Abstract
BACKGROUND One-third of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients suffer relapse after standard treatment. Eukaryotic initiation factor 3a (eIF3a) is a key player in the initial stage of translation, which has been widely reported to be correlated with tumorigenesis and therapeutic response. This study aimed to explore the biological role of eIF3a, evaluate its prognostic and therapeutic potential in DLBCL. METHODS RNA-seq datasets from GEO database were utilized to detect the expression and prognostic role of eIF3a in DLBCL patients. Protein level of eIF3a was estimated by western blot and immunohistochemical. Next, DLBCL cells were transfected with lentiviral vector either eIF3a-knockdown or empty to assess the biological role of eIF3a. Then, samples were divided into 2 clusters based on eIF3a expression and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified. Function enrichment and mutation analysis of DEGs were employed to detect potential biological roles. Moreover, we also applied pan-cancer and chemosensitivity analysis for deep exploration. RESULTS eIF3a expression was found to be higher in DLBCL than healthy controls, which was associated with worse prognosis. The expression of eIF3a protein was significantly increased in DLBCL cell lines compared with peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from healthy donors. eIF3a knockdown inhibited the proliferation of DLBCL cells and the expression of proliferation-related proteins and increase cell apoptosis rate. Besides, 114 DEGs were identified which had a close linkage to cell cycle and tumor immune. eIF3a and DEGs mutations were found to be correlated to chemosensitivity and vital signal pathways. Pan-cancer analysis demonstrated that high eIF3a expression was associated with worse prognosis in several tumors. Moreover, eIF3a expression was found to be related to chemosensitivity of several anti-tumor drugs in DLBCL, including Vincristine and Wee1 inhibitor. CONCLUSIONS We firstly revealed the high expression and prognostic role of eIF3a in DLBCL, and eIF3a might promote the development of DLBCL through regulating cell proliferation and apoptosis. eIF3a expression was related to immune profile and chemosensitivity in DLBCL. These results suggest that eIF3a could serve as a potential prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target in DLBCL.

Abstract
Anthracyclines, topoisomerase II enzyme poisons that cause DNA damage, are the mainstay of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treatment. However, acquired resistance to anthracyclines leads to relapse, which currently lacks effective treatment and is the cause of poor survival in individuals with AML. Therefore, the identification of the mechanisms underlying anthracycline resistance remains an unmet clinical need. Here, using patient-derived primary cultures and clinically relevant cellular models that recapitulate acquired anthracycline resistance in AML, we have found that GCN5 (also known as KAT2A) mediates transcriptional upregulation of DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs) in AML relapse, independently of the DNA-damage response. We demonstrate that anthracyclines fail to induce DNA damage in resistant cells, owing to the loss of expression of their target enzyme, TOP2B; this was caused by DNA-PKcs directly binding to its promoter upstream region as a transcriptional repressor. Importantly, DNA-PKcs kinase activity inhibition re-sensitized AML relapse primary cultures and cells resistant to mitoxantrone, and abrogated their tumorigenic potential in a xenograft mouse model. Taken together, our findings identify a GCN5-DNA-PKcs-TOP2B transcriptional regulatory axis as the mechanism underlying anthracycline resistance, and demonstrate the therapeutic potential of DNA-PKcs inhibition to re-sensitize resistant AML relapse cells to anthracycline.

Abstract
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 subunit A (eIF3a) is the largest subunit of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 (eIF3). eIF3a plays an integral role in protein biosynthesis, hence impacting the onset, development, and treatment of tumors. The proteins regulated by eIF3a are still being explored in vivo. In this study, a Cre-loxP system was used to generate eIF3a conditional knockout mice. Tandem mass tag (TMT) labeling with LC-MS/MS analysis was used to identify differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in fat, lungs, skin, and spleen tissue of the eIF3a knockout mice and controls. Bioinformatics analysis was then used to explore the functions and molecular signaling pathways of these protein landscapes. It was observed that eIF3a is essential for life sustenance. Abnormal tissue pathology was found in the lungs, fat, skin, spleen, and thymus. In total, 588, 210, 324, and 944 DEPs were quantified in the lungs, fat, skin, and spleen, respectively, of the eIF3a knockout mice as compared to the control. The quantified differentially expressed proteins were tissue-specific, except for eight proteins shared by the four tissues. A broad range of functions for eIF3a, including cellular signaling pathway, immune response, metabolism, defense response, phagocytes, and DNA replication, has been revealed using bioinformatics analysis. Herein, several pathways related to oxidative stress in the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) database, including nitrogen metabolism, peroxisome, cytochrome P450 drug metabolism, pyruvate metabolism, PPAR signaling pathway, phospholipase D signaling pathway, B-cell receptor signaling pathway, ferroptosis, and focal adhesion, have been identified. Collectively, this study shows that eIF3a is an essential gene for sustaining life, and its downstream proteins are involved in diverse novel functions beyond mRNA translational regulation.

