  • Roles of NRF3 in the Hallmarks of Cancer: Proteasomal Inactivation of Tumor Suppressors
    cancers Review Roles of NRF3 in the Hallmarks of Cancer: Proteasomal Inactivation of Tumor Suppressors Akira Kobayashi 1,2 1 Laboratory for Genetic Code, Graduate School of Life and Medical Sciences, Doshisha University, Kyotanabe, Kyoto 610-0394, Japan; [email protected]; Tel.: +81-774-65-6273 2 Department of Medical Life Systems, Faculty of Life and Medical Sciences, Doshisha University, Kyotanabe, Kyoto 610-0394, Japan Received: 1 September 2020; Accepted: 17 September 2020; Published: 20 September 2020 Simple Summary: This review summarizes recent advances in our understanding of the physiological roles of the NFE2-related factor 2 (NRF2)-related transcription factor NRF3 in cancer. NRF3 confers cells with six so-called “hallmarks of cancer” through upregulating gene expression of specific target genes, leading to tumorigenesis and cancer malignancy. These driver gene-like functions of NRF3 in cancer are distinct from those of NRF2. Abstract: The physiological roles of the NRF2-related transcription factor NRF3 (NFE2L3) have remained unknown for decades. The remarkable development of human cancer genome databases has led to strong suggestions that NRF3 has functional significance in cancer; specifically,high NRF3 mRNA levels are induced in many cancer types, such as colorectal cancer and pancreatic adenocarcinoma, and are associated with poor prognosis. On the basis of this information, the involvement of NRF3 in tumorigenesis and cancer malignancy has been recently proposed. NRF3 confers cancer cells with selective growth advantages by enhancing 20S proteasome assembly through induction of the chaperone gene proteasome maturation protein (POMP) and consequently promoting degradation of the tumor suppressors p53 and retinoblastoma (Rb) in a ubiquitin-independent manner.

The goal of this study was to illuminate the physiological contexts in which lysosomal genes are coordinately regulated and to identify transcription factors involved in this control. Results: As transcription factors and their target genes are often co-regulated, we performed meta-analyses of array-based expression data to identify regulators whose mRNA profiles are highly correlated with those of a core set of lysosomal genes. Among the ~50 transcription factors that rank highest by this measure, 65% are involved in differentiation or development, and 22% have been implicated in interferon signaling. The most strongly correlated candidate was Stat6, a factor commonly activated by interleukin-4 (IL-4) or IL-13. Publicly available chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) data from alternatively activated mouse macrophages show that lysosomal genes are overrepresented among Stat6-bound targets. Quantification of RNA from wild-type and Stat6-deficient cells indicates that Stat6 promotes the expression of over 100 lysosomal genes, including hydrolases, subunits of the vacuolar H+ ATPase and trafficking factors.

Estrogen Receptor (ER) activity is critical for promoting majority of breast cancers. Inhibiting ER is one of the most successful targeted therapies in oncology. Studies have suggested that genomic variation in ER binding sites and ESR1 gene may be responsible for endocrine treatment response and cancer progression. We investigated the role of single nucleotide variants (SNVs) in the ER pathway in breast cancer, including clinically relevant mutations in ER gene and regulatory variants in ER binding sites.

  • A MAFG-Lncrna Axis Links Systemic Nutrient Abundance to Hepatic Glucose Metabolism
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-14323-y OPEN A MAFG-lncRNA axis links systemic nutrient abundance to hepatic glucose metabolism Marta Pradas-Juni et al.# Obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus are global emergencies and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are regulatory transcripts with elusive functions in metabolism. Here we show that a high fraction of lncRNAs, but not protein-coding mRNAs, are repressed during diet-induced 1234567890():,; obesity (DIO) and refeeding, whilst nutrient deprivation induced lncRNAs in mouse liver. Similarly, lncRNAs are lost in diabetic humans. LncRNA promoter analyses, global cistrome and gain-of-function analyses confirm that increased MAFG signaling during DIO curbs lncRNA expression. Silencing Mafg in mouse hepatocytes and obese mice elicits a fasting-like gene expression profile, improves glucose metabolism, de-represses lncRNAs and impairs mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) activation. We find that obesity-repressed LincIRS2 is controlled by MAFG and observe that genetic and RNAi-mediated LincIRS2 loss causes elevated blood glucose, insulin resistance and aberrant glucose output in lean mice. Taken together, we identify a MAFG-lncRNA axis controlling hepatic glucose metabolism in health and metabolic disease. #A full list of authors and their affiliations appears at the end of the paper.

