m6A Target Gene Information

General Information of the m6A Target Gene (ID: M6ATAR00625)
Target Name Homeobox protein Nkx-3.1 (NKX3-1)
Synonyms
Homeobox protein NK-3 homolog A
    Click to Show/Hide
Gene Name NKX3-1
Chromosomal Location 8p21.2
Family NK-3 homeobox family
Function
Transcription factor, which binds preferentially the consensus sequence 5'-TAAGT[AG]-3' and can behave as a transcriptional repressor. Plays an important role in normal prostate development, regulating proliferation of glandular epithelium and in the formation of ducts in prostate. Acts as a tumor suppressor controlling prostate carcinogenesis, as shown by the ability to inhibit proliferation and invasion activities of PC-3 prostate cancer cells.

Experiment 1 Reporting the m6A Methylation Regulator of This Target Gene [1]
Response Summary Knock-down of YTHDF2 or METTL3 significantly induced the expression of LHPP and Homeobox protein Nkx-3.1 (NKX3-1) at both mRNA and protein level with inhibited phosphorylated AKT. YTHDF2 mediates the mRNA degradation of the tumor suppressors LHPP and NKX3-1 in m6A-dependent way to regulate AKT phosphorylation-induced tumor progression in prostate cancer.

In-vivo Model Approximately 2 × 106 PCa cells (PC-3 shNC, shYTHDF2, shMETTL3 cell lines) per mouse suspended in 100 uL PBS were injected in the flank of male BALB/c nude mice (4 weeks old). During the 40-day observation, the tumor size (V = (width2×length ×0.52)) was measured with vernier caliper. Approximately 1.5 × 106 PCa cells suspended in 100 uL of PBS (PC-3 shNC, shYTHDF2, and shMETTL3 cell lines) per mouse were injected into the tail vein of male BALB/c nude mice (4 weeks old). The IVIS Spectrum animal imaging system (PerkinElmer) was used to evaluate the tumor growth (40 days) and whole metastasis conditions (4 weeks and 6 weeks) with 100 uL XenoLight D-luciferin Potassium Salt (15 mg/ml, Perkin Elmer) per mouse. Mice were anesthetized and then sacrificed for tumors and metastases which were sent for further organ-localized imaging as above, IHC staining and hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) staining.
