Overexpression of Bcl-2 proteins like Bcl2L10 is linked to chemotherapy resistance and poor survival in several types of cancer. A particular SNP (rs2231292) in the BCL2L10 gene has been found to lower resistance to chemotherapy, leading to improved survival in acute leukemia and colorectal cancer patients. This study investigated the impact of this SNP in breast cancer, finding that individuals with the Nrh-R isoform of Bcl2L10 had higher sensitivity to cell death induction and potentially better outcomes.
Overexpression of Bcl-2 proteins such as Bcl2L10, also referred to as Nrh, is associated with resistance to therapy and poor survival in various cancers, including breast cancer, lung cancer, and leukemia. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of BCL2L10 in its BH4 domain at position 11 (BCL2L10 Leu11Arg, rs2231292), corresponding to position 11 in the Nrh open reading frame, is reported to lower resistance towards chemotherapy, with patients showing better survival in the context of acute leukemia and colorectal cancer. Using cellular models and clinical data, we aimed to extend this knowledge to breast cancer. We report that the homozygous status of the Nrh Leu11Arg isoform (Nrh-R) is found in 9.7-11% percent of the clinical datasets studied. Furthermore, Nrh-R confers higher sensitivity towards Thapsigargin-induced cell death compared to the Nrh-L isoform, due to altered interactions with IP(3)R1 Ca2+ channels in the former case. Collectively, our data show that cells expressing the Nrh-R isoform are more prone to death triggered by Ca2+ stress inducers, compared to Nrh-L expressing cells. Analysis of breast cancer cohorts revealed that patients genotyped as Nrh-R/Nrh-R may have a better outcome. Overall, this study supports the notion that the rs2231292 Nrh SNP could be used as a predictive tool regarding chemoresistance, improving therapeutic decision-making processes. Moreover, it sheds new light on the contribution of the BH4 domain to the anti-apoptotic function of Nrh and identifies the IP(3)R1/Nrh complex as a potential therapeutic target in the context of breast cancer.
