Angioplasty induces epigenomic remodeling in injured arteries

ABSTRACT: Neointimal hyperplasia (IH) is a primary etiology of stenotic vascular diseases. It is perpetuated principally by smooth muscle cell proliferation. Epigenome-scale studies concerning IH have been confined to in vitro models, and the IH-underlying epigenetic mechanisms remain poorly understood. The current study has integrated information from in vivo epigenomic mapping, conditional knockout, gene transfer and pharmacology in rodent models of IH. The data from injured (IH-prone) rat arteries revealed a surge of genomewide occupancy by H3K27me3, a gene repression mark. This was unexpected in the traditional view of prevailing post-injury gene activation rather than repression. Further analysis illustrated a shift of H3K27me3 enrichment to anti-proliferative genes, from pro-proliferative genes where gene activation mark H3K27ac instead accumulated. In accordance, H3K27ac and its reader BRD4 co-enriched at Ezh2 governing its expression. Moreover, H3K27me3 writer EZH2 positively regulated another recently identified pro-IH chromatin modulator UHRF1. Thus, results unravel injury-induced loci-specific H3K27me3 redistribution in the epigenomic landscape entailing BRD4->EZH2->UHRF1 hierarchical regulations, and may guide translation to treat IH given that these players are pharmaceutical targets.

EZH2-mediated H3K27me3 targets transcriptional circuits of neuronal differentiation ChIP-seq

Project description:Our work describes novel roles for EZH2 in the specification of cortical neurons. Previous reports established the current model of EZH2-mediated control of neuronal progenitors differentiation through the regulation of their proliferation and developmental transitions. We built on these findings and studied the role of EZH2 in post-mitotic glutamatergic neurons differentiated from embryonic stem cells, a particularly relevant cell type where the impact of its regulation has thus far remained elusive. Briefly, our key results can be summarized as follows: 1. The conditional deletion of EZH2 at the moment of cell cycle exit in neural progenitors allowed us to study the role of EZH2 selectively in post-mitotic glutamatergic neurons. 2. Time course transcriptomic and epigenomic analyses of H3K27me3 in absence of EZH2 revealed a significant dysregulation of transcriptional networks affecting synaptic plasticity, in particular long term depression. 3. These analyses also revealed potential novel roles of EZH2 in controlling the regulation between the glutamatergic signature and the GABAergic one, suggesting a mechanism entailing failure of Prdm13 repression, a histone methyltransferase with a known role in determining GABAergic neurons specification.

Therapeutic Targeting of EZH2 and BET BRD4 in Pediatric Rhabdoid Tumor [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:We proved that histone H3K27me3 and H3K27ac were elevated in AT/RT cells and distributed in distinct chromatin regions to regulate specific gene expression and to promote AT/RT growth. Targeting EZH2 and BRD4 activity is therefore a potential combination therapy for AT/RT.

ChIP-seq-based analysis of differential K27me3 coverage in neuroblastoma cell lines treated with epigenetic drugs

Project description:The impact of drugs inhibiting DNA methylation (5-aza-2'-deoxycytodine, DAC) and EZH2 (EPZ-6438) on H3K27me3 coverage was analyzed in two neuroblastoma cell lines. Parallel analyses investigated associated changes in RNA expression and DNA methylation. The neuroblastoma cell lines Be(2)-C and IMR5-75 were treated with a combination of DAC and EPZ-6438. Controls were treated with solvent (DMSO). H3K27me3 ChIP seq was done to investigate treatment-related changes of this mark. In addition, H3K4me3 and H3K27ac ChIP seq was done in DMSO treated samples to identify putative regulatory regions.

