Triciribine Engages ZFP36L1 and HuR to Stabilize LDLR mRNA
Open accessAbstract
An increased understanding of low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) and its regulation may facilitate drug development for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia. Triciribine (TCN), which is a highly selective AKT inhibitor, increases the stability of LDLR mRNA downstream of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) in human hepatoma cells (HepG2). Here, a candidate approach was used in order to determine whether the RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) ZFP36 ring finger protein like 1 (ZFP36L1) and Hu antigen R (HuR) play a role in TCN-mediated stabilization of LDLR mRNA. The depletion of HuR led to a reduction of LDLR mRNA stability, an event that was more pronounced in TCN-treated cells. TCN was found to induce the translocation of nuclear HuR to cytoplasm in an ERK-dependent manner. ZFP36L1 depletion increased the stability of LDLR mRNA consistent with its destabilizing role. However, in contrast to HuR, TCN had no effect on LDLR mRNA turnover in ZFP36L1-depleted cells. TCN induced the phosphorylation of ZFP36L1 in an ERK/RSK-dependent manner and promoted its dissociation from the CCR4-NOT complex. In sum, these data suggest that TCN utilizes ERK signaling to increase the activity of HuR and inhibit ZFP36L1 to stabilize LDLR mRNA in HepG2 cells.
Overview
AI snapshot
Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
Triciribine (TCN) stabilizes LDLR mRNA in HepG2 cells by ERK-dependent activation of HuR and inhibition of ZFP36L1. HuR depletion reduces LDLR mRNA stability, while ZFP36L1 depletion increases it; TCN promotes cytoplasmic HuR translocation and ERK/RSK1-dependent ZFP36L1 phosphorylation with dissociation from CNOT7.
Key findings
- HuR depletion reduced LDLR protein and mRNA by approximately 30% and only slightly decreased LDLR mRNA stability; in TCN-treated cells, HuR depletion more prominently reduced LDLR expression and increased LDLR mRNA turnover.
- ZFP36L1 depletion enhanced LDLR protein and mRNA expression twofold and increased LDLR mRNA stability; in ZFP36L1-depleted cells, TCN had no effect on LDLR protein, mRNA, or mRNA turnover.
- TCN induced ZFP36L1 phosphorylation in an ERK/RSK1-dependent manner, as shown by gel mobility shift that was lost with U0126 or BI-D1870 and eliminated by CIAP; TCN also reduced ZFP36L1 interaction with CNOT7, partially reversed by U0126.
- TCN increased cytoplasmic HuR about twofold and promoted nuclear-to-cytoplasmic HuR translocation in an ERK-dependent manner; approximately 30% of the TCN induction on LDLR mRNA stability could be explained by HuR and ZFP36L1.
Methods
- HepG2 human hepatoma cells were treated with 1 µM triciribine (TCN), 100 ng/mL PMA, 10 µM U0126, 10 µM BI-D1870, and 5 µg/mL actinomycin D; siRNA was used against HuR, ZFP36L1, or RSK1.
- Main analyses included Western blotting, quantitative real-time PCR, mRNA stability assays after actinomycin D, immunoprecipitation of FLAG- or HA-tagged proteins, subcellular fractionation, and confocal immunofluorescence microscopy.
- Statistical comparisons used unpaired or paired two-tailed Student’s t-tests with p < 0.05 considered significant; experiments with target knockdown below 70% or failed TCN induction of LDLR mRNA (2–4 fold) were excluded.
Limitations
- The paper states that HuR knockdown efficiency was only approximately 70%, that the HuR-depletion effect on LDLR mRNA stability was less prominent than in another study, and that a stronger effect would be expected with more efficient knockdown.
- The paper states that only approximately 30% of the TCN induction on LDLR mRNA stability could be explained by HuR and ZFP36L1, and that other transacting proteins are likely involved; a more comprehensive screen of proteins binding the LDLR 3′UTR after TCN treatment is needed.
- Evident from the text: the study is limited to HepG2 cells and a candidate-protein approach, with no in vivo or broader cell-type validation reported.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-11-10, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-11-10 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
