Project description:Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. The oxygen-sensitive Hypoxia Inducible Factor (HIF) transcriptional regulators HIF-1α and HIF-2α are overexpressed in many human NSCLCs, and constitutive HIF-2α activity can promote murine lung tumor progression, suggesting that HIF proteins may be effective NSCLC therapeutic targets. To investigate the consequences of inhibiting HIF activity in lung cancers, we deleted Hif-1α or Hif-2α in an established KrasG12D-driven murine NSCLC model. Deletion of Hif-1α had no obvious effect on tumor growth, whereas Hif-2α deletion resulted in an unexpected increase in tumor burden that correlated with reduced expression of the candidate tumor suppressor gene Scgb3a1 (HIN-1). Here, we identify Scgb3a1 as a direct HIF-2α target gene, and demonstrate that HIF-2α regulates Scgb3a1 expression and tumor formation in human KrasG12D-driven NSCLC cells. AKT pathway activity, reported to be repressed by Scgb3a1, was enhanced in HIF-2α deficient human NSCLC cells and xenografts. Finally, a direct correlation between HIF-2α and SCGB3a1 expression was observed in approximately 70% of human NSCLC samples analyzed. These data suggest that whereas HIF-2α overexpression can contribute to NSCLC progression, therapeutic inhibition of HIF-2α below a critical threshold may paradoxically promote tumor growth by reducing expression of tumor suppressor genes, including Scgb3a1. RNA was isolated from tumors of experimental (Hif2alpha deficient) mice and control mice (seven for each group).

Project description:Hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment plays a crucial role in the evasion of immune surveillance by tumor cells. In this study, we aimed to identify the miRs regulated by hypoxia in NSCLC and melanoma and their putative involvement in the regulation of tumor susceptibility to antigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL)-mediated killing. MicroRNA-210 (miR-210) was significantly induced in a hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1_) dependent manner in NSCLC and melanoma cells. We show for the first time that miR-210 was expressed in hypoxic zones of human NSCLC tissues. Transfection of anti-miR-210 in both hypoxic NSCLC and melanoma cells resulted in a significant restoration of their susceptibility to autologous CTL-mediated lysis, independent of tumor cell recognition and CTL reactivity. A comprehensive approach using transcriptome analysis and argonaute protein immunoprecipitation indicated that PTPN, HOXA1and TP53I11 were regulated by miR-210 in hypoxic IGR-Heu cells. Simultaneous silencing of PTPN, HOXA1 and TP53I11 resulted in a dramatic decrease in target susceptibility to CTL-mediated lysis. This is the first report showing that hypoxia-induced miR-210 regulates tumor cell susceptibility to CTL-mediated lysis in part by suppressing PTPN, HOXA1 and TP53I11 expression. These studies suggest that miR-210 plays a potential role in the regulation of anti-tumor immune responses. The experience consists in 16 hybridizations on human miRNA Agilent arrays in one color, with 2 types of cell lines (HeuN and Na8) and 3 time of hypoxy induction (1% O2) (6, 16 and 24 hours) in comparison with normoxy (21% O2) at t=0. The hybridizations are made in replicates.

Project description:Mutations in KRAS occur in a variety of tumors of epithelial origin, driving the oncogenic phenotype.The NF-kB transcription factor pathway is important for oncogenic RAS to transform cells and to drive tumorigenesis in animal models. Recently TAK1, an upstream regulator of IKK which controls canonical NF-kB, was shown to be important for chemoresistance in pancreatic cancer and for regulating KRAS+ colorectal cancer cell growth and survival. Here we show that GSK-3alpha is upregulated by KRAS leading to interaction with TAK1 to stabilize the TAK1/TAB complex to promote IKK activity. Additionally, GSK-3alpha is required for promoting critical non-canonical NF-kB signaling in pancreatic cancer cells. Pharmacologic inhibition of GSK-3 suppresses growth of human pancreatic tumor explants, consistent with loss of expression of genes such as c-myc and TERT. These data identify GSK-3alpha as a key downstream effector of oncogenic RAS via its ability to coordinately regulate distinct NF-kB signaling pathways GSK-3 inhibition at 2 and 8 hours

Project description:The activation of the transcription factor Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) plays an essential role in tumor development, tumor progression and resistance to chemo- and radiotherapy. In order to identify compounds targeting the HIF pathway, a small-molecule library was screened using a luciferase-driven HIF-1 reporter cell line under hypoxia. The high throughput screen led to the identification of a class of aminoalkyl-substituted compounds that inhibited hypoxia-induced HIF-1 target gene expression in human lung cancer cell lines at low nanomolar concentrations but did not affect expression levels of genes outside of the HIF-1 pathway. Lead structure BAY 87-2243 was found to inhibit HIF-1α protein accumulation under hypoxic conditions in NSCLC cell line H460 but had no effect on HIF-1α protein accumulation and HIF target gene expression in RCC4 cells lacking VHL activity or in H460 cells after inhibition of HIF prolyl hydroxylase activity. BAY 87-2243 had no effect on HIF-α-mRNA levels. Antitumor activity of BAY 87-2243 and suppression of HIF-1 target gene expression in vivo was demonstrated in a H460 xenograft model. BAY 87-2243 did not inhibit cell proliferation under standard conditions. However under glucose depletion, a condition favoring mitochondrial ATP generation as energy source, BAY 87-2243 inhibited cell proliferation in the nanomolar range. Further experiments revealed that BAY 87-2243 inhibits mitochondrial production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by blocking complex I activity but has no effect on complex III activity. Lowering of mitochondrial ROS production to reduce hypoxia-induced HIF-1 activity in tumors might be an interesting therapeutic approach to overcome chemo- and radiotherapy-resistance of hypoxic tumors. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression that is induced in NSCLC cell line H460 upon hypoxia (16 h incubation at 1 % pO2) and evaluated a dose-dependent effect of our HIF-1-pathway inhibitor BAY 87-2243 on genes tthat are affected by hypoxia. Specificity of BAY 87-2243 for the suppression of HIF-1-mediated gene transcription on a genome-wide scale was evaluated by microarray hybridizations using Affymetrix GeneChip Human Gene 1.0 ST arrays. RNA from normoxic H460 cells and from hypoxic H460 cells incubated with 1, 10 and 100 nM BAY 87-2243 respectively was subjected to array hybridization. Of those 30 genes that were most strongly suppressed by 100 nM BAY 87-2243 in hypoxic H460 cells compared to DMSO-treated hypoxic H460 cells, virtually all of them are induced by prior hypoxia and most of these genes have been described in the literature as HIF-1 target genes

