We have reported that hepatitis B X-interacting protein (HBXIP, also termed LAMTOR5) can act as an oncogenic transcriptional co-activator to modulate gene expression, promoting breast cancer development. Pyruvate kinase muscle isozyme M2 (PKM2), encoded by PKM gene, has emerged as a key oncoprotein in breast cancer. Yet, the regulatory mechanism of PKM2 is still unexplored. Here, we report that HBXIP can upregulate PKM2 to accelerate proliferation of estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer. Immunohistochemistry analysis using breast cancer tissue microarray uncovered a positive association between the expression of HBXIP and PKM2. We also discovered that PKM2 expression was positively related with HBXIP expression in clinical breast cancer patients by real-time PCR assay. Interestingly, in ER+ breast cancer cells, HBXIP was capable of upregulating PKM2 expression at mRNA and protein levels in a dose-dependent manner, as well as increasing the activity of PKM promoter. Mechanistically, HBXIP could stimulate PKM promoter through binding to the -779/-579 promoter region involving co-activation of E2F transcription factor 1 (E2F1). In function, cell viability, EdU, colony formation, and xenograft tumor growth assays showed that HBXIP contributed to accelerating cell proliferation through PKM2 in ER+ breast cancer. Collectively, we conclude that HBXIP induces PKM2 through transcription factor E2F1 to facilitate ER+ breast cancer cell proliferation. We provide new evidence for the mechanism of transcription regulation of PKM2 in promotion of breast cancer progression.

癌蛋白 HBXIP 通过转录因子 E2F1 诱导 PKM2,促进 ER 阳性乳腺癌细胞增殖。



我们报道了乙型肝炎 X 相互作用蛋白(HBXIP,也称为 LAMTOR5)可以作为致癌转录共激活因子来调节基因表达,促进乳腺癌的发展。由 PKM 基因编码的丙酮酸激酶肌肉同工酶 M2 (PKM2) 已成为乳腺癌中的关键癌蛋白。然而,PKM2的调控机制仍未被探索。在此,我们报告 HBXIP 可以上调 PKM2,加速雌激素受体阳性 (ER+) 乳腺癌的增殖。使用乳腺癌组织微阵列进行的免疫组织化学分析发现 HBXIP 和 PKM2 的表达之间呈正相关。我们还通过实时PCR检测发现临床乳腺癌患者中PKM2的表达与HBXIP的表达呈正相关。有趣的是,在 ER+ 乳腺癌细胞中,HBXIP 能够以剂量依赖的方式上调 PKM2 mRNA 和蛋白质水平的表达,并增加 PKM 启动子的活性。从机制上讲,HBXIP 可以通过与 -779/-579 启动子区域结合来刺激 PKM 启动子,从而共同激活 E2F 转录因子 1 (E2F1)。在功能、细胞活力、EdU、集落形成和异种移植肿瘤生长测定中,HBXIP 有助于通过 PKM2 加速 ER+ 乳腺癌中的细胞增殖。总的来说,我们得出结论,HBXIP 通过转录因子 E2F1 诱导 PKM2 促进 ER+ 乳腺癌细胞增殖。我们为 PKM2 转录调控促进乳腺癌进展的机制提供了新的证据。
