A functional interplay between Δ133p53 and ΔNp63 in promoting glycolytic metabolism to fuel cancer cell proliferation

Abstract: Although ΔNp63 is known to promote cancer cell proliferation, the underlying mechanism behind its oncogenic function remains elusive. We report here a functional interplay between ΔNp63 and Δ133p53. These two proteins are co-overexpressed in a subset of human cancers and cooperate to promote cell proliferation. Mechanistically, Δ133p53 binds to ΔNp63 and utilizes its transactivation domain to upregulate GLUT1, GLUT4, and PGM expression driving glycolysis. While increased glycolysis provides cancer cells with a… Show more

“… 36 The role of ΔNp63α in regulating cancer cell metabolism has been observed in various cancers. 37 38 ΔNp63α is one of the most important markers to distinguish the two main subtypes of NSCLC, adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. However, interestingly, the current evidence indicates that high expression of ΔNp63α could be frequently detected in lung squamous cell carcinoma, but rare in lung adenocarcinoma.…”

“…However, in the ER+ m TP53 tumours, mp53 blocks TAp63 activity freeing up Δ133p53 to drive transcription (Figure 7D ). This raises the paradox of how Δ133p53 can transactivate genes when it would also harbour mutations, and it is known that DNA binding domain mutants of Δ133p53 are defective for transactivation [ 29 ]. A possible explanation is that as the mutations in this tumour set are all heterozygous, there is one wild type Δ133TP53 in each tumour encoding a functional, transactivation competent Δ133p53 protein.…”

“…Some of the mouse models that were generated of N-terminally truncated p53 display a similar phenotype to mutant p53 (R172H or R270H) in promoting invasion and metastasis [52]. As ∆133p53 can interact and potentiate ∆Np63 function, perhaps the interaction between mutant p53 and ∆Np63 and ∆Np73 variants as well as expression of all p53 family isoforms should be more thoroughly investigated in these models [53]. Notably, mutant p53 R175H can readily interact with both p63 and p73 ∆N isoforms [46,49].…”
