The zinc finger transcription factor Krüppel-like factor 4 (KLF4) is frequently downregulated in colorectal cancer. Previous studies showed that KLF4 is a tumor suppressor in the intestinal tract and plays an important role in DNA damage-repair mechanisms. Here, the in vivo effects of Klf4 deletion were examined from the mouse intestinal epithelium (Klf4(ΔIS)) in a genetic or pharmacological setting of colonic tumorigenesis:Apc(Min/⁺) mutation or carcinogen treatment with azoxymethane (AOM), respectively.Klf4 (ΔIS)/Apc (Min/⁺) mice developed significantly more colonic adenomas with 100% penetrance as compared with Apc(Min/⁺) mice with intact Klf4 (Klf4(fl/fl)/Apc (Min/⁺)). The colonic epithelium of Klf4 (ΔIS)/Apc (Min/⁺)mice showed increased mTOR pathway activity, together with dysregulated epigenetic mechanism as indicated by altered expression of HDAC1 and p300. Colonic adenomas from both genotypes stained positive for γH2AX, indicating DNA double-strand breaks. InKlf4 (ΔIS)/Apc (Min/+) mice, this was associated with reduced nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ) repair and homologous recombination repair (HRR) mechanisms as indicated by reduced Ku70 and Rad51 staining, respectively. In a separate model, following treatment with AOM, Klf4 (ΔIS) mice developed significantly more colonic tumors than Klf4 (fl/fl) mice, with more Klf4 (ΔIS) mice harboring K-Rasmutations than Klf4 (fl/fl)mice. Compared with AOM-treated Klf4 (fl/fl)mice, adenomas of treated Klf4 (ΔIS) mice had suppressed NHEJ and HRR mechanisms, as indicated by reduced Ku70 and Rad51 staining. This study highlights the important role of KLF4 in suppressing the development of colonic neoplasia under different tumor-promoting conditions.

Implications

The study demonstrates that KLF4 plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of colorectal neoplasia."xsd:string
