Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignant cancers and
currently the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths, worldwide.
Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a major role in HCC progression. In
this study, we first found that the expression of E74-like ETS transcription
factor 3 (ELF3), a member of the E-twenty-six family of transcription factors,
was increased in HCC tissues, and that ELF3 overexpression was associated with
poor prognoses for HCC patients. Gain-of-function and loss-of-function studies
revealed that increased ELF3 expression promoted HCC cell proliferation,
migration, and invasion, while these processes were inhibited when ELF3 was
silenced. Additionally, ELF3 was found to promote EMT, which we demonstrated
through decreased E-cadherin expression and increased N-cadherin and fibronectin
expression. ELF3 knockdown reversed EMT via repressing ZEB1 expression through
miR-141-3p upregulation. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays revealed that ELF3
bound to the miR-141-3p promoter, suppressing miR-141-3p expression. Taken
together, our data show that ELF3 repressed E-cadherin and promoted EMT in HCC
cells by suppressing miR-141-3p, thereby activating ZEB1. Thus, ELF3 may be a
potential prognostic biomarker and/or therapeutic target for HCC.
