Project description:N6-methyladenine DNA Modification in Glioblastoma

Project description:In human cells, 5-methylcytosine (5mC) DNA modification plays an important role in gene regulation. However, N6-methyladenine (6mA) DNA modification, which is predominantly present in prokaryotes, is considered to be absent in human genomic DNA. Here, using single molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing on human blood, we show that DNA 6mA modification is extensively present in human genome, accounting for ~0.051% of the total adenines. [G/C]AGG[C/T] was the most significant motif associated with 6mA modification. 6mA sites are enriched in the exon coding regions and are associated with transcriptional activation. DNA N6-methyladenine and N6-demethyladenine modification in human are mediated by methyltransferase N6AMT1 and demethylase ALKBH1, respectively. The 6mA abundance is significantly lower in cancer tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues, which is accompanied with decreased N6AMT1 and increased ALKBH1 levels. Decrease of 6mA modification level stimulated tumorigenesis in human. Collectively, our results demonstrate that 6mA DNA modification is present in human tissues, and we describe a potential role of the N6AMT1/ALKBH1-6mA regulatory axis in the progression of human cancer.

Project description:Genetic drivers of cancer can be dysregulated through epigenetic modifications of DNA. While the critical role of DNA 5-methylcytosine (5mC) in the regulation of transcription is recognized, the functions of other non-canonical DNA modifications remain obscure. Here, we report the identification of novel N(6)-methyladenine (N6-mA) DNA modifications in human tissues and implicate this epigenetic regulation in human disease, the highly malignant brain cancer, glioblastoma. Glioblastoma upregulates N6-mA levels, which co-localize with heterochromatic histone modifications, namely H3K9me3. N6-mA levels are dynamically regulated by the DNA demethylase, ALKBH1, to transcriptionally silence oncogenic pathways through decreasing chromatin accessibility. Targeting the N6-mA regulator, ALKBH1, in patient-derived human glioblastoma models inhibited tumor cell proliferation and extended survival of tumor-bearing mice, supporting this novel DNA modification as a potential new molecular therapeutic target for glioblastoma. Collectively, our results uncover a novel epigenetic node in cancer through the DNA modification, N6-mA.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Mitochondrial dysfunction is a key factor in the development of atherogenesis. Methyltransferase-like protein 4 (METTL4) mediates N6-deoxyadenosine (6mA) methylation of mammalian mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). However, the role of METTL4-mediated mitoepigenetic regulation in atherosclerosis is still unknown. This study aims to investigate the potential involvement of METTL4 in atherosclerosis, explore the underlying mechanism, and develop targeted strategies for treating atherosclerosis. METHODS: Expression levels of mtDNA 6mA and METTL4 were determined in atherosclerotic lesions. We explored the mechanism of METTL4 involvement in atherosclerosis using Mettl4Mac-KO-Apoe-/- and Mettl4MUT-Apoe-/- mice and cell models, as well as bone marrow transplantation. Natural compound libraries were screened to identify potent METTL4 antagonists. In addition, bioinspired proteolysis-targeting (PROTAC) technology targeting macrophages within plaques was used to increase the efficacy of the METTL4 antagonist. RESULTS: The expression levels of mtDNA 6mA and METTL4 were significantly increased in plaque macrophages. Mettl4Mac-KO-Apoe-/- mice displayed suppressed mtDNA 6mA levels and atherosclerotic progression, which were reversed by METTL4 restoration via bone marrow transplantation (n = 6). Mechanistically, elevated METTL4 expression reduces MT-ATP6 expression by suppressing its transcription, thereby impairing the activity of mitochondrial respiration chain complex V. This disruption leads to the accumulation of excess protons in the mitochondrial intermembrane space, causing mitochondrial dysfunction. Consequently, mtDNA is released into the cytoplasm, ultimately triggering inflammasome activation. All results were reversed by the mutation in the METTL4 methyltransferase active site. Mettl4MUT-Apoe-/- mice showed suppressed mtDNA 6mA levels and atherosclerotic progression, and repaired mitochondrial function of macrophage, which were reversed by METTL4 restoration via bone marrow transplantation (n = 6). Pemetrexed (PEM) was identified as the first METTL4 antagonist to effectively alleviate atherosclerotic progression. Furthermore, we generated a proteolysis-targeting chimera drug based on PEM (PROTAC-PEM) that specifically targeting METTL4 in macrophages within plaques, showing a promising therapeutic effect on atherosclerosis. CONCLUSIONS: This study revealed a novel mechanism by which mtDNA 6mA orchestrated mitochondrial function-related gene expression in macrophages, thereby promoting atherosclerosis. Through various experimental techniques, such as gene manipulation, pharmacological inhibition and PROTAC, this study demonstrated that mtDNA 6mA and its specific enzyme METTL4 hold potential as therapeutic targets for atherosclerosis.
