Project description:Dlx3 over-expression in mouse embryonic fibroblasts changed the expression level of numerous genes involved in osteogenesis and embryonic stem cell-related pathways as revealed by microarray analysis. From the list of Dlx3 modulated genes we focused our attention on the study of two candidates, Lifr and Chrdl1. Chromatin immunoprecipitation demonstrated the recruitment of Dlx3 transcription factor to the promoters of Lifr and Chrdl1, and luciferase assays confirmed the role of Dlx3 in the regulation of Lifr expression. Over-expression of Dlx3 in mouse embryonic stem cells stimulated Lifr and Chrdl1 expression and inhibited expression of Id proteins and Bmp4. We show that Dlx3 increases the expression of both soluble and transmembrane forms of Lifr. Soluble Lifr may regulate extracellular Lif levels via solution binding, while transmembrane Lifr mediates the signal transduction pathway. The data suggests that Dlx3 may be involved in stem cell differentiation in a dosage dependent way through its interaction with Lifr and with Chrdl1, a known antagonist of Bmp4. We speculate that Dlx3 may also be involved in osteoblast differentiation through interactions involving Lifr, Bmp, and Id proteins and signaling via the JAK/STAT and MAPK pathways. In summary, our data suggests that Dlx3 proteins play a significant role in a highly tuned network in early embryogenesis.

Project description:The poly(rC) binding protein 1 gene (PCBP1) encodes the heterogenous nuclear ribonucleoprotein E1 (hnRNPE1), a nucleic acid binding protein that plays a tumor-suppressive role in mammary epithelium by regulating phenotypic plasticity and cell fate. Following loss of PCBP1 function, the FAM3C gene (encoding the Interleukin-like EMT inducer, or “ILEI” protein) and the leukemia inhibitory factor receptor (LIFR) gene are upregulated. Interaction between FAM3C and LIFR in the extracellular space induces phosphorylation of the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (pSTAT3). The overexpression and/or hyperactivity of STAT3 has been detected in 40% of breast cancer cases and is associated with poor prognosis. Herein, we characterize feed-forward regulation of LIFR expression in response to FAM3C/LIFR/pSTAT3 signaling in mammary epithelial cells, and show that PCBP1 upregulates LIFR transcription through FAM3C, involving activity at the LIFR promoter. Additionally, our bioinformatic analysis reveals a signature of transcriptional regulation associated with FAM3C/LIFR interaction and identifies the TWIST1 transcription factor as a downstream effector that participates in maintenance of LIFR expression. Finally, we characterize the effect of LIFR expression in cell-based experiments that demonstrate promotion of invasion, migration, and breast cancer stem cell (BCSC) self-renewal, consistent with previous studies that link LIFR expression to tumor initiation and metastasis in mammary epithelial cells.

Project description:Ferroptosis is a form of regulated cell death characterized by iron-dependent overaccumulation of lipid peroxides. It can be prevented by cellular mechanisms such as GPX4-mediated elimination of the lipid peroxides at the cost of glutathione (GSH). Since originally being discovered as a property of RAS-mutant cancer cells, ferroptosis has been shown to be regulated by several important oncogenes and tumor suppressors. In particular, LIFR, the receptor of the pleiotropic cytokine LIF, has recently been shown to be required for ferroptosis, as loss of Lifr in mouse liver tumor confers the cells resistance to ferroptosis. In this study, however, we found that the LIFR-targeting drugs, EC330 and EC359, are potent inducers of ferroptosis, thus reflecting an interesting “gain-of-function” effect of EC330/EC359 on LIFR-associated ferroptosis. Treatment of various types of cells with EC330/EC359 causes a rapid nonapoptotic cell death with characteristic morphology of ferroptosis, which can be inhibited by iron chelator (DFO) and lipid ROS scavenger (Fer-1), but not pan-caspase inhibitor (z-VAD-fmk). Consistent with previous observations, the efficiency of EC330/EC359 appears to be correlated with the expression levels of LIF and LIFR. RNA-seq analysis showed that the EC330/EC359 treatment leads to (i) a gene expression profile highly resembling that of RSL3, the GPX4-targeting ferroptosis inducer, and (ii) a specific decrease of expression of a few gene encoding membrane-located proteins, especially those located on the mitochondria (e.g., TOMM6 and COX14), implying defects in cellular/mitochondrial membrane functions. Indeed, transmission electron microscopy imaging of the EC330/EC359-treated cells shows shrunken mitochondria and loss of mitochondrial cristae. EC330/EC359 also decreases the activity of GPX4 in the cells to the level comparable with RSL3; meanwhile, the intracellular level of GSH is also decreased, and thus GPX4 inactivation and GSH depletion may jointly disable the cells to eliminate the toxic lipid peroxides. Lastly, although the STAT3 and AKT signaling pathways downstream of LIFR are inhibited by EC330/EC359, inhibition of these pathways per se can only induce non-ferroptotic cell death, suggesting that the EC330/EC359-induced ferroptosis is independent of these downstream pathways; the LIFR-NFkB-LCN2 axis discovered recently in mouse liver tumor cells might not explain the EC330/EC359-induced ferroptosis either, because LCN2 is not detectable in the herein used cell lines. Taken together, these results reveal an unexpected role of the LIFR-targeting drugs EC330/EC359 as potent inducer of ferroptosis and, in combination with previous studies, suggest that there could be either unknown mechanism for the LIFR-associated ferroptosis or unknown target for EC330/EC359 to effect the ferroptosis induction.

Project description:All except one cytokine of the Interleukin (IL-)6 family share glycoprotein (gp) 130 as the common b receptor chain. Whereas Interleukin (IL-)11 signal via the non-signaling IL-11 receptor (IL-11R) and gp130 homodimers, leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) recruits gp130:LIF receptor (LIFR) heterodimers. Using IL-11 as a framework, we exchange the gp130 binding site III of IL-11 with the LIFR binding site III of LIF. The resulting synthetic cytokimera GIL-11 efficiently recruits the non-natural receptor signaling complex consisting of gp130, IL-11R and LIFR resulting in signal transduction and proliferation of factor-depending Ba/F3 cells. Besides LIF and IL-11, GIL-11 does not activate receptor complexes consisting of gp130:LIFR or gp130:IL-11R, respectively. Human GIL-11 shows cross-reactivity to mouse and rescued IL-6R deficient mice following partial hepatectomy, demonstrating gp130:IL-11R:LIFR signaling efficiently induced liver regeneration. With the development of the cytokimera GIL-11, we devise the functional assembly of the non-natural cytokine receptor complex of gp130:IL-11R:LIFR.

Project description:We measured genome-wide gene expression of embryonic stem cells derived from two different inbred mouse genetic backgrounds. For each genetic background we also conducted an allele swap at SNP rs50454566 upstream of the Lifr gene. We profiled cells from each of the four strains in triplicate (technical replicates). We cultured cells in media with LIF + GSK3-beta inhibitor CHIR99021. Cells remained unfed until harvest, six days later.
