUNX3 – controlled by the proximal promoter – are significantly lower in SS tumor cells. Re-expression of RUNX3/p46 promotes apoptosis and slows down proliferation in a RUNX3/p46low cell line of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. By this we present the first evidence that RUNX3 can act as a tumor suppressor in a human T-cell malignancy and suggest that this effect is predominantly mediated through the long isoform of this transcription factor, which has not been in the focus of previous studies.
