Summary |
The orphan nuclear receptor NR2E3 (Nuclear receptor subfamily 2 group E, Member 3) is an epigenetic player essential for p53 activation during liver injuries through its modulation of chromatin accessibility. Nonetheless, a precise tumor suppressive and epigenetic role of NR2E3 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear. HCC patients expressing low NR2E3 exhibit unfavorable clinical outcomes, aligning with heightened activation of the WNT/β-catenin signaling pathway. The murine HCC models utilizing NR2E3 knockout mice consistently exhibits accelerated liver tumor formation and progression accompanied by enhanced activation of WNT/β-catenin signaling pathway and inactivation of p53 signaling pathway. At cellular level, the loss of NR2E3 increases the acquisition of aggressive cancer cell phenotype and tumorigenicity and upregulates key genes in the WNT/β-catenin pathway with enhanced chromatin accessibility. This event is mediated through increased formation of active transcription complex involving Sp1, β-catenin, and p300, a histone acetyltransferase, on the promoters of target genes. These findings demonstrate that the loss of NR2E3 promotes WNT/β-catenin signaling activation at cellular, organismal, and clinical levels. In summary, NR2E3 is a novel tumor suppressor that maintains epigenetic homeostasis, thereby preventing activation of WNT/β-catenin signaling that promotes HCC formation and progression.
