NOTCH3 is a master-regulator of motility in neuroblastoma and is essential for cell survival

ABSTRACT: Migratory embryonal neuroblasts give rise to several tissues, including the sympathetic nervous system (SNS). Neuroblastomas are paediatric tumours of the peripheral SNS with a highly variable prognosis. We observed that high NOTCH3 expression in neuroblastomas correlated with a poor prognosis. Expression of a NOTCH3 transgene in neuroblastoma cells induced many motility genes and conferred a highly motile phenotype. Expression of these motility genes strongly correlated with NOTCH3 expression in neuroblastomas and many other tumours, suggesting a general role for NOTCH3 in regulation of these genes. Silencing of NOTCH3 or genes of the Notch-processing γ-secretase complex induced apoptosis in all neuroblastoma cell lines tested. These data suggest that NOTCH3 is a key-regulator of motility, and indispensable for survival of neuroblastoma cells.

Transcription profiling of human neuroblastoma cell line expressing PHOX2B

Project description:Neuroblastoma is an embryonal tumour of the peripheral sympathetic nervous system (SNS). One of the master regulator genes for peripheral SNS differentiation, the homeobox transcription factor PHOX2B, is mutated in familiar and sporadic neuroblastomas. Here we report that inducible expression of PHOX2B in the neuroblastoma cell line SJNB-8 down-regulates MSX1, a homeobox gene important for embryonic neural crest development. Inducible expression of MSX1 in SJNB-8 caused inhibition of both cell proliferation and colony formation in soft agar. Affymetrix micro- array and Northern blot analysis demonstrated that MSX1 strongly up-regulated the Delta-Notch pathway. These experiments describe for the first time regulation of the Delta-Notch pathway by MSX1, and connect these genes to the PHOX2B oncogene, indicative of a role in neuroblastoma biology. Experiment Overall Design: Time course experiments of two independent clones (K2 and K5), with 2 or 4 time points, respectively.

FOXO3a Is A Major Target Of Inactivation By PI3K/AKT Signaling In Aggressive Neuroblastoma

Project description:Neuroblastoma is a pediatric tumor of the peripheral sympathetic nervous system with a highly variable prognosis. Activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway in neuroblastoma is correlated with poor patient prognosis, but the precise downstream effectors mediating this effect have not been determined. Here, we identify the forkhead transcription factor FOXO3a as a key target of the PI3K/AKT pathway in neuroblastoma. FOXO3a expression was elevated in low stage neuroblastoma tumors and normal embryonal neuroblasts, but reduced in late stage neuroblastoma. Inactivation of FOXO3a by AKT was essential for neuroblastoma cell survival. Treatment of neuroblastoma cells with the dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor PI-103 activated FOXO3a and triggered apoptosis. This effect was rescued by FOXO3a silencing. Conversely, apoptosis induced by PI-103 or the AKT inhibitor MK-2206 was potentiated by FOXO3a overexpression. Further, levels of total or phosphorylated FOXO3a correlated closely with apoptotic sensitivity to MK-2206. In clinical specimens, there was an inverse relationship between gene expression signatures regulated by PI3K signaling and FOXO3a transcriptional activity. Moreover, high PI3K activity and low FOXO3a activity were each associated with an extremely poor prognosis. Our work indicates that expression of FOXO3a and its targets offer useful prognostic markers as well as biomarkers for PI3K/AKT inhibitor efficacy in neuroblastoma. Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 profiling of SY5Y-TetR-FOXO3A cells treated with doxycycline and/or the PI3K/mTOR inhibitor PI-103. Each condition profiled in triplicate.

