Project description:Nuclear receptors are important conduits between environmental cues and gene expression, but the molecular events governing spatial variation in their responses remain poorly understood. Here we outline an important role for a non-coding RNA in modulating the cell type-specific actions of the cholesterol-activated nuclear receptor LXR. LXR regulates the expression of genes involved in responses to excess cholesterol and has been causally linked to the pathogenesis and treatment of prevention and atherosclerosis in animals. We identify the lncRNA MeXis as an amplifier of LXR-dependent transcription of the critical cholesterol efflux gene Abca1. MeXis interacts with and guides the promoter binding of the nuclear receptor transcriptional coactivator DDX17. Loss of MeXis in murine immune cells has a marked impact on chromosome architecture at the Abca1 locus, impairs cellular responses to cholesterol overload, and accelerates the development of atherosclerosis. Our findings define MeXis as a lncRNA gatekeeper that modifies the actions of LXR in lipid-dependent control of macrophage gene expression. This has important implications for mechanisms that underlie spatial activation patterns of nuclear receptors. Our work opens a new gateway to targeting reverse cholesterol transport since it is conceivable that therapeutic approaches that enhance MeXis activity might reduce foam cell formation and atherogenesis.

Project description:Enhancer RNAs (eRNAs) are emerging as powerful regulators of various biological processes, but the underlying epigenetic regulatory mechanisms of these molecules in cholesterol homeostasis remain elusive. Using an integrated genomic screen, we identified an intragenic super-enhancer derived long noncoding RNA embedded in the ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) gene, named ABCA1-seRNA, which is required for activation of RXRα/LXR mediated gene expression. Deficiency of ABCA1-seRNA abolished cholesterol efflux, promotes Macrophage Inflammation, and that haven been causally Susceptibility to Coronary heart disease. Mechanistically, ABCA1-seRNA affects cholesterol efflux by interaction with MED23 and recruitment RXR and LXR to mediate ABCA1 transcription in cis. Furthermore, ABCA1-seRNA repression inflammatory response and attenuated macrophage M1 polarization and migration through ubiquitination of a NF-B subunit P65. Our results suggest that super-enhancer derived long noncoding RNA, as a novel Epigenetic Regulator, are critical components to maintain cholesterol homeostasis and inflammation restriction, represent an attractive therapeutic target to reduce Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD).

Project description:Nuclear receptors regulate gene expression in response to environmental cues, but the molecular events governing the cell type specificity of nuclear receptors remain poorly understood. Here we outline a role for a long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) in modulating the cell type-specific actions of liver X receptors (LXRs), sterol-activated nuclear receptors that regulate the expression of genes involved in cholesterol homeostasis and that have been causally linked to the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. We identify the lncRNA MeXis as an amplifier of LXR-dependent transcription of the gene Abca1, which is critical for regulation of cholesterol efflux. Mice lacking the MeXis gene show reduced Abca1 expression in a tissue-selective manner. Furthermore, loss of MeXis in mouse bone marrow cells alters chromosome architecture at the Abca1 locus, impairs cellular responses to cholesterol overload, and accelerates the development of atherosclerosis. Mechanistic studies reveal that MeXis interacts with and guides promoter binding of the transcriptional coactivator DDX17. The identification of MeXis as a lncRNA modulator of LXR-dependent gene expression expands understanding of the mechanisms underlying cell type-selective actions of nuclear receptors in physiology and disease.
