Antagonistic BMP–cWNT signaling in the cnidarian Nematostella vectensis reveals insight into the evolution of mesoderm

ABSTRACT: Using forward transcriptomics, we show that beta-catenin/Tcf signaling and BMP2/4 signaling provide differential inputs into the cnidarian endomesodermal gene regulatory network (GRN) at the onset of gastrulation (24 h postfertilization) in N. vectensis. Surprisingly, beta-catenin/Tcf signaling and BMP2/4 signaling regulate a subset of common downstream target genes in the GRN in opposite ways, leading to the spatial and temporal differentiation of fields of cells in the developing embryo. Thus, we show that regulatory interactions between beta-catenin/Tcf signaling and BMP2/4 signaling are required for the specification and determination of different embryonic regions and the patterning of the oral?aboral axis in Nematostella.

Environmental and molecular regulation of asexual reproduction in the cnidarian Nematostella vectensis

Project description:We demonstrated that the presence of substrate is effectively required for transverse fission, that animal size does not affect fission rates, and that the position of physal pinching is fixed along the oral-aboral axis of the polyp. Gene expression analyses revealed a role for putative homeobox transcription factors, and components of TGFβ, Notch, and FGF signaling pathways in the transverse fission process.

Transcription profiling of human hepatocellular carincoma-derived cell line Huh7-S33Y with high TCF activity compared to a control Huh7 cell line

Project description:The Wnt signaling pathway is involved in many differentiation events during embryonic development and can lead to tumor formation after aberrant activation of its components. Β-catenin, a cytoplasmic component, plays a major role in the transduction of the canonical wnt/ β-catenin signaling. The aim of this study was to identify novel genes that are regulated by active β-catenin/TCF signaling in hepatocellular carcinoma. We selected and expanded isogenic clones from hepatocellular carcinoma-derived Huh7 cells with high and low β-catenin/TCF activities. We showed that, high TCF activity Huh7 cells lead to bigger and more aggressive tumors when xenografted into nude mice. We used SAGE (Serial Analysis of Gene Expression), genome-wide microarray and in silico promoter analysis in parallel, to compare gene expression between low (basal) and high (transfected) β-catenin/TCF activity clones, those had been xenografted into nude mice. We compared and contrasted SAGE and genome-wide microarray data, in parallel. Finally; after combined analysis, we identified BRI3 and HSF2 as novel targets of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in hepatocellular carcinoma. Experiment Overall Design: High TCF activity Huh7 cell line (Huh7-S33Y) was compared to control Huh7 cell line (Huh7-Vec) by using 10 ug of total RNA isolated from each sample (15 ug of labeled cRNA was hybridized to the arrays). Triplicates are coming from same total RNA extraction.

TCF/LEF dependent and independent regulation of Wnt/beta-catenin transcription

Project description:During canonical Wnt signalling the activity of nuclear beta-catenin is largely mediated by the TCF/LEF family of transcription factors. To challenge this view we used the CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing approach to generate HEK 293T cell clones simultaneously carrying loss-of-function alleles of all four TCF/LEF genes. Exploiting unbiased whole transcriptome sequencing studies, we found that a subset of beta-catenin transcriptional targets did not require TCF/LEF factors for their regulation. Consistent with this finding, we observed in a genome-wide analysis that beta-catenin occupied specific genomic regions in the absence of TCF/LEF. Finally, we revealed the existence of a transcriptional activity of beta-catenin that specifically appears when TCF/LEF factors are absent, and refer to this as beta-catenin-GHOST response. Collectively, this study uncovers a previously neglected modus operandi of beta-catenin that bypasses the TCF/LEF transcription factors.

Cell-line-specific gene expression changes following inactivation of the CTNNB1 gene in human colorectal cancer cell lines

Project description:Unrestrained transcriptional activity of β-CATENIN and its binding partner TCF7L2 frequently underlies colorectal tumor initiation and is considered an obligatory oncogenic driver throughout intestinal carcinogenesis. Yet, the TCF7L2 gene carries inactivating mutations in about 10 % of colorectal tumors and is non-essential in colorectal cancer (CRC) cell lines. To determine whether CRC cells acquire TCF7L2-independence through cancer-specific compensation by other T-cell factor (TCF)/lymphoid enhancer‑binding factor (LEF) family members, or rather lose addiction to β-CATENIN/TCF7L2-driven gene expression altogether, we generated multiple CRC cell lines entirely negative for TCF/LEF or β-CATENIN expression. Viability of these cells demonstrates complete β‑CATENIN- and TCF/LEF-independence, albeit one β-CATENIN-deficient cell line eventually became senescent. Absence of TCF/LEF proteins and β-CATENIN consistently impaired CRC cell proliferation, reminiscent of mitogenic effects of WNT/β-CATENIN signaling in the healthy intestine. Despite this common phenotype, β-CATENIN-deficient cells exhibited highly cell-line-specific gene expression changes with little overlap between β-CATENIN- and TCF7L2-dependent transcriptomes. Apparently, β‑CATENIN and TCF7L2 control sizeable fractions of their target genes independently from each other. The observed divergence of β-CATENIN and TCF7L2 transcriptional programs, and the finding that neither β-CATENIN nor TCF/LEF activity is strictly required for CRC cell survival has important implications when evaluating these factors as potential drug targets.

Expression data from Thymocytes of WT, TCF-1-deficient and β-catenin transgenic mice

Project description:Both TCF-1 and its coactivator β-catenin are known to be required for supporting normal double positive (DP) thymocyte survival through upregulating Bcl-xL. However, the downstream factors mediating this effect remained unknown. We used microarray to compare the global expression difference among WT, TCF-1-deficient, and β-catenin transgenic thymocytes to search for the genes that are down-regulated and up-regulated in TCF-1-deficient and β-catenin transgenic thymocytes, respectively. We focus on the genes that are significantly down-regulated and up-regulated in TCF-1-deficient and β-catenin transgenic thymocytes, respectively, to select for those genes that are potential target genes of β-catenin/TCF-1 pathway. And then those genes are subject to IPA pathway analysis searching for genes that are involved in thymocyte development and cell death.

BC ChIP-on-chip in SW480, array A

Project description:Dysregulation of Wnt signaling is involved in carcinogenesis, mainly through activation of beta-catenin/TCF target genes. Although aberrant activation of several Wnt target genes, including CCND1 and MYC, has been reported as promoting proliferation of cancer cells, it is hardly enough to understand malignant phenotypes of cancer cells with aberrant Wnt signaling. To elucidate the transcriptional regulation of beta-catenin/TCF target genes, we examined binding of beta-catenin (BC) to DNA by chromatin immunoprecipitation linked to genome tiling array (ChIP-on-chip).
