Abstract
Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most prevalent malignant tumors. The alternation of microRNA (miRNA) expression is associated with prostate cancer progression, whereas its way to influence progression of prostate cancer remains elusive. The expression levels of PRDM16 mRNA and miR-372-3p in PCa cell lines were analyzed using qRT-PCR. The protein expression of PRDM16 in PCa cell lines was also analyzed using western blot. CCK-8, wound healing, and Transwell assays were applied to examine cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in prostate cancer cells, respectively. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was utilized to validate the interaction between miR-372-3p and PRDM16. In the present study, markedly decreased PRDM16 mRNA and protein expression levels were observed in prostate cancer cells. PRDM16 overexpression hampered cellular proliferation, migration, and invasion, while silencing PRDM16 had the opposite effect. Moreover, miR-372-3p could target the regulation expression of PRDM16. Rescue experiments demonstrated that upregulating miR-372-3p conspicuously restored the inhibitory effect of increased PRDM16 on cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in PCa. Overall, our study clarifies the biological role of miR-372-3p/PRDM16 axis in prostate cancer progression, which may be effective biomarkers for clinical treatment of prostate cancer.

Ren Y, Wang Y, Fang L, Ma M, Ge L, Su C, Xin L, He J, Yang J, Liu X. Deregulation of PRDM5 promotes cell proliferation by regulating JAK/STAT signaling pathway through SOCS1 in human lung adenocarcinoma. Cancer Med 2023; 12:4568-4578. [PMID: 36127737 PMCID: PMC9972168 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.5251] [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: 04/21/2022] [Revised: 07/19/2022] [Accepted: 09/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND PRDM5 is considered a tumor suppressor in several types of solid tumors and is involved in multiple cellular processes. However, target genes regulated by PRDM5 in lung cancer and its potential mechanism are poorly defined. METHODS Survival analysis was conducted using Kaplan-Meier estimates based on the online databases. RNA-sequencing and bioinformatics analysis were performed to identify the differentially expressed genes in PRDM5-overexpressed A549 cells. RESULTS We observed deregulated PRDM5 in several lung adenocarcinoma cell lines and its association with a poor prognosis. PRDM5 overexpression inhibited the proliferation of lung adenocarcinoma cells in vitro and suppressed tumor growth in a xenograft model. PRDM5 upregulated the promoter activity of SOCS1, which then inhibited the phosphorylation of JAK2 and STAT3. CONCLUSIONS Our study suggests that the low expression of PRDM5 promotes the proliferation of lung adenocarcinoma cells by downregulating SOCS1 and then upregulating the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) is a common malignant tumor in the digestive system and a significant health burden worldwide. In this study, we found that hsa-let-7d-5p was upregulated in GC cells, promoted GC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, and reduced apoptosis. Moreover, we found that the expression of PRDM5 (PR domain protein 5) was downregulated in GC cells and upregulated in GC cells treated with hsa-let-7d-5p inhibitor. Further investigation showed that hsa-let-7d-5p was the target of PRDM5, and the functions of hsa-let-7d-5p on GC progression were rescued by PRDM5 overexpression in GC cells. Collectively, our findings suggested that hsa-let-7d-5p promoted the development of GC by targeting PRDM5, indicating that hsa-let-7d-5p could be a promising therapeutic molecule for the treatment of gastric cancer.

MECOM/PRDM3 and PRDM16 Serve as Prognostic-Related Biomarkers and Are Correlated With Immune Cell Infiltration in Lung Adenocarcinoma. Front Oncol 2022; 12:772686.

Abstract
Background The MDS1 and EVI1 complex locus (MECOM, also called PRDM3) and PR domain containing 16 (PRDM16) are two highly related zinc finger transcription factors associated with many malignancies. However, the mechanisms of MECOM and PRDM16 in prognosis and tumor immune infiltration in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remain uncertain. Methods The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), Oncomine, UALCAN, GEPIA, and TIMER databases were searched to determine the relationship between the expression of MECOM and PRDM16, clinicopathological features, immune infiltration, and prognosis in LUAD. Coexpressed genes of the two genes were investigated by CBioPortal, and the potential mechanism of MECOM- and PRDM16-related genes was elucidated by GO and KEGG analyses. STRING database was utilized to further construct the protein-protein interaction network of the coexpressed genes, and the hub genes were identified by Cytoscape. Finally, qRT-PCR was performed to identify the mRNA levels of the target genes in LUAD. Results mRNA levels of MECOM and PRDM16 were downregulated in LUAD (p < 0.05), and the low expression of the two genes was associated with the age, gender, smoking duration, tissue subtype, poor stage, nodal metastasis status, TP53 mutation, and prognosis in LUAD (p < 0.05). MECOM and PRDM16 were also found to be correlated with the expression of a variety of immune cell subsets and their markers. KEGG analysis showed that both of them were mainly enriched in the cell cycle, cellular senescence, DNA replication, and p53 signaling pathway. Importantly, the mRNA levels of the two genes were also found to be decreased in the clinical samples of LUAD by qRT-PCR. Conclusion MECOM and PRDM16 may serve as potential prognostic biomarkers which govern immune cell recruitment to LUAD.

