A novel function of HRP-3 in regulating cell cycle progression via the HDAC-E2F1-Cyclin E pathway in lung cancer.

ABSTRACT: To improve the poor survival rate of lung cancer patients, we investigated the role of HDGF-related protein 3 (HRP-3) as a potential biomarker for lung cancer. The expression of endogenous HRP-3 in human lung cancer tissues and xenograft tumor models is indicative of its clinical relevance in lung cancer. Additionally, we demonstrated that HRP-3 directly binds to the E2F1 promoter on chromatin. Interestingly, HRP-3 depletion in A549 cells impedes the binding of HRP-3 to the E2F1 promoter; this in turn hampers the interaction between Histone H3/H4 and HDAC1/2 on the E2F1 promoter, while concomitantly inducing Histone H3/H4 acetylation around the E2F1 promoter. The enhanced Histone H3/H4 acetylation on the E2F1 promoter through HRP-3 depletion increases the transcription level of E2F1. Furth