Abstract
The anticancer efficacy of chemotherapeutic agents can be enhanced by the loading of DNA nanostructures, which is closely related to their interactions. This study achieved pH-responsive and targeted anthracycline delivery using i-motif and MUC1 aptamer co-modified DNA tetrahedron (MUC1-TD). The thermodynamic parameters for the binding of doxorubicin (DOX) and epirubicin (EPI) to MUC1-TD at pHs 7.4 and 5.0 were obtained. The smaller binding constant and the number of binding sites at pH 5.0 than at pH 7.4 indicated that acidic conditions favored the release of DOX and EPI loaded by MUC1-TD. The binding affinity of DOX was stronger than that of EPI at the same pH value due to their different chemical stereostructures. The intercalative binding mechanism was verified. In vitro release experiments revealed that acid pH and deoxyribonuclease I accelerated the release of DOX and EPI. The faster release rate of EPI than DOX was related to their binding affinity. In vitro cytotoxicity and cell uptake experiments revealed that the cytotoxicity of DOX and EPI loaded by MUC1-TD to MCF-7 cells was significantly higher than that to L02 cells. This work will provide theoretical guidance for the application of pH-responsive MUC1-TD nanocarriers in the field of pharmaceutics.

Abstract
Colorectal diseases are threatening human health, especially inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and colorectal cancer (CRC). IBD is a group of chronic, recurrent and incurable disease, which may affect the entire gastrointestinal tract, increasing the risk of CRC. Eukaryotic gene expression is a complicated process, which is mainly regulated at the level of gene transcription and mRNA translation. Protein translation in tissue is associated with a sequence of steps, including initiation, elongation, termination and recycling. Abnormal regulation of gene expression is the key to the pathogenesis of CRC. In the early stages of cancer, it is vital to identify new diagnostic and therapeutic targets and biomarkers. This review presented current knowledge on aberrant expression of eIFs, eEFs and eRFs in colorectal diseases. The current findings of protein synthesis on colorectal pathogenesis showed that eIFs, eEFs and eRFs may be potential targets for CRC treatment.

eIF3a regulation of mTOR signaling and translational control via HuR in cellular response to DNA damage. Oncogene 2022; 41:2431-2443.

Abstract
eIF3a (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3a), a subunit of the eIF3 complex, has been suggested to play a regulatory role in protein synthesis and in cellular response to DNA-damaging treatments. S6K1 is an effector and a mediator of mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) in regulating protein synthesis and integrating diverse signals into control of cell growth and response to stress. Here, we show that eIF3a regulates S6K1 activity by inhibiting mTORC1 kinase via regulating Raptor synthesis. The regulation of Raptor synthesis is via eIF3a interaction with HuR (human antigen R) and binding of the eIF3a-HuR complex to the 5'-UTR of Raptor mRNA. Furthermore, mTORC1 may mediate eIF3a function in cellular response to cisplatin by regulating synthesis of NER proteins and NER activity. Taken together, we conclude that the mTOR signaling pathway may also be regulated by translational control and mediate eIF3a regulation of cancer cell response to cisplatin by regulating NER protein synthesis.

Abstract
Tumor metastasis is the major cause of tumor relapse and cancer-associated mortality in colorectal cancer, leading to poor therapeutic responses and reduced survival. eIF3a was previously described as an oncogene. However, its role in colorectal cancer progression and metastasis has not yet been fully investigated. In this study, the expression specificity and predictive value of eIF3a were investigated in clinical samples. The effects of eIF3a on cell proliferation and migration were verified in vivo and in vitro, respectively. The underlying molecular mechanism was revealed by western blotting, immunofluorescence, RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation, and dual-luciferase reporter gene assays. The results showed that eIF3a was significantly overexpressed in tumor tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues. High eIF3a expression was correlated with tumor metastasis and overall survival. Downregulation of eIF3a obviously inhibited the proliferation and motility of malignant cells in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, eIF3a regulates Cdc42 and RhoA expression at the translation level, which further affects pseudopodia formation and actin cytoskeleton remodeling. Taken together, eIF3a accelerates the acquisition of the migratory phenotype of cancer cells by activating Cdc42 and RhoA expression at the translational level. Our study identified eIF3a as a promising target for inhibiting colorectal cancer metastasis.

Abstract
Objectives The individual differences and pervasive resistance seriously hinder the optimization of irinotecan‐based therapeutic effectiveness. Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3a (eIF3a) plays a key role in tumour occurrence, prognosis and therapeutic response. This study focused on the role of eIF3a in irinotecan‐induced DNA damage response. Materials and Methods The cck8 cell viability and clone survival analyses were used to test the regulatory role of eIF3a on irinotecan sensitivity in HT29 and CACO2 cell lines in vitro. This regulatory role was also verified in vivo by conducting subcutaneous xenograft model. Irinotecan‐induced DNA damage, cell cycle arrest and apoptosis were tested by flow cytometry analysis, TUNEL staining, western blot and comet assays. The immunofluorescence, co‐IP, luciferase reporter assay, RIP and flow cytometric analyses were carried out to investigate the underline mechanism. Results We demonstrated that eIF3a continuously activates ATM/ATR signal by translationally inhibiting PPP2R5A, a phosphatase that directly dephosphorylates and inactivates ATM/ATR after DNA repair complete. Suppression of PPP2R5A resulted in chronic ATM/ATR phosphorylation and activation, impairing DNA repair and enhancing irinotecan sensitivity. Conclusions Our study suggested eIF3a with a high potential to influence phenotypic functions, which may contribute substantially to the early identification of susceptible individuals and the provision of personalized medication to irinotecan‐treated patients.
