Comb Chem High Throughput Screen 2024; 27:203-213. [PMID: 37114782 DOI: 10.2174/1386207326666230419080531] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2022] [Revised: 02/01/2023] [Accepted: 02/23/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The nucleoplasmin/nucleophosmin (NPM) family was previously regarded as a critical regulator during disease development, and its mediation in carcinogenesis has achieved intensive attention recently. However, the clinical importance and functional mechanism of NPM3 in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) have not been reported yet. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the role and clinical significance of NPM3 in the development and progression of LUAD, including the underlying mechanisms. METHODS The expression of NPM3 in pan-cancer was analyzed via GEPIA. The effect of NPM3 on prognosis was analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier plotter and the PrognoScan database. In vitro, cell transfection, RT-qPCR, CCK-8 assay, and wound healing assay were employed to examine the role of NPM3 in A549 and H1299 cells. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was performed using the R software package to analyze the tumor hallmark pathway and KEGG pathway of NPM3. The transcription factors of NPM3 were predicted based on the ChIP-Atlas database. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was applied to verify the transcriptional regulatory factor of the NPM3 promoter region. RESULTS The NPM3 expression was found to be markedly higher in the LUAD tumor group than the normal group and to be positively correlated with poor prognosis, tumor stages, and radiation therapy. In vitro, the knockdown of NPM3 greatly inhibited the proliferation and migration of A549 and H1299 cells. Mechanistically, GSEA predicted that NPM3 activated the oncogenic pathways. Further, the NPM3 expression was found to be positively correlated with cell cycle, DNA replication, G2M checkpoint, HYPOXIA, MTORC1 signaling, glycolysis, and MYC targets. Besides, MYC targeted the promoter region of NPM3 and contributed to the enhanced expression of NPM3 in LUAD. CONCLUSION The overexpression of NPM3 is an unfavorable prognostic biomarker participating in oncogenic pathways of LUAD via MYC translational activation and it contributes to tumor progression. Thus, NPM3 could be a novel target for LUAD therapy.

Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24076031. [PMID: 37047003 PMCID: PMC10094375 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24076031] [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: 02/15/2023] [Revised: 03/08/2023] [Accepted: 03/16/2023] [Indexed: 04/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Oxidative stress is associated with several acute and chronic disorders, including hematological malignancies such as acute myeloid leukemia, the most prevalent acute leukemia in adults. Xenobiotics are usually harmless compounds that may be detrimental, such as pharmaceuticals, environmental pollutants, cosmetics, and even food additives. The storage of xenobiotics can serve as a defense mechanism or a means of bioaccumulation, leading to adverse effects. During the absorption, metabolism, and cellular excretion of xenobiotics, three steps may be distinguished: (i) inflow by transporter enzymes, (ii) phases I and II, and (iii) phase III. Phase I enzymes, such as those in the cytochrome P450 superfamily, catalyze the conversion of xenobiotics into more polar compounds, contributing to an elevated acute myeloid leukemia risk. Furthermore, genetic polymorphism influences the variability and susceptibility of related myeloid neoplasms, infant leukemias associated with mixed-lineage leukemia (MLL) gene rearrangements, and a subset of de novo acute myeloid leukemia. Recent research has shown a sustained interest in determining the regulators of cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily E, member 1 (CYP2E1) expression and activity as an emerging field that requires further investigation in acute myeloid leukemia evolution. Therefore, this review suggests that CYP2E1 and its mutations can be a therapeutic or diagnostic target in acute myeloid leukemia.

