Transcriptional response to serum stimulation of Rat1 fibroblasts in the presence or absence of the Myc interfering molecule termed Omomyc.

ABSTRACT: Myc is a multifaceted bHLHZip transcription factor deregulated in the majority of human cancers. How to target Myc for cancer therapy is unclear, given its involvement in a variety of key functions in healthy cells. We used microarrays to capture the cellular transcriptional response to Omomyc – a Myc interfering molecule acting at the level of protein protein interactions that demonstrated a remarkable therapeutic efficacy in transgenic mouse cancer models. We found that Omomyc differently affects Myc induced gene repression and activation, channelling the Myc interactome activity to repression. To determine whether Omomyc causes widespread changes of the cell transcriptome, we analysed the transcriptional response to serum stimulation of Rat1 fibroblasts stably infected with an Omomer – Omomyc fused to the tamoxifen inducible oestrogen receptor ERTM – producing retrovirus (Rat1_Omomer) as compared to Rat1 cells infected with a control virus (Rat1_Control). Endogenous c-Myc is known to be sharply induced by serum and is critical for cell cycle re-entry. Cells were grown, serum-starved for 48 h in presence of tamoxifen (4-OHT) and stimulated by addition of fresh serum. Total RNA was collected from Rat1_Control and Rat1-Omomer cells at the time of serum re-addition (T0) and 90' thereafter (T90'), in the presence of tamoxifen.

Adenovirus E1A oncogene induces re-replication of cellular DNA and alters DNA replication dynamics

Project description:Human adenovirus type 5 oncogene E1A was shown to induce massive re-replication of cellular DNA in late S phase. Using DNA combing analysis, it was shown that DNA replication dynamics including replicon length, fork velocity and inter-origin distance were dramatically altered in E1A expressing cells as compared to that of normal serum stimulated cells. It was also shown that c-Myc that is induced in E1A expressing cells is essential for the efficient entry of E1A expressing cells into S phase. Serum starved cells were infected with an adenovirus expressing only the transforming E1A protein, and with Adbeta-galactosidase (control) were analyzed by flow cytomery. DNA prepared from such cells were analyzed by DNA combing analysis and data obtained were examined statistically. Requirement of Myc in E1A induced S phase entry was also examined by using antisense Myc vector.

Gene Expression Profiles of MYC+ and MYC- mouse Germinal Center B cells

Project description:Germinal centers (GC) arise within B cell follicles upon antigenic challenge. In the dark zones (DZ) of GCs, B cells proliferate and hypermutate their immunoglobulin genes, and mutants with increased affinity are positively selected in the light zone (LZ) to either differentiate into plasma and memory cells, or re-enter the DZ for further refinement. However, the molecular circuits governing GC positive selection are not known. Here, we show that the GC reaction requires the biphasic regulation of c-MYC expression, involving its transient induction during early GC commitment, its repression by BCL6 in DZ B cells, and its re-induction in a subpopulation of positively selected LZ B cells destined to DZ re-entry. Accordingly, acute disruption of MYC function in vivo leads to GC collapse, indicating an essential role in GC physiology. These results have implications for our understanding of GC selection and the role of MYC deregulation in B cell lymphomas. We used microarrays to determine the global gene expression programs that distinguish MYC+ GC B cells from their MYC- negative counterparts. GFPMYC+ and GFPMYC- GC B cell subpopulations were collected by Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting (FACS) from B cell enriched fractions of splenic mononuclear cell pools of GFPMYC knock-in mice (12 days after SRBC immunization). 5-20ng of total RNA (RIN>9) for each sample was used as a template for linear cDNA amplification (Ovation RNA amplification Kit, NuGen). cDNA was labeled using the Encore Biotin Labeling Kit (NuGen) and hybridized to Affymetrix Mouse 430.2 gene expression arrays.

Screening of genes activated by phsiological E2F induced by gorwth stimulation

Project description:To identify genes activated by physiological E2F, we examined gene expression profiles using human normal fibroblasts (HFFs), which were starved of serum and re-stimulated with serum. To identify genes activated by growth stimulation, human normal fibroblasts (HFFs) were starved of serum for 48 hr, re-stimulated with serum or left serum-starved for 18 hr, and harvested. Gene expression profiles of each sample were examined by DNA microarray.

