ARTS confers chemoresistance of breast cancer by inducing apoptosis-dependent autophagy via Livin-MDM2-p53 pathway

ABSTRACT: Apoptosis and autophagy are two fundamental pathophysiological processes of cell fate regulation under stress conditions, especially in anti-cancer therapy. However, the interplay between apoptosis and autophagy in the cancer chemoresistance is not fully elucidated. Herein, we identified apoptosis-related protein in TGF-β signaling pathway (ARTS) as a key link between apoptosis and autophagy, facilitating cell survival and chemoresistance. ARTS was highly expressed in chemoresistant breast cancer tissues and was associated with patient poor prognosis. Expression of ARTS conferred the resistance of doxorubicin (DOX) and docetaxel (DTX) by inducing autophagy in breast cancer cells in vivo and in vitro. As regards the mechanism of action, ARTS translocated from the mitochondrial intermembrane space to the cytoplasm after pro-apoptotic signals from chemotherapeutic drugs, subsequently inducing autophagy through the SIAH1-mediated Livin degradation and further activation of the MDM2/p53 pathway, thus resulting in the survival of breast cancer cells. The inhibition of apoptosis or autophagy effectively suppressed the chemoresistance mediated by ARTS. Generally, this study identified a new pathway of ARTS/Livin/MDM2/p53 conferred chemoresistance of breast cancer through inducing autophagy in an apoptosis-dependent manner.

Fatty acid oxidation protects cancer cells from apoptosis through increasing mitochondrial membrane lipids

Project description:<p>Overcoming resistance to chemotherapies remains a major unmet need for cancers such as triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Therefore, mechanistic studies to provide insight for drug development are urgently needed to overcome TNBC therapy resistance. Recently, an important role of fatty acid β-Oxidation (FAO) in chemoresistance has been shown. But how FAO might mitigate tumor cell apoptosis by chemotherapy is unclear. Here, we show that elevated FAO activates STAT3 by acetylation via elevated acetyl-CoA. Acetylated STAT3 upregulates expression of long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase 4 (ACSL4), resulting in increased phospholipid synthesis. Elevating phospholipids in mitochondrial membranes leads to heightened mitochondrial integrity, which in turn overcomes chemotherapy-induced tumor cell apoptosis. Conversely, in both cultured tumor cells and xenograft tumors, enhanced cancer cell apoptosis by inhibiting ASCL4 or specifically targeting acetylated-STAT3 is associated with a reduction in phospholipids within mitochondrial membranes. This study demonstrates a critical mechanism underlying tumor cell chemoresistance.</p>

SMAD4 regulated through HDAC4 is associated with chemoresistance in MCF-7 cells

Project description:HDACs play crucial role in epigenetic modulation through deacetylation of histone and non-histone substrates in critical process of normal development and cancer. Moreover, HDAC inhibitors have been considered as new agent by effects such as cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, anti-angiogenic effects and autophagy and utilized in clinical applications for chemotherapy. we previously reported that HDAC 1, 4, 6 and 8 were higly expressed in MDA-MB-231 than MCF-7 cells and HDAC1, 6 and 8 excepting HDAC4 were associated with invasion that is very important factor in cancer progression. However, HDAC4 did not affect in invasion. To investigate interaction between chemoresistance and HDAC4 expression, we establish stable cells overexpressing HDAC4 in MCF-7 cells. Cells overexpressed HDAC4 were increased cytotoxicity about 5-FU and identified 356 differentially expressed genes using Ilumina array. Based on array result, we selected SMAD4 as a candidate gene related with chemoresistance because SMAD4 was previously reported evaluation of chemoresistance to 5-FU. We purpose that HDAC4 regulated with SMAD4 expression through acetylation in SMAD4 promoter region. HDAC4 directly bound a part of SMAD4 promoter. Total RNA obtained from cells overexpressed HDAC4 cDNA in MCF-7 compared to control cells.

