Tristetraprolin (TTP) and let-7 microRNA exhibit suppressive effects on cell growth through down-regulation of oncogenes. Both TTP and let-7 are often repressed in human cancers, thereby promoting oncogenesis by derepressing their target genes. However, the precise mechanism of this repression is unknown. We here demonstrate that p53 stimulated by the DNA-damaging agent doxorubicin (DOX) induced the expression of TTP in cancer cells. TTP in turn increased let-7 levels through down-regulation of Lin28a. Correspondingly, cancer cells with mutations or inhibition of p53 failed to induce the expression of both TTP and let-7 on treatment with DOX. Down-regulation of TTP by small interfering RNAs attenuated the inhibitory effect of DOX on let-7 expression and cell growth. Therefore, TTP provides an important link between p53 activation induced by DNA damage and let-7 biogenesis. These novel findings provide a mechanism for the widespread decrease in TTP and let-7 and chemoresistance observed in human cancers. 相似文献

Interleukin 23 (IL-23) is an inflammatory cytokine that plays an important role in tumor promotion. Expression of IL-23 is increased in cancer cells and correlates with tumor progression. However, the mechanisms regulating IL-23 expression in cancer cells are still unclear. Here we report that tristetraprolin (TTP), an AU-rich element (ARE)-binding protein, inhibits IL-23 production in CT26 mouse colon cancer cells. Overexpression of TTP decreased the stability of IL-23 mRNA and the expression level of IL-23 in CT26 cells. Conversely, inhibition of TTP by siRNA increased IL-23 production. TTP destabilized a luciferase mRNA reporter containing the IL-23 mRNA 3’UTR, which contains five AREs. Analyses of deletion and point mutants of the IL-23 mRNA 3’UTR demonstrated that the ARE cluster between the third and fifth AREs was responsible for TTP-mediated destabilization of IL-23 mRNA. A RNA electrophoretic mobility shift assay confirmed that TTP binds to this ARE cluster. Taken together, these results demonstrate that TTP acts as a negative regulator of IL-23 gene expression in mouse colon cancer cells and suggest its potential application as a novel therapeutic target to control IL-23-mediated tumor promotion. 相似文献

We purified the KH-type splicing regulatory protein (KSRP) as a protein interacting with the 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of the human inducible nitric oxide (iNOS) mRNA. Immunodepletion of KSRP enhanced iNOS 3'-UTR RNA stability in in vitro-degradation assays. In DLD-1 cells overexpressing KSRP cytokine-induced iNOS expression was markedly reduced. In accordance, downregulation of KSRP expression increases iNOS expression by stabilizing iNOS mRNA. Co-immunoprecipitations showed interaction of KSRP with the exosome and tristetraprolin (TTP). To analyze the role of KSRP binding to the 3'-UTR we studied iNOS expression in DLD-1 cells overexpressing a non-binding mutant of KSRP. In these cells, iNOS expression was increased. Mapping of the binding site revealed KSRP interacting with the most 3'-located AU-rich element (ARE) of the human iNOS mRNA. This sequence is also the target for HuR, an iNOS mRNA stabilizing protein. We were able to demonstrate that KSRP and HuR compete for this binding site, and that intracellular binding to the iNOS mRNA was reduced for KSRP and enhanced for HuR after cytokine treatment. Finally, a complex interplay of KSRP with TTP and HuR seems to be essential for iNOS mRNA stabilization after cytokine stimulation. 相似文献

Lin28 plays important roles in development, stem cell maintenance, oncogenesis and metabolism. As an RNA-binding protein, it blocks the biogenesis primarily of let-7 family miRNAs and also promotes translation of a cohort of mRNAs involved in cell growth, metabolism and pluripotency, likely through recognition of distinct sequence and structural motifs within mRNAs. Here, we show that one such motif, shared by multiple Lin28-responsive elements (LREs) present in Lin28 mRNA targets also participates in a Drosha-dependent regulation and may contribute to destabilization of its cognate mRNAs. We further show that the same mutations in the LREs known to abolish Lin28 binding and stimulation of translation also abrogate Drosha-dependent mRNA destabilization, and that this effect is independent of miRNAs, uncovering a previously unsuspected coupling between Drosha-dependent destabilization and Lin28-mediated regulation. Thus, Lin28-dependent stimulation of translation of target mRNAs may, in part, serve to compensate for their intrinsic instability, thereby ensuring optimal levels of expression of genes critical for cell viability, metabolism and pluripotency. 相似文献

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) originate from stem-loop-containing precursors (pre-miRNAs, pri-miRNAs) and mature by means of the Drosha and Dicer endonucleases and their associated factors. The let-7 miRNAs have prominent roles in developmental differentiation and in regulating cell proliferation. In cancer, the tumor suppressor function of let-7 is abrogated by overexpression of Lin28, one of several RNA-binding proteins that regulate let-7 biogenesis by interacting with conserved motifs in let-7 precursors close to the Dicer cleavage site. Using in vitro assays, we have identified a binding site for short modified oligoribonucleotides (‘looptomirs’) overlapping that of Lin28 in pre-let-7a-2. These looptomirs selectively antagonize the docking of Lin28, but still permit processing of pre-let-7a-2 by Dicer. Looptomirs restored synthesis of mature let-7 and inhibited growth and clonogenic potential in Lin28 overexpressing hepatocarcinoma cells, thereby demonstrating a promising new means to rescue defective miRNA biogenesis in Lin28-dependent cancers. 相似文献

