ABSTRACT
TGF-ß-SMAD signaling pathway plays an important role in the progression of various cancers. However, posttranscriptional regulation such as N6-methyladenosine (m6A) of TGF-ß-SMAD signaling axis remains incompletely understood. Here, we reveal that insulin like growth factor 2 mRNA binding protein 2 (IGF2BP2) is low expression as well as associated with poor prognosis in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) patients and inhibits proliferation as well as promotes metastasis of ccRCC cells. Mechanistically, IGF2BP2 systematically regulates TGF-ß-SMAD signaling family, including TGF-ß1/2, TGF-ßR1/2 and SMAD2/3/4, through mediating their mRNA stability in an m6A-dependent manner. Furthermore, the functional effects of IGF2BP2 on ccRCC cells is mediated by TGF-ß-SMAD signaling downstream effector SMAD4, which is identified three m6A sites in 5'UTR and CDS. Our study establishes IGF2BP2-TGF-ß-SMAD axis as a new regulatory effector in ccRCC, providing new insights for developing novel therapeutic strategies.
