A wealth of evidence supports the broad therapeutic potential of NF‐κB and EZH2 inhibitors as adjuvants for breast cancer treatment. We contribute to this knowledge by elucidating, for the first time, unique regulatory crosstalk between EZH2, NF‐κB and the NF‐κB interacting long non‐coding RNA (NKILA). We define a novel signaling loop encompassing canonical and non‐canonical actions of EZH2 on the regulation of NF‐κB/NKILA homeostasis, with relevance to breast cancer treatment. We applied a respective silencing approach in non‐transformed breast epithelial cells, triple negative MDA‐MB‐231 cells and hormone responsive MCF‐7 cells, and measured changes in EZH2/NF‐κB/NKILA levels to confirm their interdependence. We demonstrate cell line‐specific fluctuations in these factors that functionally contribute to epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) remodelling and cell fate response. EZH2 inhibition attenuates MDA‐MB‐231 cell motility and CDK4‐mediated MCF‐7 cell cycle regulation, while inducing global H3K27 methylation and an EMT phenotype in non‐transformed cells. Notably, these events are mediated by a cell‐context dependent gain or loss of NKILA and NF‐κB. Depletion of NF‐κB in non‐transformed cells enhances their sensitivity to growth factor signaling and suggests a role for the host microenvironment milieu in regulating EZH2/NF‐κB/NKILA homeostasis. Taken together, this knowledge critically informs the delivery and assessment of EZH2 inhibitors in breast cancer. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
