Inhibition of TAZ contributes radiation-induced senescence and growth arrest in glioma cells

ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive brain tumor and resistant to current available therapeutics, such as radiation. To improve the clinical efficacy, it is important to understand the cellular mechanisms underlying tumor responses to radiation. Here, we investigated long-term cellular responses of human GBM cells to ionizing radiation. Comparing to the initial response within 12 hours, gene expression modulation at 7 days after radiation is markedly different. While genes related to cell cycle arrest and DNA damage responses are mostly modulated at the initial stage; immune-related genes are specifically affected as the long-term effect. This later response is associated with increased cellular senescence and inhibition of transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ). Mechanistically, TAZ inhibition does not depend on the canonical Hippo pathway, but relies on enhanced degradation mediated by the β-catenin destruction complex in the Wnt pathway. We further showed that depletion of TAZ by RNAi promotes radiation-induced senescence and growth arrest. Pharmacological activation of the β-catenin destruction complex is able to promote radiation-induced TAZ inhibition and growth arrest in these tumor cells. The correlation between senescence and reduced expression of YAP as well as β-catenin also occurs in human gliomas treated by radiation. Collectively, these findings suggested that inhibition of TAZ is involved in radiation-induced senescence and might benefit GBM radiotherapy.

Naked mole rat cells are protected from cellular senescence via Wnt/β-catenin-promoted cholesterol metabolism

Project description:The naked mole rat (NMR; Heterocephalus glaber) exhibits cancer resistance and an exceptionally long lifespan of approximately 30 years. The longevity of the NMR is widely debated, as it poses challenges to theories associated with aging, cancer, and redox homeostasis. In the present study, we report unique mechanisms of cholesterol metabolism in NMR cells that could be responsible in part for their anti-senescent properties. We found that NMR fibroblasts abundantly express β-catenin, and that increased β-catenin activity is linked to increased accumulation of cholesterol-enriched lipid droplets. Either β-catenin knockdown or inhibition of cholesterol synthesis abolished lipid droplet formation, and enhanced induction of senescence-like phenotypes. Analysis of β-catenin-regulated genes revealed that β-catenin upregulated the LXR/RXR pathway and Apolipoprotein F, which are involved in cholesterol biogenesis and transport. Specifically, Apolipoprotein F is involved in the accumulation of lipid droplets, protecting NMR cells from cellular senescence. We thus suggest that increased β-catenin activity evolved in NMRs to offset senescence via the accumulation of cholesterol-enriched lipid droplets. Hence, the anti-senescence effects of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling in NMRs reveals new strategies for the development of anti-cancer and anti-aging treatments.

Developmentally programmed tankyrase activity upregulates β-catenin and licenses progression of embryonic genome activation

Project description:Embryonic genome activation (EGA) is orchestrated by an intrinsic developmental program initiated during oocyte maturation with translation of stored maternal mRNAs. Here we show that tankyrase, a poly(ADP-ribosyl) polymerase that regulates β-catenin levels, undergoes programmed translation during oocyte maturation and serves an essential role in mouse EGA. Newly translated TNKS triggers proteasomal degradation of axin, reducing targeted destruction of β-catenin and promoting β-catenin-mediated transcription of target genes, including Myc. MYC mediates ribosomal RNA transcription in 2-cell embryos, supporting global protein synthesis. Suppression of tankyrase activity using knockdown or chemical inhibition causes loss of nuclear β-catenin and global reductions in transcription and histone H3 acetylation. Chromatin and transcriptional profiling indicate that development arrests prior to the mid-2-cell stage, mediated in part by reductions in β-catenin and MYC. These findings indicate that post-transcriptional regulation of tankyrase serves as a ligand-independent developmental mechanism for post-translational β-catenin activation and is required to complete EGA.

NOTCH1 mediates a reciprocal switch between two distinct secretomes during senescence

Project description:Senescence, a persistent form of cell cycle arrest, is often associated with a diverse secretome, which provides complex downstream functionality for senescent cells within the tissue microenvironment. We show that oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) is accompanied by a dynamic fluctuation of NOTCH1 activity, which drives a TGF-β-rich secretome, whilst suppressing the senescence-associated pro-inflammatory secretome through inhibition of C/EBPβ. NOTCH1 and NOTCH1-driven TGF-β contribute to ‘lateral induction of senescence’ through a juxtacrine NOTCH-JAG1 pathway. In addition, NOTCH1 inhibition during senescence facilitates upregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines, promoting lymphocyte recruitment and senescence surveillance in vivo. Because enforced activation of NOTCH1 signalling confers a near mutually exclusive secretory profile compared to typical senescence, our data collectively indicate that the dynamic alteration of NOTCH1 activity during senescence dictates a functional balance between these two distinct secretomes: one representing TGF-β and the other pro-inflammatory cytokines, highlighting that NOTCH1 is a temporospatial controller of secretome composition.

