  • GLIPR1 Suppresses Prostate Cancer Development Through Targeted Oncoprotein Destruction
    Published OnlineFirst October 24, 2011; DOI: 10.1158/0008-5472.CAN-11-1714 Cancer Tumor and Stem Cell Biology Research GLIPR1 Suppresses Prostate Cancer Development through Targeted Oncoprotein Destruction Likun Li1, Chengzhen Ren1, Guang Yang1, Elmoataz Abdel Fattah4, Alexei A. Goltsov1, Soo Mi Kim2, Ju-Seog Lee2, Sanghee Park1, Francesco J. Demayo5, Michael M. Ittmann6,7, Patricia Troncoso3, and Timothy C. Thompson1 Abstract Downregulation of the proapoptotic p53 target gene glioma pathogenesis-related protein 1 (GLIPR1) occurs frequently in prostate cancer, but the functional meaning of this event is obscure. Here, we report the discovery of functional relationship between GLIPR1 and c-Myc in prostate cancer where c-Myc is often upregulated. We found that the expression of GLIPR1 and c-Myc were inversely correlated in human prostate cancer. Restoration of GLIPR1 expression in prostate cancer cells downregulated c-myc levels, inhibiting cell-cycle progression. Downregulation was linked to a reduction in b-catenin/TCF4-mediated transcription of the c-myc gene, which was caused by GLIPR1-mediated redistribution of casein kinase 1a (CK1a) from the Golgi apparatus to the cytoplasm where CK1a could phosphorylate b-catenin and mediate its destruction. In parallel, GLIPR1 also promoted c-Myc protein ubiquitination and degradation by glycogen synthase kinase-3a- and/or CK1a-mediated c-Myc phosphorylation. Notably, genetic ablation of the mouse homolog of Glipr1 cooperated with c-myc overexpression to induce prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia and prostate cancer. Together, our findings provide evidence for CK1a-mediated destruction of c-Myc and identify c-Myc S252 as a crucial CK1a phosphorylation site for c-Myc degradation.

Condorelli , Laura M. Mongioì, Sandro La Vignera * and Aldo E. Calogero Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine, University of Catania, 95123 Catania, Italy; [email protected] (R.A.C.); [email protected] (L.M.M.); [email protected] (A.E.C.) * Correspondence: [email protected] (R.C.); [email protected] (S.L.V.) Received: 8 February 2020; Accepted: 2 March 2020; Published: 3 March 2020 Abstract: Male infertility affects half of infertile couples and, currently, a relevant percentage of cases of male infertility is considered as idiopathic. Although the male contribution to human fertilization has traditionally been restricted to sperm DNA, current evidence suggest that a relevant number of sperm transcripts and proteins are involved in acrosome reactions, sperm-oocyte fusion and, once released into the oocyte, embryo growth and development. The aim of this review is to provide updated and comprehensive insight into the molecular biology of spermatogenesis, including evidence on spermatogenetic failure and underlining the role of the sperm-carried molecular factors involved in oocyte fertilization and embryo growth. This represents the first step in the identification of new possible diagnostic and, possibly, therapeutic markers in the field of apparently idiopathic male infertility. Keywords: spermatogenetic failure; embryo growth; male infertility; spermatogenesis; recurrent pregnancy loss; sperm proteome; DNA fragmentation; sperm transcriptome 1. Introduction Infertility is a widespread condition in industrialized countries, affecting up to 15% of couples of childbearing age [1]. It is defined as the inability to achieve conception after 1–2 years of unprotected sexual intercourse [2].