Abstract
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is driven by mutations that occur in numerous combinations. A better understanding of how mutations interact with one another to cause disease is critical to developing targeted therapies. Approximately 50% of patients that harbor a common mutation in NPM1 (NPM1cA) also have a mutation in the cohesin complex. As cohesin and Npm1 are known to regulate gene expression, we sought to determine how cohesin mutation alters the transcriptome in the context of NPM1cA. We utilized inducible Npm1cAflox/+ and core cohesin subunit Smc3flox/+ mice to examine AML development. While Npm1cA/+;Smc3Δ/+ mice developed AML with a similar latency and penetrance as Npm1cA/+ mice, RNA-seq suggests that the Npm1cA/+; Smc3Δ/+ mutational combination uniquely alters the transcriptome. We found that the Rac1/2 nucleotide exchange factor Dock1 was specifically upregulated in Npm1cA/+;Smc3Δ/+ HSPCs. Knockdown of Dock1 resulted in decreased growth and adhesion and increased apoptosis only in Npm1cA/+;Smc3Δ/+ AML. Higher Rac activity was also observed in Npm1cA/+;Smc3Δ/+ vs. Npm1cA/+ AMLs. Importantly, the Dock1/Rac pathway is targetable in Npm1cA/+;Smc3Δ/+ AMLs. Our results suggest that Dock1/Rac represents a potential target for the treatment of patients harboring NPM1cA and cohesin mutations and supports the use of combinatorial genetics to identify novel precision oncology targets.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer is a malignant tumor that begins in the colorectal mucosal epithelium. NPM1 is a nucleolar phosphoprotein that has been linked to tumor progression in humans. NPM1 is significantly overexpressed in a variety of tumors, including colorectal cancer, but its role and mechanism in colorectal cancer remain unknown. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to discover the role of NPM1 in promoting colorectal cancer proliferation via PRDX6 and its molecular mechanism. NPM1 knockdown or overexpression inhibited or promoted the proliferation and cell cycle progression of HCT-116 and HT-29 colorectal cancer cells, respectively, according to our findings. Furthermore, NPM1 knockdown or overexpression increased or decreased intracellular ROS levels. Animal experiments revealed that NPM1 knockdown or overexpression inhibited or promoted the growth of colorectal cancer cells transplanted subcutaneously. NPM1 knockdown or overexpression reduced or increased PRDX6 expression and related enzyme activities, respectively, according to our findings. NPM1 formed a complex with CBX3 as evidenced by immunoprecipitation, and the double luciferase reporter gene assay confirmed that the CBX3-NPM1 complex promoted PRDX6 transcription. Our data support the role of NPM1 in promoting the proliferation of colorectal cancer, which may be accomplished by CBX3 promoting the expression of the antioxidant protein PRDX6 and thus inhibiting intracellular ROS levels. NPM1 and PRDX6 are potential colorectal cancer therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Gene fusions are known to drive many human cancers. Therefore, the functional characterization of newly discovered fusions is critical to understanding the oncobiology of these tumors and to enable therapeutic development. NPM1–TYK2 is a novel fusion identified in CD30 + lymphoproliferative disorders, and here we present the functional evaluation of this fusion gene as an oncogene. The chimeric protein consists of the amino-terminus of nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) and the carboxyl-terminus of tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2), including the kinase domain. Using in vitro lymphoid cell transformation assays and in vivo tumorigenic xenograft models we present direct evidence that the fusion gene is an oncogene. NPM1 fusion partner provides the critical homodimerization needed for the fusion kinase constitutive activation and downstream signaling that are responsible for cell transformation. As a result, our studies identify NPM1–TYK2 as a novel fusion oncogene and suggest that inhibition of fusion homodimerization could be a precision therapeutic approach in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma patients expressing this chimera.