Dysregulation of Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling pathway via RNF146 upregulation in the prefrontal cortex is responsible for social deficit in a VPA-induced ASD mouse model

Project description:Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorder where patients have impaired social behavior, communication, repetitive behaviors, and restricted interest. Valproic acid (VPA) has been widely used to treat patients with epilepsy and bipolar disorder patients. However, VPA treatment during pregnancy has produced offspring with neurodevelopmental disorders, including ASD. To better understand the molecular function of ASD, we have used valproic acid, chemically induced ASD mice. We have performed LC-MS/MS analysis of VPA-induced offspring mice to the control to see the difference in their proteome difference. Our analysis showed that many neuronal network pathways were highly expressed in our differentially expressed proteins, and among them, Wnt/ β-catenin pathways showed clear enrichment. The RNF146 (E3 Ubiquitin-protein ligase) increase in VPA-exposed mice showed a highly significant effect on canonical Wnt/ β-catenin signaling pathways by disrupting the β-catenin destruction complex. The proteins like CREBBP, TCF4, and GSK3B also showed significant changes that indicate dysfunction of β-catenin destruction complex and activation of transcription factors.

Role of TAZ as mediator of Wnt signaling (MII)

Project description:To investigate the role of TAZ downstream of APC and beta-catenin in mammary epithelial cells cells, we compared the expression profiles of MCF10-T1k (MII) cells transfected with siControl, siAPC, siAPC+siTAZ, sibeta-catenin, or sibeta-catenin+siTAZ. Keywords: expression profiling by array We collected RNA from MII cells transfected with siControl, siAPC, siAPC+siTAZ, sibeta-catenin, or sibeta-catenin+siTAZ. Cells were left untreated in normal culturing conditions before harvesting. Samples were then processed for total RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Four biological replicas (A, B, C, D) were used for each of the 5 conditions (1: siControl, control cells; 2: siAPC cells; 3: siAPC+siTAZ cells; 4: sibeta-catenin (sibcat) cells; 5: sibeta-catenin+siTAZ) for a total of 20 samples.

Notch3-dependent beta-catenin signaling mediates EGFR TKI drug persistence in EGFR mutant NSCLC

Project description:EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors cause dramatic responses in EGFR-mutant lung cancer, but resistance universally develops. The involvement of β-catenin in EGFR TKI resistance has been previously reported however the precise mechanism by which β-catenin activation contributes to EGFR TKI resistance is not clear. Here, we show that EGFR inhibition results in the activation of β-catenin signaling in a Notch3-dependent manner, which facilitates the survival of a subset of cells that we call “adaptive persisters”. We previously reported that EGFR-TKI treatment rapidly activates Notch3, and here describe the physical association of Notch3 with β-catenin, leading to increased stability and activation of β-catenin. We demonstrate that the combination of EGFR-TKI and a β-catenin inhibitor inhibits the development of these adaptive persisters, decreases tumor burden, improves recurrence free survival, and overall survival in xenograft models. These results supports combined EGFR-TKI and β-catenin inhibition in patients with EGFR mutant lung cancer.

Wnt/β-catenin signaling mediates resistance of colorectal cancer cells to chemoradiotherapy

Project description:Activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling plays a central role in the development and progression of colorectal cancer (CRC). Previously, we demonstrated that the Wnt transcription factor, TCF7L2, was overexpressed in primary rectal cancers that were resistant to chemoradiotherapy (CRT), and that TCF7L2 functionally mediates resistance of CRC cells to CRT. However, it remained unclear whether the resistance was mediated by a TCF7L2 inherent mechanism or Wnt/β-catenin signaling in general. We now show that silencing of β-catenin resulted in sensitization of the CRC cell lines LS1034, SW480, and SW837 to CRT, demonstrating a relationship between Wnt/β-catenin signaling and CRT resistance. To investigate the potential role of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in controlling therapeutic responsiveness, non-tumorigenic RPE-1 cells were stimulated with Wnt-3a, a physiological ligand at the Frizzled receptor, which significantly increased resistance to CRT. This effect could be recapitulated by overexpression of mutated, undegradable β-catenin (S33Y). Again, this resulted in a significantly boosted resistance of RPE-1 cells to CRT, which was abrogated by siRNA-mediated silencing of β-catenin. Consistent with these findings, we observed higher expression levels of active (unphosphorylated) β-catenin as well as increased TCF/LEF reporter activity in SW1463 cells that evolved radiation-resistance due to repeated radiation-treatment. Global gene expression profiling identified several altered pathways associated with treatment response as a consequence of Wnt/β-catenin pathway activation, sheading new light on PPARD signaling as a possible mechanism of Wnt mediated resistance. Hence, synergistic pathway inhibition of either Wnt and/or one of the downstream-pathways may represent a promising strategy to increase therapeutic responsiveness to CRT.
