Negative Regulation of CPSF6 Suppresses the Warburg Effect and Angiogenesis Leading to Tumor Progression Via c-Myc Signaling Network: Potential Therapeutic Target for Liver Cancer Therapy.

ABSTRACT: In this study, we explored the oncogenic mechanism of cleavage and polyadenylation-specific factor 6 (CPSF6) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). CPSF6 was overexpressed in HCC tissues with poor survival rates compared to normal tissues. Hence, CPSF6 depletion suppressed cell viability and colony formation, induced apoptosis via PARP cleavage, and increased the sub-G1 population of Hep3B and Huh7 cells. In addition, CPSF6 enhanced the stability of c-Myc via their binding through nuclear co-localization by binding to c-Myc at the site of 258-360. Furthermore, c-Myc degradation by CPSF6 depletion was disturbed by FBW7 depletion or treatment with the proteasomal inhibitor MG132. Additionally, CPSF6 depletion suppressed the Warburg effect by inhibiting glucose, HK2, PKM2, LDH, and lactate; showe
