الوصف: | The chromatin-modifying enzyme ATAD2 confers oncogenic competence and proliferative advantage in malignances. We previously identified ATAD2 as a marker and driver of cell proliferation in ovarian cancer (OC); however, the mechanisms whereby ATAD2 is regulated and involved in cell proliferation are still unclear. Here, we disclose that ATAD2 displays a classical G2/M gene signature, functioning to facilitate mitotic progression. ATAD2 ablation caused mitotic arrest and decreased the ability of OC cells to pass through nocodazole-arrested mitosis. ChIP-seq data analyses demonstrated that DREAM and MYBL2-MuvB (MMB), two switchable MuvB-based complexes, bind the CHR elements in the ATAD2 promoter, representing a typical feature and principle mechanism of the periodic regulation of G2/M genes. As a downstream target of MYBL2, ATAD2 deletion significantly impaired MYBL2-driven cell proliferation. Intriguingly, ATAD2 silencing also fed back to destabilize the MYBL2 protein. The significant coexpression of MYBL2 and ATAD2 at both the bulk tissue and single-cell levels highlights the existence of the MYBL2-ATAD2 signaling in OC patients. This signaling is activated during tumorigenesis and correlated with TP53 mutation, and its hyperactivation was found especially in high-grade serous and drug-resistant OCs. Disrupting this signaling by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated ATAD2 ablation inhibited the in vivo growth of OC in a subcutaneous tumor xenograft mouse model, while pharmacologically targeting this signaling with an ATAD2 inhibitor demonstrated high therapeutic efficacy in both drug-sensitive and drug-resistant OC cells. Collectively, we identified a novel MYBL2-ATAD2 proliferative signaling axis and highlighted its potential application in developing new therapeutic strategies, especially for high-grade serous and drug-resistant OCs. |
