This study investigated the relationship between TGF-β signaling, epigenetic modifications, and cellular behaviors in ovarian cancer. We found that E-cadherin, a key cell adhesion molecule, underwent epigenetic silencing via promoter DNA hypermethylation in ovarian cancer cell lines and that this was accompanied by the upregulation of vimentin, which is indicative of a mesenchymal and invasive phenotype. DNA-demethylating agents restored E-cadherin expression, which suggests that TGF-β signaling mediates this epigenetic silencing. Overexpression of SMAD7, an inhibitory component of TGF-β signaling, reversed E-cadherin silencing, which suggests a role of SMAD7 in modulating the epigenetic status. Functionally, SMAD7 overexpression inhibited the migration and invasion in ovarian cancer cells, which suggests its therapeutic potential for suppressing metastasis. Clinically, ovarian cancer patients with high SMAD7 expression had significantly longer disease-free survival. Mechanistically, SMAD7 overexpression decreased the acetylation of H3K9 and the binding of the transcriptional repressor TWIST1 at the E-cadherin promoter, which promoted its demethylation and reactivation. Disruption of TGF-β signaling upregulated SMAD4 target genes, which are silenced by epigenetic mechanisms, a finding that suggests broader therapeutic implications.

The results demonstrate that TRIM21 is downregulated in ccRCC, and low expression of TRIM21 predicts an unfavorable prognosis for ccRCC patients. Furthermore, the upregulation of TRIM21 can inhibit the migration and invasion of ccRCC cells by regulating the ubiquitination modification of ASS1. This not only expands the functional role of TRIM21 in ccRCC tumorigenesis but also demonstrates its ability to reverse urea cycle dysregulation through stabilizing ASS1 expression. Specifically, abnormal downregulation of TRIM21 in ccRCC reduces K63 ubiquitination modification of ASS1, leading to decreased stability of the ASS1 protein, aggravated urea cycle dysregulation, and facilitated migration and invasion of ccRCC cells. Additionally, reduction in ASS1 reverses the depressed migration and invasion caused by overexpression of TRIM21 in ccRCC cells. In summary, our findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the functional role played by TRIM21 in ccRCC progression, pinpoint a unique and novel regulatory mechanism involving ectopic downregulation-mediated ASS1 ubiquitination modification and urea cycle dysfunction during ccRCC progression, and provide fresh insights for further investigation into the pathogenesis and metabolic reprogramming associated with ccRCC.</p>","PeriodicalId":19003,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Carcinogenesis","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142604714","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
