Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modification is the most common and conserved epigenetic modification in mRNA and has been shown to play important roles in cancer biology. As the m6A reader YTHDF1 has been reported to promote progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), it represents a potential therapeutic target. In this study, we evaluated the clinical significance of YTHDF1 using human HCC samples and found that YTHDF1 was significantly upregulated in HCCs with high stemness scores and was positively associated with recurrence and poor prognosis. Analysis of hepatoma spheroids revealed that YTHDF1 was highly expressed in liver cancer stem cells (CSCs). Stem cell-specific conditional Ythdf1 knock-in (CKI) mice treated with diethylnitrosamine showed elevated tumor burden compared with wild type mice. YTHDF1 promoted CSC renewal and resistance to the multiple tyrosine kinase inhibitors lenvatinib and sorafenib in patient-derived organoids and HCC cell lines, which could be abolished by catalytically inactive mutant YTHDF1. RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing, m6A methylated RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing, ribosome profiling, and RNA sequencing identified NOTCH1 as a direct downstream of YTHDF1. YTHDF1 bound to m6A modified NOTCH1 mRNA to enhance its stability and translation, which led to increased NOTCH1 target genes expression. NOTCH1 overexpression rescued HCC stemness in YTHDF1 deficient cells in vitro and in vivo. Lipid nanoparticles targeting YTHDF1 significantly enhanced the efficacy of lenvatinib and sorafenib in HCC in vivo. Taken together, YTHDF1 drives HCC stemness and drug resistance through a YTHDF1-m6A-NOTCH1 epitranscriptomic axis, and YTHDF1 is a potential therapeutic target for treating HCC.

Project description:Wnt/β-catenin signaling is essential for intestinal stem cell homeostasis and aberrant activation of this signaling leads to tumorigenesis. Here we report a function of YTHDF1, an mRNA m6A reader, in mediating β-catenin hyperactivation. Wnt signaling promotes YTHDF1 expression at the translational level. YTHDF1 is dispensable for normal intestinal development in mice while essential for intestinal regeneration. Ythdf1 knockout reduces the stemness of intestinal stem cells, which blocks Wnt-driven tumorigenesis. Genome-wide analysis identifies a subset of Wnt signaling components regulated by YTHDF1 in an m6A-dependent manner. Moreover, we demonstrate that YTHDF1 promotes the translation of TCF7L2/TCF4 to augment β-catenin activation. Targeting YTHDF1 in the established tumors leads to tumor shrinkage and prolonged survival. Together, our studies uncover YTHDF1 as an integral regulator of Wnt signaling at the translational level during intestinal tumorigenesis, which might serve as a promising target for colorectal cancer therapy.

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) governs the fate of RNAs through m6A readers. Colorectal cancer (CRC) exhibits aberrant m6A modifications and expression of m6A regulators. However, little is known about how m6A readers interpret oncogenic m6A methylome for malignant transformation. m6A reader YTHDF1 was overexpressed by copy number gain/amplification in majority of CRCs. YTHDF1 high expression and CNVs predict increased risk of CRC relapse. Transcriptome profiles of YTHDF1-high tumors exhibit highly metastatic features. YTHDF1 promoted CRC tumor cell and organoid proliferation and enhanced metastasis. Ythdf1 knockout dampened tumor growth in carcinogen-induced CRC model. Through multiomic integration, RhoA activator ARHGEF2 was characterized as the key functional YTHDF1 target based on its m6A and YTHDF1-binding signal, translation efficiency changes, protein correlations with YTHDF1 in clinical samples, and disrupted RhoA features by YTHDF1 knockdown. Moreover, YTHDF1-ARHGEF2 co-regulation was observed in YTHDF1-overexpressing metastatic sites and carcinogen-induced Ythdf1-null CRC tumors. ARHGEF2 overexpression significantly rescued RhoA signaling, tumor cell survival and invasiveness impaired by YTHDF1 knockdown both in vitro and in vivo, further confirming the essential function of ARHGEF2.

