LncRNA LUCAT1 Promotes Glioblastoma Progression by Enhancing HIF1⍺ Activity [RNA-seq]


ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma (GBM) is characterized by a high degree of hypoxia. Hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) modulate glioma stem-like cell (GSC) responses to hypoxia and promote GBM progression, therapeutic resistance, and recurrence. Here we identify a new transcript of the long non-coding RNA LUCAT1 and show that it reinforces HIF1⍺ signaling in GSCs under hypoxia. LUCAT1 expression is highly induced under hypoxia in GBM and GSCs in a HIF1⍺-dependent manner. High LUCAT1 expression in human GBM correlates with increased aggression and poor survival. Mechanistically, LUCAT1 associates with chromatin and modulates interaction between HIF1⍺ and coactivator CBP to hypoxia response elements (HREs) to drive HIF1⍺-target gene expression under hypoxia. Thus, LUCAT1 acts as a positive feedback factor to augment HIF1⍺ signaling under hypoxic stress in GSCs. Loss of LUCAT1 reduces tumor growth and prolongs mouse survival in xenograft models of GBM. Our findings provide new insights into how GSCs regulate gene expression under hypoxia and identify LUCAT1 as therapeutic target in GBM.
