Embryonic stem cell differentiation is regulated by SET through interactions with p53 and β‐catenin

ABSTRACT: The multifunctional histone chaperone, SET, is essential for embryonic development in mouse. Previously, we identified SET as a factor that is rapidly downregulated during embryonic stem cell (ESC) differentiation, suggesting a possible role in the maintenance of pluripotency. Here, we set out to explore SET’s function and its mechanism in early differentiation. Using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC‐MS/MS), we uncover the factors and complexes, including P53 and β-catenin, by which SET regulates lineage-specification. SET knockout (KO) and shRNA-knockdown experiments for both P53 and β-catenin in SET-KO ESCs reveal that P53 knockdown partially rescues lineage-marker misregulation during differentiation. β-catenin depletion, on the other hand, rescues the elevated Wnt gene expression observed in SET-KO ESCs. Integration of multiple ChIP-seq and RNA-seq datasets reveals a predominantly activating function of SET in gene regulation. Moreover, further analysis reveals a co-regulatory relationship between SET and TCF3, a downstream effector of Wnt-signalling. Overall, we discover a role for both P53 and β-catenin in SET-regulated early differentiation and uncover a potential mechanism for SET function at the β-catenin-TCF regulatory axis.

Transcriptional responses to GSK3 inhibitor and MEK inhibitor on 2i-adapted mouse embryonic stem cells

Project description:The objective of this study was to investigate the roles of GSK3 inhibitor CHIR99021 and MEK inhibitor PD0325901 on 2i-adapted mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) in serum-free conditions.Canonical Wnt signaling supports the pluripotency of mouse ESCs but also promotes differentiation of early mammalian cell lineages. To explain these paradoxical observations, we explored the gene regulatory networks at play. Canonical Wnt signaling is intertwined with the pluripotency network comprising Nanog, Oct4, and Sox2 in mouse ESCs. In defined media supporting the derivation and propagation of mouse ESCs, Tcf3 and β-catenin interact with Oct4; Tcf3 binds to Sox motif within Oct-Sox composite motifs that are also bound by Oct4-Sox2 complexes. Further, canonical Wnt signaling up-regulates the activity of the Pou5f1 distal enhancer via the Sox motif in mouse ESCs. When viewed in the context of published studies on Tcf3 and β-catenin mutants, our findings suggest that Tcf3 counters pluripotency by competition with Sox2 at these sites, and Tcf3 inhibition is blocked by β-catenin entry into this complex. Wnt pathway stimulation also triggers β-catenin association at regulatory elements with classic Lef/Tcf motifs associated with differentiation programs. The failure to activate these targets in the presence of a MEK/ERK inhibitor essential for mouse ESC culture suggests that MEK/ERK signaling and canonical Wnt signaling combine to mouse promote ESC differentiation.

Extracts from sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor), a feedstock for biorefining, suppressed proliferation and elevated apoptosis in human colon cancer stem cells via suppression of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway

Project description:In colorectal cancer, p53 is commonly inactivated, associated with chemo-resistance, and marks the transition from non-invasive to invasive disease. Cancers, including colorectal cancer, are thought to be diseases of aberrant stem cell populations, as stem cells are able to self-renew, making them long-lived enough to acquire mutations necessary to manifest the disease. We have shown that extracts from sweet sorghum stalk components eliminate colon cancer stem cells (CCSC) in a partial p53-dependent fashion. However, the underlying mechanisms are unknown. In the present study, CCSC were transfected with short hairpin-RNA against p53 (CCSC p53 shRNA) and treated with sweet sorghum phenolics extracted from different plant components (dermal layer, leaf, seed head and whole plant). While all components demonstrated anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects in CCSC, phenolics extracted from the dermal layer and seed head were more potent in eliminating CCSC by elevating caspases 3/7 activity, PARP cleavage, and DNA fragmentation in a p53-dependent and p53-independent fashion, respectively. Further investigations revealed that the anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects were associated with decreases in beta-catenin protein levels, and beta-catenin targets cyclin D1, cMyc, and survivin. These results suggest that the anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects of sweet sorghum extracts against human colon cancer stem cells are via suppression of Wnt/beta-catenin pro-survival signaling in a p53-dependent (dermal layer) and partial p53-independent (seed head) fashion.

B-catenin deficiency, but not c-Myc deletion, suppresses the immediate phenotypes of Apc loss in the liver

Project description:Dysregulated Wnt signalling is seen in approximately 30% of hepatocellular cancers, thus finding pathways downstream of activation of Wnt signalling is key. Using cre lox technology we have deleted the the adenomatous polyposis coli tumour suppressor protein (Apc) within the adult mouse liver and observed a rapid increase in nuclear beta-catenin and C-Myc. This is associated with an induction of proliferation leading to hepatomegally within 4 days of gene deletion. To investigate the downstream pathways responsible for these phenotypes we analysed the impact of inactivating Apc in the context of deficiency of the potentially key effectors beta-catenin and c-Myc. beta-catenin loss rescues both the proliferation and hepatomegally phenotypes following Apc loss. However c-Myc deletion, which rescues the phenotypes of Apc loss in the intestine, had no effect on the phenotypes of Apc loss. The consequences of deregulation the Wnt pathway within the liver are therefore strikingly different to those observed within the intestine, with the vast majority of Wnt targets beta-catenin dependent but c-Myc independent in the liver. Samples were collected from Genetcially modified mice of the genotypes indicated in the characteristics field. Gene recombination was induced using IP administration of beta-napthoflavone. Cohorts of samples were used to compare the affects of APC loss, cMYC loss and combined APC and cMYC loss in the liver (and compared to matched control samples in which the genes were not recombined).