Abstract
PRDF1 and RIZ1 homology domain containing (PRDMs) are a subfamily of Krüppel-like zinc finger proteins controlling key processes in metazoan development and in cancer. PRDMs exhibit unique dualities: (a) PR domain/ZNF arrays-their structure combines a SET-like domain known as a PR domain, typically found in methyltransferases, with a variable array of C2H2 zinc fingers (ZNF) characteristic of DNA-binding transcription factors; (b) transcriptional activators/repressors-their physiological function is context- and cell-dependent; mechanistically, some PRDMs have a PKMT activity and directly catalyze histone lysine methylation, while others are rather pseudomethyltransferases and act by recruiting transcriptional cofactors; (c) oncogenes/tumor suppressors-their pathological function depends on the specific PRDM isoform expressed during tumorigenesis. This duality is well known as the 'Yin and Yang' of PRDMs and involves a complex regulation of alternative splicing or alternative promoter usage, to generate full-length or PR-deficient isoforms with opposing functions in cancer. In conclusion, once their dualities are fully appreciated, PRDMs represent a promising class of targets in oncology by virtue of their widespread upregulation across multiple tumor types and their somatic dispensability, conferring a broad therapeutic window and limited toxic side effects. The recent discovery of a first-in-class compound able to inhibit PRDM9 activity has paved the way for the identification of further small molecular inhibitors able to counteract PRDM oncogenic activity.

Abstract
Recent studies have reported that aberrant PR domain zinc finger protein 14 (PRDM14) expression is associated with the therapeutic sensitivity of cancer cells to drugs. However, its role in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains unclear. The present study aimed to determine the functions of knockdown or overexpression of PRDM14 in the chemosensitivity and glycolysis of LUAD cells. PRDM14 expression was analyzed in lung cancer tissues from patients resistant and sensitive to cisplatin (DDP), as well as in LUAD cell lines A549 and DDP-resistant A549 (A549/DDP) using reverse transcription quantitative-PCR and western blotting. Additionally, apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry, and flow cytometry and biochemical analysis was used to analyze glycolysis, indicated by glucose uptake and lactate release. The results of the present study demonstrated that PRDM14 expression was upregulated in patients with DDP-resistant LUAD and DDP-resistant cell lines. Overexpression of PRDM14 suppressed the sensitivity of A549 cells to DDP and silencing of PRDM14 using shRNA targeting PRDM14 promoted the sensitivity of A549/DDP cells to DDP, compared with that in the respective control groups. In mice with xenograft tumors, knockdown of PRDM14 using shRNA targeting PRDM14 inhibited the A549/DDP cell-derived tumor growth compared with scramble shRNA. The results of the glycolysis assays demonstrated that PRDM14 silencing inhibited glucose uptake, lactate release and glucose transporter 1 expression in A549/DDP cells compared with those in the control cells. PRDM14 overexpression relieved the inhibitory effects of 3-bromopyruvate, a potent glycolytic inhibitor for glycolysis, on glucose uptake and lactate release in A549 cells compared with those in the control cells. Therefore, the results of the present study suggested that PRDM14 may inhibit the chemosensitivity and promote glycolysis in human LUAD cells.

Emerging Roles of PRDM Factors in Stem Cells and Neuronal System: Cofactor Dependent Regulation of PRDM3/16 and FOG1/2 (Novel PRDM Factors). Cells 2020; 9:cells9122603.

Abstract
PRDI-BF1 (positive regulatory domain I-binding factor 1) and RIZ1 (retinoblastoma protein-interacting zinc finger gene 1) (PR) homologous domain containing (PRDM) transcription factors are expressed in neuronal and stem cell systems, and they exert multiple functions in a spatiotemporal manner. Therefore, it is believed that PRDM factors cooperate with a number of protein partners to regulate a critical set of genes required for maintenance of stem cell self-renewal and differentiation through genetic and epigenetic mechanisms. In this review, we summarize recent findings about the expression of PRDM factors and function in stem cell and neuronal systems with a focus on cofactor-dependent regulation of PRDM3/16 and FOG1/2. We put special attention on summarizing the effects of the PRDM proteins interaction with chromatin modulators (NuRD complex and CtBPs) on the stem cell characteristic and neuronal differentiation. Although PRDM factors are known to possess intrinsic enzyme activity, our literature analysis suggests that cofactor-dependent regulation of PRDM3/16 and FOG1/2 is also one of the important mechanisms to orchestrate bidirectional target gene regulation. Therefore, determining stem cell and neuronal-specific cofactors will help better understanding of PRDM3/16 and FOG1/2-controlled stem cell maintenance and neuronal differentiation. Finally, we discuss the clinical aspect of these PRDM factors in different diseases including cancer. Overall, this review will help further sharpen our knowledge of the function of the PRDM3/16 and FOG1/2 with hopes to open new research fields related to these factors in stem cell biology and neuroscience.

