- W2102627473 abstract "The HBx oncoprotein of hepatitis B virus has been implicated in the development and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HBx engages multiple signalling and growth-promoting pathways to induce cell proliferation and enhance ribosome biogenesis. Interestingly, the levels of Upstream Binding Factor (UBF) required for rDNA transcription and ribosome biogenesis are found elevated in the HCC patients. However, the molecular mechanism of UBF overexpression under the HBx microenvironment and consequent cell transformation remains elusive.The UBF gene expression was investigated after co-expressing HBx in immortalized human hepatocytes (IHH) and human hepatoma Huh7 cells. Gene expression analysis involved estimation of mRNA level by real-time PCR, western blotting of protein, chromatin immune-precipitation assay, BrdU incorporation assay and soft agar colony formation assay. UBF expression was also investigated in an HBx transgenic mouse model of HCC to get a better mechanistic insight under more physiological conditions.Ectopic expression of HBx in IHH as well as Huh7 cells led to a marked increase in UBF expression both at mRNA and protein levels. Elevated levels of UBF were also observed in the hepatic tumors of HBx transgenic mice. Our ChIP studies revealed a marked increase in the occupancy of c-Myc on the UBF gene promoter in the presence of HBx and increase in its transcription. Enhanced UBF expression under the HBx microenvironment led to a marked increase in cell proliferation and transformation of IHH cells.Our study provides some compelling evidences in support of HBx-mediated increase in UBF levels that abets oncogenic onslaught in hepatic cells by increasing rDNA transcription and ribosome biogenesis." @default.
