Un-methylation of NUDT21 represses docosahexaenoic acid biosynthesis contributing to enzalutamide resistance in prostate cancer
Aims
The recent approval of enzalutamide for metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer underscores its growing clinical significance, raising concerns about emerging resistance and limited treatment options. While the reactivation of the androgen receptor (AR) and other genes plays a role in enzalutamide resistance, identifications of novel underlying mechanism with therapeutic potential in enzalutamide-resistant (EnzaR) cells remain largely elusive.
Methods
Drug-resistant prostate cancer cell lines, animal models, and organoids were utilized to examine NUDT21 function by transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses through loss-of-function and gain-of-function assays. Notably, a mono-methylation monoclonal antibody and conditional-knockin transgenic mouse model of NUDT21 were generated for evaluating its function.
Results
NUDT21 overexpression acts as a crucial alternative polyadenylation (APA) mediator, supported by its oncogenic role in prostate cancer. PRMT7-mediated mono-methylation of NUDT21 induces a shift in 3’UTR usage, reducing oncogenicity. In contrast, its un-methylation promotes cancer growth and cuproptosis insensitivity in EnzaR cells by exporting toxic copper and suppressing docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) biosynthesis. Crucially, NUDT21 inhibition or DHA supplementation with copper ionophore holds therapeutic promise for EnzaR cells.
Conclusions
The un-methylation of NUDT21-mediated 3’UTR shortening unveils a novel mechanism for enzalutamide resistance, and our findings offer innovative strategies for advancing the treatment of prostate cancer patients experiencing enzalutamide resistance.
