Expression of acetylated histones H3 and H4 and histone deacetylase enzymes HDAC1, HDAC2 and HDAC6 in simple mammary carcinomas of female dogs. Front Genet 2023; 14:1257932. [PMID: 38028583 PMCID: PMC10666162 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2023.1257932] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2023] [Accepted: 10/05/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Histone deacetylation is an important mechanism involved in human breast cancer tumorigenesis and recent veterinary oncology studies also demonstrate a similar relationship in some canine neoplasms. The use of HDAC inhibitors in vitro and in vivo has demonstrated antitumor action on several strains of human and animal cancers. The present study aims to correlate the expression of H3K9Ac, H4K12Ac, HDAC1, HDAC2 and HDAC6 in simple mammary carcinomas in dogs with clinicopathological parameters and overall survival time. To this end, 61 samples of simple breast carcinomas were analyzed by the immunohistochemistry technique with subsequent validation of the antibodies by the Western Blot technique. The expressions obtained via a semi-quantitative way were categorized by assigning scores and classified into high or low expressions according to the given score, except for HDAC6, when the marking percentage was considered and subdivided into high and low expressions using the median value. For statistical analysis, the chi-square test or Fisher exact test were used as univariate analysis and correspondence analysis as a multivariate test, in addition to the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. In the studied samples, the highest frequencies were determined for the high expression proteins H4K12Ac (88.5%), HDAC2 (65.6%) and HDAC6 (56.7%) and the low expression proteins H3K9Ac (73.8%) and HDAC1 (54.1%). An association between the low expression of HDAC1 and the presence of lymph node metastasis (p = 0.035) was indicated by univariate analysis while the high expression of HDAC1 was associated with favorable prognostic factors, such as the absence of lymph node metastasis and low mitotic index by multivariate analysis. Also, by multivariate analysis, the low expression of HDAC6 was correlated with the low expression of Ki67, smaller tumors, and better prognosis factors as well. Protein expression was not correlated with patients' overall survival time (p > 0.05). The high expressions of HDAC2 and HDAC6 in mammary carcinomas in female dogs may be useful information for research involving therapeutic targets with iHDACs since their inhibition favors hyperacetylation and transcription of tumor suppressor genes.

[PMID: 37760477 PMCID: PMC10527061 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15184508] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2023] [Revised: 08/26/2023] [Accepted: 09/06/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The lack of meaningful and effective early-stage markers remains the major challenge in the diagnosis of gallbladder cancer (GBC) and a huge barrier to timely treatment. Zinc finger protein 64 (ZFP64), a member of the zinc finger protein family, is considered to be a promising predictor in multiple tumors, but its potential effect in GBC still remains unclear. Here, we identified that ZFP64 was a vital regulatory protein in GBC. We found that ZFP64 expressed higher in GBC gallbladder carcinoma tissues than in normal tissues and was positively correlated with poor prognosis. Furthermore, ZFP64 was responsible for the migration, invasion, proliferation, anti-apoptosis, and epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) of GBC cells in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, through Co-IP assay, we confirmed that ZFP64 recruits HDAC1 localized to the promoter region of NUMB for deacetylation and therefore inhibits NUMB expression. The downregulation of NUMB enhanced the activation of the Notch1 signaling pathway, which is indispensable for the GBC-promotion effect of ZFP64 on GBC. In conclusion, ZFP64 regulated GBC progression and metastasis through upregulating the Notch1 signaling pathway, and thus ZFP64 is expected to become a new focus for a GBC prognostic marker and targeted therapy.

ING1 inhibits Twist1 expression to block EMT and is antagonized by the HDAC inhibitor vorinostat. Eur J Cell Biol 2023; 102:151341. [PMID: 37459799 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejcb.2023.151341] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2023] [Revised: 06/28/2023] [Accepted: 07/06/2023] [Indexed: 09/22/2023] Open
Abstract
ING1 is a chromatin targeting subunit of the Sin3a histone deacetylase (HDAC) complex that alters chromatin structure to subsequently regulate gene expression. We find that ING1 knockdown increases expression of Twist1, Zeb 1&2, Snai1, Bmi1 and TSHZ1 drivers of EMT, promoting EMT and cell motility. ING1 expression had the opposite effect, promoting epithelial cell morphology and inhibiting basal and TGF-β-induced motility in 3D organoid cultures. ING1 binds the Twist1 promoter and Twist1 was largely responsible for the ability of ING1 to reduce cell migration. Consistent with ING1 inhibiting Twist1 expression in vivo, an inverse relationship between ING1 and Twist1 levels was seen in breast cancer samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). The HDAC inhibitor vorinostat is approved for treatment of multiple myeloma and cutaneous T cell lymphoma and is in clinical trials for solid tumours as adjuvant therapy. One molecular target of vorinostat is INhibitor of Growth 2 (ING2), that together with ING1 serve as targeting subunits of the Sin3a HDAC complex. Treatment with sublethal (LD25-LD50) levels of vorinostat promoted breast cancer cell migration several-fold, which increased further upon ING1 knockout. These observations indicate that correct targeting of the Sin3a HDAC complex, and HDAC activity in general decreases luminal and basal breast cancer cell motility, suggesting that use of HDAC inhibitors as adjuvant therapies in breast cancers that are prone to metastasize may not be optimal and requires further investigation.

