Regulation of SIRT2 by Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in colorectal cancer cells.

Activation of the Wnt/□-catenin pathway is one of the hallmarks of colorectal cancer (CRC). Sirtuin 2 (SIRT2) protein has been shown to inhibit CRC proliferation. Previously, we reported that SIRT2 plays an important role in the maintenance of normal intestinal cell homeostasis. Here, we show that SIRT2 is a direct target gene of Wnt/□-catenin signaling in CRC cells. Inhibition or knockdown of Wnt/□-catenin increased SIRT2 promoter activity and mRNA and protein expression, whereas activation of Wnt/□-catenin decreased SIRT2 promoter activity and expression. □-catenin was recruited to the promoter of SIRT2 and transcriptionally regulated SIRT2 expression. Wnt/□-catenin inhibition increased mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and CRC cell differentiation. Moreover, inhibition of OXPHOS attenuated the differentiation of CRC cells induced by Wnt/□-catenin inhibition. In contrast, inhibition or knockdown of SIRT2 decreased, while overexpression of SIRT2 increased, OXPHOS activity and differentiation in CRC cells. Consistently, inhibition or knockdown or SIRT2 attenuated the differentiation induced by Wnt/□-catenin inhibition. These results demonstrate that SIRT2 is a novel target gene of the Wnt/□-catenin signaling and contributes to the differentiation of CRC cells.
