CPEB1, a histone-modified hypomethylated gene, is regulated by miR-101 and involved in cell senescence in glioma.

ABSTRACT: Epigenetic mechanisms have important roles in carcinogenesis. We certified that the mRNA translation-related gene cytoplasmic polyadenylation element-binding protein 1 (CPEB1) is hypomethylated and overexpressed in glioma cells and tissues. The knockdown of CPEB1 reduced cell senescence by regulating the expression or distribution of p53 in glioma cells. CPEB1 is also regulated directly by the tumor suppressor miR-101, a potential marker of glioma. It is known that the histone methyltransferase enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) and embryonic ectoderm development (EED) are direct targets of miR-101. We demonstrated that miR-101 downregulated the expression of CPEB1 through reversing the methylation status of the CPEB1 promoter by regulating the presence on the promoter of the methylation-related histones H3K4me2, H3K27me3, H3K9me3 and H4K20me3. The epigenetic regulation of H3K27me3 on CPEB1 promoter is mediated by EZH2 and EED. EZH2 has a role in the regulation of H3K4me2. Furthermore, the downregulation of CPEB1 induced senescence in a p53-dependent manner.

Project description:BackgroundSPRY4-IT1 (SPRY4 intronic transcript 1) is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that has been identified as a novel oncogene in various cancers, including glioma. However, its function and underlying mechanism in glioma remain largely unclear. Here, we investigated the role of SPRY4-IT1 in the development of glioma and its underlying mechanism.MethodsBioinformatics analysis and RT-qPCR assay were used to examine the expression of SPRY4-IT1 in glioma tissues. The CCK-8, EdU, and Xenograft tumor assays wereperformed to assess the proliferation effect of glioma cells. The tube forming assay and Chick Embryo Chorioallantoic Membrane (CAM) assay were conducted to detect the angiogenesis effect of HUVECs. RNA-sequencing, western blotting, RT-qPCR, ELISA, and IHC assays were employed to verify the regulatory mechanism of the SPRY4-IT1/ miR-101-3p/EZH2/VEGFA axis.ResultsAnalysis of the TCGA dataset and data from our own cohort demonstrated that SPRY4-IT1 was overexpressed in patients with glioma, and high SPRY4-IT1 expression correlated with poor prognosis. In vitro and in vivo experiments showed that SPRY4-IT1 promoted the proliferation of glioma cells. RNA sequencing and Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis indicated significant enrichment of angiogenesis. HUVEC tube forming assay and CAM assay confirmed that SPRY4-IT1 could induce angiogenesis of glioma cells in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, SPRY4-IT1 upregulated EZH2 expression by sponging miR-101-3p to induce VEGFA expression in glioma cells. Moreover, SPRY4-IT1 activated the VEGFR2/AKT/ERK1/2 pathway in HUVECs mediated by glioma cells. Rescue experiments further confirmed that SPRY4-IT1 promoted glioma cell proliferation and angiogenesis via the miR-101-3p/EZH2/VEGFA signaling axis.ConclusionsOur findings provide compelling evidence showing that SPRY4-IT1 upregulated EZH2 to induce VEGFA by sponging miR-101-3p, thereby achieving cell proliferation and angiogenesis in glioma. Therefore, targeting SPRY4-IT1/miR-101-3p/EZH2/VEGFA axis may improve the outcomes of patients with glioma.
