Intragenic recruitment of NF-kB drives splicing modifications upon activation by the oncogene Tax of HTLV-1

ABSTRACT: Chronic NF-kB activation in inflammation and cancer has long been linked to persistent activation of NF-kB–responsive gene promoters. However, NF-kB factors also massively bind to gene bodies. Here, we demonstrate that recruitment of the NF-kB factor RELA to intragenic regions regulates alternative splicing upon NF-kB activation by the viral oncogene Tax of HTLV-1. Integrative analyses of RNA splicing and chromatin occupancy, combined with chromatin tethering assays, demonstrate that DNA-bound RELA interacts with and recruits the splicing regulator DDX17, in an NF-kB activation–dependent manner. This leads to alternative splicing of target exons due to the RNA helicase activity of DDX17. Similar results were obtained upon Tax-independent NF-kB activation, indicating that Tax likely exacerbates a physiological process where RELA provides splice target specificity. Collectively, our results demonstrate a physical and direct involvement of NF-kB in alternative splicing regulation, which significantly revisits our knowledge of HTLV-1 pathogenesis and other NF-kB–related diseases.

Gene-to-gene coordinated regulation of transcription and alternative splicing by 3D chromatin remodeling upon NF-κB activation

Project description:The p65/RelA factor of NF-κB plays a pivotal role in coordinating gene expression in response to diverse stimuli, including viral infections. At the chromatin level, p65/RelA governs gene transcription and alternative splicing (AS) through promoter enrichment and genomic exon occupancy, respectively. However, the mechanisms underlying the coordination of these processes remain elusive. In this study, we employed the HTLV-1 Tax viral oncoprotein, a potent activator of NF-κB, to investigate the integrative relationship between 3D chromatin architecture and NF-κB-regulated AS. Our analysis revealed that Tax induces a significant reorganization of the 3D genome, resulting in the formation of multigene complexes that comprise genes co-regulated in transcription and in AS. Notably, we found that the Tax-induced gene-gene contact between the two master genes NFKBIA and RELA is associated with their differential regulation in gene expression and alternative splicing, respectively. Through dCas9-mediated approaches, we demonstrated that NFKBIA-RELA interaction is required for alternative splicing regulation and is caused by an intragenic enrichment of p65/RelA on RELA. Via this mechanism, Tax promotes the expression of the splice isoform RELAE6 that exhibits specific gene transactivation capacity at the protein level. Our findings shed light on new regulatory mechanisms upon HTLV-1 Tax and underscore the crucial role of p65/RelA in coordinated regulation of NF-κB-responsive genes at both transcriptional and alternative splicing levels in the context of the 3D genome.

AhmedMobeen2021 - NF-kB Activation Model

Project description:NF-kappaB Activation Model includes the activation of both NFKB1:RELA and NFKB2:RELB for Canonical and Non-Canonical Pathway respectively. The model includes the pathway model integrated with post-translational modifications of NF-kB subunits that regulate the NFKB1:RELA and NFKB2:RELB activity. The processes that are regulated by NF-kB pathway can be monitored through following readouts NFKB1:RELA Activity, NFKB2:RELB Activity, Degraded RelA, Degraded RelB, Degraded IkB, Degraded NIK, Apoptosis, Tumour, Antiviral Activity, B Cell Growth and Cell Migration. However, last 5 processes above are also influenced by other pathways too, therefore while making predictions, caution has to be exercised.

Identification of genes that are regulated by TAK1 in human cutaneous T cell lymphoma HuT-102 cells

Project description:We previously reported that human T cell lymphotropic virus 1 (HTLV-1) Tax oncoprotein constitutively activates TAK1. Here, we established Tax-positive HuT-102 cells stably downregulated TAK1 expression by short-hairpin RNA (HuT-shTAK1 cells), and investigated the physiological function of TAK1. Microarray analysis demonstrated that several interferon (IFN)-inducible genes including chemokines such as CXCL10 and CCL5 were significantly downregulated in HuT-shTAK1 cells. In contrast, Tax-mediated constitutive activation of NF-kB was intact in HuT-shTAK1 cells. IRF3, a critical transcription factor in innate immunity to viral infection, was constitutively activated in a Tax-dependent manner. Activation of IRF3 and IRF3-dependent gene expression were dependent on TAK1 and TBK1. On the other hand, IRF4, another IRF family of transcription factor overexpressed in a Tax-independent manner, negatively regulated the TAK1-dependent IRF3 transcriptional activity. Together, HTLV-1 manipulates IFN signaling by regulating both positive and negative IRFs. HuT-102 cells, a human cutaneous T cell lymphoma, were stably transfected with shRNA expression vectors against human MAP3K7 (TAK1) or firefly luciferase (Luc). The cells were maintained in media containing 0.5 mg/ml G418. For the experiment, the cells were incubated in media without G418 for 36 h at 37M-BM-0C. Total RNA samples were prepared from the cells. Gene expression was analyzed by an Affymetrix GeneChipM-BM-. system with a Human Genome U133-plus 2.0 array for analysis of over 47,000 transcripts. Sample preparation for array hybridization was carried out as described in the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions. Two replicates per sample type.

