Cytoplasmic overexpression of RNA-binding protein HuR in meningioma is a marker of poor prognosis and specific HuR knockdown decreases meningioma cell growth and resistance to hypoxia

ABSTRACT: HuR is known to regulate mRNA stability and translatability in cytoplasm. In several human tumors, the level of HuR expression has been shown to correlate with poor disease outcome. In meningioma, however, the prognostic value and the potential pro-oncogenic properties of HuR remain obscure. To clarify these, transcriptome-wide analyses in IOMM-Lee cells were performed to pinpoint the detailed molecular consequences of HuR knockdown. In IOMM-Lee cells, transcriptomic analyses revealed that HuR knockdown deregulated the signaling pathway of HIF1A and upregulated the expression of genes for cytoplasmic mRNA processing body assembly, poly(A)-specific ribonuclease activity, positive regulation of apoptosis, negative regulation of RNA splicing, global genome nucleotide-excision repair, and positive regulation of cell cycle arrest. Interestingly, HuR knockdown under hypoxic culture condition potentiated further the effects of HuR knockdown on cell growth, apoptosis, and HIF1A expression.

Project description:IL-20 cytokines are involved in the establishment of psoriasis, a common chronic skin inflammation epidemiologically associated with metabolic syndrome, but molecular mechanisms underlying their over-expression remain to be elucidated. We find that keratinocytes (KCs) expressed IL-20 and lymphocytes expressed IL-22 cytokines up-regulation occurs at post-transcriptional level with stabilization of their RNA messengers. Looking at psoriatic epidermis, we observe that the p38/MK2 pathway is not activated but that the RNA-binding protein (RBP) HuR re-localizes in keratinocytes cytoplasm, suggesting post-transcriptional regulation of numerous mRNAs. HuR ribonucleoprotein immunoprecipitations analyzed by high-throughput sequencing (RIP-Seq) identify potential pre-mature and mature RNA targets for uninvolved and involved skin and confirms that HuR activity is displaced from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Numerous psoriasis up-regulated transcripts are HuR targets and HuR knockdown reduces expression of transcripts like beta-defensin-2, CXCL-10 or IL-2, suggesting an implication of HuR in pathophysiological processes such as morphological, immune and metabolic inflammatory responses. Finally, metabolic disorders affecting psoriatic keratinocytes are responsible for HuR cytoplasmic localization since a decreased activity of the cellular metabolic sensor AMPK, that is observed in human psoriatic epidermis, is sufficient to promote HuR cytosolic localization as well as IL-20 over-production both in human keratinocytes and in vivo in mouse epidermis where it then initiates psoriasis-like histological changes. These results may provide insights into molecular links between metabolism and post-transcriptional networks during chronic inflammation, as illustrated in psoriasis by mechanisms connecting AMPK, HuR and IL-20. Analysis of HuR-binding RNA in uninvolved versus involved psoriatic samples by RIP-Seq. Samples from five different patients were used for both uninvolved and involved skin. RIP-Seq was also made using a control IgG.
