摘要

The highly proliferative nature of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) frequently results in a hypoxic intratumoural microenvironment, which creates a therapeutic challenge owing to a lack of mechanistic understanding of the phenomenon. We aimed to identify critical drivers of HCC development and progression in the hypoxic microenvironment.We performed integrative analysis of multiple transcriptomic and genomic profiles specific for HCC and hypoxia and identified the Ephrin-A3/Eph receptor A2 (EphA2) axis as a clinically relevant and hypoxia-inducible signalling axis in HCC. The functional significance and mechanistic consequences of the Ephrin-A3/EphA2 axis were examined in EFNA3- and EPHA2- knockdown/overexpressing HCC cells. The potential downstream pathways were investigated by transcriptome sequencing, quantitative reverse-transcription PCR, western blotting analysis and metabolomics.EFNA3 was frequently upregulated in HCC and its overexpression was associated with more aggressive tumour behaviours. HIF-1α directly and positively regulated EFNA3 expression under hypoxia. EFNA3 functionally contributed to self-renewal, proliferation and migration in HCC cells. EphA2 was identified as a key functional downstream mediator of EFNA3. Functional characterisation of the Ephrin-A3/EphA2 forward-signalling axis demonstrated a promotion of self-renewal ability and tumour initiation. Mechanistically, the Ephrin-A3/EphA2 axis promoted the maturation of SREBP1 and expression of its transcriptional target, ACLY, was significantly associated with the expression of EFNA3 and hypoxia markers in clinical cohorts. The metabolic signature of EPHA2 and ACLY stable knockdown HCC cells demonstrated significant overlap in fatty acid, cholesterol and tricarboxylic acid cycle metabolite profiles. ACLY was confirmed to mediate the self-renewal function of the Ephrin-A3/EphA2 axis.Our findings revealed the novel role of the Ephrin-A3/EphA2 axis as a hypoxia-sensitive modulator of HCC cell metabolism and a key contributor to HCC initiation and progression.Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a fast-growing tumour; hence, areas of the tumour often have insufficient vasculature and become hypoxic. The presence of hypoxia within tumours has been shown to negatively impact on the survival of patients with tumours, including HCC. Herein, we identified the Ephrin-A3/EphA2 axis as a key functional driver of tumour initiation and progression in response to hypoxia. Additionally, we showed that SREBP1-ACLY-mediated metabolic rewiring was an important downstream effector that induced cancer stemness in response to Ephrin-A3/EphA2 forward-signalling.