Tristetraprolin (TTP) regulates the expression of AU-rich element-containing mRNAs through promoting the degradation and repressing the translation of target mRNA. While the mechanism for promoting target mRNA degradation has been extensively studied, the mechanism underlying translational repression is not well established. Here, we show that TTP recruits eukaryotic initiation factor 4E2 (eIF4E2) to repress target mRNA translation. TTP interacted with eIF4E2 but not with eIF4E. Overexpression of eIF4E2 enhanced TTP-mediated translational repression, and downregulation of endogenous eIF4E2 or overexpression of a truncation mutant of eIF4E2 impaired TTP-mediated translational repression. Overexpression of an eIF4E2 mutant that lost the cap-binding activity also impaired TTP''s activity, suggesting that the cap-binding activity of eIF4E2 is important in TTP-mediated translational repression. We further show that TTP promoted eIF4E2 binding to target mRNA. These results imply that TTP recruits eIF4E2 to compete with eIF4E to repress the translation of target mRNA. This notion is supported by the finding that downregulation of endogenous eIF4E2 increased the production of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) protein without affecting the mRNA levels in THP-1 cells. Collectively, these results uncover a novel mechanism by which TTP represses target mRNA translation. 相似文献

The pluripotency factor Lin28 recruits a 3' terminal uridylyl transferase (TUTase) to selectively block let-7 microRNA biogenesis in undifferentiated cells. Zcchc11 (TUTase4/TUT4) was previously identified as an enzyme responsible for Lin28-mediated pre-let-7 uridylation and control of let-7 expression. Here we investigate the protein and RNA determinants for this interaction. Biochemical dissection and reconstitution assays reveal the TUTase domains necessary and sufficient for Lin28-enhanced pre-let-7 uridylation. A single C2H2-type zinc finger domain of Zcchc11 was found to be responsible for the functional interaction with Lin28. We identify Zcchc6 (TUTase7) as an alternative TUTase that functions with Lin28 in vitro, and accordingly, we find Zcchc11 and Zcchc6 redundantly control let-7 biogenesis in embryonic stem cells. Our study indicates that Lin28 uses two different TUTases to control let-7 expression and has important implications for stem cell biology as well as cancer. 相似文献

研究在HeLaS3细胞中过表达Lin28a/Lin28b对let-7家族miRNA表达水平和活性的影响。首先,构建Lin28a和Lin28b的表达载体pAAV2neo-Lin28a和pAAV2neo-Lin28b,分别转染HeLaS3细胞并筛选获得Lin28a和Lin28b的稳定表达细胞株HeLaS3/pAAV2neo-Lin28a和HeLaS3/pAAV2neo-Lin28b。然后,以pAAV2neo-Gluc-(Fluc)为基本骨架,构建并获得检测let-7家族miRNA活性的8种质粒型载体,并包装为相应的重组腺相关病毒(Recombinant adeno-associated virus,rAAV),作为检测miRNA靶序列介导的转录后抑制活性的传感器,命名为Asensor。在此基础上,以HeLaS3细胞为对照,用Western blot检测HeLaS3/pAAV2neo-Lin28a和HeLaS3/pAAV2neo-Lin28b细胞中Lin28a和Lin28b表达水平,用QRT-PCR测定let-7家族各成员表达水平,用Asensor检测let-7家族各成员活性。Western blot结果显示,HeLaS3/pAAV2neo-Lin28a和HeLaS3/pAAV2neo-Lin28b均能有效地表达Lin28a和Lin28b蛋白;QRT-PCR检测结果显示,相比于HeLaS3细胞,HeLaS3/pAAV2neo-Lin28a细胞中let-7家族各成员表达水平都下降(除let-7e外),但不同成员下降幅度存在差异;Asensor检测结果显示,let-7家族所有成员活性水平都下降,但不同成员下降幅度也存在差异,且同一成员活性水平与表达水平及其下降趋势也不一致。相比于HeLaS3细胞,HeLaS3/pAAV2neo-Lin28b细胞中let-7家族成员的表达和活性水平均明显下降,但表达水平的下降幅度比HeLaS3/pAAV2neo-Lin28a细胞大,而活性的下降幅度却与之相近。本研究建立了一种检测和比较miRNA靶序列介导的转录后抑制活性的方法,首次研究了过表达Lin28a和Lin28b对细胞中的let-7家族miRNA活性影响,并发现Lin28a和Lin28b对let-7家族miRNA表达水平的影响和对其相应活性的影响不一致性,说明在检测miRNA表达水平的同时检测miRNA活性能更全面揭示miRNA的调节功能,为进一步研究let-7家族的调控机制奠定了基础。 相似文献