Distinct isoforms of Nrf1 diversely regulate different subsets of its cognate target genes Meng Wang, Lu Qiu, Xufang Ru, Yijiang Song, Yiguo Zhang* The Laboratory of Cell Biochemistry and Topogenetic Regulation, College of Bioengineering and Faculty of Sciences, Chongqing University, No. 174 Shazheng Street, Shapingba District, Chongqing 400044, China *Correspondence should be addressed to Yiguo Zhang (email: [email protected] or [email protected]). Abstract The single Nrf1 gene has capability to be differentially transcripted alongside with alternative mRNA-splicing and subsequent translation through different initiation signals so as to yield distinct lengths of polypeptide isoforms. Amongst them, three of the most representatives are Nrf1α, Nrf1β and Nrf1γ, but the putative specific contribution of each isoform to regulating ARE-driven target genes remains unknown. To address this, we have here established three cell lines on the base of the Flp-In™ T-REx™ system, which are allowed for tetracycline-inducibly stable expression of Nrf1α, Nrf1β and Nrf1γ. The RNA-Sequencing results have demonstrated that a vast majority of differentially expressed genes (i.e. 90 DEGs detected) were dominantly up-regulated by Nrf1α and/or Nrf1β following induction by tetracycline. By contrast, other DEGs regulated by Nrf1γ were far less than those regulated by Nrf1α/β (i.e. ~11 of Nrf1α and 7 of Nrf1β). Further transcriptomic analysis revealed that tetracycline-induced expression of Nrf1γ significantly increased the percentage of down-regulated genes in total DEGs.

  • Oxidized Phospholipids Regulate Amino Acid Metabolism Through MTHFD2 to Facilitate Nucleotide Release in Endothelial Cells

Brandes1,2 Oxidized phospholipids (oxPAPC) induce endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis. Here we show that oxPAPC induce a gene network regulating serine-glycine metabolism with the mitochondrial methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase/cyclohydrolase (MTHFD2) as a cau- sal regulator using integrative network modeling and Bayesian network analysis in human aortic endothelial cells. The cluster is activated in human plaque material and by atherogenic lipo- proteins isolated from plasma of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the MTHFD2-controlled cluster associate with CAD. The MTHFD2-controlled cluster redirects metabolism to glycine synthesis to replenish purine nucleotides. Since endothelial cells secrete purines in response to oxPAPC, the MTHFD2- controlled response maintains endothelial ATP. Accordingly, MTHFD2-dependent glycine synthesis is a prerequisite for angiogenesis. Thus, we propose that endothelial cells undergo MTHFD2-mediated reprogramming toward serine-glycine and mitochondrial one-carbon metabolism to compensate for the loss of ATP in response to oxPAPC during atherosclerosis.

However, cancer cells often rapidly develop drug resistance towards PIs due to a compensatory mechanism mediated by nuclear factor erythroid 2 like 1 (NFE2L1) and aspartic protease DNA damage inducible 1 homolog 2 (DDI2). Following DDI2-mediated cleavage, NFE2L1 is able to induce transcription of virtually all proteasome subunit genes. Under normal condition, cleaved NFE2L1 is constantly de- graded by proteasome, whereas in the presence of PIs, it accumu- lates and induces proteasome synthesis which in turn promotes the development of drug resistance towards PIs. Here, we report that Nelfinavir (NFV), an HIV protease inhibitor, can inhibit DDI2 ac- tivity directly. Inhibition of DDI2 by NFV effectively blocks NFE2L1 proteolysis and potentiates cytotoxicity of PIs in cancer cells.