RNautophagic regulation of DNMT3a-dependent DNA methylation

Project description:Calorie restriction has long been known to extend lifespans and inhibit carcinogenesis in multiple species by slowing age-related epigenetic changes while the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. Herein, we found that starvation activated autophagy to remodel DNA methylation profile by inhibiting DNMT3a expression. Autophagy is impaired in chemoresistance which was associated with differential DNA methylation and could be reversed by DNMT3a inhibition. Autophagy activation decreases the expression of DNMT3a mRNA, accompanied with the downregulation of chemoresistance-related Linc00942. Knockdown of Linc00942 reduces DNMT3a expression and genome-wide DNA methylation while Linc00942 overexpression increased DNMT3a expression and correlated hypermethylation in cancer cells and primary tumor tissues. As a result, inhibition of autophagy increases Linc00942 expression to promote chemoresistance and autophagy activation or hypomethylating agent decitabine restores chemosensitivity by reducing global DNA methylation. Taken together, our study identifies a novel methylation cascade linking impaired RNautophagy to global hypermethylation in chemoresistance, and provides a rationale for repurposing decitabine to overcome chemoresistance in cancer treatment.

MiR-193b promotes autophagy and non-apoptotic cell death in oesophageal cancer cells

Project description:Background: Successful treatment of oesophageal cancer is hampered by recurrent drug resistant disease. We have previously demonstrated the importance of apoptosis and autophagy for the recovery of oesophageal cancer cells following drug treatment. When apoptosis (with autophagy) is induced, these cells are chemosensitive and will not recover following chemotherapy treatment. In contrast, when cancer cells exhibit only autophagy and limited Type II cell death, they are chemoresistant and recover following drug withdrawal. Methods: MicroRNA (miRNA) expression profiling of an oesophageal cancer cell line panel was used to identify miRNAs that were important in the regulation of apoptosis and autophagy. The effects of miRNA overexpression on cell death mechanisms and recovery were assessed in the chemoresistant (autophagy inducing) KYSE450 oesophageal cancer cells. Results: MiR-193b was the most differentially expressed miRNA between the chemosensitive and chemoresistant cell lines with higher expression in chemosensitive apoptosis inducing cell lines. Colony formation assays showed that overexpression of miR-193b significantly impedes the ability of KYSE450 cells to recover following 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) treatment. The critical mRNA targets of miR-193b are unknown but target prediction and siRNA data analysis suggest that it may mediate some of its effects through stathmin 1 regulation. Apoptosis was not involved in the enhanced cytotoxicity. Overexpression of miR- 193b in these cells induced autophagic flux and non-apoptotic cell death. Conclusion: These results highlight the importance of miR-193b in determining oesophageal cancer cell viability and demonstrate an enhancement of chemotoxicity that is independent of apoptosis induction.

SIRT6 phosphorylation - MDM2-mediated degradation of SIRT6 phosphorylated by AKT1 promotes tumorigenesis and trastuzumab resistance in breast cancer

Project description:Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) is associated with longevity and was recently established as a tumor suppressor. Hence, identifying the molecular regulators of SIRT6 might enable its activation therapeutically in cancer patients. We found that SIRT6 was phosphorylated by the kinase AKT1 at Ser338, which induces its interaction with and ubiquitination by MDM2, priming it for protease-dependent degradation. The survival of patients with breast cancers positively correlated with the abundance of SIRT6 and inversely correlated with the phosphorylation of SIRT6 at Ser338. In a large panel of breast tumor biopsies, SIRT6 abundance inversely correlated with the abundance of phosphorylated AKT. Inhibiting AKT or preventing SIRT6 phosphorylation by mutating Ser338 prevented the degradation of SIRT6 mediated by MDM2, suppressed the proliferation of breast cancer cells in culture, and inhibited the growth of breast tumor xenografts in mice. Overexpressing MDM2 decreased the abundance of SIRT6 in cells, whereas overexpressing an E3 ligase-deficient MDM2 or knocking down endogenous MDM2 increased SIRT6 abundance. Knocking down SIRT6 decreased the sensitivity of a breast cancer cell line to trastuzumab, whereas overexpression of a non-phosphorylatable SIRT6 mutant increased trastuzumab sensitivity in a resistant subculture. Thus, stabilizing SIRT6 may be a clinical strategy for overcoming trastuzumab resistance in breast cancer patients.

