Project description:We have identified the histone methyltransferases G9a/Glp as suppressors of aggressive lung tumor-propagating cells (TPCs). Chemically inhibiting G9a/Glp promoted TPC phenotypes in lung adenocarcinoma cells, and caused chromatin changes at genes associated with the differentiation of stem cells. G9a/Glp inhibition in lung progenitor cell organoid cultures disrupted alveolar differentiation. Depleting G9a during tumorigenesis enriched for TPCs, accelerating disease progression and metastasis. Demethylase inhibition decreased lung adenocarcinoma progression in vivo.

Project description:Sustained tumor progression has been attributed to a distinct population of tumor-propagating cells (TPCs). To identify TPCs relevant to lung cancer pathogenesis, we investigated functional heterogeneity in tumor cells isolated from Kras-driven mouse models of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). CD24+ITGB4+Notchhi cells are capable of propagating tumor growth in both a clonogenic and an orthotopic serial transplantation assay. While all four Notch receptors mark TPCs, Notch3 plays a non-redundant role in tumor cell propagation in two mouse model and in human NSCLC. The TPC population is enriched after chemotherapy and the gene signature of mouse TPCs correlates with poor prognosis in human NSCLC. The unique role of Notch3 in tumor propagation may provide a therapeutic target for NSCLC Primary lung adenocarcinoma tumor cells were FACS sorted based on expression of CD24, ITGB4 and Notch. TPC cells are defined by Cd24+ITGB4+ Notch(high), and the remainder tumor cells are non-TPC cells. Samples were derived from six mice.

Project description:We use ChIP-Seq and RNA-Seq technology to profile the H3K9me2 modification and transcription under different conditions of GLP activity. GLP and G9a are major H3K9 dimethylases, and are essential for mouse early embryonic development. Here we report that GLP and G9a possess intrinsic histone methylation propagating activities. The histone methyltransferase activities of GLP and G9a are stimulated by neighboring nucleosomes pre-methylated at H3K9. These stimulation events function in cis and are dependent on H3K9 methylation binding activities of ankyrin repeats domains in GLP and G9a. In mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) harboring a mutant GLP lacking H3K9 methylation propagating activity, pluripotent genes display a delayed kinetics in establishing H3K9 methylation and gene silencing during differentiation. Disruption of the H3K9 methylation propagating activity of GLP in mice causes growth retardation of the embryos, ossification defects of calvaria and early postnatal lethality. We propose that GLP¡¯s ability to rapidly propagate H3K9 methylation is required for efficient gene silencing during programmed cell fate transition. H3K9me2 and H3K9me1 are ChIPped and sequenced in WT mESC and GLP-mutant mESCs, and RNA-Seq was done for those cells as well.

Project description:Developmental fate decisions are dictated by master transcription factors (TFs) that interact with cis-regulatory elements to direct transcriptional programs. Certain malignant tumors may also depend on a cellular hierarchy reminiscent of normal development but superimposed on underlying genetic aberrations. In glioblastoma (GBM), a subset of stem-like tumor- propagating cells (TPCs) appears to drive tumor progression and underlie therapeutic resistance, yet remain poorly understood. Here, we identify a core set of neurodevelopmental TFs (POU3F2, SOX2, SALL2, OLIG2) essential for GBM propagation. These TFs coordinately bind and activate TPC-specific regulatory elements, and are sufficient to fully reprogram differentiated GBM cells to ‘induced’ TPCs that recapitulate the epigenetic landscape and phenotype of native TPCs. We reconstruct a TF network model that highlights critical interactions and identifies novel therapeutic targets for eliminating TPCs. Our study establishes the epigenetic basis of a developmental hierarchy in a devastating malignancy, provides detailed insight into the underlying gene regulatory programs, and suggests attendant therapeutic strategies. 3'end RNA sequencing
