YY1 is a key transcription factor and plays different roles in various cancers. However, role and mechanism of YY1 in laryngeal cancer are still unknown. YY1 and MYCT1 mRNA and protein levels were detected by Real-time RT-PCR and Western Blot methods, respectively. Binding of YY1 to MYCT1 promoter was predicted and confirmed by bioinformatics and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays, respectively. MYCT1 promoter activity was assessed by dual luciferase assay system. Laryngeal cancer cell proliferation, migration, and apoptosis were evaluated by cell viability, colony formation, cell scratch assay, transwell assay, and flow cytometry methods, respectively. YY1 and MYCT1 were upregulated and downregulated at transcriptional level in laryngeal cancer, respectively, which showed a negative correlation between YY1 and MYCT1 expression in laryngeal cancer. Significantly higher expression of YY1 and lower expression of MYCT1 were found in laryngeal cancer tissues of patients with lymphatic metastasis than those without metastasis.YY1 directly bound to MYCT1 promoter region and inhibited its promoter activity. YY1 silence had similar biological functions as MYCT1 overexpression in repressiveness of proliferation and migration, and promotion of apoptosis in laryngeal cancer cells. However, the effects of YY1 silence were recovered by MYCT1 knockdown. YY1 promotes proliferation and migration with suppression of apoptosis via directly inhibiting MYCT1 in laryngeal cancer cells, suggesting that YY1 is a useful target as a potential oncogene in laryngeal cancer development and progression.
