Project description:Dynamic interaction between prostate cancer and the bone microenvironment is a major contributor to metastasis of prostate cancer to bone. In this study we utilized an in-vitro co-culture model of PC3 prostate cancer cells and osteoblasts followed by microarray based gene expression profiling to identify previously unrecognized prostate cancer-bone microenvironment interactions. Factors secreted by PC3 cells resulted in the up-regulation of many genes in osteoblasts associated with bone metabolism and cancer metastasis, including Mmp13, Il-6 and Tgfb2, and down-regulation of Wnt inhibitor Sost. To determine whether altered Sost expression in the bone microenvironment has an effect on prostate cancer metastasis, we co-cultured PC3 cells with Sost knockout (SostKO) osteoblasts and wildtype (WT) osteoblasts and identified several genes differentially regulated between PC3-SostKO osteoblast co-cultures and PC3-WT osteoblast co-cultures. Co-culturing PC3 cells with WT osteoblasts up-regulated cancer-associated long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) MALAT1 in PC3 cells. MALAT1 expression was further enhanced when PC3 cells were co-cultured with SostKO osteoblasts and treatment with recombinant Sost down-regulated MALAT1 expression in these cells. Our results suggest that reduced Sost expression in the tumor microenvironment may promote bone metastasis by up-regulating MALAT1 in prostate cancer.

Project description:We previously found that KLF4, a gene highly expressed in adult prostate stem cells, blocks the progression of indolent intraepithelial prostatic lesions into aggressive and rapidly growing tumors. To test whether this anti-cancer effect of KLF4 can also prevent prostate cancer-induced damage to the bone, we ablated KLF4 in human PC3 prostate cancer cells using CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing and compared their behavior to null cells transduced with a DOX inducible KLF4 expression system. KLF4 re-expression inhibited growth of PC3 null cells in monolayer and as colonies in soft agar in a dose-dependent manner. When injected into the mouse femurs, PC3 null cells proliferated rapidly, forming very large, invasive and osteolytic tumors. Induction of KLF4 expression in PC3 null cells immediately after their intra-femoral inoculation blocked the development of tumors while preserving the normal bone architecture. KLF4 re-expression in established PC3 bone tumors inhibited osteolytic effects of PC3 null cells, preventing bone fractures and inducing a significant osteogenic response with regions of new bone formation. Transcriptome analyses of PC3 cells with no or high KLF4 expression revealed KLF4-dependent osteolytic or osteogenic transcriptional programs, respectively. Importantly, these KLF4-dependent functions significantly overlapped with metastatic prostate cancers in patients.

Project description:Disseminated prostate cancer cells colonize the skeleton to progress into macroscopic lesions only if they successfully adapt to the bone microenvironment. We previously reported that the ability of prostate cancer cells to generate skeletal tumors in animal models correlated with the expression of the alpha-receptor for Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PDGFRa). In this study we aimed to identify PDGFRa-regulated genes responsible for the acquisition of a bone-metastatic prostate phenotype. We performed genome-wide expression comparative analyses of human prostate cancer cell lines that differ for PDGFRa expression and propensity to establish tumors in the skeleton of animal models. We investigated the genes that were differentially regulated in the highly bone-metastatic PC3-ML cells and their low-metastatic counterpart PC3-N cells, and the genes differentially regulated between PC3-N and PC3-N with overexpression of PDGFRa (PC3NRa). We have previously shown that DU-145 cells lack PDGFRa and fail to survive longer than three days as disseminated tumor cells after homing to the mouse bone marrow. Interestingly, and in contrast to PC3-N cells, the exogenous expression of PDGFRa did not promote metastatic bone-tropism of DU-145 cells in our model. Thus, we examined the genes that were differentially regulated between DU-145 and DU-145(Ra) and excluded them from our candidate genes. Finally, to refine our findings and compensate for PC3 and DU-145 genetic disparity, we performed a comparative analysis of the genes differentially regulated between two bone metastatic single-cell progenies that were derived from PC3-ML cells.

Seven human prostate cancer cell lines were analyzed in total for this study. Each cell line was analyzed in duplicate from two different passages in culture.

Project description:This study investigates the interactions between two enzymes involved in regulating the protein tau’s PTMs: the kinase MARK2 and the acetyltransferase CBP. Western blot analysis revealed that CBP-mediated acetylation was increased in the absence of MARK2, indicating a possible negative feedback loop, where MARK2 is inhibiting CBP acetylation. In contrast, inactive MARK2 (MARK2-KR) was strongly acetylated in the presence of acetyl-CBP, consistent with the preferential CBP binding and targeting of the inactive MARK2 conformation. To determine the specific lysine residues in MARK2 that are subject to acetylation in the presence of CBP, we immunopurified MARK2-KR alone (as a control) and CBP-acetylated MARK2-KR. We analyzed the immunopurified MARK2-KR by mass spectrometry-based proteomics to determine differential acetyl and phosphorylation sites.

Project description:The estrogen receptor (ER)β1 is successively lost during cancer progression, whereas its splice variant, ERβ2, is expressed in advanced prostate cancer. The latter form of cancer often metastasizes to bone, and we wanted to investigate whether the loss of ERβ1 and/or the expression of ERβ2 affect such signaling pathways in prostate cancer. Using PC3 and 22Rv1 prostate cancer cell lines that stably express ERβ1 or ERβ2, we found that the ERβ variants differentially regulate genes known to affect tumor behavior. We found that ERβ1 repressed the expression of the bone metastasis regulator Runx2 in PC3 cells. By contrast, RUNX2 expression was up-regulated at the mRNA level by ERβ2 in PC3 cells, whereas Slug was up-regulated by ERβ2 in both PC3 and 22Rv1 cells. In addition, the expression of Twist1, a factor whose expression strongly correlates with high Gleason grade prostate carcinoma, was increased by ERβ2. In agreement with the increased Twist1 expression, we found increased expression of Dickkopf homolog 1; Dickkopf homolog 1 is a factor that has been shown to increase the RANK ligand/osteoprotegerin ratio and enhance osteoclastogenesis, indicating that the expression of ERβ2 can cause osteolytic cancer. Furthermore, we found that only ERβ1 inhibited proliferation, whereas ERβ2 increased proliferation. The expression of the proliferation markers Cyclin E, c-Myc, and p45(Skp2) was differentially affected by ERβ1 and ERβ2 expression. In addition, nuclear β-catenin protein and its mRNA levels were reduced by ERβ1 expression. In conclusion, we found that ERβ1 inhibited proliferation and factors known to be involved in bone metastasis, whereas ERβ2 increased proliferation and up-regulated factors involved in bone metastasis. Thus, in prostate cancer cells, ERβ2 has oncogenic abilities that are in strong contrast to the tumor-suppressing effects of ERβ1.

Project description:KLF5 is a basic transcription factor that regulates multiple biological processes, but its function in tumorigenesis appears contradictory in the current literature, with some studies showing tumor suppressor activity and others showing tumor promoting activity. In this study, we examined the function of Klf5 in prostatic tumorigenesis using mice with prostate specific deletion of Klf5 and Pten, both of which are frequently deleted in human prostate cancer. Histological and molecular analyses demonstrated that when one Pten allele was deleted, which causes mouse intraepithelial neoplasia (mPIN), Klf5 deletion accelerated the emergence and progression of mPIN. When both Pten alleles were deleted, which causes prostate cancer, Klf5 deletion promoted tumor growth and caused more severe morphological and molecular alterations, and homozygous deletion of Klf5 was more effective than hemizygous deletion. Unexpectedly, while Klf5 deletion clearly promoted tumorigenesis in luminal cells, it actually diminished the numbers of Ck5-positive basal cells in the Pten-null tumors. Klf5 deletion also increased the cell proliferation rate in tumors with Pten deletion, which involved extensive activation of the PI3K/AKT and MAPK mitogenic signaling pathways and inactivation of the p15 cell cycle inhibitor. Global gene expression and pathway analyses demonstrated that multiple mechanisms could be responsible for the tumor promoting effect of Klf5 deletion, We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression of Klf5-wildtype and Klf5-null mouse dorsal prostates under Pten-null context to figure out the differential expression profiling underlying tumorigenesis 4 Klf5-wildtype and 4 Klf5-null mouse (6 months age) dorsal prostates under Pten-null context were used for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix mouse st 1.0 array

Project description:The estrogen receptor (ER)M-NM-21 is successively lost during cancer progression, whereas its splice variant, ERM-NM-22, is expressed in advanced prostate cancer. The latter form of cancer often metastasizes to bone, and we wanted to investigate whether the loss of ERM-NM-21 and/or the expression of ERM-NM-22 affect such signaling pathways in prostate cancer. Using PC3 and 22Rv1 prostate cancer cell lines that stably express ERM-NM-21 or ERM-NM-22, we found that the ERM-NM-2 variants differentially regulate genes known to affect tumor behavior. We found that ERM-NM-21 repressed the expression of the bone metastasis regulator Runx2 in PC3 cells. By contrast, RUNX2 expression was up-regulated at the mRNA level by ERM-NM-22 in PC3 cells, whereas Slug was up-regulated by ERM-NM-22 in both PC3 and 22Rv1 cells. In addition, the expression of Twist1, a factor whose expression strongly correlates with high Gleason grade prostate carcinoma, was increased by ERM-NM-22. In agreement with the increased Twist1 expression, we found increased expression of Dickkopf homolog 1; Dickkopf homolog 1 is a factor that has been shown to increase the RANK ligand/osteoprotegerin ratio and enhance osteoclastogenesis, indicating that the expression of ERM-NM-22 can cause osteolytic cancer.

The expression of the proliferation markers Cyclin E, c-Myc, and p45(Skp2) was differentially affected by ERM-NM-21 and ERM-NM-22 expression. In addition, nuclear M-NM-2-catenin protein and its mRNA levels were reduced by ERM-NM-21 expression. In conclusion, we found that ERM-NM-21 inhibited proliferation and factors known to be involved in bone metastasis, whereas ERM-NM-22 increased proliferation and up-regulated factors involved in bone metastasis. Thus, in prostate cancer cells, ERM-NM-22 has oncogenic abilities that are in strong contrast to the tumor-suppressing effects of ERM-NM-21. The GFP vs. ERbeta1 comparison was carried out with three replicate dye-swaps, six arrays total. The GFP vs. ERbeta2 comparison was carried out with two replicate dye-swaps, four arrays total.