Abstract
The enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) protein is the catalytic subunit of one of the histone methyltransferases. EZH2 catalyzes the trimethylation of lysine 27 of histone H3 (H3K27me3) and further alters downstream target levels. EZH2 is upregulated in cancer tissues, wherein its levels correlate strongly with cancer genesis, progression, metastasis, and invasion. Consequently, it has emerged as a novel anticancer therapeutic target. Nonetheless, developing EZH2 inhibitors (EZH2i) has encountered numerous difficulties, such as pre-clinical drug resistance and poor therapeutic effect. The EZH2i synergistically suppresses cancers when used in combination with additional antitumor drugs, such as PARP inhibitors, HDAC inhibitors, BRD4 inhibitors, EZH1 inhibitors, and EHMT2 inhibitors. Typically, the use of dual inhibitors of two different targets mediated by one individual molecule has been recognized as the preferred approach for overcoming the limitations of EZH2 monotherapy. The present review discusses the theoretical basis for designing EZH2-based dual-target inhibitors, and also describes some in vitro and in vivo analysis results.

Abstract
Simple Summary It has been proposed that highly expressed HDAC1 (histone deacetylases 1) removes the acetyl group from the histones at the promoter regions of tumor suppressor genes to block their expression in tumors. We here revealed the underlying mechanism that HDAC1 differentially regulates the expression of oncogenes and tumor suppressors. In detail, we found that HDAC1 is unable to occupy the promoters of oncogenes but maintains its occupancy with the tumor suppressors due to its interaction with an oncoprotein, CREPT (cell cycle-related and expression-elevated protein in tumor). Abstract Histone deacetylases 1 (HDAC1), an enzyme that functions to remove acetyl molecules from ε-NH3 groups of lysine in histones, eliminates the histone acetylation at the promoter regions of tumor suppressor genes to block their expression during tumorigenesis. However, it remains unclear why HDAC1 fails to impair oncogene expression. Here we report that HDAC1 is unable to occupy at the promoters of oncogenes but maintains its occupancy with the tumor suppressors due to its interaction with CREPT (cell cycle-related and expression-elevated protein in tumor, also named RPRD1B), an oncoprotein highly expressed in tumors. We observed that CREPT competed with HDAC1 for binding to oncogene (such as CCND1, CLDN1, VEGFA, PPARD and BMP4) promoters but not the tumor suppressor gene (such as p21 and p27) promoters by a chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) qPCR experiment. Using immunoprecipitation experiments, we deciphered that CREPT specifically occupied at the oncogene promoter via TCF4, a transcription factor activated by Wnt signaling. In addition, we performed a real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis on cells that stably over-expressed CREPT and/or HDAC1, and we propose that HDAC1 inhibits CREPT to activate oncogene expression under Wnt signaling activation. Our findings revealed that HDAC1 functions differentially on tumor suppressors and oncogenes due to its interaction with the oncoprotein CREPT.

Abstract
It has been recently revealed that Histone Deacetylase (HDAC) 3, a unique member of the HDACs family, can trigger and progress cancers by alternation in genes expression and proteins activity. Epigenetic modifications by HDACs have been studied well in various cancer cells. Recent studies have focused on the HDAC enzymes as a possible target in cancer therapy. There are significant documents on upregulation of HDAC3 in breast cancer (BC) cells which suggest an oncogenic role for this enzyme. Interestingly, some studies showed that HDAC3 inhibition could be considered as a promising target in breast cancer therapy, and thus far, several inhibitors from different nature have been introduced. In this review, we discussed the function and highlight the existing inhibitors of HDAC3 in BC pathogenesis and therapy.