Abstract
The tumor suppressor IKAROS binds and represses multiple NOTCH target genes. For their induction upon NOTCH signaling, IKAROS is removed and replaced by NOTCH Intracellular Domain (NICD)-associated proteins. However, IKAROS remains associated to other NOTCH activated genes upon signaling and induction. Whether IKAROS could participate to the induction of this second group of NOTCH activated genes is unknown. We analyzed the combined effect of IKAROS abrogation and NOTCH signaling on the expression of NOTCH activated genes in erythroid cells. In IKAROS-deleted cells, we observed that many of these genes were either overexpressed or no longer responsive to NOTCH signaling. IKAROS is then required for the organization of bivalent chromatin and poised transcription of NOTCH activated genes belonging to either of the aforementioned groups. Furthermore, we show that IKAROS-dependent poised organization of the NOTCH target Cdkn1a is also required for its adequate induction upon genotoxic insults. These results highlight the critical role played by IKAROS in establishing bivalent chromatin and transcriptional poised state at target genes for their activation by NOTCH or other stress signals. NOTCH1 deregulation can favor hematological malignancies. In addition to RBP-Jκ/NICD/MAML1, other regulators are required for the measured activation of NOTCH target genes. IKAROS is a known repressor of many NOTCH targets. Since it can also favor transcriptional activation and control gene expression levels, we questioned whether IKAROS could participate to the activation of specific NOTCH target genes. We are reporting that upon NOTCH induction, the absence of IKAROS impairs the measured activation of two groups of NOTCH target genes: (i) those overexpressed and characterized by an additive effect imposed by the absence of IKAROS and NOTCH induction; and (ii) those ‘desensitized’ and no more activated by NOTCH. At genes of both groups, IKAROS controls the timely recruitment of the chromatin remodelers CHD4 and BRG1. IKAROS then influences the activation of these genes through the organization of chromatin and poised transcription or through transcriptional elongation control. The importance of the IKAROS controlled and measured activation of genes is not limited to NOTCH signaling as it also characterizes Cdkn1a expression upon genotoxic stress. Thus, these results provide a new perspective on the importance of IKAROS for the adequate cellular response to stress, whether imposed by NOTCH or genotoxic insults.

Abstract
Ribosomes are mandatory for growth and survival. The complex process of ribosome biogenesis is located in nucleoli and requires action of the RNA polymerases I-III, together with a multitude of processing factors involved in rRNA cleavage and maturation. Impaired ribosome biogenesis and loss of nucleolar integrity triggers nucleolar stress, which classically stabilizes the tumor suppressor p53 and induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Nucleolar stress is implemented in modern anti-cancer therapies, however, also emerges as contributor to diverse pathological conditions. These include ribosomopathies, such as the Shwachman Bodian Diamond Syndrome (SBDS), which are not only characterized by nucleolar stress, but paradoxically also increased cancer incidence. Wnt signaling is tightly coupled to cell proliferation and is constitutively activated in various tumor types. In addition, the Wnt/β-Catenin pathway regulates ribosome formation. Here, we demonstrate that induction of nucleolar stress by different strategies stimulates the Wnt/β-Catenin pathway. We show that depletion of the key ribosomopathy factor SBDS, or the nucleolar factors Nucleophosmin (NPM), Pescadillo 1 (PES1) or Peter Pan (PPAN) by si RNA-mediated knockdown or CRISPR/Cas9 strategy activates Wnt/β-Catenin signaling in a β-Catenin-dependent manner and stabilizes β-Catenin in human cancer cells. Moreover, triggering nucleolar stress by the chemotherapeutic agents Actinomycin D or the RNA polymerase I inhibitor CX-5461 stimulates expression of Wnt/β-Catenin targets, which is followed by the p53 target CDKN1A (p21). As PPAN expression is induced by Wnt/β-Catenin signaling, our data establish a novel feedback mechanism and reveal that nucleolar stress over-activates the Wnt/β-Catenin pathway, which most likely serves as compensatory mechanism to sustain ribosome biogenesis.

Abstract
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a genetically heterogeneous clonal malignancy characterized by recurrent gene mutations. Genomic heterogeneity, patients’ individual variability, and recurrent gene mutations are the major obstacles among many factors that impact treatment efficacy of the AML patients. With the application of cost- and time-effective next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies, an enormous diversity of genetic mutations has been identified. The recurrent gene mutations and their important roles in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) pathogenesis have been studied extensively. In this review, we summarize the recent development on the gene mutation in patients with AML.
