Knockdown of SENP1 inhibits HIF-1α SUMOylation and suppresses oncogenic CCNE1 in Wilms tumor
Based on our initial bioinformatics finding of the upregulated expression of sentrin-specific protease 1 (SENP1) and cyclin E1 (CCNE1) in Wilms tumor, this study aimed to illustrate the molecular mechanism of SENP1 in Wilms tumor, which involved the hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α)/stanniocalcin...

| Sumario: | Based on our initial bioinformatics finding of the upregulated expression of sentrin-specific protease 1 (SENP1) and cyclin E1 (CCNE1) in Wilms tumor, this study aimed to illustrate the molecular mechanism of SENP1 in Wilms tumor, which involved the hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α)/stanniocalcin-1 (STC1)/CCNE1 axis. Wilms tumor and adjacent normal tissues were clinically collected. Gain- and loss-of-function assays were performed to evaluate the effects of the regulatory axis on malignant phenotypes of Wilms tumor cells. A mouse model of Wilms tumor xenografts was further established for in vivo substantiation. Overexpression of CCNE1 and SENP1 occurred in Wilms tumor tissues and cells. Silencing SENP1 inhibited viability and enhanced cell-cycle arrest of Wilms tumor cells. SENP1 promoted STC1 expression and upregulated CCNE1 by driving the small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO)ylation of HIF-1α, which ultimately promoted the malignant phenotypes of Wilms tumor cells. It was further confirmed that silencing SENP1 downregulated the expression of CCNE1 and restricted tumorigenicity of Wilms tumor cells in vivo. Taken together, SENP1 elevated STC1 expression by driving the SUMOylation of HIF-1α, thereby upregulating the expression of CCNE1 and ultimately promoting the development of Wilms tumor. |