EZH2 Reduction Is an Essential Mechanoresponse for the Maintenance of Super-enhancer Polarization

Project description:Despite the ubiquitous mechanical cues at both spatial and temporal dimensions, cell identities and functions are largely immune to the everchanging mechanical stimuli. To understand the molecular basis of this epigenetic stability, we interrogated compressive force elicited transcriptomic changes in mesenchymal stem cells purified from human periodontal ligament (PDLSCs), and identified H3K27me3 and E2F signatures populated within up- and weakly down-regulated genes respectively. Consistently, expressions of several E2F family transcription factors and EZH2, as core methyltransferase for H3K27me3, decreased in response to mechanical stress, which were attributed to force induced redistribution of RB from nucleoplasm to lamina. Importantly, although epigenomic analysis on H3K27me3 landscape only demonstrated correlating changes at one group of mechanoresponsive genes, we observed a genome-wide destabilization of super-enhancers along with aberrant EZH2 retention. These super-enhancers were tightly bounded by H3K27me3 domain on one side and exhibited attenuating H3K27ac deposition and flattening H3K27ac peaks after force exposure, analogous to increased H3K27ac entropy or decreased H3K27ac polarization. Interference of force induced EZH2 reduction could drive nuclear actin filaments dependent collision between EZH2 and super-enhancers and functionally compromise the multipotency of PDLSC following mechanical stress. These findings together unveil a specific contribution of EZH2 reduction for maintenance of super-enhancer stability and cell identity in mechanoresponse.

Loss of the Histone Methyltransferase EZH2 induces Resistance to Multiple Drugs in Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Project description:Poor outcome of AML patients is closely related with therapy failure or relapse after initial response. The underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. In this study we discovered the histone methyltransferase EZH2 as a novel marker for response to chemotherapy and patients` survival. Protein levels of EZH2 and subsequently H3K27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) are reduced in chemoresistant AML cells. To analyze which genomic regions were affected by the loss of EZH2 and reduced H3K27me3 mark we performed Chromatin Immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput DNA sequencing (ChIP-Seq). ChIP-Seq for the H3K27me3 repressive mark revealed genome-wide differences between sensitive (MV4-11) and resistant (MV4-11R) cells. Overall, 4699 genomic regions showed a more than 1.5 fold reduction of H3K27me3 around TSS ±5kb in MV4-11R compared to MV4-11cells. Promoter regions of HOX genes, classical targets of PRC2, revealed drastically reduced H3K27me3 enrichment in the MV4-11R cells. The H3K27me3 level at the transcriptional start site (TSS) of the ABCC1 promoter was decreased in resistant compared to sensitive cells (Fig. 6D) with increased levels of H3K4me3 and H3K27ac. As expected, we found H3K27me3 enrichments to be inversely correlated with gene expression whereas histone modifications H3K4me3 and H3K27ac, known as markers for active genes, positively correlated with gene expression in our analysis. Differentially regulated genes were characterized to be involved in protein modification/phosphorylation pathways and signaling and apoptosis.

CUT&RUN profiling of histone H3K27ac and H3K27me3 localization after pharmacological inhibition of EZH2 and BET proteins

Project description:NUT carcinoma (NC), an aggressive carcinoma, is driven by the BRD4-NUT fusion oncoprotein. BRD4, a BET protein, binds to chromatin through its two bromodomains, and when fused to NUT forms very large super-enhancers, termed megadomains. Targeting BRD4-NUT with BET bromodomain inhibitors (BETi) are a promising treatment, but limited as monotherapy. To identify additional dependencies in NC, we performed a genetic rescue screen in NC cells depleted of BRD4-NUT and identified EZH2 as a top correlated hit. Indeed, inhibition of EZH2 using the clinical compound, tazemetostat (taz), potently blocked growth of NC cells, and when combined with BETi was highly synergistic. Epigenetic and transcriptomic analysis revealed that taz reversed the EZH2-specific H3K27me3 silencing mark, and restored expression of multiple tumor suppressor genes while having no effect on megadomain-associated genes. CDKN2A was identified as the only amongst all taz-derepressed genes to confer resistance to taz in a CRISPR-CAS9 screen. In pre-clinical models, combined taz and BETi synergistically blocked growth and prolonged survival of NC-xenografted mice, with all mice cured in one cohort.
