Altered DNA methylation is a key feature of cancer, and aberrant methylation is important in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) development. However, the methylation mechanisms underlying metastasis of NPC remain unclear. Analyzing data from public databases and conducting our own experiments, we report here that promoter hypermethylation ofSHISA3is common and contributes to the downregulation of this gene in many types of tumors, including NPC.SHISA3suppressed NPC cell invasion and metastasisin vitroandin vivoby impeding the E3 ubiquitin ligase tripartite motif containing 21 (TRIM21)–mediated ubiquitination and degradation small G protein signaling modulator 1 (SGSM1) and by inhibiting the MAPK pathway activation. SilencingSGSM1abrogated the inhibitory effect ofSHISA3on NPC cell migration and invasion. This newly identifiedSHISA3–TRIM21–SGSM1axis could be a novel therapeutic target in NPC.SignificanceThese findings highlight the mechanism by which a newly identified tumor suppressor SHISA3 suppresses invasion and metastasis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
