Project description:The SV40 large (LT) and small (st) antigens are produced from a single alternatively spliced pre-mRNA, that when co-expressed, transform a variety of cells in vitro and in vivo. However, 17kT, a relatively uncharacterized third protein that is co-linear with LT for the first 131 amino acids, is also produced from the early viral pre-mRNA by removal of an additional intron from the LT transcript. Here we report a line of transgenic mice expressing a liver-specific dox-inducible viral transcript that fails to yield any detectable LT protein, yet produces abundant 17kT. Comparative analysis of livers of transgenic mice expressing either 17kT or LT demonstrates that while 17kT is a potent stimulator of cell proliferation, it is ineffective at inducing liver tumor development, due in part, to the failure of 17kT to effectively induce the expression of growth regulators and reactivate expression of imprinted and developmentally regulated hepatic genes. These studies highlight key functional differences between LT and 17kT in their ability to transform quiescent primary epithelial cells in vivo, and demonstrate how specific functional domains within LT impact cell-specific gene expression to promote oncogenesis. Keywords: genetic modification, SV40, 17kT, LT, Rb, p53, hepatocellular carcinoma, hepatic hyperplasia, differentiation. Affymetrix mouse genome 430 A and B platform was used, single measurements for wild-type and transgenic animals.

Project description:The life cycle of human papillomaviruses (HPV) is strictly linked to the differentiation of their natural host cells. The HPV E6 and E7 oncoproteins can delay the normal differentiation program of keratinocytes, however, the exact mechanisms responsible for this have not yet been identified. The goal of this study was to investigate the effects of HPV16 oncoproteins on the expression of genes involved in keratinocyte differentiation. Primary human keratinocytes transduced by LXSN (control) retroviruses or virus vectors expressing HPV16 E6, E7 or E6/E7 genes were subjected to gene expression profiling. The results of microarray analysis showed that HPV 16 E6 and E7 have the capacity to down-regulate the expression of several genes involved in keratinocyte differentiation. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) assays were performed to confirm microarray data. To investigate the effects of the HPV oncoproteins on the promoters of selected keratinocyte differentiation genes, luciferase reporter assays were performed. Our results suggest that the HPV 16 E6 and/or E7 oncogenes are able to down-regulate the expression of several genes involved in keratinocyte differentiation, at least partially by down-regulating their promoter activity. This activity of the HPV oncoproteins may have a role in the productive virus life cycle, and also in virus induced carcinogenesis. Primary human foreskin keratinocytes were transduced by retrovirus vectors containing HPV 16 E6, E7, E6/E7 or the control vector LXSN. The global gene expression patterns of transduced keratinocytes were analyzed on Affymetrix microarrays

Project description:Ewing sarcomas harbor few mutations beyond the chromosomal translocation that initiates disease and the mechanistic basis for the metastasis of these tumors remains poorly understood. The epigenome of Ewing sarcoma (EWS) cells reflects the regulatory state of genes associated with the DNA binding activity of the fusion oncoproteins EWSR1::FLI1 or EWSR1::ERG. In this study, we examined the repressive activities of the EWSR1::FLI1/ERG fusion oncoproteins. Focusing on one of the repressed EWSR1::FLI1/ERG target genes, ETS1, we detected EWSR1::FLI1 binding and a H3K27me3 repressive mark at this locus. Depletion of EWSR1::FLI1 results in ETS1’s binding of promoter regions, and we show ETS1 regulates the expression of multiple proteins that function in extracellular matrix organization including TENSIN3 (TSN3). Interestingly, TSN3 expression in EWS tumors significantly correlates with that of ETS1 (0.85, FDR <0.01). TNS3 is a focal adhesion protein that contributes to tumor cell migration by connecting the cytoplasmic tail of integrins to the actin cytoskeleton. EWS cell lines, in which we activated ETS1 expression (CRISPRa) exhibited increased TNS3 expression and a migratory phenotype. Critically, the activated ETS1 EWS cell lines show TNS3 accumulation at leading cell edges, with F-actin cytoskeletal reorganization, a phenotype associated with cell migration.
