RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Pseudouridine is a prevalent RNA modification and is highly present in the serum and urine of patients with HCC. However, the role of pseudouridylation and its modifiers in HCC remains unknown. We investigated the function and underlying mechanism of pseudouridine synthase 1 (PUS1) in HCC. APPROACH AND RESULTS: By analyzing the TCGA data set, PUS1 was found to be significantly upregulated in human HCC specimens and positively correlated with tumor grade and poor prognosis of HCC. Knockdown of PUS1 inhibited cell proliferation and the growth of tumors in a subcutaneous xenograft mouse model. Accordingly, increased cell proliferation and tumor growth were observed in PUS1-overexpressing cells. Furthermore, overexpression of PUS1 significantly accelerates tumor formation in a mouse HCC model established by hydrodynamic tail vein injection, while knockout of PUS1 decreases it. Additionally, PUS1 catalytic activity is required for HCC tumorigenesis. Mechanistically, we profiled the mRNA targets of PUS1 by utilizing surveying targets by apolipoprotein B mRNA-editing enzyme 1 (APOBEC1)-mediated profiling and found that PUS1 incorporated pseudouridine into mRNAs of a set of oncogenes, thereby endowing them with greater translation capacity. CONCLUSIONS: Our study highlights the critical role of PUS1 and pseudouridylation in HCC development, and provides new insight that PUS1 enhances the protein levels of a set of oncogenes, including insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1) and c-MYC, by means of pseudouridylation-mediated mRNA translation.

RESUMO

Although increasing evidence links the gut microbiota with the development of colorectal cancer, the molecular mechanisms for microbiota regulation of tumorigenesis are not fully understood. Here, we found that a member of the TNFα-induced protein 8 (TNFAIP8) family called TIPE2 (TNFAIP8-like 2) was significantly upregulated in murine intestinal tumors and in human colorectal cancer, and colorectal cancer with high expression of Tipe2 mRNA associated with reduced survival time of patients. Consistent with these findings, TIPE2 deficiency significantly inhibited the development of colorectal cancer in mice treated with azoxymethane/dextran sodium sulfate and in Apcmin/+ mice. TIPE2 deficiency attenuated the severity of colitis by successfully resolving and restricting colonic inflammation and protected colonic myeloid cells from death during colitis. Transplantation of TIPE2-deficient bone marrow into wild-type mice successfully dampened the latter's tumorigenic phenotype, indicating a hematopoietic-specific role for TIPE2. Mechanistically, restricting the expansion of Enterobacteriaceae/Escherichia coli (E. coli) decreased intestinal inflammation and reduced the incidence of colonic tumors. Collectively, these data suggest that hematopoietic TIPE2 regulates intestinal antitumor immunity by regulation of gut microbiota. TIPE2 may represent a new therapeutic target for treating colorectal cancer.
