Canonical Wnt Induces Focal Adhesion and Integrin Beta-1 Endocytosis

ABSTRACT: Activation of the Wnt pathway is at the core of many human cancers. During canonical Wnt signaling, the Lrp6 and Frizzled receptors bind to the Wnt growth factor, which leads to the complex being endocytosed. Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3 (GSK3), Dishevelled (Dvl), and Axin are sequestered inside the intraluminal vesicles of late endosomes, known as multivesicular bodies (MVBs). Here we present experiments showing that Wnt causes the endocytosis of focal adhesion (FA) proteins and depletion of Integrin β 1 (ITGβ1) from the cell surface. FAs and integrins provide link the cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix. Wnt-induced macropinocytosis of the plasma membrane caused ITGβ1 depletion and was accompanied by striking changes in the actin cytoskeleton. In situ protease protection assays in cultured cells showed that ITGβ1 was sequestered within membrane-bounded organelles that corresponded to Wnt-induced MVBs containing GSK3 and focal adhesion-associated proteins. An in vivo model using Xenopus embryos dorsalized by Wnt8 mRNA showed that ITGβ1 depletion decreased Wnt signaling. The cross-talk between Wnt signaling, membrane trafficking, and focal adhesions should be relevant to human cancer and cell biology.

MITF drives endolysosomal biogenesis and potentiates Wnt signaling in melanoma cells

Project description:Canonical Wnt signaling plays an important role in development and disease, regulating transcription of target genes and stabilizing many proteins phosphorylated by Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3 (GSK3). We observed that the MiT family of transcription factors, which includes the melanoma oncogene MITF and the lysosomal master regulator TFEB, had the highest phylogenetic conservation of three consecutive putative GSK3 phosphorylation sites in animal proteomes. This prompted us to examine the relationship between MITF, endolysosomal biogenesis and Wnt signaling. Here we report that MITF expression levels correlated with the expression of a large subset of lysosomal genes in melanoma cell lines. MITF expression in the Tetracycline-inducible C32 melanoma model caused a marked increase in vesicular structures, and increased expression of late endosomal proteins such as Rab7, LAMP1, and CD63. These late endosomes were not functional lysosomes as they were less active in proteolysis, yet were able to concentrate Axin1, phospho-LRP6, phospho-β-Catenin, and GSK3 in the presence of Wnt ligands. This relocalization significantly enhanced Wnt signaling by increasing the number of multivesicular bodies (MVBs) into which the Wnt signalosome/destruction complex becomes localized upon Wnt signaling. We also show that the MITF protein was stabilized by Wnt signaling, through the novel C-terminal GSK3 phosphorylations identified here. MITF stabilization caused an increase in MVB biosynthesis, which in turn increased Wnt signaling, generating a positive feed-back loop that may function during the proliferative stages of melanoma. The results underscore the importance of misregulated endolysosomal biogenesis in Wnt signaling and cancer. Expression of selected Lysosomal genes and CLEAR element plus MITF were compared in 51 melanoma cell lines to a mixed reference pool containing equal amounts of 47 melanoma cell lines.

Microarray analysis of molecular pathways and candidate genes between dorsal and leg Skin in Chicken

Project description:The dorsal and leg skin showed significant difference in skin thickness, feather follicle density and size.These traits are important characters of slaughtered chicken appearance. Global gene expression profiling was conducted in dorsal and leg skin of chickens, using the Agilent Chicken Gene Expression Chip. A total of 676 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) with at least 2-fold differences were identified (P < 0.05).GO analysis showed that DEGs were significantly involved in cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptotic, cell-cell adhesion and Wnt signaling pathway; KEGG pathway analyses found that DEGs were significantly mapped into ECM-receptor interaction, focal adhesion, Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs), regulation of actin cytoskeleton and Hedgehog signaling pathway.

Expression data from ERK1/2 null endothelial cells

Project description:Angiogenesis is a complex process orchestrated by both growth factors and cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix and is initiated by focal degradation of the vascular basement membrane with subsequent migration and proliferation of endothelial cells (EC). The Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK pathway is critical for EC function during angiogensis. Although in vitro studies implicate ERK1 and ERK2 in EC survival, their precise role in EC function in vivo remains poorly defined. Cre/loxP technology was used to inactivate Erk1 and Erk2 in EC during murine development, resulting in embryonic lethality due to a drastic reduction in angiogenesis. The angiogenic defect was linked to diminished EC proliferation and migration, but not to increased cell apoptosis. Expression of key cell cycle regulators was diminished in the double knockout cells. In addition, both Paxillin and Focal Adhesion Kinase were expressed at lower levels and failed to correctly localize to the cell membrane in EC lacking Erk1 and Erk2, leading to defects in the organization of the cytoskeleton and in cell motility. The results demonstrate that ERK1 and ERK2 coordinate cell proliferation and migration during angiogenesis. Lentivirus infected cells to generate ERK1/2 WT and ERK1/2 DKO endothelial cells were cultured, RNA was extracted and Affymetrix gene expression arrays were performed.

Mechanosensitive ion channel regulates tissue stiffening to promote glioma aggression

Project description:Tissue stiffening is a physical hallmark of solid tumor. In our study, we found that the mechanosensitive ion channel PIEZO1 can be tumor cells force sensor and transducer that regulate the altered tissue mechanics. We examined the transcriptional changes modulated by depletion of PIEZO1 in two human GBM cell lines. We found that with PIEZO1 KD, the components involved in ECM organization, focal adhesion formation, cytoskeleton, and mitosis, which contribute to tissue stiffness, are down-regulated.

Asparaginase and GSK3A inhibitor treatment of CCRF-CEM cells

Project description:Resistance to asparaginase, an antileukemic enzyme that depletes asparagine, is a common clinical problem. Using a genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screen, we found a synthetic lethal interaction between Wnt pathway activation and asparaginase in acute leukemias resistant to this enzyme. Wnt pathway activation induced asparaginase sensitivity in distinct treatment-resistant subtypes of acute leukemia, but not in normal hematopoietic progenitors. Sensitization to asparaginase was mediated by Wnt-dependent stabilization of proteins (Wnt/STOP), which inhibits GSK3-dependent protein ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation, a catabolic source of asparagine. Inhibiting the alpha isoform of GSK3 phenocopied this effect, and pharmacologic GSK3 inhibition profoundly sensitized drug-resistant leukemias to asparaginase. Our findings provide a molecular rationale for activation of Wnt/STOP signaling to improve the therapeutic index of asparaginase. To gain further insights into mechanisms of cytotoxicity of this combination, we applied unbiased mass spectrometry proteomics to CCRF-CEM cells, a human T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia cell line, treated with vehicle, asparaginase alone, the GSK3 inhibitor BRD0705 (which phenocopies Wnt/STOP pathway activation), or the combination of asparaginase and BRD0705.
