Overview of Gene Research
PUF60, also known as Poly(U) binding splicing factor 60 kDa, is a nucleic acid-binding protein involved in multiple nuclear processes. It is essential for embryonic development, regulating gene expression and cellular growth through pre-mRNA splicing, apoptosis, and transcription regulation [2,4].
PUF60 depletion inhibits the G2/M transition of the cell cycle in lung adenocarcinoma cells, leading to reduced cell proliferation and tumor development. This is because PUF60 knockdown causes exon skipping in genes like CDC25C, resulting in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay and decreased protein levels [1].
In glioblastoma, PUF60 knockdown significantly decreases cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo by reducing the ubiquitination level of EGFR through transcriptional regulation of STUB1 [3].
In bladder cancer, PUF60 knockdown inhibits cell viability and colony formation, while its overexpression promotes these processes, and it activates the transcription of AURKA [5].
In breast cancer, upregulation of PUF60 accelerates cancer progression by downregulating PTEN expression [6].
In ovarian cancer, silencing PUF60 enhances the stability of mRNA transcripts involved in oxidative phosphorylation, reducing tumor cell proliferation and migration [7].
In conclusion, PUF60 is crucial for normal development and its dysregulation is involved in multiple cancers. Loss-of-function studies in various cancer cell models have revealed its role in promoting tumor progression through different molecular mechanisms, suggesting it could be a potential therapeutic target for cancer treatment.
