Abstrakt: Despite recent advances in targeted therapies, the molecular mechanisms driving breast cancer initiation, progression, and metastasis are minimally understood. Growing evidence indicate that transfer RNA (tRNA)-derived small RNAs (tsRNA) contribute to biological control and aberrations associated with cancer development and progression. The runt-related transcription factor 1 (RUNX1) transcription factor is a tumor suppressor in the mammary epithelium whereas RUNX1 downregulation is functionally associated with breast cancer initiation and progression. We identified four tsRNA (ts-19, ts-29, ts-46, and ts-112) that are selectively responsive to expression of the RUNX1 tumor suppressor. Our finding that ts-112 and RUNX1 anticorrelate in normal-like mammary epithelial and breast cancer lines is consistent with tumor-related activity of ts-112 and tumor suppressor activity of RUNX1. Inhibition of ts-112 in MCF10CA1a aggressive breast cancer cells significantly reduced proliferation. Ectopic expression of a ts-112 mimic in normal-like mammary epithelial MCF10A cells significantly increased proliferation. These findings support an oncogenic potential for ts-112. Moreover, RUNX1 may repress ts-112 to prevent overactive proliferation in breast epithelial cells to augment its established roles in maintaining the mammary epithelium.
