Outline of Research at the Start |
がん細胞では特定の遺伝子領域が増える遺伝子増幅という現象が知られている。正常なゲノムでも遺伝子のコピー数の変異(CNV)が12000程度が知られており、CNVは遺伝子多型の一種と考えられるが、悪性腫瘍での異常なコピー数の増加は正常細胞ではみられず監視機構の存在が想像される。 我々が単離した抗がん剤ゲムシタビン(GEM)耐性細胞では特定の遺伝子が増幅して耐性化している。BHLHE41をこの細胞に発現させるとRRM1のコピー数が減少して、GEM耐性が減弱した。 増幅ゲノムに結合する分子群とBHLHE41で誘導される分子群について調べて遺伝子のコピー数を制限する分子機構について解明する。

Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Gene amplification is an abnormality in which the copy numbers of genomic genes highly increase in cancer cells. We found that expression of BHLHE41 suppresses gene amplification of the causative molecule of three drug-resistant cell lines. We analyzed genome changes in the copy number reduction of RRM1 gene by BHLHE41 using state-of-the-art NGS for whole genome sequence and genomic 3D structural changes. From the study on surgical resected lung cancer samples, BHLHE41 protein was expressed only in non-invasive lung cancer cells and was associated with a better prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma patients. BHLHE41 suppressed expression of the apoptosis-inducing molecule BAX, induced autophagic cell death, and also inhibited MYC oncogene-induced expression of several genes.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
遺伝子増幅は発がんや薬剤耐性の原因であるが、その発生機構は不明である。BHLHE41の発現が遺伝子増幅の程度を減少させることから、BHLHE41の機能を知ることでゲノムの恒常性維持の機構への理解が深まり、増幅遺伝子を減少させる新たな癌治療の可能性が開かれる。肺がん細胞での検討からはBHLHE41の発現は肺がん細胞にオートファジー細胞死を誘導して抗腫瘍作用を持つと考えられる。現在がん遺伝子MYCを標的とするがん治療は確立していないが、BHLHE41はMYCが誘導する遺伝子を発現を抑制するので、BHLHE41の研究はMYCの抑制を介した治療の発展に端緒となることが期待される。
