Alternative splicing (AS) produces the different mRNA splicing bodies, which are then translated into multiple protein isoforms and participate in various biological functions. With a deeper understanding of alternative splicing through the study of transcriptomes using high-throughput sequencing-based methods, the correlation between aberrant AS and diseases triggered a great concern, especially abnormal AS and cancer. Medulloblastoma (MB) is an intracranial tumor in children. Sonic hedgehog MB (SHH-MB) accounted for approximately 30% of MB, which is associated with the activation of SHH signaling. Growing evidence shows that aberrant AS is closely related to the tumorigenesis of MB. Here, we briefly introduced the AS and its mechanism. Next, we described canonical/noncanonical hedgehog signaling and its correlation with MB. The main description focused on AS of various regulators in canonical hedgehog signaling in MB. In addition, we also described AS of various regulators in noncanonical hedgehog signaling. Meanwhile, activated hedgehog signaling also induces AS in MB. Then, we pointed out that aberrant AS of hedgehog signaling is associated with different MB subgroups. Finally, we summarized the therapeutic applications of targeted AS in cancer treatment. In summary, further understanding of AS in SHH-MB could develop therapeutic targets for splicing factors which may be a novel therapeutic strategy.
可变剪接(AS)产生不同的mRNA剪接体,这些剪接体随后被翻译成多种蛋白质异构体并参与各种生物学功能。随着通过基于高通量测序的方法对转录组进行研究,人们对可变剪接有了更深入的了解,异常可变剪接与疾病之间的相关性引发了极大关注,尤其是异常可变剪接与癌症的关系。髓母细胞瘤(MB)是儿童颅内肿瘤。音猬因子髓母细胞瘤(SHH-MB)约占髓母细胞瘤的30%,与SHH信号通路的激活有关。越来越多的证据表明,异常可变剪接与髓母细胞瘤的肿瘤发生密切相关。在此,我们简要介绍了可变剪接及其机制。接下来,我们描述了经典/非经典音猬因子信号通路及其与髓母细胞瘤的相关性。主要描述集中在髓母细胞瘤中经典音猬因子信号通路中各种调节因子的可变剪接。此外,我们还描述了非经典音猬因子信号通路中各种调节因子的可变剪接。同时,激活的音猬因子信号通路也会在髓母细胞瘤中诱导可变剪接。然后,我们指出音猬因子信号通路的异常可变剪接与不同的髓母细胞瘤亚组有关。最后,我们总结了靶向可变剪接在癌症治疗中的治疗应用。总之,进一步了解SHH-MB中的可变剪接可以开发针对剪接因子的治疗靶点,这可能是一种新的治疗策略。
