The Chromatin Remodeler Chromodomain Helicase DNA Binding Protein 2 Promotes Colorectal Cancer Progression

ABSTRACT: Integrative analysis of colorectal cancer (CRC) whole genomes and matched transcriptomes revealed that somatic promoter mutations are associated with increased Chromodomain helicase DNA-binding protein 2 (CHD2) levels. In both primary and metastatic CRC patients, elevated CHD2 levels are associated with worse prognosis and overall survival. We find that CHD2 increases promoter-transcription start site-chromatin accessibility and transcriptional upregulation of multiple oncogenes. In vitro, elevated CHD2 promoted CRC cell proliferation, migration and growth. In orthotopic xenografts, CHD2 promoted higher tumor burden and abdominal metastases, most prominently to the liver. FTD/TPI is an FDA approved chemotherapy for advanced chemo-refractory CRC. In orthotopic CRC models, FTD/TPI was highly effective in reducing metastases and prolonging survival for CHD2 high expressing CRCs. Thus, high CHD2 expression may be a potential CRC chemopredictive biomarker for FTD/TPI. Overall, these results provide new insights into the role of non-coding mutations and CHD2 levels to promote CRC growth and metastasis.

Chd2 knockout effect on chromatin remodelling and the expression of developmental genes in mouse embryonic stem cells (RNA-Seq)

Project description:We demonstrate that chromodomain helicase DNA-binding domain 2 (Chd2) is required to maintain the differentiation potential of mouse ESCs. Chd2-depleted ESCs showed suppressed expression of developmentally regulated genes upon differentiation and subsequent differentiation defects without affecting gene expression in the undifferentiated state. Furthermore, chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing revealed alterations in a proportion of nucleosomes of developmentally regulated genes in Chd2-depleted ESCs to enhance histone variant H3.3 enrichment, leading to elevated trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 27.Chd2 is essential to prevent suppressive chromatin formation in developmentally regulated genes and determines subsequent effects on developmental processes in the undifferentiated state.

Regulation of CHD2 expression by a long noncoding RNA is essential for mammalian development

Project description:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are enriched in regions flanking transcription- and chromatin-associated genes, but the functional importance of such co-location events is largely unclear. Chromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 2 (Chd2) is chromatin remodeller with various reported functions in cell differentiation and DNA damage response. Heterozygous mutations in human CHD2 have been implicated in epilepsy, neurodevelopmental delay, and intellectual disability. Here we show that Chaser, a highly conserved long noncoding RNA transcribed from a region in close proximity to the transcription start site of Chd2 and on the same strand, acts in concert with the CHD2 protein to maintain proper Chd2 expression levels. Loss of Chaser in mice leads to substantially increased levels of Chd2 mRNA and protein in the embryo and in adult tissues, early postnatal lethality in homozygous animals, and severe growth retardation in heterozygotes. Mechanistically, over-production of Chd2 induced by loss of Chaser leads to increased transcriptional interference by inhibiting promoters found downstream of highly expressed genes. We further show that Chaser production represses Chd2 expression solely in cis, and the phenotypic consequences of Chaser loss are rescued when Chd2 is perturbed as well. Targeting Chaser is thus a potentially viable strategy for increasing CHD2 levels in haploinsufficient individuals.

Characterizing transcriptomic differences between between primary colorectal adenocarcinomas and distant metastases reveals subtypes of metastatic colorectal cancer

Project description:We present a novel approach for investigating transcriptomic differences between primary colorectal cancers (CRC) and distant CRC metastases, which may help to identify primaries at high risk for future dissemination and to inform the development of metastasis-targeted therapies. Eliminating tissue specificity of the “host” organs where tumors are located and adjusting for confounders such as exposure to chemotherapy and radiation, allows for an effective comparison of primary CRC and metastatic lesion transcriptomes at both the gene and pathway levels. Using this approach, our discovery-validation design identified that metastases are characterized by reduced epithelial-mesenchymal-transition (EMT) but increased MYC target and DNA repair pathway activities. The most significant gene-level expression differences between primaries and metastases were in FBN2 and MMP3, which showed over a 7-fold difference. In addition, we uncovered two distinct subtypes of CRC metastases that are characterized by either EMT-inflammatory or proliferative phenotypes, and demonstrated that none of the metastases examined were of consensus molecular subtype (CMS) 3 suggesting subtype exclusivity. Highlighting transcriptome differences between primary tumors and CRC metastases delineates pathways that may be activated in metastases and may assist in the development and/or selection of existing targeted treatment regimens for individuals with metastatic disease.

Expression data from human osteosarcoma bone primaries or lung metastases

Project description:The high concentration of Well5 cells was resuspended into 20μl PBS, the needle along the tibia direction, before reaching in a breakthrough sense, direct injection cells. At 7 days after injection, proximal tibia was able to reach mass production. At 20 days after injection, the proximal tibia mass increased.If prolonging exposure by BLI,this stage displayedthat tumor cell signalsbegan to lung metastasis. Osteosarcoma orthotopic lung metastasis model was successfully constructed. Total RNA was extracted from sorted osteosarcoma cells of the primary site and lung metastases using Trizol (Invitrogen). We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying cellularisation and identified distinct classes of up-regulated genes during osteosarcoma lung metastasis. In support of the notion that fibrosis marks the lung metastasis, the expression of numerous fibrosis-related genes such as FN1, COLs, and MMPs were upregulated from the primary site to lung metastasis in Well5-luc orthotopic inoculation model.

