Mol Cancer 2024; 23:148. [PMID: 39048965 PMCID: PMC11270804 DOI: 10.1186/s12943-024-02046-3] [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: 04/17/2024] [Accepted: 06/15/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Ubiquitination, a pivotal posttranslational modification of proteins, plays a fundamental role in regulating protein stability. The dysregulation of ubiquitinating and deubiquitinating enzymes is a common feature in various cancers, underscoring the imperative to investigate ubiquitin ligases and deubiquitinases (DUBs) for insights into oncogenic processes and the development of therapeutic interventions. In this review, we discuss the contributions of the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) in all hallmarks of cancer and progress in drug discovery. We delve into the multiple functions of the UPS in oncology, including its regulation of multiple cancer-associated pathways, its role in metabolic reprogramming, its engagement with tumor immune responses, its function in phenotypic plasticity and polymorphic microbiomes, and other essential cellular functions. Furthermore, we provide a comprehensive overview of novel anticancer strategies that leverage the UPS, including the development and application of proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs) and molecular glues.

[PMID: 39004158 DOI: 10.1016/j.autrev.2024.103579] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2024] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 07/09/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
The surrounding non-cancer cells and tumor cells that make up the tumor microenvironment (TME) have various metabolic rhythms. TME metabolic heterogeneity is influenced by the intricate network of metabolic control within and between cells. DNA, protein, transport, and microbial levels are important regulators of TME metabolic homeostasis. The effectiveness of immunotherapy is also closely correlated with alterations in TME metabolism. The response of a tumor patient to immunotherapy is influenced by a variety of variables, including intracellular metabolic reprogramming, metabolic interaction between cells, ecological changes within and between tumors, and general dietary preferences. Although immunotherapy and targeted therapy have made great strides, their use in the accurate identification and treatment of tumors still has several limitations. The function of TME metabolic heterogeneity in tumor immunotherapy is summarized in this article. It focuses on how metabolic heterogeneity develops and is regulated as a tumor progresses, the precise molecular mechanisms and potential clinical significance of imbalances in intracellular metabolic homeostasis and intercellular metabolic coupling and interaction, as well as the benefits and drawbacks of targeted metabolism used in conjunction with immunotherapy. This offers insightful knowledge and important implications for individualized tumor patient diagnosis and treatment plans in the future.

Abstract
Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related death, and the most common type of lung cancer is non-small cell lung cancer, which accounts for approximately 85 % of lung cancer diagnoses. Recent studies have revealed that ubiquitination acts as a crucial part of the development and progression of lung cancer. The E1-E2-E3 three-enzyme cascade has a core function in ubiquitination, so targeted adjustments of E3 ligases could be used in lung cancer treatment. Hence, we elucidate research advances in lung cancer-related E3 ligases by briefly describing the structure and categorization of E3 ligases. Here, we provide a detailed review of the mechanisms by which lung cancer-related E3 ligases modify substrate proteins and regulate signaling pathways to facilitate or suppress cancer progression. We hope to show a new perspective on targeted precision therapy for lung cancer.

Abstract
Metastatic cancer is a major cause of cancer-related mortality; however, the complex regulation process remains to be further elucidated. A large amount of preliminary investigations focus on the role of epigenetic mechanisms in cancer metastasis. Notably, the posttranslational modifications were found to be critically involved in malignancy, thus attracting considerable attention. Beyond acetylation, novel forms of acylation have been recently identified following advances in mass spectrometry, proteomics technologies, and bioinformatics, such as propionylation, butyrylation, malonylation, succinylation, crotonylation, 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation, lactylation, among others. These novel acylations play pivotal roles in regulating different aspects of energy mechanism and mediating signal transduction by covalently modifying histone or nonhistone proteins. Furthermore, these acylations and their modifying enzymes show promise regarding the diagnosis and treatment of tumors, especially tumor metastasis. Here, we comprehensively review the identification and characterization of 11 novel acylations, and the corresponding modifying enzymes, highlighting their significance for tumor metastasis. We also focus on their potential application as clinical therapeutic targets and diagnostic predictors, discussing the current obstacles and future research prospects.

Abstract
Protein acetylation modifications play a central and pivotal role in a myriad of biological processes, spanning cellular metabolism, proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, and beyond, by effectively reshaping protein structure and function. The metabolic state of cells is intricately connected to epigenetic modifications, which in turn influence chromatin status and gene expression patterns. Notably, pathological alterations in protein acetylation modifications are frequently observed in diseases such as metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disorders, and cancer. Such abnormalities can result in altered protein properties and loss of function, which are closely associated with developing and progressing related diseases. In recent years, the advancement of precision medicine has highlighted the potential value of protein acetylation in disease diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. This review includes provocative and thought-provoking papers outlining recent breakthroughs in acetylation modifications as they relate to cardiovascular disease, mitochondrial metabolic regulation, liver health, neurological health, obesity, diabetes, and cancer. Additionally, it covers the molecular mechanisms and research challenges in understanding the role of acetylation in disease regulation. By summarizing novel targets and prognostic markers for the treatment of related diseases, we aim to contribute to the field. Furthermore, we discuss current hot topics in acetylation research related to health regulation, including N4-acetylcytidine and liquid-liquid phase separation. The primary objective of this review is to provide insights into the functional diversity and underlying mechanisms by which acetylation regulates proteins in disease contexts.

