Abstract The FDA-approved anti-androgen Enzalutamide (Enz) has been used successfully as the last line therapy to extend castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients’ survival by an extra 4.8 months. However, CRPC patients eventually develop Enz-resistance that may involve the induction of the androgen receptor (AR) splicing variant ARv7. Here we found that Cisplatin (Cis) or Carboplatin, currently used in chemotherapy/radiation therapy to suppress tumor progression, could restore the Enz sensitivity in multiple Enz-resistant (EnzR) CRPC cells via directly degrading/suppressing the ARv7. Combining Cis or Carboplatin with Enz therapy can also delay the development of Enz-resistance in CRPC C4-2 cells. Mechanism dissection found that Cis or Carboplatin might decrease the ARv7 expression via multiple mechanisms including targeting the lncRNA-Malat1/SF2 RNA splicing complex and increasing ARv7 degradation via altering ubiquitination. Preclinical studies using in vivo mouse model with implanted EnzR1-C4-2 cells also demonstrated that Cis plus Enz therapy resulted in better suppression of EnzR CRPC progression than Enz treatment alone. These results not only unveil the previously unrecognized Cis mechanism to degrade ARv7 via targeting the Malat1/SF2 complex and ubiquitination signals, it may also provide a novel and ready therapy to further suppress the EnzR CRPC progression in the near future.

The splicing regulator protein Tra2β is conserved between humans and insects and is essential for mouse development. Recent identification of physiological RNA targets has started to uncover molecular targets and mechanisms of action of Tra2β. At a transcriptome-wide level, Tra2β protein binds a matrix of AGAA-rich sequences mapping frequently to exons. Particular tissue-specific alternatively spliced exons contain high concentrations of high scoring Tra2β-binding sites and bind Tra2β strongly in vitro. These top exons were also activated for splicing inclusion in cellulo by co-expression of Tra2β protein and were significantly down-regulated after genetic depletion of Tra2β. Tra2β itself seems to be fairly evenly expressed across several different mouse tissues. In the present paper, we review the properties of Tra2β and its regulated target exons, and mechanisms through which this fairly evenly expressed alternative splicing regulator might drive tissue-specific splicing patterns.