Abstract
Histone acetylation is one of the most common epigenetic modifications, which plays an important role in tumorigenesis. However, the prognostic role of histone acetylation-regulators in ovarian cancer (OC) remains little known. We compared the expression levels of 40 histone acetylation-related genes between 379 OC samples and 88 normal ovarian tissues and identified 37 differently expressed genes (DEGs). We further explored the prognostic roles of these DEGs, and 8 genes were found to be correlated with overall survival (p < 0.1). In the training stage, an 8 gene‐based signature was conducted by the least absolute shrinkage and selector operator (LASSO) Cox regression. Patients in the training cohort were divided into two risk subgroups according to the risk score calculated by the 8-gene signature, and a notable difference of OS was found between the two subgroups (p < 0.001). The 8-gene risk model was then verified to have a well predictive role on OS in the external validation cohort. Combined with the clinical characteristics, the risk score was proved to be an independent risk factor for OS. In conclusion, the histone acetylation-based gene signature has a well predictive effect on the prognosis of OC and can potentially be applied for clinical treatments.

Apoptotic effects of valproic acid on miR-34a, miR-520h and HDAC1 gene in breast cancer. Life Sci 2021; 269:119027.

Abstract
Identifying miRNAs involved in cancer and devising strategies to control their expression is a new therapeutic approach. Valproic acid (VPA) has attracted a lot of interest in cancer research. We evaluated the impact of VPA on the expression of miR-34a, miR-520h, and their target gene histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1), as well as their relationship with apoptosis in breast cancer. First, through bioinformatics analyses, the possible target genes of miR-34a and miR-520h and their roles in apoptosis regulation were investigated. Then, miR-34a, miR-520h, and HDAC1 gene expression in tissues of breast cancer patients were determined using the qRT-PCR method. The anticancer impact of VPA on apoptosis and the expression levels of miR-34a, miR-520h, and HDAC1 gene were measured in MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines. The bioinformatics analyses indicated that miR-34a and miR-520h might make a unique contribution in regulating the apoptosis pathway. The relative expression of miR-34a and miR-520h significantly decreased in cancer tissues, while the relative expression of HDAC1 increased. In the in vitro study, VPA led to apoptosis induction and increased lipid peroxidation products in breast cancer cells. Moreover, VPA increased the expression of miR- 34a and miR-520h and decreased HDAC1 expression in MCF-7 cells. In MDA-MB-231 cells, VPA decreased the expression of these miRNAs and increased the expression of HDAC1. It can be concluded that miR-34a and miR-520h are implicated in the apoptosis pathways, and thus, VPA can recruit as a possible option in breast cancer research due to its interference with epigenetic processes.

Abstract
Purpose Factors associated with invasive recurrence (REC) of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) are less known. This study was aimed at identifying better biomarkers to predict the prognosis of DCIS. Methods RNA extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded blocks of twenty-four pure DCIS cases was subjected to differential gene expression analysis. The DCIS cases were selected by matching age and estrogen receptor status. Sixteen REC-free and 8 invasive-REC cases with disease-free interval of > 5 years were analyzed. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining was used to validate sixty-one independent pure DCIS cases, including invasive-REC (n = 16) and REC-free (n = 45) cases. Results Eight differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were statistically significant (log 2-fold change [FC] < -1 or > 1 and p < 0.001). Less than ½ fold expression of CUL1, androgen receptor (AR), RPS27A, CTNNB1, MAP3K1, PRKACA, GNG12, MGMT genes was observed in the REC group compared to the no evidence of disease group. AR and histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) genes were selected for external validation (AR: log 2-FC - 1.35, p < 0.001, and HDAC1: log 2-FC - 0.774, p < 0.001). External validation showed that the absence of AR and high HDAC1 expression were independent risk factors for invasive REC (hazard ratio [HR], 5.04; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.24-20.4; p = 0.023 and HR, 3.07; 95% CI, 1.04-9.04; p = 0.042). High nuclear grade 3 was also associated with long-term invasive REC. Conclusion Comparative gene expression analysis of pure DCIS revealed 8 DEGs among recurring cases. External validation with IHC suggested that the absence of AR and overexpression of HDAC1 are associated with a greater risk of long-term invasive REC of pure DCIS.

