Abstract
In response to DNA double-strand breaks, MAD2L2-containing shieldin complex plays a critical role in the choice between homologous recombination (HR) and non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ)-mediated repair. Here we show that EZH2 inhibition upregulates MAD2L2 and sensitizes HR-proficient epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) to poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor in a CARM1-dependent manner. CARM1 promotes MAD2L2 silencing by driving the switch from the SWI/SNF complex to EZH2 through methylating the BAF155 subunit of the SWI/SNF complex on the MAD2L2 promoter. EZH2 inhibition upregulates MAD2L2 to decrease DNA end resection, which increases NHEJ and chromosomal abnormalities, ultimately causing mitotic catastrophe in PARP inhibitor treated HR-proficient cells. Significantly, EZH2 inhibitor sensitizes CARM1-high, but not CARM-low, EOCs to PARP inhibitors in both orthotopic and patient-derived xenografts.Entities:
