While plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is known to potentiate cellular migration via proteolytic regulation, this adipokine is implicated as an oncogenic ligand in the tumor microenvironment. To understand the underlying paracrine mechanism, here, we conduct transcriptomic analysis of 1,898 endometrial epithelial cells (EECs) exposed and unexposed to PAI-1-secreting adipose stromal cells. The PAI-1-dependent action deregulates crosstalk among tumor-promoting and tumor-repressing pathways, including transforming growth factor β (TGF-β). When PAI-1 is tethered to lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1), the internalized signaling causes downregulation of SMAD4 at the transcriptional and post-translational levels that attenuates TGF-β-related transcription programs. Repression of genes encoding the junction and adhesion complex preferentially occurs in SMAD4-underexpressed EECs of persons with obesity. The findings highlight a role of PAI-1 signaling that renders ineffective intercellular communication for the development of adiposity-associated endometrial cancer.
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), including natural antisense transcripts (NATs), are expressed more extensively than previously anticipated and have widespread roles in regulating gene expression. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms of action of the majority of NATs remain largely unknown. Here, we identify a NAT of low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (Lrp1), referred to as Lrp1-AS, that negatively regulates Lrp1 expression. We show that Lrp1-AS directly binds to high-mobility group box 2 (Hmgb2) and inhibits the activity of Hmgb2 to enhance Srebp1a-dependent transcription of Lrp1. Short oligonucleotides targeting Lrp1-AS inhibit the interaction of antisense transcript and Hmgb2 protein and increase Lrp1 expression by enhancing Hmgb2 activity. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis of brain tissue samples from Alzheimer's disease patients and aged-matched controls revealed upregulation of LRP1-AS and downregulation of LRP1. Our data suggest a regulatory mechanism whereby a NAT interacts with a ubiquitous chromatin-associated protein to modulate its activity in a locus-specific fashion.
Understanding how p53 activates certain gene programs and not others is critical. Here, we identify low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1), a transmembrane endocytic receptor, as a p53 target gene. We show that, although LRP1 transcript expression is upregulated in response to both sub-lethal and lethal doses of p53-activating stress, LRP1 protein is only upregulated in response to sub-lethal stress. Interestingly, lethal doses of p53-activating stress inhibit LRP1 de novo translation through an miRNA-based translational repression mechanism. We show that the p53-regulated miRNAs miR-103 and miR-107 are significantly upregulated by lethal doses of stress, resulting in suppression of LRP1 translation and cell death. Our results define a negative feedback loop involving the p53-regulated coding gene LRP1 and p53-regulated miRNA genes. These findings provide mechanistic insight into the selective expression of p53 target genes in response to different stress intensities to elicit either cell survival or cell death.