  • Protein Arginine Methyltransferase 5 Regulates Multiple Signaling Pathways to Promote Lung Cancer Cell Proliferation Xiumei Sheng1 and Zhengxin Wang2*
    Sheng and Wang BMC Cancer (2016) 16:567 DOI 10.1186/s12885-016-2632-3 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Protein arginine methyltransferase 5 regulates multiple signaling pathways to promote lung cancer cell proliferation Xiumei Sheng1 and Zhengxin Wang2* Abstract Background: Protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) catalyzes the formation of symmetrical dimethylation of arginine residues in proteins. WD repeat domain 77 (WDR77), also known as p44, MEP50, or WD45, forms a stoichiometric complex with PRMT5. The PRMT5/p44 complex is required for cellular proliferation of lung and prostate epithelial cells during earlier stages of development and is re-activated during prostate and lung tumorigenesis. The molecular mechanisms by which PRMT5 and p44 promote cellular proliferation are unknown. Methods: Expression of PRMT5 and p44 in lung and prostate cancer cells was silenced and their target genes were identified. The regulation of target genes was validated in various cancer cells during lung development and tumorigenesis. Altered expression of target genes was achieved by ectopic cDNA expression and shRNA-mediated silencing. Results: PRMT5 and p44 regulate expression of a specific set of genes encoding growth and anti-growth factors, including receptor tyrosine kinases and antiproliferative proteins. Genes whose expression was suppressed by PRMT5 and p44 encoded anti-growth factors and inhibited cell growth when ectopically expressed. In contrast, genes whose expression was enhanced by PRMT5 and p44 encoded growth factors and increased cell growth when expressed. Altered expression of target genes is associated with re-activation of PRMT5 and p44 during lung tumorigenesis. Conclusions: Our data provide the molecular basis by which PRMT5 and p44 regulate cell growth and lay a foundation for further investigation of their role in lung tumor initiation.

  • Downregulation of SNRPG Induces Cell Cycle Arrest and Sensitizes Human Glioblastoma Cells to Temozolomide by Targeting Myc Through a P53-Dependent Signaling Pathway
    Cancer Biol Med 2020. doi: 10.20892/j.issn.2095-3941.2019.0164 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Downregulation of SNRPG induces cell cycle arrest and sensitizes human glioblastoma cells to temozolomide by targeting Myc through a p53-dependent signaling pathway Yulong Lan1,2*, Jiacheng Lou2*, Jiliang Hu1, Zhikuan Yu1, Wen Lyu1, Bo Zhang1,2 1Department of Neurosurgery, Shenzhen People’s Hospital, Second Clinical Medical College of Jinan University, The First Affiliated Hospital of Southern University of Science and Technology, Shenzhen 518020, China;2 Department of Neurosurgery, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University, Dalian 116023, China ABSTRACT Objective: Temozolomide (TMZ) is commonly used for glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) chemotherapy. However, drug resistance limits its therapeutic effect in GBM treatment. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) have vital roles in posttranscriptional events. While disturbance of RBP-RNA network activity is potentially associated with cancer development, the precise mechanisms are not fully known. The SNRPG gene, encoding small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide G, was recently found to be related to cancer incidence, but its exact function has yet to be elucidated. Methods: SNRPG knockdown was achieved via short hairpin RNAs. Gene expression profiling and Western blot analyses were used to identify potential glioma cell growth signaling pathways affected by SNRPG. Xenograft tumors were examined to determine the carcinogenic effects of SNRPG on glioma tissues. Results: The SNRPG-mediated inhibitory effect on glioma cells might be due to the targeted prevention of Myc and p53. In addition, the effects of SNRPG loss on p53 levels and cell cycle progression were found to be Myc-dependent. Furthermore, SNRPG was increased in TMZ-resistant GBM cells, and downregulation of SNRPG potentially sensitized resistant cells to TMZ, suggesting that SNRPG deficiency decreases the chemoresistance of GBM cells to TMZ via the p53 signaling pathway.

