Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is required for the specification of
tissues during embryonic development and is recapitulated during the metastatic
progression of tumors. The miR-200 family plays a critical role in enforcing the
epithelial state with their expression lost in cells undergoing EMT. EMT can be
mediated by activation of the ZEB1 and ZEB2 (ZEB) transcription factors, which
repress miR-200 expression via a self-reinforcing double negative feedback loop
to promote the mesenchymal state. However, it remains unclear what factors drive
and maintain epithelial-specific expression of miR-200 in the absence of
EMT-inducing factors. Here, we show that the transcription factor Specificity
Protein 1 (Sp1) binds to the miR-200b?200a?429 proximal promoter and activates
miR-200 expression in epithelial cells. In mesenchymal cells, Sp1 expression is
maintained, but its ability to activate the miR-200 promoter is perturbed by
ZEB-mediated repression. Reduction of Sp1 expression caused changes in
EMT-associated markers in epithelial cells. Furthermore, we observed
co-expression of Sp1 and miR-200 during mouse embryonic development wherein
miR-200 expression was only lost in regions with high ZEB expression. Together,
these findings indicate that miR-200 family members require Sp1 to drive basal
expression and to maintain an epithelial state.