Abstract
Background Many studies have reported the presence of Positive Regulatory/Su(var)3-9, Enhancer-of-zeste and Trithorax Domain 2 (PRDM2) downregulation in cancer. However, its potential as a diagnostic biomarker is still unclear. Hence, a systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to address this issue. Introduction As of 2018, cancer has become the second leading cause of death worldwide. Thus, cancer control is exceptionally vital in reducing mortality. One such example is through early diagnosis of cancer using tumor biomarkers. Having a function as a tumor suppressor gene (TSG), PRDM2 has been linked with carcinogenesis in several solid tumor. This study aims to assess the relationship between PRDM2 downregulation and solid tumor, its relationship with clinicopathological data, and its potential as a diagnostic biomarker. This study also aims to evaluate the quality of the studies, data reliability and confidence in cumulative evidence. Materials & Methods A protocol of this study is registered at the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) with the following registration number: CRD42019132156. PRISMA was used as a guideline to conduct this review. A comprehensive electronic search was performed from inception to June 2019 in Pubmed, Cochrane Library, ProQuest, EBSCO and ScienceDirect. Studies were screened and included studies were identified based on the criteria made. Finally, data synthesis and quality assessment were conducted. Results There is a significant relationship between PRDM2 downregulation with solid tumor (RR 4.29, 95% CI [2.58–7.13], P < 0.00001). The overall sensitivity and specificity of PRDM2 downregulation in solid tumors is 84% (95% CI [39–98%]) and 86% (95% CI [71–94%]), respectively. There is a low risk of bias for the studies used. TSA results suggested the presence of marked imprecision. The overall quality of evidence for this study is very low. Discussion We present the first meta-analysis that investigated the potential of PRDM2 downregulation as a diagnostic biomarker in solid tumor. In line with previous studies, our results demonstrated that PRDM2 downregulation occurs in solid tumor. A major source of limitation in this study is the small number of studies. Conclusions Our review suggested that PRDM2 is downregulated in solid tumor. The relationship between PRDM2 downregulation and clinicopathological data is still inconclusive. Although the sensitivity and specificity of PRDM2 downregulation are imprecise, its high values, in addition to the evidence that suggested PRDM2 downregulation in solid tumor, hinted that it might still have a potential to be used as a diagnostic biomarker. In order to further strengthen these findings, more research regarding PRDM2 in solid tumors are encouraged.

Abstract
The PR/SET domain family (PRDM) comprise a family of genes whose protein products share a conserved N-terminal PR [PRDI-BF1 (positive regulatory domain I-binding factor 1) and RIZ1 (retinoblastoma protein-interacting zinc finger gene 1)] homologous domain structurally and functionally similar to the catalytic SET [Su(var)3-9, enhancer-of-zeste and trithorax] domain of histone methyltransferases (HMTs). These genes are involved in epigenetic regulation of gene expression through their intrinsic HMTase activity or via interactions with other chromatin modifying enzymes. In this way they control a broad spectrum of biological processes, including proliferation and differentiation control, cell cycle progression, and maintenance of immune cell homeostasis. In cancer, tumor-specific dysfunctions of PRDM genes alter their expression by genetic and/or epigenetic modifications. A common characteristic of most PRDM genes is to encode for two main molecular variants with or without the PR domain. They are generated by either alternative splicing or alternative use of different promoters and play opposite roles, particularly in cancer where their imbalance can be often observed. In this scenario, PRDM proteins are involved in cancer onset, invasion, and metastasis and their altered expression is related to poor prognosis and clinical outcome. These functions strongly suggest their potential use in cancer management as diagnostic or prognostic tools and as new targets of therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
Background: Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) is a pregnancy-associated disease manifested by decreased growth rate of fetus than the normal genetic growth potential. It is associated with increased susceptibility to metabolic diseases later in life. Although the mechanisms underlying the origin of metabolic diseases are poorly understood, DNA methylation is a crucial investigation for the identification of epigenetic changes.Objectives: To assess the degree of change of DNA methylation in IUGR neonates and compare with that of appropriate for gestational age (AGA) neonates and to explore the differentially methylated candidate genes and their biological significance.Methods: This cohort study was conducted in the Neonatology Department of JIPMER during the period of November 2017 to December 2018. Forty each of IUGR and gestation matched AGA neonates were recruited. Umbilical cord blood samples were collected at birth. DNA was separated from the blood samples; and, using 5-mC DNA ELISA method, the percentage of genomic DNA methylated in these neonates was established. Data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation. Methylation EPIC array was performed to identify the differentially methylated candidate genes. David analysis was used to find out the functional annotation chart by KEGG pathway.Results: Genomic DNA methylation varied significantly between IUGR and AGA neonates (IUGR: 3.12 ± 1.24; AGA: 4.40 ± 2.03; p value: <.01). A global shift toward hypomethylation was seen in IUGR compared with AGA, targeted to regulatory regions of the genome, and specifically promoters. Pathway analysis identified deregulation of pathways involved in metabolic diseases. Altered methylation of PTPRN2 & HLADQB1 genes leads to dysregulation of T-cells and reactive oxygen species (ROS). These changes may lead to complications later among these neonates subjected to IUGR.Conclusion: Our findings show significant changes in the methylation pattern of genes among IUGR and AGA babies. Steps for correcting the changes may help in reducing later complications among IUGR babies.