PRDM proteins control Wnt/β-catenin activity to regulate craniofacial chondrocyte differentiation

Project description:Cranial neural crest (NCC)-derived chondrocyte precursors undergo a dynamic differentiation and maturation process to establish a scaffold for subsequent bone formation, alterations in which contribute to congenital birth defects. Here, we demonstrate that transcription factor and histone methyltransferase proteins Prdm3 and Prdm16 control the differentiation switch of cranial NCCs to craniofacial cartilage. Loss of either results in hypoplastic and unorganized chondrocytes due to impaired cellular orientation and polarity. We show that PRDMs regulate cartilage differentiation by controlling the timing of Wnt/β-catenin activity in strikingly different ways: prdm3 represses while prdm16 activates global gene expression, though both by regulating Wnt enhanceosome activity and chromatin accessibility. Finally, we show that manipulating Wnt/β-catenin signaling pharmacologically or generating prdm3-/-;prdm16-/- double mutants rescues craniofacial cartilage defects. Our findings reveal upstream regulatory roles for Prdm3 and Prdm16 in cranial NCCs to control Wnt/β-catenin transcriptional activity during chondrocyte differentiation to ensure proper development of the craniofacial skeleton.

Expression data from Sip1 cKO and control mice spinal cord

Project description:Myelination by oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system (CNS) is essential for proper brain function, yet the molecular determinants that control this process remain poorly understood. The basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors Olig1 and Olig2 promote myelination, whereas bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) and Wnt/β-catenin signaling inhibit myelination. Here we show that these opposing regulators of myelination are functionally linked by the Olig1/2 common target Smad-interacting protein-1 (Sip1). We demonstrate that Sip1 is an essential modulator of CNS myelination. Sip1 represses differentiation inhibitory signals by antagonizing BMP receptor-activated Smad activity while activating crucial oligodendrocyte-promoting factors. Importantly, a key Sip1-activated target, Smad7, is required for oligodendrocyte differentiation and partially rescues differentiation defects caused by Sip1 loss. Smad7 promotes myelination by blocking the BMP- and β-catenin-negative regulatory pathways. Thus, our findings reveal that Sip1-mediated antagonism of inhibitory signaling is critical for promoting CNS myelination and point to new mediators for myelin repair. We carried out microarray profiling analysis in the Sip1 conditional KO (cKO) mouse spinal cord to detail the change of global gene expression. Sip1 c/c;Olig1-Cre mouse spinal cord was collected at P14 for RNA extraction and Affymetrix microarray analysis. Sip1 c/+;Olig1-Cre littermate spinal cord was used as the control.

USP7 is a tumor-specific WNT activator for APC-mutated colorectal cancer by mediating B-catenin deu

Project description:The tumor suppressor gene adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) is mutated in most colorectal cancers (CRC) resulting in constitutive Wnt activation. To understand the Wnt-activating mechanism of APC mutation, we applied CRISPR/Cas9 technology to engineer various APC-truncated isogenic lines. We find that the β-catenin inhibitory domain (CID) in APC represents the threshold for pathological levels of Wnt activation and tumor transformation. Mechanistically, CID-deleted APC truncation promotes β-catenin deubiquitination through reverse binding of β-TrCP and USP7 to the destruction complex. USP7 depletion in APC-mutated CRC inhibits Wnt activation by restoring β-catenin ubiquitination, drives differentiation and suppresses xenograft tumor growth. Finally, the Wnt-activating role of USP7 is specific to APC mutations, thus can be used as tumor-specific therapeutic target for most CRCs.

p53 coordinates Wnt and TGF-β inputs on mesendoderm differentiation genes

Project description:The TGF-β superfamily member Nodal triggers mesendoderm differentiation in embryonic stem (ES) cells. This transition however requires cooperating Wnt signaling inputs. Here we report that p53, a powerful tumor suppressor in adult tissues, orchestrates this cooperation. We show that p53, which is released from inhibition as mouse ES cells exit from pluripotency, acts as a direct inducer of Wnt3 expression. Wnt-activated Tcf3 then converges with Nodal-activated Smad transcriptional complexes on mesendoderm specification super-enhancers. p53 and its homolog p73 act redundantly in Wnt induction. When p53 and p73 are depleted, the ES cells fail to secrete autocrine Wnt ligands, Tcf and Nodal-activated Smads fail to bind to mesendoderm gene enhancers, and the cells adopt ectoderm rather than mesendoderm identity. Enforced Wnt3 expression or addition of Wnt3a rescues mesendoderm differentiation in p53/p73-depleted ES cells. Thus, independently of their established role as tumor suppressors that guard genome integrity in mature cells, p53 and p73 serve a primordial role in ES cell differentiation by driving a cooperation of Wnt and TGF-β transcriptional inputs on mesendoderm identity gene enhancers.