  • And Cell-Specific Epigenetic Regulation of CD44, Cyclin D2, GLIPR1 and PTEN by Methyl-Cpg Binding Proteins and Histone Modifications
    Müller et al. BMC Cancer 2010, 10:297 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2407/10/297 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Promoter-Research article and cell-specific epigenetic regulation of CD44, Cyclin D2, GLIPR1 and PTEN by Methyl-CpG binding proteins and histone modifications Imke Müller, Frank Wischnewski, Klaus Pantel and Heidi Schwarzenbach* Abstract Background : The aim of the current study was to analyze the involvement of methyl-CpG binding proteins (MBDs) and histone modifications on the regulation of CD44, Cyclin D2, GLIPR1 and PTEN in different cellular contexts such as the prostate cancer cells DU145 and LNCaP, and the breast cancer cells MCF-7. Since global chromatin changes have been shown to occur in tumours and regions of tumour-associated genes are affected by epigenetic modifications, these may constitute important regulatory mechanisms for the pathogenesis of malignant transformation. Methods : In DU145, LNCaP and MCF-7 cells mRNA expression levels of CD44, Cyclin D2, GLIPR1 and PTEN were determined by quantitative RT-PCR at the basal status as well as after treatment with demethylating agent 5-aza-2'- deoxycytidine and/or histone deacetylase inhibitor Trichostatin A. Furthermore, genomic DNA was bisulfite-converted and sequenced. Chromatin immunoprecipitation was performed with the stimulated and unstimulated cells using antibodies for MBD1, MBD2 and MeCP2 as well as 17 different histone antibodies. Results : Comparison of the different promoters showed that MeCP2 and MBD2a repressed promoter-specifically Cyclin D2 in all cell lines, whereas in MCF-7 cells MeCP2 repressed cell-specifically all methylated promoters. Chromatin immunoprecipitation showed that all methylated promoters associated with at least one MBD.

Bernd Helms ([email protected]) Members of the CAP superfamily (Cysteine-rich secretory proteins, Antigen 5, and Pathogenesis-related 1 proteins) are characterized by the presence of a CAP domain that is defined by four sequence motifs and a highly conserved tertiary structure. Acommon structure–function relationship for this domain is hitherto unknown. A characteristic of sev- eral CAP proteins is their formation of amyloid-like structures in the presence of lipids. Here we investigate the structural modulation of Golgi-Associated plant Pathogenesis Related protein 1 (GAPR-1) by known interactors of the CAP domain, preceding amyloid-like ag- gregation. Using isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), we demonstrate that GAPR-1 binds zinc ions. Zn2+ binding causes a slight but significant conformational change as revealed by CD, tryptophan fluorescence, and trypsin digestion.

  • Definition of Ubiquitination Modulator COP1 As a Novel Therapeutic Target in Human Hepatocellular Carcinoma
    Published OnlineFirst on October 19, 2010 as 10.1158/0008-5472.CAN-10-0749 Priority Report Cancer Research Definition of Ubiquitination Modulator COP1 as a Novel Therapeutic Target in Human Hepatocellular Carcinoma Yun-Han Lee1, Jesper B. Andersen1, Ho-Taek Song3,5, Adam D. Judge4, Daekwan Seo1, Tsuyoshi Ishikawa1, Jens U. Marquardt1, Mitsuteru Kitade1, Marian E. Durkin1, Chiara Raggi1, Hyun Goo Woo1,6, Elizabeth A. Conner1, Itzhak Avital2, Ian MacLachlan4, Valentina M. Factor1, and Snorri S. Thorgeirsson1 Abstract The development of targeted therapeutics for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains a major challenge. The ubiquitination modulator COP1 regulates p53 activity by ubiquitination and it is frequently overexpressed in human HCC. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that COP1 blockade by short interfering RNA (siRNA)– mediated inhibition could affect the course of HCC progression. The COP1 isoform COP1-1 was selected as the most effective target for siRNAs in terms of growth inhibition and apoptotic induction in several HCC cell lines. Growth inhibition occurred in HCC cells that retained wild-type p53 or expressed mutant p53 (Y220C or R249S), whereas p53-null Hep3B cells were resistant. Microarray expression analysis revealed that the anti- proliferative effects of COP1 blockade were driven by a common subset of molecular alterations including a p53-associated functional network. In an orthotopic mouse xenograft model of HCC, systemic delivery of a modified COP1 siRNA by stable nucleic acid–lipid particles suppressed neoplastic growth in liver without un- wanted immune responses. Our findings offer a first proof of principle that COP1 can be a promising target for systemic therapy of HCC.
