Project description:Acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase 1 (ACAT1) played a key role in regulating gene expression and tumorigenesis. Nevertheless, the biological function of ACAT1 in bladder cancer (BLCA) has yet to be elucidated. This study aimed to elucidate the bioinformatics features and biological functions of ACAT1 in BLCA. Here, we demonstrate for the first time that ACAT1 is elevated in BLCA tissues, correlating with specific clinicopathological features and an unfavorable prognosis for survival in BLCA patients. ACAT1 emerged as an independent risk factor in BLCA. Phenotypically, ACAT1 knockdown inhibited the proliferation and migration of BLCA cells both in vivo and in vitro, whereas ACAT1 overexpression yielded the opposite phenotype. Mechanistically, ACAT1 enhances BLCA cells proliferation by activating cell cycle through AKT/GSK3β/c-Myc signaling pathway. In conclusion, this study identifies ACAT1 as an oncogene in BLCA, demonstrating its capability to promote proliferation and metastasis of BLCA. This suggests that ACAT1 may serve as a potential molecular target for the diagnosis and treatment of BLCA.

Project description:AKT is involved in a number of key cellular processes including cell proliferation, apoptosis and metabolism. Hyperactivation of AKT is associated with many pathological conditions, particularly cancers. Emerging evidence indicates that arginine methylation is involved in modulating AKT signaling pathway. However, whether and how arginine methylation directly regulates AKT kinase activity remain unknown. Here we report that protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5), but not other PRMTs, promotes AKT activation by catalyzing symmetric dimethylation of AKT1 at arginine 391 (R391). Mechanistically, AKT1-R391 methylation cooperates with phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5 trisphosphate (PIP3) to relieve the pleckstrin homology (PH)-in conformation, leading to AKT1 membrane translocation and subsequent activation by phosphoinositide-dependent kinase-1 (PDK1) and the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 2 (mTORC2). As a result, deficiency in AKT1-R391 methylation significantly suppresses AKT1 kinase activity and tumorigenesis. Lastly, we show that PRMT5 inhibitor synergizes with AKT inhibitor or chemotherapeutic drugs to enhance cell death. Altogether, our study suggests that R391 methylation is an important step for AKT activation and its oncogenic function.

Project description:AKT signaling pathway plays critical roles in the resolution of inflammation. However, the underlying mechanisms of anti-inflammatory regulation and signal coordination remain unclear. Here, we report that anti-inflammatory AKT signaling is coordinated by glutamyl-prolyl-tRNA synthetase 1 (EPRS1). Upon inflammatory activation, AKT specifically phosphorylated Ser999 of EPRS1 in the cytoplasmic multi-tRNA synthetase complex, inducing release of EPRS1. The EPRS1 compartmentalized AKT to early endosomes via selective binding to the endosomal membrane lipid phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate and assembled an AKT signaling complex specific for anti-inflammatory activity. These events promoted AKT activation-mediated GSK3β phosphorylation, which increased anti-inflammatory cytokine production. EPRS1-deficient macrophages could not assemble the early endosomal complex and consequently exacerbated inflammation, decreasing the survival of EPRS1-deficient mice undergoing septic shock and ulcerative colitis. Collectively, our findings show that the housekeeping protein EPRS1 acts as a mediator of inflammatory homeostasis by coordinating compartment-specific AKT signaling

Project description:Background & Aims: Extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a pivotal role in connecting tumor cells and their local and distant microenvironment. Here, we aimed to understand the role and molecular basis of patient-derived EVs in modulating cancer stemness and tumorigenesis in the context of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods: EVs were isolated, quantified and characterized from patients’ sera. EVs were tested vigorously, both in vitro and in vivo, by various functional assays. Proteomic analysis was performed to identify the functional components of EVs. The expression level of polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR) in circulating EVs, tumor and non-tumorous tissues of HCC patients was determined by ELISA, immunoblotting, immunohistochemistry and quantitative PCR. The functional role and underlying mechanism of EVs with an enhanced pIgR expression was elucidated. Blockage of EV-pIgR with neutralizing antibody was performed in nude mice implanted with patient-derived tumor xenograft (PDTX). Results: Circulating EVs of late-stage HCC (L-HCC) patient had significantly elevated pIgR expression when compared to the EVs released by control individuals. The augmenting effect of L-HCC patient in cancer stemness and tumorigenesis was hindered by anti-pIgR antibody. EVs enriched with pIgR consistently promoted cancer stemness and cancerous phenotypes in the recipient cells. Mechanistically, EV-pIgR-induced cancer aggressiveness was abrogated by Akt and β-catenin inhibitors, ascertaining the role of EV-pIgR through the activation of PDK1/Akt/GSK3β/β-catenin signaling axis. Furthermore, anti-pIgR neutralizing antibody attenuated the tumor growth in mice implanted with PDTX. Conclusion: The study illustrates an unrevealed role of EV-pIgR in regulating cancer stemness and aggressiveness, in which EV-pIgR activates PDK1/Akt/GSK3β/β-catenin signaling cascades. The blockage of intercellular communications mediated by EV-pIgR in the tumor microenvironment may provide a new therapeutic strategy for cancer patients.

Project description:Mutations in the core RNA splicing factor SF3B1 are prevalent in leukemias and uveal melanoma, but also recurrent in epithelial malignancies such as breast cancer. Whereas hotspot mutations in SF3B1 alter hematopoietic differentiation, whether SF3B1 mutations contribute to epithelial cancer development and progression is unknown. Here, we identify that SF3B1 mutations in mammary epithelial and breast cancer cells induce a recurrent pattern of aberrant splicing leading to activation of AKT and NF-kB, enhanced cell migration, and accelerated tumorigenesis. Transcriptomic analysis of human cancer specimens, MMTV-cre Sf3b1K700E/WT mice, and isogenic mutant cell lines identified hundreds of aberrant 3’ splice sites induced by mutant SF3B1, a portion of which were breast-specific. Across mouse and human tumors, mutant SF3B1 promoted aberrant splicing (dependent on aberrant branchpoints as well as pyrimidines downstream of the aberrant branchpoint) and consequent suppression of PPP2R5A and MAP3K7, critical negative regulators of AKT and NF-kB. Coordinate activation of NF-kB and AKT signaling was observed in the knock-in models, leading to accelerated cell migration and tumor development in combination with mutant PIK3CA but also hypersensitizing cells to AKT kinase inhibitors. These data identify mutations in SF3B1 as drivers of breast tumorigenesis and reveal unique vulnerabilities in cancers harboring them.

Project description:Emerging evidence has shown that GSK3β plays oncogenic roles in multiple tumour types; however, the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. Here, we show that nuclear GSK3β is responsible for the accumulation of the histone demethylase KDM1A and critically regulates histone H3K4 methylation during tumorigenesis. GSK3β phosphorylates KDM1A Ser683 upon priming phosphorylation of KDM1A Ser687 by CK1α. Phosphorylation of KDM1A induces its binding with and deubiquitylation by USP22, leading to KDM1A stabilization. GSK3β- and USP22-dependent KDM1A stabilization is required for the demethylation of histone H3K4, thereby repressing BMP2, CDKN1A and GATA6 transcription, which results in cancer stem cell self-renewal and glioblastoma tumorigenesis. In human glioblastoma specimens, KDM1A levels are correlated with nuclear GSK3β and USP22 levels. Furthermore, a GSK3 inhibitor, tideglusib, sensitizes tumour xenografts to chemotherapy in mice via KDM1A downregulation and improves survival. Our findings demonstrate that nuclear GSK3β- and USP22-mediated KDM1A stabilization is essential for glioblastoma tumorigenesis.
