Regulation of gene expression by FOXC1 in mouse mammary epithelial cells.

ABSTRACT: The FOXC1 transcription factor plays a critical role in basal-like breast cancer development and metastasis. However, it is not clear whether its overexpression alters normal mammary development and mammary cell function in vivo. We used MMTV-FOXC1 transgenic mice to adddress this question. In association with the lobuloalveologenesis and lactation-related phenotype in the transgenic mice, we also found marked gene expression changes in mammary epithelial cells of the transgenic mice compared with wildtype mice at the lactation stage. Differentially expressed genes identified by RNA-Seq analysis include those involved in fatty acid metabolism, PPAR, cytokine, chemokine, inflammation, and NF-κB signaling. These data suggest that FOXC1 is an important regulator of mammary cell function.

Foxc1 and Foxc2 are necessary to maintain glomerular podocytes

Project description:Foxc1 and Foxc2 are highly expressed in adult podocytes. To bypass embryonic lethality of Foxc1 and Foxc2 KO, mice ubiquitously expressing inducible-Cre (ROSA26-CreERT2) were mated with floxed-Foxc1 and floxed-Foxc2 mice. We used microarrays to detail effects of deletions of Foxc1 and Foxc2 on podocyte gene expression profiles in adult podocyte in vivo and in vitro.

Mechanisms associated with systemic effects of cancer

Project description:Cancer is considered as a disease of a specific organ, but its effects are felt throughout the body. The systemic effects of cancer can lead to weakness in muscles and heart, which hastens cancer-associated death. miR-486 is a myogenic microRNA and its reduced expression in skeletal muscle is observed in muscular dystrophy. Muscle-specific transgenic expression of miR-486 using muscle creatine kinase promoter (MCK-miR-486) partially rescues skeletal muscle defects in muscular dystrophy animal models. We had previously demonstrated reduced circulating and skeletal muscle levels of miR-486 in several cancer types and lower miR-486 levels correlated with skeletal muscle defects and functional limitations in mammary tumor models. Therefore, skeletal muscle defects induced by cancer could resemble defects observed in various dystrophies, which could be reversed through skeletal muscle expression of miR-486. We performed functional limitations studies and biochemical analysis of skeletal muscles of MMTV-Neu transgenic mice that mimic HER2+ breast cancer and MMTV-PyMT transgenic mice that mimic luminal subtype B breast cancer and these mice crossed to MCK-miR-486 transgenic mice. miR-486 significantly prevented tumor-induced reduction in muscle contraction force, grip strength, and rotarod performance in MMTV-Neu, but not in MMTV-PyMT mice. In MMTV-Neu model, miR-486 reversed several of the cancer-induced changes in skeletal muscle including loss of p53, phospho-AKT, and phospho-laminin alpha 2 (LAMA2) and gain of phosphorylation of the pre-mRNA processing factor hnRNPA0 and the splicing factor SRSF10. LAMA2 is a part of the dystrophin-associated glycoprotein complex, and its loss-of-function mutation is associated with congenital muscular dystrophy. Thus, similar to muscular dystrophy, miR-486 has the potential to reverse skeletal muscle defects and cancer burden in select cancer types.

Expression data from mammary macrophages isolated from MMTV-iFGFR1 transgenic mice

Project description:The goal of this experiment was to profile macrophages from mammary glands isolated from transgenic mice that express inducible FGFR1 in mammary epithelial cells (MMTV-iFGFR1 transgenic mice). The mice were treated with with dimerizer to activates iFGFR1 for 48 hours and 4 weeks to induce mammary hyperplasias. Control mice included non-transgenic littermates treated with dimerizer for the same amount of time. Macrophages were sorted from mammary glands of MMTV-iFGFR1 transgenic mice and non-transgenic mice following dimerizer treatment using Cd11b-PE. Macrophages from 3 mice were pooled for each sample. RNA was extracted and analyzed using the Affymetrix Mouse 2.0 chip.

Acute expression of cyclin D1 in mouse mammary gland using the tetracycline system

Project description:Analysis of mammary glands from tet-inducible (rtTA) transgenic mice expressing cyclin D1 (Ccnd1). MMTV-rtTA transgenic mice (MMTV-Mouse Mammary Tumor Virus promoter) were cross-mated to cyclin D1 transgenic mice under the control of the tet operon. 8-week-old tetracycline-inducible cyclin D1/rtTA bi-transgenic pregnant female mice (12 days postcoitus) were treated with doxycycline through drinking water supplementation at a final concentration of 2 mg/ml. Control mice were rtTA transgenics alone and were treated in the same manner. After 7 days of doxycycline treatment, the mice were sacrificed and mammary glands taken for RNA isolation. Results provide insight into the in vivo gene expression pattern regulated by cyclin D1 through acute induction. Two separate control mice positive for the MMTV-rtTA transgene were compared to 3 separate cyclin D1/rtTA bi-transgenic female mice.

Loss of Foxc1 and Foxc2 function in chondroprogenitor cells disrupts endochondral ossification.

Project description:Endochondral ossification forms and grows the majority of the mammalian skeleton and is tightly controlled through gene regulatory networks. The forkhead box transcription factors Foxc1 and Foxc2 have been demonstrated to regulate aspects of osteoblast function in the formation of the skeleton but their roles in chondrocytes to control endochondral ossification are less clear. We demonstrate that Foxc1 expression is directly regulated by SOX9 activity, one of the earliest transcription factors to specify the chondrocyte lineages. Moreover we demonstrate that elevelated expression of Foxc1 promotes chondrocyte differentiation in mouse embryonic stem cells and loss of Foxc1 function inhibits chondrogenesis in vitro. Using chondrocyte-targeted deletion of Foxc1 and Foxc2 in mice, we reveal a role for these factors in chondrocyte differentiation in vivo. Loss of both Foxc1 and Foxc2 caused a general skeletal dysplasia predominantly affecting the vertebral column. The long bones of the limb were smaller and mineralization was reduced and organization of the growth plate was disrupted. In particular, the stacked columnar organization of the proliferative chondrocyte layer was reduced in size and cell proliferation in growth plate chondrocytes was reduced. Differential gene expression analysis indicated disrupted expression patterns in chondrogenesis and ossification genes throughout the entire process of endochondral ossification in Col2-cre;Foxc1Δ/Δ;Foxc2Δ/Δ embryos. Our results suggest that Foxc1 and Foxc2 are required for correct chondrocyte differentiation and function. Loss of both genes results in disorganization of the growth plate, reduced chondrocyte proliferation and delays in chondrocyte hypertrophy that prevents correct ossification of the endochondral skeleton.