DNA Methylation Changes are Associated with the Programming of White Adipose Tissue Browning Features by Resveratrol and Nicotinamide Riboside Neonatal Supplementations in Mice. Nutrients 2020; 12:nu12020461. [PMID: 32059412 PMCID: PMC7071331 DOI: 10.3390/nu12020461] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2020] [Revised: 02/06/2020] [Accepted: 02/08/2020] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Neonatal supplementation with resveratrol (RSV) or nicotinamide riboside (NR) programs in male mice brown adipocyte-like features in white adipose tissue (WAT browning) together with improved metabolism in adulthood. We tested the involvement in this programming of long-term epigenetic changes in two browning-related genes that are overexpressed in WAT of supplemented mice, Slc27a1 and Prdm16. Suckling mice received orally the vehicle, RSV or NR from postnatal days 2-to-20. After weaning (d21) onto a chow diet, male mice were habituated to a normal-fat diet (NFD) starting d75, and split on d90 into continuation on the NFD or switching to a high-fat diet (HFD) until euthanization on d164. CpG methylation by bisulfite-sequencing was analyzed on inguinal WAT. Both treatments modified methylation marks in Slc27a1 and Prdm16 and the HFD-dependent dynamics of these marks in the adult WAT, with distinct and common effects. The treatments also affected gene expression of de novo DNA methylases in WAT of young animals (euthanized at d35 in independent experiments). Studies in 3T3-L1 adipocytes indicated the direct effects of RSV and NR on the DNA methylation machinery and favoring browning features. The results support epigenetic effects being involved in WAT programming by neonatal RSV or NR supplementation in male mice.

Exp Ther Med 2019; 18:2219-2230. [PMID: 31452712 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2019.7808] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2019] [Accepted: 06/27/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Accumulating evidence suggests that the epigenetic alterations caused by histone modifications have important roles in the genesis of gastric cancer (GC), particularly the well-studied acetylation and methylation modifications. In the present study, a Bioinformatics analysis of the expression of histone modification-associated genes in GC and normal tissues was performed by using datasets from Oncomine, the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). The clinical data of GC patients were downloaded from TCGA to determine the association between histone modification-associated gene expression and clinicopathological parameters or survival of GC. Finally, lysine acetyltransferase 2A (KAT2A), nuclear receptor coactivator 1 (NCOA1), SMYD family member 5 (SMYD5), protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) and PRDF1-RIZ (PR)/Su(var)3-9, enhancer-of-zeste and trithorax (SET) domain 16 (PRDM16) were screened; KAT2A, SMYD5 and PRMT1 were upregulated, while PRDM16 expression was downregulated in GC. Analysis of the GEO and Oncomine datasets revealed that NCOA1 was upregulated, which was contrary to the result obtained with the TCGA stomach adenocarcinoma dataset. Aberrant expression of KAT2A, NCOA1, SMYD5 and PRMT1 was more obvious in gastric intestinal-type adenocarcinoma; low NCOA1 expression was associated with better overall survival of GC patients [hazard ratio (HR)=0.690, 95% CI=0.570-0.840, P<0.001] and was an independent predictor for patients diagnosed with GC (HR=0.639, 95% CI=0.437-0.933, P=0.020). Correlation analysis and protein-protein interaction network analysis indicated a close association between ATAD2 and estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1), PRMT1, NCOA1 and KAT2A. In conclusion, differential expression of KAT2A, NCOA1, SMYD5, PRMT1 and PRDM16 was identified in GC vs. normal tissues, low NCOA1 expression was associated with poor survival of GC and ATAD2 may interact with ESR1 to regulate NCOA1 and PRMT1 in GC.
