Using multiple CRISPR-Cas9 mutagenesis and interference screens, we show that inactivation of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) subunits, including PPP2R1A, enhance ATRi sensitivity in ARID1A mutant OCCC. Analysis of a new OCCC cohort indicates that 52% possess oncogenic PPP2R1A p.R183 mutations and of these, one half possessed both ARID1A as well as PPP2R1A mutations. Using CRISPR-prime editing to generate new isogenic models of PPP2R1A mutant OCCC, we found that PPP2R1A p.R183W and p.R183P mutations cause ATRi-induced S phase stress, premature mitotic entry, genomic instability and ATRi sensitivity in OCCC tumour cells. p.R183 mutation also enhanced both in vitro and in vivo ATRi sensitivity in preclinical models of ARID1A mutant OCCC. These results argue for the assessment of PPP2R1A mutations as a biomarker of ATRi sensitivity.","PeriodicalId":19524,"journal":{"name":"Oncogene","volume":"44 9","pages":"618-629"},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2025-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.nature.com/articles/s41388-024-03265-0.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143409554","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The involvement of DOPEY1 in H. pylori infection-induced carcinogenesis has remained unresolved. Here, we report that DOPEY1 is upregulated in GC tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues, correlating with poor prognosis. Mechanistically, H. pylori infection increases DOPEY1 expression and promotes p53 degradation through a CagA-dependent pathway. Using the String database and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, we identified DOPEY1-interacting proteins, confirming through co-immunoprecipitation that DOPEY1 interacts with USP7 and TRIP12. H. pylori infection enhances the expression of DOPEY1, USP7, and TRIP12, leading to p53 degradation, which is reversed by DOPEY1 silencing. Moreover, USP7 overexpression rescues p53 degradation in DOPEY1-silenced cells. Functionally, DOPEY1 knockdown reduces GC cell proliferation and suppresses tumor growth in mouse models. Immunohistochemistry analysis further reveals a link between DOPEY1, USP7, and TRIP12 expression, H. pylori infection, and GC progression. These findings demonstrate that H. pylori-induced upregulation of DOPEY1 drives p53 degradation via the USP7/TRIP12 axis, contributing to gastric tumorigenesis, and highlight DOPEY1 as a potential therapeutic target for H. pylori-associated GC.</p>","PeriodicalId":19524,"journal":{"name":"Oncogene","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2025-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143408467","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By performing high-throughput sequencing on clinical samples, we systematically identified the differences in circRNA expression and distribution between AML and healthy donor samples. One circular RNA, circAFF2, was found to be significantly upregulated in AML patients. Functional studies showed that knockdown of circAFF2 could significantly inhibit the proliferation of AML cells and promote their apoptosis. Overexpression of circAFF2 can have opposite effects. In vivo experiments showed that transplantation of AML cells with circAFF2 knockdown slowed the proliferation and infiltration and prolonged the survival time of mice compared to controls. Further studies showed that circAFF2 can promote the degradation of PML mRNA by binding to the 3'UTR of PML mRNA, thereby affecting the proliferation and apoptosis of AML cells.

Our previous study showed that PRSS23 expression is increased in human gastric cancer tissues and PRSS23 knockdown inhibits gastric cancer cell growth. This current study aims to uncover the mechanism underlying PRSS23's involvement in gastric tumorigenesis and progression. We established that PRSS23 influences gastric cancer growth both in vitro and in vivo by modulating the eIF4E-c-Myc axis (eIF4E, p-eIF4E, 4EBP1, p-4EBP1, and c-Myc). Our investigation revealed that PRSS23 interacts with eIF4E via its trypsin domain, while eIF4E binds to PRSS23 through the amino acid residue S209, as confirmed by co-IP and immunofluorescence assays. Multiplexed immunofluorescence assay demonstrated a significant elevation of PRSS23 and p-4EBP1 levels in 232 paired gastric cancer tissues. Moreover, in 49 patients exhibiting relatively high PRSS23 expression, the levels of eIF4E-c-Myc axis-related proteins were increased. Importantly, higher PRSS23 expression correlated significantly with increased lymph node metastasis and advanced clinical staging, leading to poorer patient prognosis.
