Epigenetic alterations of TP53INP1 by EHMT2 regulate the cell cycle in gastric cancer.
Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is a type of cancer with high incidence and mortality rates. Although various chemical interventions are being developed to treat gastric cancer, there is a constant demand for research into new GC treatment targets and modes of action (MOAs) because of the low effectiveness and side effects of current treatments.
Methods: Using the TCGA data portal, we identified EHMT2 overexpression in GC samples. Using RNA-seq and EHMT2-specific siRNA, we investigated the role of EHMT2 in GC cell proliferation and validated its function with two EHMT2-specific inhibitors. Through the application of 3D spheroid culture, patient-derived gastric cancer organoids (PDOs), and an in vivo model, we confirmed the role of EHMT2 in GC cell proliferation.
Results: In this study, we found that EHMT2, a histone 3 lysine 9 (H3K9) methyltransferase, is significantly overexpressed in GC patients compared with healthy individuals. Knockdown of EHMT2 with siRNA induced G1 cell cycle arrest and attenuated GC cell proliferation. Furthermore, we confirmed that TP53INP1 induction by EHMT2 knockdown induced cell cycle arrest and inhibited GC cell proliferation. Moreover, specific EHMT2 inhibitors, BIX01294 and UNC0638, induced cell cycle arrest in GC cell lines through TP53INP1 upregulation. The efficacy of EHMT2 inhibition was further confirmed in a 3D spheroid culture system, PDOs, and a xenograft model.
Conclusions: Our findings suggest that EHMT2 is an attractive therapeutic target for GC treatment.
期刊介绍：
Experimental Hematology & Oncology is an open access journal that encompasses all aspects of hematology and oncology with an emphasis on preclinical, basic, patient-oriented and translational research. The journal acts as an international platform for sharing laboratory findings in these areas and makes a deliberate effort to publish clinical trials with 'negative' results and basic science studies with provocative findings.
Experimental Hematology & Oncology publishes original work, hypothesis, commentaries and timely reviews. With open access and rapid turnaround time from submission to publication, the journal strives to be a hub for disseminating new knowledge and discussing controversial topics for both basic scientists and busy clinicians in the closely related fields of hematology and oncology.