Dynamic change of polarity is involved in the establishment of metastasis by Spread Through Air Spaces

Project description:Spread through the airspace (STAS) is a histological finding of lung tumors where tumor cells exist within the airspace of the lung parenchyma beyond the margin of the main tumor. Although STAS is an important prognostic factor, the etiology of STAS is largely unknown. In this study, histopathological analysis revealed the presence of an apical membrane outside the STAS surrounding colorectal cancer (CRC) lung metastases and lung adenocarcinomas. When CRC cells were intratracheally administered to mice, cancer cell clusters had greater metastatic potential than single cells. An in vitro model of STAS co-cultured with CRC organoids and 2D cultured mouse airway epithelial organoids (2D-MAO) was established. Adhesion of CRC clusters to 2D-MAO was much less than to type I collagen or endothelial cells, suggesting a protective role of the airway epithelium against adhesion of cancer cell clusters. Loss of the apical membrane of CRC clusters at the contact surface with 2D-MAO after adhesion was responsible for establishing adhesion. In the co-culture model, airway epithelium stimulated by TGF-β1 promoted adhesion of CRC organoids to the airway epithelium. Among TGF-β1-induced genes in airway epithelium, FSTL1 promoted CRC organoid adhesion, suggesting that FSTL1 may promote metastasis by STAS in the inflammatory microenvironment. Elucidating the mechanism of STAS will contribute to the development of therapies to prevent STAS and its associated metastases. To examine the downstream of TGF-β1 in 2D-MAO, gene expression profiles were analyzed and compared between TGF-β1-treated with non-treated 2D-MAO. The number of differentially expressed genes that showed statistically more than 2-fold or greater changes was 709, with 571 upregulated and 138 downregulated.

AKT dependent Notch3 activation drives tumor progression in a model of mesenchymal colorectal cancer subtype

Project description:Recently a consensus molecular subtype (CMS) classification of colorectal cancer (CRC) has been established that is based on the transcriptional rather than the genetic profile of an individual tumor and which may ultimately help to individualize CRC therapy. So far, however, the lack of appropriate animal models that faithfully recapitulate the different molecular subtypes impedes adequate preclinical testing of stratified therapeutic concepts. Here we demonstrate that constitutive AKT activation in intestinal epithelial cells markedly enhances colonic tumor invasion and metastasis in Trp53DIEC mice (Trp53ΔIECAktE17K) upon challenge with the carcinogen azoxymethane (AOM). Gene-expression profiling indicates that Trp53ΔIECAktE17K tumors closely resemble the human mesenchymal colorectal cancer subtype (CMS4), which is characterized by the poorest survival rate among the four consensus molecular subtypes of CRC. Trp53ΔIECAktE17K tumors are further characterized by a NOTCH pathway gene signature and a distinct cell autonomous upregulation of Notch3 in tumor epithelia while treatment of Trp53ΔIECAktE17K mice with a NOTCH3-inhibiting antibody reduces invasion and metastasis. Conversely, selective activation of NOTCH3 by overexpression of NOTCH3-IC in Akt wt tumor organoids strongly promotes development of metastasis in an orthotopic transplantation model. In CRC patients NOTCH3 expression correlates positively with tumor grading and the presence of lymph node as well as distant metastases and is specifically upregulated in CMS4 tumors. Therefore, we suggest NOTCH3 as a putative target for advanced CMS4 CRC patients.

Prognostic significance of overexpression of Traf2- and Nck- interacting kinase (TNIK) in colorectal cancer [gene expression]

Project description:Introduction: The potential of expression profiling using microarray analysis as a tool to predict the prognosis for different types of cancer has been realized. This study aimed to identify a novel biomarker for colorectal cancer (CRC). Experimental design: The expression profiles of cancer cells in 153 patients with CRC were examined using laser microdissection and oligonucleotide microarray analysis. Overexpression in CRC cells, especially in patients with distant metastases, was a prerequisite to select candidate genes. We analyzed the protein expression and localization of the candidate gene by immunohistochemical study and investigated the relationship between protein expression and clinicopathologic features in 271 CRC patients. Results: Using microarray analysis, we identified 11 candidate genes related to distant metastases in CRC patients. Among these genes, Traf2- and Nck- interacting kinase (TNIK) was known to be associated with aggressiveness in CRC through Wnt signaling. Absence of overexpression of TNIK protein was associated with significantly better overall survival (p < 0.001) and relapse-free survival (p < 0.001). Moreover, overexpression of TNIK protein was an independent risk factor for CRC recurrence (p = 0.009). Conclusion: Overexpression of TNIK might be a predictive biomarker of CRC recurrence. Gene expression profiles for 125 cancer tissues from colorectal cancer patients were measured by Affymetrix HG-U133 Plus 2.0 arrays. Normalization was performed by robust multi-array average (RMA) method under R 2.12.1 statistical software with affy package from BioConductor. The normalized gene expression levels were presented as log2-transformed values by RMA.
