Hypermethylation leads to the loss of HOXA5, resulting in JAG1 expression and NOTCH signaling for renal fibrosis

ABSTRACT: DNA methylation has been implicated in renal fibrosis. In this study, we demonstrated the induction of DNA methyltransferases and global DNA methylation in fibrotic kidneys, and further proved the beneficial effects of their inhibitor 5-Aza in renal fibrosis. HOXA5 was shown to be down-regulated in fibrotic kidneys through hypermethylation, and this down-regulation led to JAG1 expression and consequent activation of NOTCH signaling for renal fibrogenesis. These findings unveil DNA methylation and related genes, such as HOXA5, as potential therapeutic targets in renal fibrotic disease.

Hypermethylation suppresses microRNA-219a-2 to activate the ALDH1L2/GSH/PAI-1 pathway for fibronectin degradation in renal fibrosis [RRBS]

Project description:Epigenetic regulations, such as DNA methylation and microRNAs, play an important role in renal fibrosis. Here, we report the regulation of microRNA-219a-2 (mir-219a-2) by DNA methylation in fibrotic kidneys, unveiling the crosstalk between these epigenetic mechanisms. Through genome-wide DNA methylation analysis and pyro-sequencing, we detected the hypermethylation of mir-219a-2 in renal fibrosis induced by unilateral ureter obstruction (UUO) or renal ischemia/reperfusion, which was accompanied by a significant decrease in mir-219a-5p expression. Functionally, overexpression of mir-219a-2 enhanced fibronectin induction during hypoxia or TGF-b1 treatment of cultured renal cells. In mice, inhibition of mir-219a-5p suppressed fibronectin accumulation in UUO kidneys. ALDH1L2 was identified to be the direct target gene of mir-219a-5p in renal fibrosis. Mir-219a-5p suppressed ALDH1L2 expression in cultured renal cells, while inhibition of mir-219a-5p prevented the decrease of ALDH1L2 in UUO kidneys. Knockdown of ALDH1L2 enhanced PAI-1 induction during TGF-b1 treatment of renal cells, which was associated with fibronectin expression. In conclusion, the hypermethylation of mir-219a-2 in response to fibrotic stress attenuates mir-219a-5p expression and induces the up-regulation of its target gene ALDH1L2, which may reduce fibronectin deposition by suppressing PAI-1.

The role HOXA5 in extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (Methylation)

Project description:Homeobox A5 (HOXA5) is a transcription factor in mammalian and can regulate cell differentiation, proliferation and apoptosis as well as tumorigenesis. However, little is known on whether and how HOXA5 can regulate the malignant behaviors of cholangiocarcinoma. The methylation levels of HOXA5 were evaluated by methylation microarray and bisulfite sequencing PCR. We found that hypermethylation in the HOXA5 promoter down-regulated HOXA5 expression in extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ECCA) tissues, which was correlated with worse overall survival. HOXA5 over-expression significantly inhibited the proliferation and tumor growth.

PFKFB3-mediated glycolysis boosts fibroblast activation and subsequent kidney fibrosis

Project description:<p>Renal fibrosis, a hallmark of chronic kidney diseases, is driven by the activation of renal fibroblasts. Recent studies have highlighted the role of glycolysis in this process. Nevertheless, one critical glycolytic activator, 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3), remains unexplored in renal fibrosis. Upon reanalyzing the single-cell sequencing data from Dr. Humphreys' lab, we noticed an upregulation of glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, and TGFβ signaling pathway in myofibroblasts from fibrotic kidneys after unilateral ureter obstruction (UUO) or kidney ischemia/reperfusion. Furthermore, our experiments showed significant induction of PFKFB3 in mouse kidneys following UUO or kidney ischemia/reperfusion. To delve deeper into the role of PFKFB3, we generated mice with Pfkfb3 deficiency specifically in myofibroblasts (Pfkfb3f/fPostnMCM). Following UUO or kidney ischemia/reperfusion, a substantial decrease of fibrosis in injured kidneys of Pfkfb3f/fPostnMCM mice was identified compared to their wild-type littermates. Additionally, in cultured renal fibroblast NRK-49F cells, PFKFB3 was elevated upon exposure to TGFβ1, accompanied by the increase of α-SMA and fibronectin. Notably, this upregulation was significantly diminished with PFKFB3 knockdown, correlated with a glycolysis suppression. Mechanistically, the glycolytic metabolite lactate promoted the fibrotic activation of NRK-49F. In conclusion, our study demonstrates the critical role of PFKFB3 in driving fibroblast activation and subsequent renal fibrosis.</p>

The binding pattern of HOXA5 in the genome of extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma cells

Project description:HOXA5 is a transcription factor in mammalian and can regulate cell differentiation, proliferation and apoptosis as well as tumorigenesis. However, little is known on whether and how HOXA5 can regulate the malignant behaviors of cholangiocarcinoma. The binding pattern of HOXA5 was evaluated by CUT & Tag assay. The differential peaks were analysed to assess the role of HOXA5 in the regulation of the key genes involved in cell proliferation and DNA replication.

HOXA5 counteracts stem cell traits by inhibiting Wnt signaling

Project description:Here we identify HOXA5 as an important repressor of intestinal stem cell fate in vivo and identify a reciprocal feedback between HOXA5 and Wnt signaling. HOXA5 is suppressed by the Wnt pathway to maintain stemness and becomes active only outside the intestinal crypt where it inhibits Wnt signaling to enforce differentiation. In colon cancer, HOXA5 is down-regulated and its re-expression induces loss of the cancer stem cell phenotype preventing tumor progression and metastasis. Tumor regression by HOXA5 induction can be triggered by retinoids, which represents a tangible means to treat colon cancer by eliminating cancer stem cells. We use microarrays to identify HOXA5 signature in SW480 human colon carcinoma cell line

HOXA5 inhibits metastasis and associates with prolonged survival in lung cancer

Project description:Homeobox genes comprise a family of regulatory genes that contain a common homeobox domain and act as transcription factors. Changes in the expression of homeobox genes are observed in many cancers, including leukaemia, colon, skin, prostate, breast, and ovarian cancers. Recent studies indicate that homeobox A5 (HOXA5) may serve as a tumour suppressor gene in breast cells. However, the precise role of HOXA5 in lung cancer remains unclear. Using microarrays and an invasion/metastasis lung adenocarcinoma cell line model, we showed that the expression of HOXA5 is negatively correlated with cancer cell invasion ability. The ectopic expression of HOXA5 in highly invasive cancer cells suppressed cell migration, invasion, and filopodia formation in vitro and inhibited metastatic potential in vivo. The knockdown of HOXA5 expression via a HOXA5-specific siRNA was able to promote the invasiveness of lung cancer cells. Furthermore, HOXA5 expression was associated with improved overall survival and disease-free survival in non-small cell lung cancer patients with wild-type EGFR (P = 0.0199 and 0.0345, respectively). Genome-wide transcriptome and pathway analyses indicated that these effects of HOXA5 may be associated with the regulation of cytoskeletal remodelling. In summary, our studies provide new insights into how HOXA5 may contribute to the suppression of metastasis in lung cancer. We used microarrays to profile the global gene expression of HOXA5-overexpressing cells compared with mock control cells and identified the pathways involved in HOXA5-induced biofunctional alterations.
