    Increased ACSS2 catalyzes PNETs cells histone acetylation modification through pan‐acetylation regulation, and promotes FasL transcription and exocytosis of <t>sFasL</t> in PNET cells. A) ACSS2 enhances histone pan‐acetylation in PNET cell lines. After overexpression or knockdown of ACSS2, immunoblotting was performed with an antibody against ACSS2, using β‐actin as the loading control, and was performed with the antibodies against Ace‐H3, Ace‐H4, H3K9ac, H3K27ac, and H4K16ac, using H3 or H4 as the loading control. B) ACSS2 was overexpressed or knocked down in PNET cell lines, and acetyl‐CoA content was determined by fluorescence ELISA. The assay was repeated independently 3 times ( * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01). C) Cellular acetyl‐CoA content assay in BON‐1 and QGP‐1 cells after treatment with acetate supplementation or ACSS2i, respectively. D) Cross‐analysis of differentially expressed genes in the four comparison pairs (ACSS2‐OE vs EV‐up, ACSS2‐KO1 vs Ctrl‐down, ACSS2‐KO2 vs Ctrl‐down, ACSS2i vs DMSO‐down) yielded a total of 69 common genes. E) Ranking of the total number of pathways enriched for common genes. The vertical coordinate is the total number of pathways enriched to, and the horizontal coordinate is the gene name. F) FasLG gene expression levels were analyzed at the RNA level as verified by RT‐qPCR assays in different treatment groups of ACSS2 in BON‐1 and QGP‐1 cell lines, respectively ( * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, **** p < 0.0001).

    Transcription‐promoting factor AATF synergizes with ACSS2 to increase FasL expression A) Silver staining of SDS‐PAGE gels indicated ACSS2‐interacting proteins. Flag‐ACSS2 expression stable BON‐1 cells were lysed and immunoprecipitated with anti‐Flag Ab or rabbit IgG control Ab, and then subjected to SDS‐PAGE gel and silver staining. B) Representative tandem MS spectrum of the peptide LLSFMAPIDHTTMNDDAR from AATF as determined by IP‐Mass Spec. C) AATF was further identified to bind with ACSS2 by immunoprecipitation. Flag‐ACSS2 expression stable BON‐1 cells were lysed and immunoprecipitation with anti‐Flag Ab or abbit IgG control Ab, and then subjected to immunoblotting using antibodies against AATF. D) Endogenous ACSS2 colocalized with AATF in PNET cells. Localization of AATF (green) and ACSS2 (red) in BON‐1 and QGP‐1 cells was detected by double immunofluorescence labeling and confocal microscopy. The merged image with the yellow signal represented their colocalization. E) A ChIP‐re‐ChIP assay was conducted using anti‐AATF antibody first (AATF) in BON‐1 and QGP‐1 cells. The eluents were then subjected to a second ChIP assay using anti‐Flag‐ACSS2 antibody (AATF + Flag‐ACSS2) or control IgG antibody (AATF + IgG) (n = 3). F) Dual luciferase validation of AATF positive regulation of FasL transcription. Schematic representations of the reporter and effector constructs used in the dual‐LUC assay. Firefly luciferase (LUC) driven by the FasLG promoter was used as the reporter. Renilla luciferase (REN) was used as an internal control. G) The binding sites of ACSS2 and AATF protein were simulated using AutoDock Vina v.1.2.2 molecular docking analysis, whose low binding energy is −11.3 kcal mol −1 . H) Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) analysis using a Biacore 8K system (Cytiva) quantified the binding kinetics and affinity between the analyte (AATF) and immobilized ligand (ACSS2). Six serially diluted concentrations of AATF (range: 12.5 – 400 n m ) were injected over ACSS2‐coupled CM5 sensor chips. Real‐time binding curves demonstrated concentration‐dependent responses, yielding an equilibrium dissociation constant (K D ) of 33.3 ± 1.7 n m , indicative of high‐affinity molecular recognition. I) Overexpression (or knockdown) of AATF in PNET cells could lead to increased (or decreased) sFasL levels. ELISA assay of sFasL concentration levels in BON‐1 cell culture supernatants from different treatment groups. Five independent repetitions for each group ( * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01).