Abstract
Studies have shown that acetylation modification plays an important role in tumor proliferation and metastasis. Phospholysine phosphohistidine inorganic pyrophosphate phosphatase (LHPP) is downregulated in certain tumors, as a tumor suppressor role. However, the regulation of LHPP expression and its function in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) remain unclear. In the present study, we found that LHPP was downregulated in NPC, and overexpression of LHPP inhibited the proliferation and invasion of NPC cells. Mechanistically, HDAC4 deacetylated LHPP at K6 and promoted the degradation of LHPP through TRIM21 mediated K48-linked ubiquitination. HDAC4, was confirmed to be highly expressed in NPC cells and promoted the proliferation and invasion of NPC cells through LHPP. Further research found that LHPP could inhibit the phosphorylation of tyrosine kinase TYK2, thereby inhibiting the activity of STAT1. In vivo, knockdown of HDAC4 or treatment with small molecule inhibitor Tasquinimod targeting HDAC4 could significantly inhibit the proliferation and metastasis of NPC by upregulating LHPP. In conclusion, our finding demonstrated that HDAC4/LHPP signal axis promotes the proliferation and metastasis of NPC through upregulating TYK2-STAT1 phosphorylation activation. This research will provide novel evidence and intervention targets for NPC metastasis.

Abstract
Regulated cell death (RCD) contributes to reshaping the tumor immune microenvironment and participating in the progression of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC); however, related mechanisms have not been fully disclosed. Here, we identified 5 subclusters of NSCLC based on consensus clustering of 3429 RCD-associated genes in the TCGA database and depicted the genomic features and immune landscape of these clusters. Importantly, the clusters provided insights into recognizing tumor microenvironment (TME) and tumor responses to immunotherapy and chemotherapy. Further, we established and validated an RCD-Risk model based on RCD-associated genes, which strongly predicted the prognosis, TME, and immunotherapy outcomes in NSCLC patients. Notably, tissue microarray staining confirmed that the expression of LDLRAD3, a core gene in RCD-Risk model, correlated with poor survival. In conclusion, we developed a novel RCD classification system and RCD-Risk model of NSCLC, serving as a robust and promising predictor for prognosis and immunotherapy benefit of individual NSCLC patients.

Histone acetylation modification regulator-mediated tumor microenvironment infiltration characteristics and prognostic model of lung adenocarcinoma patients. J Thorac Dis 2022; 14:3886-3902. [PMID: 36389327 PMCID: PMC9641363 DOI: 10.21037/jtd-22-1000] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2022] [Accepted: 09/16/2022] [Indexed: 01/25/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence rate of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is rapidly increasing. Recent studies have reported that histone acetylation modification plays an important role in the occurrence and development of tumors. However, the potential role of modification of histone acetylation modification in the development of tumor immune microenvironment is still unclear. METHODS In this study, we comprehensively evaluated the acetylation modification patterns of LUAD samples obtained from various different databases based on 36 histone modification regulators, and constructed a prognostic model based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) LUAD cohort using the Cox regression method. The close relationship between histone acetylation and tumor immune characteristics was further studied, including immune infiltration, immune escape and immunotherapy. Finally, we combined three cohort (GSE30219, GSE72094 and GSE50081) from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to verify the above results. RESULTS We analyzed the expression, mutation and interaction of 36 histone acetylation regulated genes. After Univariate Cox regression analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression (LASSO), 5 genes (KAT2B, SIRT2, HDAC5, KAT8, HDAC2) were screened to establish the prognosis model and calculate the risk score. Then, patients in the TCGA cohort were divided into high- and low-risk groups based on the risk scores. Further analysis indicated that patients in the high-risk group exhibited significantly reduced overall survival (OS) compared with those in the low-risk group. The high- and low-risk groups exhibited significant differences in terms of tumor immune characteristics, such as immune infiltration, immune escape and immunotherapy. The high-risk group had lower immune score, less immune cell infiltration and higher clinical stage. Moreover, multivariate analysis revealed that this prognostic model might be a powerful prognostic predictor for LUAD. In addition, drugs sensitive for this classification were identified. Finally, the efficacy of the prognostic model was validated by cohort (GSE30219, GSE72094 and GSE50081) from GEO database. CONCLUSIONS Our study provided a robust signature for predicting changing prognosis of patients with LUAD. Thus, it appears to be a potentially useful prognostic tool. Moreover, the important relationship between histone acetylation and tumor immune microenvironment was revealed.

Abstract
Tripartite motif containing-21 (TRIM21), an E3 ubiquitin ligase, was initially found to be involved in antiviral responses and autoimmune diseases. Recently studies have reported that TRIM21 plays a dual role in cancer promoting and suppressing in the occurrence and development of various cancers. Despite the fact that TRIM21 has effects on multiple metabolic processes, inflammatory responses and the efficacy of tumor therapy, there has been no systematic review of these topics. Herein, we discuss the emerging role and function of TRIM21 in cancer metabolism, immunity, especially the immune response to inflammation associated with tumorigenesis, and also the cancer treatment, hoping to shine a light on the great potential of targeting TRIM21 as a therapeutic target.
