Cis-Regulation of an m6A Eraser by an Insertion Variant Associated with Survival of Patients With Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma. (PubMed, Adv Sci (Weinh))
Finally, the ALKBH5-FBXL5 axis reduces intracellular reactive oxygen species levels, leading to PI3K/AKT and NF-kB pathway inhibition and consequently suppresses NSCLC proliferation and metastasis in vitro and in vivo. Triggered by an insertion variant, this remote cis-regulation of m6A eraser and the downstream molecular events modulate the survival of NSCLC patients.

Tangeretin inhibits airway inflammatory responses by reducing early growth response 1 (EGR1) expression in mice exposed to cigarette smoke and lipopolysaccharide. (PubMed, Heliyon)
Comprehensively, tangeretin inhibits the lung inflammatory response associated with COPD by reducing EGR1 expression in PMA-induced human epithelial cells and in a CS/LPS-stimulated mouse model. This study shows that tangeretin has anti-COPD properties and can be a promising alternative (or complementary) treatment for inflammatory lung disease.

PI3K/Akt inhibition promotes AR activity and prostate cancer cell proliferation through p35-CDK5 modulation. (PubMed, Biochim Biophys Acta Mol Basis Dis)
Inhibiting PI3K/Akt with LY294002, Capivasertib (AZD5363), or using an inactive Akt mutant significantly increased p35 expression and subsequently enhanced AR stability and activation in PCa cells. Importantly, CDK5 knockdown further reduced PI3K/Akt-inhibition-induced AR and cell viability maintenance, suggesting a compensatory role for CDK5-AR in maintaining cell viability under Akt inhibition. In conclusion, PI3K/Akt inhibition could trigger p35-CDK5-dependent AR activation and cell viability, highlighting p35-CDK5 as a critical link connecting PI3K/Akt inhibition to AR activation and pivotal in PCa cell resistance to PI3K/Akt blockade.

Furthermore, our quantitative analyses reveal a high spare signaling capacity in the ERK pathway, suggesting that eIF4F-dependent feedback keeps the majority of ERK molecules inactive under normal conditions. Overall, our findings highlight the crucial role of eIF4F in regulating ERK signaling flux and suggest that pharmacological eIF4F inhibitors can disrupt the negative feedback control of MAPK activity in melanomas with BRAF and NRAS activating mutations.

Early growth response 1 transcription factor and its context-dependent functions in glioblastoma. (PubMed, Contemp Oncol (Pozn))
Early growth response 1 regulatory roles extend to angiogenesis, cell adhesion, and resistance to chemotherapy, notably influencing pathways like hypoxia-inducible factor 1α and vascular endothelial growth factor A. Early growth response 1 can also induce cell adhesion, migration, chemoresistance against temozolomide, stemness, and self-renewal in glioblastoma cells...The key findings of this review are the context- dependent nature of EGR1's actions and its potential as a prognostic marker in glioblastoma. Further research is needed to understand EGR1's role fully and exploit its potential in clinics.

Myeloid PTEN loss affects the therapeutic response by promoting stress granule assembly and impairing phagocytosis by macrophages in breast cancer. (PubMed, Cell Death Discov)
In a BRCA neoadjuvant cohort, we observed a poorer response in myeloid PTENlow patients with G3BP1 aggregating as SGs in CD68+ cells, a finding that was consistent with the observation in our study that PTEN-deficient macrophages tended to more readily assemble SGs with impaired phagocytosis. Our results revealed the unconventional impact of SGs on BMDMs and might provide new perspectives on drug resistance and therapeutic strategies for the treatment of BRCA patients.

WTAP/IGF2BP3 mediated m6A modification of the EGR1/PTEN axis regulates the malignant phenotypes of endometrial cancer stem cells. (PubMed, J Exp Clin Cancer Res)
We found that WTAP and m6A levels decreased in both EC and ECSCs, and that knocking down WTAP promoted ECCs and ECSCs properties, including proliferation, invasion, migration, cisplatin resistance, and self-renewal...Notably, the enforced overexpression of WTAP, EGR1, and PTEN inhibited the oncogenic effects of ECCs and ECSCs in vivo, and the combined overexpression of WTAP + EGR1 and EGR1 + PTEN further diminished the tumorigenic potential of these cells. Our findings revealed that the WTAP/EGR1/PTEN pathway is important regulator of EC stem cell maintenance, chemotherapeutic resistance, and tumorigenesis, suggesting a novel and promising therapeutic avenue for treating EC.

Stress granule-mediated sequestration of EGR1 mRNAs correlates with lomustine-induced cell death prevention. (PubMed, J Cell Sci)
Specifically, EGR1 mRNA was sequestered to SGs upon lomustine treatment, probably preventing its ribosome translation and consequently limiting the degree of apoptosis. Our data support the model where SGs can selectively sequester specific mRNAs in a stress-specific manner, modulate their availability for translation, and thus determine the fate of a stressed cell.
