Abstract
Hormone receptor-positive breast cancer is the most common subtype of breast cancer. The protein phosphatase PP1A gene is described as an oncogene in several tumor types; however, the biological function of PP1A in hormone receptor-positive breast cancer remains unclear. The Cancer Genome Atlas data indicates PP1A expression is upregulated in hormone receptor-positive breast cancer tissues than in normal breast tissues. We explored the biological function of PP1A in hormone receptor-positive breast cancer using MTT assays, colony formation assays, and a xenograft mouse model. The results indicated that PP1A promoted hormone receptor-positive breast cancer proliferation, both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, LINC02754 recruited the binding of the transcription factor E2F1 to the PP1A promotor, thereby increasing PP1A expression. The PP1A then interacted with and dephosphorylated YAP1, resulting in YAP1 activation. The dephosphorylated YAP1 moved to the nucleus and increased the expression of the downstream oncogene CTGF, promoting hormone receptor-positive breast cancer progression. Our findings reveal the function of the LINC02754/E2F1/PP1A/YAP1 axis in hormone receptor-positive breast cancer and provide new insight into hormone receptor-positive breast cancer progression.
