The mechanism of SP1/p300 complex promotes proliferation of multiple myeloma cells through regulating IQGAP1 transcription. Biomed Pharmacother. 2019 Sep 16;119:109434 Authors: Jin Z, Zhou S, Ye H, Jiang S, Yu K, Ma Y Abstract Our previous research had firstly shown that MM cells overexpressed IQGAP1 gene and activated Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK pathway. But the mechanism of IQGAP1 overexpression and IQGAP1 gene transcription regulation remains uncertain. The mechanism of IQGAP1 overexpression and transcriptional regulation of IQGAP1 gene in myeloma cells was explored in the study. Through bioinformatics analysis and prediction we predicted and screened transcription factor Sp1 as a possible upstream regulator of IQGAP1.The proliferation, cell cycle and downstream ERK1/2 and p-ERK1/2 proteins were detected after siRNA-IQGAP1 was transfected to myeloma cells. The expression of Sp1, p300, IQGAP1, p-ERK1/2 and ERK1/2 were detected after Sp1 and p300 were inhibited or overexpressed respectively. The dual-luciferase reporter system was used to detect the activity of IQGAP1 gene promoter. CHIP was used to detect the binding of the Sp1 and IQGAP1 promoter regions.CO-IP was used to explore the interaction between Sp1 and p300.The mRNA expression levels of Sp1,p300 and IQGAP1 of the myeloma patients were detected, and the correlation analysis of their mRNA expression levels were carried out. The results showed IQGAP1-siRNA inhibits cell proliferation, c...
