Ring finger protein 19A is overexpressed in non-small cell lung cancer and mediates p53 ubiquitin-degradation to promote cancer growth.

ABSTRACT: The expression pattern, biological functions and the related mechanisms of the ring finger protein 19A (RNF19A) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain poorly understood. This study aimed to explore the role of RNF19A, as well as the underlying potential mechanism, in the development of NSCLC. Here, we found that RNF19A was overexpressed in NSCLC tissues, and RNF19A expression in NSCLC tissue samples was associated with NSCLC carcinogenesis and poor outcome. RNF19A promoted the proliferation of NSCLC cells and inhibited apoptosis. RNF19A reduced p53, p21 and BAX expression and induced Cyclin D1, CDK4, CDK6 and BCL2 expression. The inhibitory effect of RNF19A knockdown on proliferation was partially rescued by p53 silencing. RNF19A interacted with p53, shortened p53 half-life and mediated p53 ubiquitin-degradation. Collectively, we suggest that RNF19A plays a critical oncogenic role in lung carcinogenesis by disrupting the function of p53. RNF19A may serve as a new biomarker and/or target for NSCLC management.

Project description:BackgroundMNAT1 (menage a trois 1, MAT1), a cyclin-dependent kinase-activating kinase (CAK) complex, high expresses in various cancers and is involved in cancer pathogenesis. However, mechanisms underlying its regulation in carcinogenesis are unclear.MethodsThe tissue microarray of colorectal cancer (CRC) was used to evaluate MNAT1 expressions in CRC tissues using immunohistochemistry, CRC cell lines were also detected MNAT1 expression using Western-blotting. MNAT1 and shMNAT1 vectors were constructed, and transfected into CRC cells. Cell growths of the transfected cells were observed using MTT and colony formation. The affects of MNAT1 on p53 expression were analyzed using Western-blotting and Real-time PCR. Immunoprecipitation assay was used to analyze the interaction p53 and MNAT1, and Western-blotting was used to test the effects of MNAT1 on p53 downstream molecules. The apoptosis of CRC cells with MNAT1 or shMNAT1 were analyzed using flow cytometry. BABL/c athymic nude mice were used to observe the effect of MNAT1 on CRC cell growth in vivo.ResultsMNAT1 was found to be overexpressed in CRC tissues and cells, and MNAT1 expressions in CRC tissue samples were associated with CRC carcinogenesis and poor patient outcomes. MNAT1-knockin increased CRC cell growth and colony formation, and MNAT1-knockdown dramatically decreased cell motility and invasion. MNAT1 physically interacted with p53, MNAT1 also increased the interaction of MDM2 with p53. Strikingly, MNAT1 mediated p53 ubiquitin-degradation. MNAT1 shortened p53 half-life, and ectopic MNAT1 expression decreased p53 protein stability. Moreover, MNAT1 induced RAD51 and reduced p21, cleaved-caspase3, cleaved-PARP and BAX expression. MNAT1 inhibited CRC cell apoptosis. shMANT1 decreased tumor growths in nude mice following p53 increase.ConclusionMNAT1 binds to p53, mediates p53 ubiquitin-degradation through MDM2, increases cell growth and decreases cell apoptosis, and finally promotes CRC malignance. MNAT1 binding to p53 and mediating p53 ubiquitin-degradation axis represents a novel molecular joint in the p53 pathway.

Project description:Molecule interacting with CasL2 (MICAL2), a microtubule-associated monooxygenase, is highly expressed in various cancers and is involved in cancer pathogenesis, but the mechanisms underlying its regulation in carcinogenesis are unclear. In this study, we aim to clarify the mechanism by which MICAL2 participates in colorectal cancer (CRC) and identify novel markers for predicting prognosis of CRC patients. Methods: The value of MICAL2 in CRC prognosis was determined by immunohistochemical analysis of a CRC biopsy array. A short hairpin RNA target MICAL2 (shMICAL2) was designed to knock down MICAL2 expression and observe MICAL2's function on CRC cell growth. mRNA expression array was used to screen target molecules of MICAL2. HCT116 p53+/+ and HCT116 p53-/- cells were used to confirm whether MICAL2 exerts its oncogenic effect through p53. The in vivo effect of MICAL2 on CRC growth was assessed by subcutaneously injecting MICAL2-knockout CRC cells into the dorsal flank of each mouse. Immunofluorescence was used to observe the effect of MICAL2 on p53 cellular location. Reverse-phase nano ESI-LCMS analysis was used to investigate if MICAL2 mediates p53 oxidation. Results: MICAL2 was found to be highly expressed in CRC tissues, and its expression was associated with CRC carcinogenesis and poor patient outcome. MICAL2-knockdown decreased growth and colony formation of CRC cells, which was linked with cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. MICAL2 physically interacted with p53 and retained p53 in the cytoplasm. MICAL2 shortened the half-life of p53, and ectopic MICAL2 expression decreased p53 protein stability through ubiquitin degradation. MICAL2 was also found to oxidize p53 at methionine 40 and 160, which mediated p53 ubiquitin degradation. MICAL2-promoted CRC growth in vivo was confirmed in nude mice. Conclusion: MICAL2 binds to p53, retains p53 in the cytoplasm and oxidizes it at Met 40 and 160, promotes p53 ubiquitination, and decreases p53 function. MICAL2-reduced p53 promotes CRC development.