Primary human neuroblastoma

Project description:Reference1: Ohira M, Oba S, Nakamura Y, Isogai E, Kaneko S, Nakagawa A, Hirata T, Kubo H, Goto T, Yamada S, Yoshida Y, Fuchioka M, Ishii S, Nakagawara A. Expression profiling of human primary Expression profiling using a tumor-specific cDNA microarray predicts the prognosis of intermediate risk neuroblastomas. Cancer Cell. 2005 Apr;7(4):337-50. To predict the prognosis of neuroblastoma patients and choose a better therapeutic protocol, we developed a cDNA microarray carrying 5340 genes obtained from primary neuroblastomas and examined 136 tumor samples. We made a probabilistic output statistical classifier that provided a high accuracy in prognosis prediction (89% at 5 years) and a highly reliable method to validate it. Kaplan-Meier analysis indicated that the patients in an intermediate group defined by existing markers are divided by microarray into two further groups with 5 year survivals for 36% and 89% of patients (p < 10(-4)), i.e., with unfavorably and favorably predicted neuroblastomas, respectively. According to these results, we developed a gene subset chip for a clinical tool, for which our classifier exhibited 88% prediction accuracy.

Notch3 signaling promotes tumor cell adhesion and progression in a murine epithelial ovarian cancer model

Project description:High grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) is the most common and deadly type of ovarian cancer, largely due to difficulties in early diagnosis and rapid metastasis throughout the peritoneal cavity. Previous studies have shown that expression of Notch3 correlates with worse prognosis and increased tumorigenic cell behaviors in HGSC. We investigated the mechanistic role of Notch3 in a model of metastatic ovarian cancer using the murine ovarian surface epithelial cell line, ID8 IP2. Notch3 was activated in ID8 IP2 cells via expression of the Notch3 intracellular domain (Notch3IC). Notch3IC ID8 IP2 cells injected intraperitoneally caused accelerated ascites and reduced survival compared to control ID8 IP2, particularly in early stages of disease. We interrogated downstream targets of Notch3IC in ID8 IP2 cells by RNA sequencing and found significant induction of genes that encode adhesion and extracellular matrix proteins. Notch3IC ID8 IP2 showed increased expression of ITGA1 mRNA and cell-surface protein. Notch3IC-mediated increase of ITGA1 was also seen in two human ovarian cancer cells. Notch3IC ID8 IP2 cells showed increased adhesion to collagens I and IV in vitro. We propose that Notch3 activation in ovarian cancer cells causes increased adherence to collagen-rich peritoneal surfaces. Thus, the correlation between increased Notch3 signaling and poor prognosis may be influenced by increased dissemination and metastasis of HGSC via increased attachment to the peritoneum. Implications: Expression of Notch3 accelerates the progression of ovarian cancer by increasing the adherence of disseminating cells to new metastatic sites.

Accumulation of Notch3 extracellular domain and not aberrant NOTCH3 signaling is the key driver of CADASIL arterial pathology

Project description:Loss of arterial smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and abnormal accumulation of the extracellular domain of the NOTCH3 (Notch3ECD) receptor are the two core features of CADASIL, the most common genetic cerebral small vessel disease. Although CADASIL is known to be caused by highly stereotyped dominant mutations in NOTCH3, the relationship between NOTCH3 receptor activity, Notch3ECD accumulation and arterial SMC loss has remained elusive, hampering the development of disease-modifying therapies. Using novel histopathological and multiscale imaging modalities, we quantified previously undetectable CADASIL-driven focal arterial SMC loss in the central nervous system of mice expressing the archetypal Arg169Cys CADASIL mutation. Notably, we found more severe arterial pathology and greater Notch3ECD accumulation in transgenic model mice overexpressing the mutation on a homozygous wild-type Notch3 background (TgNotch3R169C) than in knock-in model Notch3R170C/R170C mice expressing this mutation without a wild-type Notch3 copy. We further showed that wild-type Notch3ECD co-aggregated with mutant Notch3ECD and that elimination of one copy of wild-type Notch3 in TgNotch3R169C mice was sufficient to attenuate Notch3ECD accumulation and arterial pathology. Importantly, RNA sequencing revealed no substantial change in the expression of Notch3-regulated genes in TgNotch3R169C brain arteries. Collectively, our results provide compelling evidence that Notch3ECD accumulation, involving mutant and wild-type NOTCH3, and not aberrant NOTCH3 signaling, is the key driver of arterial SMC loss in CADASIL, thus identifying NOTCH3-lowering approaches as candidate therapeutic strategies.
