Tristetraprolin expression by keratinocytes protects against skin carcinogenesis

ABSTRACT: Cancer is caused primarily by somatic mutations of proto-oncogenes, leading to deregulation of gene regulatory circuits in key growth, apoptosis or DNA repair pathways. Multiple genes associated with the initiation and development of tumors are also regulated at the level of mRNA decay, through the recruitment of RNA binding proteins to AU-rich elements (AREs) located in their 3’-untranslated regions. One of these ARE-binding proteins, tristetraprolin (TTP, encoded by Zfp36) is consistently dysregulated in many human malignancies. Herein, using regulated overexpression or conditional ablation in the context of chemical cutaneous carcinogenesis, we show that TTP represents a critical regulator of skin tumorigenesis. We provide evidence that TTP controls both tumor-associated inflammation and key oncogenic pathways in malignant epidermal cells. We identify Areg as a direct target of TTP in keratinocytes, and show that EGFR signaling contributes to exacerbated tumor formation. We conclude that TTP expression by epidermal cells plays a major role in the control of early steps leading to tumorigenesis.

Tristetraprolin is a tumor suppressor that impairs Myc-induced lymphoma and abolishes the malignant state [Lymphoma].

Project description:Myc oncoproteins directly regulate transcription by binding to target genes, yet this only explains a fraction of the genes affected by Myc. mRNA turnover is controlled via AU-binding proteins (AUBPs) that recognize AU-rich elements (AREs) found within many transcripts. Analyses of precancerous and malignant Myc-expressing B cells revealed that Myc regulates hundreds of ARE-containing (ARED) genes and select AUBPs. Notably, Myc directly suppresses transcription of Tristetraprolin (TTP/ZFP36), an mRNA-destabilizing AUBP, and this circuit is also operational during B lymphopoiesis and IL7 signaling. Importantly, TTP suppression is a hallmark of cancers with MYC involvement, and restoring TTP impairs Myc-induced lymphomagenesis and abolishes maintenance of the malignant state. Further, there is a selection for TTP loss in malignancy; thus, TTP functions as a tumor suppressor. Finally, Myc/TTP-directed control of select cancer-associated ARED genes is disabled during lymphomagenesis. Thus, Myc targets AUBPs to regulate ARED genes that control tumorigenesis. Lymphomas collected from EÎ¼-Myc and EÎ¼-Myc;EÂµ-TTP-1 transgenic mice were investigated. These samples were used for subsequent RNA purification, labeling and hybridization to MOE430 2.0 Affymetrix arrays.

Ex vivo Eμ-Myc lymphoma cells were infected with MSCV-I-dsRed2 (RFP) and FACS sorted for dsRed2+ cells. These cells were then infected with MSCV-TTP-I-GFP and FACS sorted for GFP expression (TTP-GFP- or TTP-GFP+). These cells were used for subsequent RNA purification, labeling and hybridization to MOE430 2.0 Affymetrix arrays.

Tristetraprolin (TTP) regulated splenic transcriptome in "TTPΔARE" mice

Project description:Tristetraprolin (TTP) binds to specific AU-rich elements in the 3'UTR of certain transcripts and regulates post-transcriptional gene expression by increasing the rate of mRNA turnover. Here, we generated a novel TTP mouse line (TTPΔARE) with a 136 base deletion in the 3'UTR AU-rich region of TTP mRNA, which resulted in a moderate increase in TTP protein expression in many tissues. In this study, we evaluated the effects of the moderate TTP overexpression on the overall pattern of gene expression in spleen, to investigate the effect of this mutation on mRNA targets of TTP under normal conditions. We utilized "TTPΔARE" (136 b deletion in the 3'UTR AU-rich region of Zfp36 mRNA) mice that overexpress TTP and compared the transcriptomic changes to the littermate "WT" mice. Spleen mRNA from four WT and four "TTPΔARE" mice were subjected to mRNA-Seq. All the animals used in this study were males between the ages of 8-12 weeks and were on a C57BL/6 background.

Global Target mRNA Specification and Regulation by RNA-Binding Protein ZFP36/Tristetraprolin/TTP [PAR-CLIP]

Project description:Tristetraprolin/ZFP36/TTP and ELAVL1/HuR are two disease-relevant RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) that both interact with AU-rich sequences but have antagonistic roles. While ELAVL1 binding has been profiled in several studies, the precise in vivo binding specificity of ZFP36 has not been investigated on a global scale. We determined ZFP36 binding preferences using cross-linking and immunoprecipitation in human embyonic kidney cells and examined combinatorial regulation of AU-rich elements by ZFP36 and ELAVL1. Among the targets ZFP36 binds and negatively regulates the mRNA of genes encoding proteins necessary for immune function and cancer, and other RBPs. Using partial correlation analysis, we were able to quantify the association between ZFP36 binding sites and differential target RNA abundance from ZFP36 overexpression independent of effects from confounding features, such as 3M-bM-^@M-^Y UTR length. We identified thousands of overlapping ZFP36 and ELAVL1 binding sites, in 1,313 genes. ZFP36 preferentially interacts with and regulates AU-rich sequences while ELAVL1 prefers predominantly U- and CU-rich sequences. RNA target specificity identified by global in vivo ZFP36-mRNA interactions were quantitatively similar to previously reported in vitro binding affinities. ZFP36 and ELAVL1 both bind an overlapping spectrum of RNA sequences, yet with differential relative preferences that dictate combinatorial regulatory potential. Our findings and methodology delineate an approach to untangle the in vivo combinatorial regulation by RNA-binding proteins. FLAG-HA ZFP36

Tristetraprolin targets Nos2 expression in the colonic epithelium

Project description:Tristetraprolin (TTP), encoded by the Zfp36 gene, is a zinc-finger protein that regulates RNA stability primarily through association with 3’ untranslated regions (3’UTRs) of target mRNAs. While TTP is expressed abundantly in the intestines, its function in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) is unknown. Here we used a cre-lox system to remove Zfp36 in the mouse epithelium to uncover a role for TTP in IECs and to identify target genes in these cells. While TTP was largely dispensable for establishment and maintenance of the colonic epithelium, we found an expansion of the proliferative zone and an increase in goblet cell numbers in the colon crypts of Zfp36ΔIEC mice. Furthermore, through RNA-sequencing of transcripts isolated from the colons of Zfp36fl/fl and Zfp36ΔIEC mice, we found that expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNos or Nos2) was elevated in TTP-knockout IECs. We demonstrate that TTP interacts with AU-rich elements in the Nos2 3’UTR and suppresses Nos2 expression. In comparison to control Zfp36fl/fl mice, Zfp36ΔIEC mice were less susceptible to dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced acute colitis. Together, these results demonstrate that TTP targets Nos2 expression in IECs and aggravates acute colitis.
