Targeting PUF60 prevents tumor progression by retarding mRNA decay of oxidative phosphorylation in ovarian cancer.
Purpose: Ovarian cancer (OC) is the leading cause of death from gynecological malignancies, and its etiology and pathogenesis are currently unclear. Recent studies have found that PUF60 overexpressed in various cancers. However, the exact function of PUF60 in global RNA processing and its role in OC has been unclear.
Methods: The expression of PUF60 and its relationship with clinical characteristics were analyzed by multiple database analysis and immunohistochemistry. Phenotypic effects of PUF60 on ovarian cancer cell proliferation and metastasis were examined by in vitro cell proliferation assay, migration assay, and in vivo xenograft models and lung metastasis models. RNA immunoprecipitation, seahorse analyses, RNA stability assay were used to study the effect of PUF60 on the stability of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS)-related genes in OC.
Results: We report PUF60 is highly expressed in OC with frequent amplification of up to 33.9% and its upregulation predicts a poor prognosis. PUF60 promotes the proliferation and migration of OC cells both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that silencing of PUF60 enhanced the stability of mRNA transcripts involved in OXPHOS and decreased the formation of processing bodies (P-bodies), ultimately elevating the OXPHOS level.
Conclusion: Our study unveils a novel function of PUF60 in OC energy metabolism. Thus, PUF60 may serve as a novel target for the treatment of patients with OC.
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.
