Kalirin-RAC controls nucleokinetic migration in ADRN-type neuroblastoma

ABSTRACT: The migrational propensity of neuroblastoma is affected by cell identity, but the mechanisms behind the divergence remain unknown. Using RNAi and time-lapse imaging, we show that ADRN-type NB cells exhibit RAC1- and kalirin-dependent nucleokinetic (NUC) migration that relies on several integral components of neuronal migration. Inhibition of NUC migration by RAC1 and kalirin-GEF1 inhibitors occurs without hampering cell proliferation and ADRN identity. Using three clinically-relevant expression dichotomies, we reveal that most of up-regulated mRNAs in RAC1- and kalirin-GEF1-suppressed ADRN-type NB cells are associated with low-risk characteristics. The computational analysis shows that, in a context of overall gene set poverty, the upregulomes in RAC1- and kalirin-GEF1-suppressed ADRN-type cells are a batch of AU-rich elements (ARE)-containing mRNAs, which suggests a link between NUC migration and mRNA stability. GSEA-based search for vulnerabilities reveals prospective weak points in RAC1- and kalirin-GEF1-suppressed ADRN-type NB cells, including activities of H3K27- and DNA methyltransferases. Altogether, these data support the introduction of NUC inhibitors into cancer treatment research.

Interaction between tumor cell TNFR2 and monocyte membrane-bound TNFα triggers tumorigenic inflammation in neuroblastoma

Project description:We found that NB expression of TNFR2 and monocyte mTNFα are required for monocyte activation and IL-6 production, while NB TNFR1 and monocyte sTNFα are required for NB NF-κB activation. Treatment of NB-monocyte co-cultures with clinical-grade etanercept completely abrogated release of IL-6, G-CSF, IL-1α, and IL-1β and eliminated monocyte-induced enhancement of NB cell proliferation in vitro. Furthermore, etanercept treatment inhibited tumor growth, ablated tumor angiogenesis, and suppressed oncogenic signaling in mice with subcutaneous NB/human monocyte xenografts. Finally, GSEA revealed significant enrichment for TNFα signaling in NB patients that relapsed.

Chromatin status under knock-down of SNHG1 in neuroblastoma [ChIP-seq]

Project description:The small nucleolar RNA host gene 1 (SNHG1) is a novel oncogenic long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) aberrantly expressed in different tumor types. We previously found highly expressed SNHG1 was associated with poor prognosis and MYCN status in neuroblastoma (NB). However, the molecular mechanisms of SNHG1 in NB are still unclear. Here, we disrupted endogenous SNHG1 in the MYCN-amplified NB cell line SK-N-BE(2)C using the CRISPR/Cas9 system, and demonstrated the proliferation and colony formation ability of SNHG1-knowndown cells were suppressed. The transcriptome analysis and function assays of SNHG1-knockdown cells revealed SNHG1 was involved in various biological processes including cell growth, migration, apoptosis, cell cycle, and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Interestingly, the expression of core regulatory circuitry (CRC) transcription factors in MYCN-amplified NB, including PHOX2B, HAND2, GATA3, ISL1, TBX1, and MYCN, were decreased in SNHG1-knockdown cells. The chromatin-immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) and transposase-accessible chromatin using sequencing (ATAC-seq) analyses show that chromatin status of these CRC members is altered, which may stem from interactions between SNHG1 and HDAC1/2. These findings demonstrate that SNHG1 plays a crucial role in maintaining NB identity via chromatin regulation and reveal the function of the lncRNA SNHG1 in NB.

A Nanobody inhibitor of Fascin-1 actin-bundling activity and filopodia formation

Project description:Fascin-1 mediated actin-bundling activity is central to the generation of plasma membrane protrusions required for cell migration. Dysregulation of cellular protrusions is observed in metastatic cancers, where they are required for increased invasiveness, and this is often correlated with overexpression of Fascin-1. Therefore, there is interest in generating therapeutic Fascin-1 inhibitors. We present the identification of Nb 3E11, a nanobody inhibitor of Fascin-1 actin-bundling activity, filopodia formation and cell migration. The crystal structure of the Fascin-1/Nb 3E11 complex reveals the structural mechanism of inhibition. Nb 3E11 occludes an actin-binding site on the third -trefoil domain of Fascin-1 that is currently untargeted by chemical inhibitors and induces a conformational change in the adjacent domains to stabilise Fascin-1 in an inhibitory state similar to that adopted in the presence of small molecule inhibitors. Nb 3E11 can be utilised as a tool inhibitor molecule to aid in the development of Fascin-1 targeted therapeutics.

PRC2 molecule EED is a target of epigenetic therapy of neuroblastoma

Project description:Epigenetic modification by polycomb repressive complex (PRC) molecules appears to have a role in tumorigenesis and aggressiveness of neuroblastoma (NB). Embryonic Ectoderm Development (EED) is a member of PRC2 complex and binds the H3K27me3 mark deposited by EZH2, via propagation on adjacent nucleosomes. Here we studied the molecular roles of EED in MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma cells by using EED-knocked down shRNAs, EED-knocked out sgRNAs, and EED small molecule inhibitor EED226. EED suppression profoundly inhibited the NB cell proliferation and flat-and soft agar colony formation. Transcriptome analysis by microarray of the EED-KD NB cells indicated the de-repression of the cell cycle regulated and differentiation-related genes; GSEA analysis results suggested that cell cycle repressed gene sets were strongly upregulated. Further, epigenetic treatment by the combination of EED inhibitor EED226 and HDAC inhibitor valproic acid effectively suppressed NB cell proliferation and colony formation. The combinatory epigenetic treatment up-regulated the cell cycle regulation- and differentiation-related genes.

Transcriptomic analysis of neuroblastoma cells in response to stable over-expression of small peptide encoded by hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 alpha antisense RNA 1 (HNF4A-AS1)

Project description:Neuroblastoma (NB), a malignant embryonic tumor arising from primitive neural crest cells, accounts for more than 7% of malignancies and around 15% of cancer-related mortality in childhood. Better elucidating the mechanisms of tumorigenesis and aggressiveness is important for improving the therapeutic efficiencies of NB. We identified a small 51-amino acid peptide (sPEP1) encoded by hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 alpha antisense RNA 1 (HNF4A-AS1) in NB cells treated by serum deprivation. To investigate the mechanisms underlying the oncogenic functions of sPEP1, we employed the Illumina HiSeq X Ten as a discovery platform to analyze the transcriptome profiling changes of human SH-SY5Y cells in response to stable over-expression of sPEP1. The results showed that stable over-expression of sPEP1 led to altered expression of 2543 human mRNAs, including 2457 up-regulated genes and 86 down-regulated genes. Then we found the possible roles of these differentially regulated mRNAs in selected pathways including stemness, senescence, invasion, and metastasis by Bioinformatic analysis. Furthermore, we validated the RNA-seq results by real-time RT-PCR with high identity. Overall, our results provided fundamental information about the transcriptomic changes in response to sPEP1 over-expression in human NB cells, and these findings will help us understand the pathogenesis of NB.

Project description:Neuroblastoma (NB), a malignant embryonic tumor arising from primitive neural crest cells, accounts for more than 7% of malignancies and around 15% of cancer-related mortality in childhood. Better elucidating the mechanisms of tumorigenesis and aggressiveness is important for improving the therapeutic efficiencies of NB.