[PMID: 32536999 PMCID: PMC7282189 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2020.8697] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2019] [Accepted: 03/03/2020] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
The present study analyzed the expression of the histone deacetylase (HDAC) 1, 2 and 3 in primary esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) samples and how their levels correlate with clinicopathological parameters. ESCC patients (n=88) in the present study had received no previous treatment before undergoing surgical excision. The mRNA expression of HDAC1, -2 and -3 were detected by semi-quantified PCR in ESCC samples and distal normal samples. The relationship of HDAC1, -2 and -3 expression with clinicopathological parameters was analyzed by χ2 test. The correlation among these HDACs was analyzed by Pearson's correlation test. Compared with distal normal tissues, ESCC samples had higher expression of HDAC1, but not HDAC2 or HDAC3 (P<0.05). The expression of HDACs was different between Kazak and Han ethnicities. The expression of HDAC2 was correlated with invasion depth (P<0.05), but not with sex, age, metastasis, or the degree of tumor differentiation (P>0.05). There was no association between HDAC1 or HDAC3 and clinicopathological parameters (P>0.05). For the Kazak and Han ethnicities, HDAC1 expression was present in male patients, patients with well/moderate differentiated ESCC and T3 and T4 ESCC (P<0.01). HDAC1 in patients aged <60 was associated with ethnicity (P<0.05). HDAC2 expression was different in positive LN metastasis, well/moderate differentiation and T3 and T4 ESCC (P<0.01). HDAC3 expression in male patients, patients with negative LN metastasis and well/moderate differentiation ESCC was associated with ethnicity (P<0.05). Additionally, the expression levels of HDAC1, -2 and -3 did not correlate with each other. Thus, HDAC1 expression may be used as a risk factor for ESCC and HDAC2 levels may be used to predict invasion depth. The expression of HDAC1, -2 and -3 has ethnic differences.

[PMID: 32637573 PMCID: PMC7321822 DOI: 10.1016/j.omto.2020.05.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2020] [Accepted: 05/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignant tumor. LukS-PV is the S component of Panton-Valetine leukocidin (PVL), which is secreted by Staphylococcus aureus. This study investigated the effects of LukS-PV on the proliferation, apoptosis, and cell-cycle progression of HCC cells and the mechanisms of its activity. The HCC cells were treated with different LukS-PV concentrations in vitro. Cell Counting Kit-8 and 5-Ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) assays were used to study cell proliferation. Flow cytometry was used to measure apoptosis and cell-cycle progression. Quantitative reverse transcriptase PCR and western blot assays were used to determine mRNA and protein expression levels. Xenograft experiments were performed to determine the in vivo antitumor effect of LukS-PV. Immunostaining was performed to analyze Ki-67 and HDAC2 (histone deacetylase 2) expression. Our results showed that LukS-PV inhibited cell proliferation and induced apoptosis in a concentration-dependent manner in HCC cell lines. LukS-PV also can induce cell-cycle arrest. Moreover, we discovered that LukS-PV attenuated HDAC2 expression and upregulated PTEN; phosphorylated AKT was also reduced. Further studies demonstrated that LukS-PV treatment significantly reduced tumor growth in nude mice and suppressed Ki-67 and HDAC2 levels. Our data revealed a vital role of LukS-PV in suppressing HCC progression by downregulating HDAC2 and upregulating PTEN.

Abstract
Background: Previous data have shown the tumorigenicity roles of HDAC8 in breast cancer. More recently, the oncogenic effects of this molecule have been revealed in TNBC. The present study aimed to determine the diagnostic value of HDAC8 for the differentiation of TNBC from nTNBC tumors. Methods: A total of 50 cancerous and normal adjacent tumor specimens were obtained, and the clinical and pathological findings of studied subjects were recorded. The expression of HDAC8 gene was determined by qRT-PCR. Also, immunohistochemical staining was performed on tissue samples. Results: Our results showed that the expression of HDAC8 in breast cancer tissues was significantly higher than the normal adjacent tissues (p = 0.0011). HDAC8 expression was also observed to be higher in TNBC patients than nTNBC group (p = 0.0013). In addition, in the TNBC group, there was a significant association between the HDAC8 overexpression and tumor characteristics, including tumor size (p = 0.039), lymphatic invasion (p = 0.01), tumor grade (p = 0.02), and perineural invasion (p < 0.05). The cut-off value was fixed at 0.6279 r.u., and the corresponding sensitivity and specificity were found to be 73.91% and 70.37%, respectively. Conclusion: According to the findings, among the other markers, HDAC8 oncogene may be used as a potential tumor marker in diagnosis of TNBC tumors.
