Abstract: Constitutive NF-κB activation has causative roles in adult T cell leukemia (ATL) caused by HTLV-1 and other cancers. Here, we report a pathway involvingPolycomb-mediated miRNA silencing and NF-κB activation. We determine the miRNAsignatures and reveal miR-31 loss in primary ATL cells. MiR-31 negativelyregulates the noncanonical NF-κB pathway by targeting NF-κB inducing kinase(NIK). Loss of miR-31 therefore triggers oncogenic signaling. In ATL cells,miR-31 level is epigenetically regulated, and aberrant upregulation of Polycombproteins contribute to miR-31 downregulation in an epigenetic fashion, leading toactivation of NF-κB and apoptosis resistance. Furthermore, this emerging circuit operates in other cancers and receptor-initiated NF-κB cascade. Our findingsprovide a perspective involving the epigenetic program, inflammatory responses,and oncogenic signaling.
