H3K9me3, H3K27me3, H3K27ac and H3K4me3 ChIP-sequencing in SUM159PT NNMT-WT, NNMT-KOd and NNMT KOs breast cancer cells.

ABSTRACT: The cellular heterogeneity within a tumor can be determined by core genetic and epigenetic programs that operate in certain cells (tumor initiating cells – TICs), providing them with the degree of plasticity needed for induction of metastasis and resistance to therapy. Here we show that the metabolic enzyme nicotinamide N-methyl transferase (NNMT) promotes TIC plasticity in Estrogen Receptor (ER) alpha negative breast cancer. NNMT downregulation delays tumor formation and its full depletion impairs metastasis formation in mice. Mechanistically, NNMT loss increases deposition of H3K9-me2/3 and H3K27-me3 at the promoter of genes involved in stem cell regulation, shutting down their expression and upregulating luminal differentiation genes. This study reveals a major function of NNMT in maintaining core epigenetic programmes that promote TIC self-renewal and metastasis and that repress luminal differentiation.

NNMT downregulation delays tumor formation and its full depletion impairs metastasis formation in mice. At the transcriptomic level, NNMT loss results in dowregulation of stem cell and mesenchymal gene signatures, and in the upregulation of luminal features and oxidative metabolism related genes.

RNA sequencing of NNMT overexpression in 3T3 fibroblasts

Project description:High grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) arising from either the fallopian tube or ovary has a poor prognosis primarily due to its early dissemination throughout the abdominal cavity. Genomic and proteomic approaches have provided snapshots of the proteogenomics of ovarian cancer (OvCa)1,2, but a systematic examination of both the tumor and stromal compartments is critical to understanding OvCa metastasis. We developed a label-free proteomic workflow to analyze as few as 5,000 formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded cells microdissected from each compartment. The tumor proteome was comparatively stable during progression from in situ lesions to metastatic disease; however, the metastasis-associated stroma was characterized by a highly conserved proteomic signature, prominently including the methyltransferase nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) and the proteins it regulates. Stromal NNMT expression was necessary and sufficient for several functional aspects of the cancer associated fibroblast (CAF) phenotype, including the expression of CAF markers and the secretion of cytokines and oncogenic extracellular matrix. Stromal NNMT supported OvCa migration, proliferation, and in vivo growth and metastasis. Expression of NNMT in CAFs led to a depletion of S-adenosyl methionine (SAM) and a reduction in histone methylation associated with extensive gene expression changes in the tumor stroma. This work supports the use of ultra-low input proteomics to identify candidate drivers of disease phenotypes and reveals that NNMT is a central, metabolic regulator of CAF differentiation and cancer progression in the stroma and a novel treatment target.

Proteomics reveals NNMT as a master metabolic regulator of cancer associated fibroblasts

This work supports the use of ultra-low-input proteomics to identify candidate drivers of disease phenotypes. NNMT is a central, metabolic regulator of CAF differentiation and cancer progression in the stroma that may be therapeutically targeted.

Microarray analysis of NNMT overexpression and knockdown in stromal cells

Project description:Analysis of gene expression in human CAFs with control (shCtrl) or shRNA against NNMT (shNNMT) expression or normal fibroblasts expressing control (Ctrl) or NNMT overexpression (NNMT) constructs. Cells were infected with lentivirus to express the indicated shRNA construct. Hypothesis is that knockdown of NNMT will affect expression of genes via regulation of histone methylation status.

Genome-wide maps of chromatin binding of FOXD3

Project description:The tumor-initiating cells (TIC) are cell population that can initiate tumor, mediate drug resistance, and give rise to metastasis. FOXD3 is a forkhead box (Fox) transcription factor family that regulates the pluripotency of embryonic stem cell and tumorigenicity. However, it is unclear whether FOXD3 play any role in TIC and tumor metastasis. Here, we report that FOXD3 is down-regulated in tumor initiating cells and negatively correlated with higher histologic grades and positive lymph node metastasis. FOXD3 repress TIC expansion, cell migration, drug resistance and osteogenesis in vitro and in vivo. Mechanically, we found that FOXD3 repress a cohort of genes including SET and WDR5 and to regulate several TIC related signaling pathway. Moreover, SET and WDR5 was positively correlated with the CSC abundance and tumor progression. Besides, patients with high expression of SET and WDR5 presented a poorer overall survival. Collectively, our work defined that FOXD3-WDR5-SET axis that repress TIC accumulation and lung cancer progression.

Project description:Genome-wide DNA methylation profiling in response to overexpression or knockdown of NNMT in stromal cells. The Illumina MethylationEPIC array was used to profiled genome-wide methylation of normal fibroblasts expressing a control construct or NNMT overexpression construt and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) expressing an shCtrl or shNNMT construct. Two biological replicates of each experimental group were profiled following growth in 10 micromolar methionine growth media for 21 days.