Telomerase subunit TERT regulates MYC stability independent of its role on telomeres (ChIP-Seq)

Project description:Constitutively active MYC and reactivated telomerase often co-exist in cancers. While the reactivation of telomerase is thought to be essential for replicative immortality, MYC, in conjunction with co-factors, confers several growth advantages to cancer cells. However, it is unclear which co-factors sustain elevated MYC activity in tumours . Here, we identify TERT, the catalytic subunit of telomerase, as a novel regulator of MYC stability in cancers. Binding of TERT to MYC stabilizes its levels on chromatin, contributing to either activation or repression of its target genes. Mechanistically, TERT regulates MYC ubiquitination and stability, and this effect of TERT is independent of its role on telomeres. Genetic inhibition and knocking out of TERT phenocopied the loss of MYC, resulting in reduced disease burden of early- and late-stage MYC-driven murine lymphomas. Conversly, the ectopic expression of TERT could substitute for reduced MYC in these functions. Finally we show that TERT null mice, unlike Terc null mice, show delayed onset of MYC induced lymphomagenesis. Accordingly, inhibiting TERT function in primary human leukemia cells blocked the expression of MYC targets, while Terc depletion had no effects . Based on our data, we conclude that the re-expression of TERT, a direct MYC target in tumors, provides a feed-forward mechanism to potentiate MYC-dependent oncogenesis. ChIP was performed using anti-MYC (sc-764) in primary lymphoma cells from Eµ-Myc;Tert -/- mice, Eµ-Myc;Tert +/+ mice, or in P493 cells treated with shTert, P493 shTerc and shControl.

MYC-ER and MYC-ER V394D induced gene expression changes in MCF10A cells

Project description:Oncogenic levels of Myc expression sensitize cells to multiple apoptotic stimuli and this protects long-lived organisms from cancer development. How cells discriminate physiological from supra-physiological levels of Myc is largely unknown. Here we show that induction of apoptosis by Myc in breast epithelial cells requires association of Myc with Miz1. Gene expression and ChIP-sequencing experiments show that oncogenic levels of Myc, but not of MycV394D, a point mutant that does not bind Miz1, recruit Miz1 to core promoters and enable binding of Myc/Miz1 complexes to low-affinity target sites, correlating with repression of a specific set of target genes. Repressed genes encode proteins involved in cell adhesion, migration and wound healing; their promoters are enriched for binding sites of the serum response (SRF) factor. Restoring SRF activity attenuates Myc-induced apoptosis in response to glutamine starvation, exposure to Trail and to DNA damage. We propose that supra-physiological levels of Myc engage Miz1 in repressive DNA binding complexes and suppress transcriptional progr 4 different experimental conditions were analyzed: MYC-ER 4-OHT treated versus MYC-ER ctr-treated (EtOH), MYC-ER V394D 4-OHT treated versus MYC-ER V394D ctr-treated; 3 biological replicates for every condition.

Expression data from miR-92 over-expressing R26MER/MER mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEFs)

Project description:miR-92 enhances c-Myc induced apoptosis. In the R26MER/MER mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs), a switchable variant of Myc, MycERT2, was knocked into the genomic region downstream of the constitutive Rosa26 promoter, allowing acute activation of c-Myc by 4-OHT-induced nuclear translocation. This in vitro system nicely recapitulates c-Myc-induced apoptosis, as activated MycERT2 induces strong p53-dependent apoptosis in response to serum starvation. Enforced miR-92 expression in three independent R26MER/MER MEF lines significantly enhanced Myc-induced apoptosis. We used microarrays to investigate the molecular mechanism underlying miR-92 functions. Three independent R26MER/MER MEF lines were infected by MSCV vector alone or by MSCV vector encoding miR-92. These MEFs were serum starved and 4-OHT treated to trigger strong Myc-induced apoptosis.