Localization of AATF (green) and ACSS2 (red) in BON‐1 and QGP‐1 cells was detected by double immunofluorescence labeling and confocal microscopy. The merged image with the yellow signal represented their colocalization. E) A ChIP‐re‐ChIP assay was conducted using anti‐AATF antibody first (AATF) in BON‐1 and QGP‐1 cells. The eluents were then subjected to a second ChIP assay using anti‐Flag‐ACSS2 antibody (AATF + Flag‐ACSS2) or control IgG antibody (AATF + IgG) (n = 3). F) Dual luciferase validation of AATF positive regulation of FasL transcription. Schematic representations of the reporter and effector constructs used in the dual‐LUC assay. Firefly luciferase (LUC) driven by the FasLG promoter was used as the reporter. Renilla luciferase (REN) was used as an internal control. G) The binding sites of ACSS2 and AATF protein were simulated using AutoDock Vina v.1.2.2 molecular docking analysis, whose low binding energy is −11.3 kcal mol −1 . H) Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) analysis using a Biacore 8K system (Cytiva) quantified the binding kinetics and affinity between the analyte (AATF) and immobilized ligand (ACSS2). Six serially diluted concentrations of AATF (range: 12.5 – 400 n m ) were injected over ACSS2‐coupled CM5 sensor chips. Real‐time binding curves demonstrated concentration‐dependent responses, yielding an equilibrium dissociation constant (K D ) of 33.3 ± 1.7 n m , indicative of high‐affinity molecular recognition. I) Overexpression (or knockdown) of AATF in PNET cells could lead to increased (or decreased) sFasL levels. ELISA assay of sFasL concentration levels in BON‐1 cell culture supernatants from different treatment groups. Five independent repetitions for each group ( * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01).

    AATF acts as an intranuclear guide that binds ACSS2 and localizes to the FasLG promoter region to enhance transcription in concert with histone pan‐acetylation modification. A) AATF binding to the FasLG promoter region and promoting transcription requires synergistic ACSS2‐mediated histone acetylation modifications. ChIP qRT‐PCR detection of AATF occupancy on the promoters of FasLG in BON‐1 cells and QGP‐1 cells. ChIP‐level antibodies against acetylation‐modified H3 and H4 were used to specifically pull down H3ac/H4ac histones in each treatment group. Silencing of ACSS2 expression after overexpression of AATF reversed the increase in FasLG promoter region occupancy caused by AATF overexpression (siNC + AATF‐OE vs EV + siNC, siNC + AATF‐OE vs AATF‐OE + siACSS2). The decrease in FasLG promoter region occupancy after silencing ACSS2 expression was not reversed by overexpression of AATF (EV + siACSS2 vs EV + siNC, EV + siACSS2 vs AATF‐OE + siACSS2) ( ** p < 0.01, ns indicates not significant). B) Enhancement of FasLG transcription by ACSS2 requires endogenous guidance of AATF and pro‐transcriptional regulation of the FasLG promoter region by AATF. ChIP qRT‐PCR detection of AATF occupancy on the promoters of FasLG in BON‐1 cells and QGP‐1 cells. ChIP‐level antibodies against acetylation‐modified H3 and H4 were used to specifically pull down H3ac/H4ac histones in each treatment group.

C,D) ELISA assay of sFasL concentration levels in BON‐1 and QGP‐1 cell culture supernatants from different treatment groups. Consistency in intergroup comparisons of different cell lines. Five independent repetitions for each group ( ** p < 0.01, ns indicates not significant). E) The percentage of apoptotic Jurkat cells after co‐cultured with BON‐1 and QGP‐1 cells among distinct groups ( ** p < 0.01, ns indicates not significant). F) FasL antibody (0.1 µg mL −1 ) was detected after 48 h of incubation in the lower chamber of co‐cultured six‐well plates ( ** p < 0.01). G,H) Validation of expression levels of key pro‐apoptotic proteins in the Fas/FasL pathway. After overexpression of ACSS2 or AATF, immunoblotting was performed using FADD, cleaved caspase‐8, and cleaved caspase‐3 antibodies with β‐actin as upload control in BON‐1 (G) and QGP‐1 (H) cell lines, respectively.
