Transcription factor NFYA inhibits ferroptosis in lung adenocarcinoma cells by regulating PEBP1
Background
Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent programmed cell death mediated by lipid peroxidation. The purpose was to explore the molecular mechanism by which phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein 1 (PEBP1) regulates ferroptosis in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), hoping to identify novel therapeutic targets for LUAD.
Methods
The expression, enrichment pathways and upstream transcription factors of PEBP1 were analyzed using bioinformatics tools. Dual-luciferase reporter assay and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) experiments were conducted to validate the interaction and binding relationship between PEBP1 and the upstream transcription factor nuclear transcription factor Y subunit α (NFYA). Quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) was conducted to measure the expression levels of PEBP1 and NFYA mRNA in LUAD cells. Cell viability was detected by cell counting kit-8 assay. In addition, levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), Fe2+, and lipid reactive oxygen species (ROS) were assessed to evaluate ferroptosis levels in LUAD cells.
Results
PEBP1 was downregulated and significantly enriched in the ferroptosis signaling pathway in LUAD. Overexpression of PEBP1 suppressed cell viability remarkably, while levels of MDA, Fe2+, and lipid ROS were increased. Conversely, knockdown of PEBP1 produced the opposite effects. The upstream transcription factor NFYA, predicted to be involved in the regulation of PEBP1, was also upregulated in LUAD. Dual-luciferase reporter assay, ChIP, and molecular experiments revealed that NFYA transcriptionally suppressed the expression of PEBP1, and overexpression of NFYA could reverse the effects caused by PEBP1 overexpression.
Conclusion
PEBP1 regulated ferroptosis in LUAD, and the transcription factor NFYA inhibited ferroptosis in LUAD cells by transcriptionally downregulating PEBP1 expression.
期刊介绍:
Mutation Research (MR) provides a platform for publishing all aspects of DNA mutations and epimutations, from basic evolutionary aspects to translational applications in genetic and epigenetic diagnostics and therapy. Mutations are defined as all possible alterations in DNA sequence and sequence organization, from point mutations to genome structural variation, chromosomal aberrations and aneuploidy. Epimutations are defined as alterations in the epigenome, i.e., changes in DNA methylation, histone modification and small regulatory RNAs.
MR publishes articles in the following areas:
Of special interest are basic mechanisms through which DNA damage and mutations impact development and differentiation, stem cell biology and cell fate in general, including various forms of cell death and cellular senescence.
The study of genome instability in human molecular epidemiology and in relation to complex phenotypes, such as human disease, is considered a growing area of importance.
Mechanisms of (epi)mutation induction, for example, during DNA repair, replication or recombination; novel methods of (epi)mutation detection, with a focus on ultra-high-throughput sequencing.
Landscape of somatic mutations and epimutations in cancer and aging.
Role of de novo mutations in human disease and aging; mutations in population genomics.
Interactions between mutations and epimutations.
The role of epimutations in chromatin structure and function.
Mitochondrial DNA mutations and their consequences in terms of human disease and aging.
Novel ways to generate mutations and epimutations in cell lines and animal models.
