RESUMO

Nuclear Bcl-xL is found to promote cancer metastasis independently of its mitochondria-based anti-apoptotic activity. How Bcl-xL is translocated into the nucleus and how nuclear Bcl-xL regulates histone H3 trimethyl Lys4 (H3K4me3) modification have yet to be understood. Here, we report that C-terminal Binding Protein 2 (CtBP2) binds to Bcl-xL via its N-terminus and translocates Bcl-xL into the nucleus. Knockdown of CtBP2 by shRNA decreases the nuclear portion of Bcl-xL and reverses Bcl-xL-induced invasion and metastasis in mouse models. Furthermore, knockout of CtBP2 not only reduces the nuclear portion of Bcl-xL but also suppresses Bcl-xL transcription. The binding between Bcl-xL and CtBP2 is required for their interaction with MLL1, a histone H3K4 methyltransferase. Pharmacologic inhibition of the MLL1 enzymatic activity reverses Bcl-xL-induced H3K4me3 and TGFß mRNA upregulation, as well as invasion. Moreover, the cleavage under targets and release using nuclease (CUT&RUN) assay coupled with next-generation sequencing reveals that H3K4me3 modifications are particularly enriched in the promotor regions of genes encoding TGFß and its signaling pathway members in cancer cells overexpressing Bcl-xL. Altogether, the metastatic function of Bcl-xL is mediated by its interaction with CtBP2 and MLL1 and this study offers new therapeutic strategies to treat Bcl-xL-overexpressing cancer.

RESUMO

Besides its mitochondria-based anti-apoptotic role, Bcl-xL also travels to the nucleus to promote cancer metastasis by upregulating global histone H3 trimethyl Lys4 (H3K4me3) and TGFß transcription. How Bcl-xL is translocated into the nucleus and how nuclear Bcl-xL regulates H3K4me3 modification are not understood. Here, we report that C-terminal Binding Protein 2 (CtBP2) binds Bcl-xL via its N-terminus and translocates Bcl-xL into the nucleus. Knockdown of CtBP2 by shRNA decreases the nuclear portion of Bcl-xL and reverses Bcl-xL-induced cell migration and metastasis in mouse models. Furthermore, knockout of CtBP2 suppresses Bcl-xL transcription. The binding between Bcl-xL and CtBP2 is required for their interaction with MLL1, a histone H3K4 methyltransferase. Pharmacologic inhibition of MLL1 enzymatic activity reverses Bcl-xL-induced H3K4me3 and TGFß mRNA upregulation as well as cell invasion. Moreover, cleavage under targets and release using nuclease (CUT&RUN) coupled with next generation sequencing reveals that H3K4me3 modifications are particularly enriched in the promotor region of genes encoding TGFß and its signaling pathway in the cancer cells overexpressing Bcl-xL. Altogether, the metastatic function of Bcl-xL is mediated by its interaction with CtBP2 and MLL1.
