E5 human papillomavirus type 16 oncoprotein modify ST3GAL3 and ST6GAL1 gene expression

ABSTRACT: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the etiological agent of cervical cancer. Three viral proteins, E5, E6 and E7 have been implicated in cell transformation. Increased expression of sialic acid and sialylated antigens have been reported during cervix transformation, these results agree with the increased mRNA levels of the sialyltransferases genes ST6GAL1 and ST3GAL3 reported in premalignant and malignant tissue of the cervix. E6 and E7 HPV oncoproteins modify the expression of some glycogenes. The role of E5 HPV oncoprotein in the glycogene expression changes in premalignant and malignant cervical tissue has not been reported. The objective of this work was to identify glycogenes that modify their expression by E5 HPV oncoprotein in HaCaT cell line. A gene expression microarray was performed on HaCaT cells that stably expressed the HPV16 E5 oncogene. Analysis revealed alteration in some glycogenes including upregulation of ST6GAL1 and ST3GAL3. The increased mRNA levels of both genes were confirmed by qRT-PCR. In addition, an in-silico analysis was performed to identify glycosylation networks altered in presence of E5 oncoprotein. The analysis showed that E5 could modify the sialic acid expression, keratan sulfate synthesis, N-glycosylation and biosynthesis of glycosaminoglycans. This is the first report of the role of HPV16 E5 oncoprotein on glycogenes expression changes. Moreover, our results suggest that the increase of the sialyltransferases genes reported in premalignant and malignant cervical tissue, could be the result of the expression of E5 oncoprotein. These results provide information of the possible role of HPV infection on the sialylation changes in the cervical epithelium identified in premalignant lesions and cancer.

Project description:Sialic acids on vertebrate cell surfaces mediate many biological roles. Altered expression of certain sialic acid types or their linkages can have prognostic significance in human cancer. A classic but unexplained example is enhanced Î±2-6-sialylation on N-glycans, resulting from over-expression of the Golgi enzyme Î²-galactoside:Î±2-6-sialyltransferase (ST6Gal-I). Previous data supporting a role for the resulting SiaÎ±2-3GalÎ²1-4GlcNAc (Sia6LacNAc) structure in tumor biology were based on in vitro studies in transfected carcinoma cells, in which increased Sia6LacNAc on Î²1-integrins enhanced their binding to ligands, and stimulated cell motility. Here we examine for the first time the in vivo role of the ST6Gal-I enzyme in the growth and differentiation of spontaneous mammary cancers in mice transgenic for an MMTV-promoter-driven polyoma-middle-T antigen, a tumor in which beta1-integrin function is important for tumorigenesis, and in maintaining the proliferative state of tumor cells. Tumors induced in St6gal1 null animals were more differentiated in comparison to those in the wild-type background, both by histological analysis and by protein expression profiles. Furthermore, we show the St6gal1 null tumors have selectively altered expression of genes associated with focal adhesion signaling, and have decreased phosphorylation of FAK, a downstream target of Î²1-integrins. This first in vivo evidence for a role of ST6Gal-I in tumor progression was confirmed using a novel approach, which conditionally restored St6gal1 in cell lines derived from the null tumors. These findings indicate a role for ST6Gal-I as a mediator of tumor progression, with its expression causing a less differentiated phenotype, via enhanced Î²1-integrin function. Experiment Overall Design: Messenger RNA from tumors arising in wild-type or St6gal1 null littermates was used for the gene expression analysis on the Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (Affymetrix). Six PyV-mT St6gal1 null and wild-type tumor pairs were used, in four independent pools of three tumors each. Each sample is a pool of three different tumors from three different animals. For the first set of microarray analysis samples GSM239969 and GSM239970 were being compared, and in the second set, samples GSM239971 and GSM239972 were compared.

Project description:Dysregulation of glyco-gene expression in cancer can lead to aberrant glycans and glycoconjugates, which in turn can promote tumorigenesis. Cervical cancer display augmentation of aberrant sialylated glycans and increase of glyco-genes, which encoded enzymes participate in the sialylation pathways. Besides sialiltranferases, other glyco-genes, analyzed individually are reported as altered in cervical cancer. Here we show a comprehensive analysis of glyco-gene expression in cervical cancer to obtain a wide scenery of global changes in glycosylation pathways. First, we compared glyco-gene expression between normal tissue and cervical cancer. Second, we analyzed the glycogene expression in subtypes of cc to obtain hallmarks of glyco-gene expression in each case. Our results indicate that in cervical cancer the GPI-anchored biosynthesis is increased in cc while the synthesis of chondroitin and dermatan sulfate are decreased. Moreover, data show that adenocarcinoma displayed a homogenous glyco-gene expression pattern, where chondroitin /dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate glycogenes are decreased, while keratan sulfate genes are increased.
