ABSTRACT
Downregulated RNA-binding motif protein 5 (RBM5) promotes the development and progression of various tumors, including bladder cancer (BC). Alternative splicing (AS) plays a crucial role in the progression of cancer by producing protein isomers with different functions or by promoting nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). However, whether RBM5 modulates the progression of BC through AS-NMD remains unexplored. In this study, we revealed that the downregulation of RBM5 expression promoted the expression of coactivator-associated arginine methyltransferase 1 (CARM1) in BC cells and tissues. Increased expression of CARM1 facilitated the activation of the Wnt/ß-catenin axis and cell proliferation, which then contributed to the poor prognosis of patients with BC. Interestingly, RBM5 bound directly to CARM1 mRNA and participated in AS-NMD, downregulating the expression of CARM1. In addition, we revealed that protein kinase catalytic subunit alpha (PRKACA) functioned as a phosphorylated kinase of GSK3ß, was regulated by CARM1 at the transcription level, and promoted the growth and progression of BC cells. Furthermore, in this study, we demonstrated a regulatory mechanism of Wnt/ß-catenin activation through the RBM5/CARM1/PRKACA axis and identified a novel potential target for treating BC.