Identification of SRSF9 through pooled shRNA screening links BNIP3 splicing to autophagy and metabolic reprogramming in breast cancer

Project description:Autophagy is a catabolic process that facilitates the degradation of toxic molecules and contributes to the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. However, the alternative splicing of genes involved in hypoxia-induced autophagy remains relatively unexplored. Here we performed pooled shRNA screening of multiple RNA binding proteins under hypoxia to mechanistically decipher their role in regulating alternative splicing of autophagy genes in breast cancer cells. We reported reduced SRSF9 expression under hypoxia that when exogenously expressed diminishes autophagosome formation. SRSF9 regulates alternative splicing of BNIP3 generating two functionally distinct isoforms regulating autophagosome formation and cancer progression through Warburg effect. Mechanistically, SRSF9 directly binds to exon 3 of BNIP3 mRNA inhibiting the truncated BNIP3- Δ3 generation and resultant warburg effect. Moreover, the individual ectopic expression of full length BNIP-FL promotes autophagosome formation. Collectively, our study identifies novel mechanism where SRSF9 mediates the switch between autophagy and Warburg effect via BNIP3 alternative splicing thereby impacting breast cancer progression and chemoresistance.

A Lysosome independent role for TFEB in activating DNA repair and inhibiting apoptosis in breast cancer cells

Project description:Transcription factor EB (TFEB) is a master regulator of lysosomal biogenesis and autophagy with critical roles in several cancers. Lysosomal autophagy promotes cancer survival through degradation of toxic molecules and maintenance of adequate nutrient supply. Doxorubicin (DOX) is the standard of care treatment for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC); however, chemoresistance at lower doses and toxicity at higher doses limit its usefulness. By targeting pathways of survival, DOX can become an effective antitumor agent. In this study, we examined the role of TFEB in TNBC and its relationship with autophagy and DNA damage induced by DOX. In TNBC cells, TFEB was hypo-phosphorylated and localized to the nucleus upon DOX treatment. TFEB knockdown decreased the viability of TNBC cells while increasing caspase-3 dependent apoptosis. Additionally, inhibition of TFEB-phosphatase calcineurin sensitized cells to DOX-induced apoptosis in a TFEB dependent fashion. Regulation of apoptosis by TFEB was not a consequence of altered lysosomal function, as TFEB continued to protect against apoptosis in the presence of lysosomal inhibitors. RNA-Seq analysis of TFEB knockdown MDA-MB-231 cells identified a significant downregulation in cell cycle and homologous recombination while genes involved in interferon-γ and TNFα signaling were upregulated. In consequence, knockdown of TFEB was found to disrupt DNA repair following DOX, as evidenced by persistent γH2A.X detection. Together, these findings describe in TNBC a novel lysosomal independent function for TFEB in responding to DNA damage.

Expression data from MTDH knockdown in the Hec50co endometrial cancer cell line

Project description:Understanding the molecular underpinnings of chemoresistance is vital to design therapies to restore chemosensitivity. In particular, metadherin (MTDH) has been demonstrated to have a critical role in chemoresistance. Over-expression of MTDH has recently been implicated in poor clinical outcome in breast cancer, neroblastoma, hepatocellular carcinoma and prostate cancer. In this present study, we focused on the therapeutic benefit of MTDH depletion to restore sensitivity to cell death mediated by a combinatorial therapy of tumor necrosis factor-alpha-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), which promotes death of cancerous cells of the human reproductive tract, and histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors, which have been shown to increase sensitivity of cancer cells to TRAIL-induced apoptosis. Our data indicate that depletion of MTDH in endometrial cancer cells results in sensitization of cells that were previously resistant to cell death mediated by combinatorial treatment with TRAIL and HDAC inhibitor LBH589. MTDH was found to be involved in G2/M checkpoint regulation in response to LBH589 alone or LBH589 in combination with TRAIL, suggesting that MTDH functions at the cell cycle checkpoint to accomplish resistance.Using microarray technology, we identified 57 downstream target genes of MTDH, including Calbindin 1 and Galectin 1, which may contribute to MTDH-mediated resistance to combinatorial TRAIL and HDAC inhibitor targeted therapy. Inhibition of PDK1,AKT phosphorylation and increase Bim expression and XIAP degradation may result in sensitivity to cell death induction in MTDH depleted Hec50co cells by TRAIL and LBH 589 combination treatment. These findings indicate that depletion of MTDH is a potentially novel avenue for effective cancer therapy. The microarray was performed on three biological triplicates as well as three experimental triplictes of stable knockdown and control cells. MTDH was knocked down using a shRNA.
