Tumor Suppressive Role of MUC6 in Wilms Tumor via Autophagy-Dependent β-Catenin Degradation.

ABSTRACT: Wilms tumor is the most common renal malignancy in children. Known gene mutations account for about 40% of all wilms tumor cases, but the full map of genetic mutations in wilms tumor is far from clear. Whole genome sequencing and RNA sequencing were performed in 5 pairs of wilms tumor tissues and adjacent normal tissues to figure out important genetic mutations. Gene knock-down, CRISPR-induced mutations were used to investigate their potential effects in cell lines and in-vivo xenografted model. Mutations in seven novel genes (MUC6, GOLGA6L2, GPRIN2, MDN1, MUC4, OR4L1 and PDE4DIP) occurred in more than one patient. The most prevalent mutation was found in MUC6, which had 7 somatic exonic variants in 4 patients. In addition, TaqMan assay and immunoblot confirmed that MUC6 expression was reduced in WT tissues when compared with control tissues. Moreover, the results of MUC6 knock-down assay and CRISPR-induced MUC6 mutations showed that MUC6 inhibited tumor aggression via autophagy-dependent β-catenin degradation while its mutations attenuated tumor-suppressive effects of MUC6. Seven novel mutated genes (MUC6, GOLGA6L2, GPRIN2, MDN1, MUC4, OR4L1 and PDE4DIP) were found in WT, among which MUC6 was the most prevalent one. MUC6 acted as a tumor suppressive gene through autophagy dependent β-catenin pathway.

Project description:ObjectiveKnowledge of the role of CYP2E1 in hepatocarcinogenesis is largely based on epidemiological and animal studies, with a primary focus on the role of CYP2E1 in metabolic activation of procarcinogens. Few studies have directly assessed the effects of CYP2E1 on HCC malignant phenotypes.MethodsThe expression of CYP2E1 in HCC tissues was determined by qRT-PCR, western blotting and immunohistochemistry. Overexpression of CYP2E1 in HCC cell was achieved by lentivirus transfection. The function of CYP2E1 were detected by CCK-8, wound healing, transwell assays, xenograft models and pulmonary metastasis model. TOP/FOPFlash reporter assay, western blotting, functional rescue experiments, Co-immunoprecipitation and reactive oxygen species detection were conducted to reveal the underlying mechanism of the tumor suppressive role of CYP2E1.ResultsCYP2E1 expression is down-regulated in HCC tissues, and this downregulation was associated with large tumor diameter, vascular invasion, poor differentiation, and shortened patient survival time. Ectopic expression of CYP2E1 inhibits the proliferation, invasion and migration and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition of HCC cells in vitro, and inhibits tumor formation and lung metastasis in nude mice. Mechanistic investigations show that CYP2E1 overexpression significantly inhibited Wnt/β-catenin signaling activity and decreased Dvl2 expression in HCC cells. An increase in Dvl2 expression restored the malignant phenotype of HCC cells. Notably, CYP2E1 promoted the ubiquitin-mediated degradation of Dvl2 by strengthening the interaction between Dvl2 and the E3 ubiquitin ligase KLHL12 in CYP2E1-stable HCC cells. CYP2E1-induced ROS accumulation was a critical upstream event in the Wnt/β-Catenin pathway in CYP2E1-overexpressing HCC cells.ConclusionsThese results provide novel insight into the role of CYP2E1 in HCC and the tumor suppressor role of CYP2E1 can be attributed to its ability to manipulate Wnt/Dvl2/β-catenin pathway via inducing ROS accumulation, which provides a potential target for the prevention and treatment of HCC.