Project description:NSCLC remains to be the leading cause of cancer incidence and mortality in the Philippines. Early diagnosis, better understanding on the mechanisms of drug resistance, and proper treatment monitoring is necessary to lower the incidence and mortality rate of NSCLC. This study was able to provide initial insights on the proteomic profile of Filipino NSCLC by quantitative proteomic analysis and identification of aberrant expressions in the tumor tissue relative to the adjacent normal tissue specimen. A total of 4518 proteins were identified and from this, 1855 proteins were found to be significantly upregulated and downregulated. Functional and pathway analysis was done to the upregulated and downregulated proteins with at least 4-fold expression change. Pathway analysis revealed the possible activation of the upregulated protein, MUC1, which is a known oncogenic driver involved in the stimulation of pathways that promote angiogenesis in NSCLC tumor, and prevention of apoptosis. STAT1 and STAT3, also found upregulated in the tumor specimen, were known to have interactions with MUC1 which results to expression of proteins for cell proliferation. The analysis also suggests the stabilization of HIF which allows cell growth in the hypoxic tumor environment, and the activation of EIF signaling correlated with low survival rate of NSCLC patients. Our data demonstrate the rich proteomic information that can be obtained from comprehensive profiling of the NSCLC proteome and applications for better understanding of NSCLC tumorigenicity.

Project description:Kidney cancer accounts for more than 100,000 deaths per year world-wide. More than 80% are clear cell tumors (ccRCCs) and the majority are associated with loss of function of the von Hippel Lindau (pVHL) tumor suppressor resulting in upregulation of HIF-{alpha} subunits, and activation of HIF-dependent transcriptional pathways. Recent GWAS studies have discovered RCC-susceptibility loci both within EPAS1 (HIF-2{alpha}) and in an intergenic region of unknown function on 11q13.3. As part of an ongoing study to define the direct transcriptional targets of HIF-2 in renal cancer, we undertook a genome-wide analysis of HIF-2-binding sites in pVHL-defective 786-O cells (that lack functional HIF-1{alpha} due to a truncated transcript) using chromatin immunoprecipitation with antibodies directed against HIF-2{alpha} and its dimerization partner HIF-1{beta}, coupled to high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq). Amongst approximately 600 pangenomic HIF-2{beta} ChIP signals, we observed strong binding (ranked 12th by peak height) almost precisely coinciding with the RCC predisposition SNP rs7105934 on 11q13.3. We report binding of HIF-2{alpha} and HIF-1{beta} in 786-O clear cell renal carcinoma cells. 3 samples examined, HIF-2{alpha}, HIF-1{beta} and pre-immune control ChIP.

Project description:To investigate the detailed molecular mechanisms for the regulatory role of HIF-2α in experimental colitis, microarray gene expression analysis was performed on colon RNA isolated from 6- to 8-week-old Hif-2αF/F, Hif-2αlΔIE mice treated with 3%DSS for 3 days. Background & Aims: Hypoxic inflammation is characterized by decreased oxygen tension in inflammatory foci, and is a notable feature in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Hypoxic response is mediated by transcription factors hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α and HIF-2α, both of which are highly induced in IBD. HIF-1α is a protective factor that limits intestinal barrier dysfunction during inflammation. However, the role of HIF-2α has not been assessed in hypoxic inflammation and IBD. Methods: A hypoxia reporter mouse model was used to test the presence of hypoxia and HIF-2α in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) and Citrobacter rodentium (C.rod)-induced colitis. The role of HIF-2α in these mouse models of colitis was further assessed in mice with an intestinal epithelium-specific gain- and loss-of-function of HIF-2α. Results: Induction of hypoxia and HIF-2α was confirmed in both murine experimental colitis models and human IBD samples. Disruption of HIF-2α attenuated colonic inflammation whereas stabilization of HIF-2α potentiated inflammation in mouse models of colitis. Interestingly, intestine specific overexpression of HIF-2α but not HIF-1α leads to spontaneous colitis and premature death in mice. Further mechanistic analysis showed that HIF-2α is a driver for pro-inflammatory response and is critical regulator of intestinal epithelial-derived tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α. Blocking TNF-α completely ameliorated HIF-2α potentiated intestinal inflammation. Conclusions: These data demonstrate that HIF-2α is a critical transcription factor essential in intestinal epithelium elicited inflammatory response. Global gene expression profiling in colon RNAs isolated from 7-week-old Hif-2αF/F (n=6, Shah 007) and Hif-2αΔIE (n=5, Shah 008).
