Abstract
Purpose: Clarification of cisplatin resistance may provide new targets for therapy in cisplatin resistant ovarian cancer. The current study aims to explore involvement of isoforms of AU-rich element RNA-binding protein 1 (AUF1) in cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer.
Methods: The cancer stem cell-like features were analyzed using colony formation assay, tumor sphere formation assay and nude mouse xenograft experiments. AUF1 isoforms expression was analyzed using immunoblotting, qRT-PCR, and immunohistochemistry. RIP and Biotin pulldown was used to analyze the interaction of SRSF2 and hnRNPA1 with AUF1 transcript. Transcriptome regulated by AUF1 isoforms was analyzed by RNA-seq.
Results: The current study demonstrated differential expression of AUF1 isoforms in cisplatin sensitive and resistant ovarian cancer tissues and cells. P37 isoform promoted proliferation, while p45 isoform enhanced responsiveness of ovarian cancer cells to cisplatin. the clonal formation capacity of the cells, and the restoration of p45 expression reduced the capacity with cisplatin treatment. The competitive binding of phosphorylated hnRNPA1 and O-GlcNAc-modified SRSF2 on AUF1 exon 2 and exon 7 regulated the alternative splicing of AUF1.
Conclusion: The competitive binding of phosphorylated hnRNPA1 and O-GlcNAc modified SRSF2 on exon 2 and exon 7 regulated the alternative splicing of AUF1 and subsequent isoform expression. P37 isoform played a "cancer promoter" role, p42 and p45, especially p45 played a "cancer suppressor" role in ovarian cancer. This study provides a new target for exploring the drug resistance mechanism of ovarian cancer.
期刊介绍:
The Official Journal of the International Society for Cellular Oncology
Focuses on translational research
Addresses the conversion of cell biology to clinical applications
Cellular Oncology publishes scientific contributions from various biomedical and clinical disciplines involved in basic and translational cancer research on the cell and tissue level, technical and bioinformatics developments in this area, and clinical applications. This includes a variety of fields like genome technology, micro-arrays and other high-throughput techniques, genomic instability, SNP, DNA methylation, signaling pathways, DNA organization, (sub)microscopic imaging, proteomics, bioinformatics, functional effects of genomics, drug design and development, molecular diagnostics and targeted cancer therapies, genotype-phenotype interactions.
A major goal is to translate the latest developments in these fields from the research laboratory into routine patient management. To this end Cellular Oncology forms a platform of scientific information exchange between molecular biologists and geneticists, technical developers, pathologists, (medical) oncologists and other clinicians involved in the management of cancer patients.
In vitro studies are preferentially supported by validations in tumor tissue with clinicopathological associations.
