NEAT1 repression by MED12 creates chemosensitivity in p53 wild-type breast cancer cells.

ABSTRACT: Breast cancer is often treated with chemotherapy. However, the development of chemoresistance results in treatment failure. Long non-coding RNA nuclear paraspeckle assembly transcript 1 (NEAT1) has been shown to contribute to chemoresistance in breast cancer cells. In studying the transcriptional regulation of NEAT1 using multi-omics approaches, we showed that NEAT1 is up-regulated by 5-fluorouracil in breast cancer cells with wild-type cellular tumor antigen p53 but not in mutant-p53-expressing breast cancer cells. The regulation of NEAT1 involves mediator complex subunit 12 (MED12)-mediated repression of histone acetylation marks at the promoter region of NEAT1. Knockdown of MED12 but not coactivator-associated arginine methyltransferase 1 (CARM1) induced histone acetylation at the NEAT1
