Modeling Familial Cancer with iPSC Approaches

ABSTRACT: In vitro modeling of human disease has recently become feasible with the adoption of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology. Here, we established patient-derived iPSCs from an Li-Fraumeni Syndrome (LFS) family and investigated the role of mutant p53 in the development of osteosarcoma (OS). Several members of this family carried a heterozygous p53(G245D) mutation and presented with a broad spectrum of tumors including OS. Osteoblasts (OBs) differentiated from iPSC-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) recapitulated OS features including defective osteoblastic differentiation (OB differentiation) as well as tumorigenic ability. Systematic analyses revealed that the expression of genes enriched in LFS-derived OBs strongly correlated with decreased time to tumor recurrence and poor patient survival. In silico cytogenetic region enrichment analysis (CREA) demonstrated that LFS-derived OBs do not have genomic rearrangements and hence are a particularly valuable tool for elucidating early oncogenic events prior to the accumulation of secondary alterations. LFS OBs exhibited impaired upregulation of the imprinted gene H19 during osteogenesis. Restoration of H19 expression in LFS OBs facilitated osteogenic differentiation and repressed tumorigenic potential. By integrating human imprinted gene network (IGN) and functional genomic analyses, we found that H19-mediates suppression of LFS-associated OS through the IGN component DECORIN (DCN). Downregulation of DCN impairs H19-mediated osteogenic differentiation and tumor suppression. In summary, these findings demonstrate the feasibility of studying inherited human cancer syndromes with iPSCs and also provide molecular insights into the role of the IGN in p53 mutation-mediated tumorigenesis. mRNAseq profiling during mesenchymal stem cell differentiation to osteoblasts.

Project description:Dramatic changes of gene expressions are known to occur in human endometrial stromal cells (ESC) during decidualization. The changes in gene expression are associated with changes of chromatin structure, which are regulated by epigenetic mechanisms such as histone modifications. Here, we investigated genome-wide changes in histone modifications and mRNA expressions associated with decidualization in human ESC using chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) combined with next-generation sequencing. ESC were incubated with estradiol and medroxyprogesterone acetate for 14 days to induce decidualization. The ChIP-sequence data showed that induction of decidualization increased H3K27ac and H3K4me3 signals in many genomic regions but decreased in only a few regions. Most (80%) of the H3K27ac-increased regions and half of the H3K4me3-increased regions were located in the distal promoter regions (more than 3 kb upstream or downstream of the transcription start site). RNA-sequence showed that induction of decidualization up-regulated 881 genes, 223 of which had H3K27ac- or H3K4me3-increased regions in the proximal and distal promoter regions. Induction of decidualization increased the mRNA levels of these genes more than it increased the mRNA levels of genes without H3K27ac- or H3K4me3-increased regions. Pathway analysis revealed that up-regulated genes with the H3K27ac- or H3K4me3-increased regions were associated with insulin signaling. These results show that histone modification statuses genome-widely change in human ESC by induction of decidualization. The main changes of histone modifications are increases of H3K27ac and H3K4me3 in both the proximal and distal promoter regions, which are involved in the up-regulation of gene expression that occurs during decidualization. mRNA profiles of human endometrial stromal cells with and without EP inductions for 2 individuals.
