Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly malignant tumor with a poor prognosis. As a tumor inhibitor, the specific tumor suppressor mechanism of Sirtuin4(SIRT4) in PDAC remains elusive. In this study, SIRT4 was found to inhibit PDAC by impacting mitochondrial homeostasis. SIRT4 deacetylated lysine 547 of SEL1L and increased the protein level of an E3 ubiquitin ligase HRD1. As a central member of ER-associated protein degradation (ERAD), HRD1-SEL1L complex is recently reported to regulate the mitochondria, though the mechanism is not fully delineated. Here, we found the increase in SEL1L-HRD1 complex decreased the stability of a mitochondrial protein, ALKBH1. Downregulation of ALKBH1 subsequently blocked the transcription of mitochondrial DNA-coded genes, and resulted in mitochondrial damage. Lastly, a putative SIRT4 stimulator, Entinostat, was identified, which upregulated the expression of SIRT4 and effectively inhibited pancreatic cancer in vivo and in vitro.
期刊介绍:
BBA Gene Regulatory Mechanisms includes reports that describe novel insights into mechanisms of transcriptional, post-transcriptional and translational gene regulation. Special emphasis is placed on papers that identify epigenetic mechanisms of gene regulation, including chromatin, modification, and remodeling. This section also encompasses mechanistic studies of regulatory proteins and protein complexes; regulatory or mechanistic aspects of RNA processing; regulation of expression by small RNAs; genomic analysis of gene expression patterns; and modeling of gene regulatory pathways. Papers describing gene promoters, enhancers, silencers or other regulatory DNA regions must incorporate significant functions studies.