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant internal messenger (mRNA) modification in mammalian mRNA. This modification is reversible and non-stoichiometric, which potentially adds an additional layer of variety and dynamic control of mRNA metabolism. The m6A-modified mRNA can be selectively recognized by the YTH family “reader” proteins. The preferential binding of m6A-containing mRNA by YTHDF2 is known to reduce the stability of the target transcripts; however, the exact effects of m6A on translation has yet to be elucidated. Here we show that another m6A reader protein, YTHDF1, promotes ribosome loading of its target transcripts. YTHDF1 forms a complex with translation initiation factors to elevate the translation efficiency of its bound mRNA. In a unified mechanism of translation control through m6A, the YTHDF2-mediated decay controls the lifetime of target transcripts; whereas, the YTHDF1-based translation promotion increases the translation efficiency to ensure effective protein production from relatively short-lived transcripts that are marked by m6A. PAR-CLIP and RIP was used to identify YTHDF1 binding sites followed by ribosome profling and RNA seq to assess the consequences of YTHDF1 siRNA knock-down

Project description:The N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant internal modification in almost all eukaryotic messenger RNAs, and is dynamically regulated. Therefore, identification of m6A readers is especially important in determining the cellular function of m6A. YTHDF2 has recently been characterized as the first m6A reader that regulates the cytoplasmic stability of methylated RNA. Here we show that YTHDC1 is a nuclear m6A reader and report the crystal structure of the YTH domain of YTHDC1 bound to m6A-containing RNA. We further determined the structure of another YTH domain, YTHDF1, and found that the YTH domain utilizes a conserved aromatic cage to specifically recognize the methyl group of m6A. Our structural characterizations of the YTHDC1-m6A RNA complex also shed light on the molecular basis for the preferential binding of the GG(m6A)C sequence by YTHDC1 and confirm the YTH domain as a specific m6A RNA reader. PAR-CLIP (Photoactivatable-Ribonucleoside-Enhanced Crosslinking and Immunoprecipitation) was applied to human YTHDC1 protein to identify its binding sites.

Project description:The recently described role of RNA methylation in regulating immune cell infiltration into tumors has attracted interest, given its potential impact on immunotherapy response. YTHDF1 is a versatile and powerful m6A reader, but the understanding of its impact on immune evasion is limited. Here, we performed proteomics to reveal the altered proteins between wildtype and YTHDF1 knockout group.

Project description:To identify the target mRNAs of the m6A reader protein YTHDF1 and YTHDF2, we carired out anti YTHDF1 and anti YTHDF2 RNA Immunoprecipitation (RIP) followed by RNA-sequencencing. Using EZ-Magna RIP™ RNA-Binding Protein Immunoprecipitation Kit (Millipore), RNA from P6-P8 wild type mouse cerebellum was pulled down by rabbit polyclonal anti-YTHDF1 (proteintech) or polyclonal anti-YTHDF2 (proteintech) and then sequenced on Illumina HiSeq3000 platform. The filtered reads were mapped to the mouse reference genome (GRCm38) using STAR v2.5 with default parameters. The resulting bam files were fed to HTSeq tool to count the number of RNA-seq reads, which was further normalized to calculate FPKM. To determine which gene is enriched, we computed the FPKM from RIP elute to input and any fold change greater than 2 was considered enriched. Finally, Biological replicates of anti-YTHDF1 RIP-Seq and anti-YTHDF2 RIP-Seq identified 506 and 596 mRNAs transcripts, respectively. This study provides gene lists which shows mRNA binding with YTHDF1 and YTHDF2 in mouse cerebellum.

Project description:Polycomb repressive complexes( PRCs) play critical role in cell fate decisions during normal development as well as disease progression through mediate histone modifications such as H3K27me3 and H2AK119ub. How exactly PRCs recruited to chromatin remains to be fully illuminated. Here, we report that YTHDF1, a N6-methyladenine (m6A) RNA reader previously known being mainly cytoplasmic, associates with RNF2, a PRC1 protein that mediates H2AK119ub in human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). Specifically, a portion of YTHDF1 localizes in the nuclei and associates with RNF2/ H2AK119ub on a subset of gene loci related to neural development functions. Knock-down YTHDF1 attenuates H2AK119ub modification on these genes and promotes neural differentiation in hESCs. Our findings provide another non-canonical mechanism of YTHDF1 to participate in PRC1 mediated chromatin modification in hESCs.