Human RELA haploinsufficiency results in autosomal dominant chronic mucocutaneous ulceration: the transcriptional profile of RelA haploinsufficient patients

Project description:The treatment of chronic mucocutaneous ulceration is challenging and only some patients respond selectively to inhibitors of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a). TNF-a activates opposing pathways leading to caspase-8-mediated apoptosis as well as NF-kB-dependent cell survival. We investigated the etiology of autosomal dominant mucocutaneous ulceration in a family whose proband was dependent on anti-TNF-a therapy for sustained remission. A heterozygous mutation in RELA (NM_021975: c.559+1G>A), encoding the NF-kB subunit RelA (p65), segregated with the disease phenotype and resulted in RelA haploinsufficiency. The patients’ fibroblasts exhibited increased apoptosis in response to TNF-a, impaired NF-kB activation, and defective expression of NF-B-dependent anti-apoptotic genes. We show that Rela+/- mice have similarly impaired NF-kB activation, develop cutaneous ulceration from TNF-a exposure, and exhibit severe dextran sodium sulfate-induced colitis ameliorated by TNF-a inhibition. These findings demonstrate an essential contribution of biallelic RELA expression in protecting stromal cells from TNF-a-mediated cell death, thus delineating the mechanisms driving the effectiveness of TNF-a inhibition in this disease.

An EZH2-NF-kB Regulatory Axis Drives Expression of Pro-Oncogenic Genetic Signatures in TNBC

Project description:EZH2 has been studied most extensively in the context of PRC2-dependent gene repression. Paradoxically, accumulating evidence indicates non-canonical functions for EZH2 in cancer contexts including promoting gene expression in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells through interactions with the transcription factor NF-kB. We define a genomic profile of EZH2 and NF-kB factor RelA, RelB, and NFKB2/p52 co-localization and positive regulation of a subset of NF-kB targets and genes associated with oncogenic functions in TNBC, which is enriched in patient datasets. We demonstrate interaction between EZH2 and RelA requiring the recently identified EZH2 transactivation domain (TAD), which mediates EZH2 recruitment to and activation of certain NF-kB-dependent genes, and supports downstream stemness phenotypes in TNBC cells. Interestingly, EZH2-NF-kB positive regulation of genes and stemness does not require PRC2. This study provides new insight into pro-oncogenic regulatory functions for EZH2 in breast cancer through PRC2-independent, and NF-kB-dependent regulatory mechanisms.

An epithelial Nfkb2 pathway exacerbates intestinal inflammation by supplementing latent RelA complexes to the canonical NF-kB module

Project description:The canonical NF-kB module induces nuclear translocation of RelA heterodimers from the latent cytoplasmic complexes. RelA directs inflammatory immune responses against microbial entities. However, aberrant RelA activity also triggers destructive inflammation, including those associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). What provokes this pathological RelA activity remains unclear. As such, the noncanonical NF-kB pathway activates RelB heterodimers and mediates immune organogenesis. Because NF-kB-activating pathways are interlinked, we asked if noncanonical NF-kB signaling exacerbated intestinal inflammation. Our investigation revealed recurrent engagement of the noncanonical pathway in human IBD. In a mouse model of chemical colitis, the noncanonical NF-kB signaling gene Nfkb2 aggravated inflammation by amplifying the RelA activity induced in intestinal epithelial cells. Our mechanistic studies clarified that noncanonical signaling augmented the abundance of latent RelA complexes leading to hyperactive canonical NF-kB response in the colitogenic gut. In sum, latent dimer homeostasis appears to link noncanonical NF-kB signaling to RelA-driven inflammatory pathologies.
