Project description:A number of homeobox genes have been found to be implicated in the development of various cancers. Here, we investigated the role of engrailed 2 (EN2), a member of the homeobox gene superfamily, in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

Project description:Deregulations in transcription factors lead to abnormal development, like in leukaemias, where chromosomal abnormalities either create chimeric TFs or alter the expression of the existing ones. The characterization of the precise functions of the TFs that regulate blood formation is essential to understand how these mechanisms are altered in malignancies. We have found that Engrailed-2 becomes methylated in the progression to blast crises of T-cell phenotype in chronic myelogenous leukaemia (CML) in human samples. Subsequently we found that En2 is expressed during T-cell development in the mouse and in humans. Engrailed-2 plays an essential role in central nervous system development but it has not been shown to participate in haematopoiesis. Many TFs have been found to play essential functions both in nervous system and blood development, thus making En2 a likely candidate to be involved in haematopoiesis. We have studied haematopoiesis of wild-type vs. En2 knockout mice. To increase our understanding of the possible molecular role(s) of En2 during T cell development, we have compared by microarray analysis the gene expression patterns of En2-/- versus WT sorted DP thymocytes and also CD8+ splenocytes (the two populations in which we had detected En2 expression).

Project description:Engrailed homeoproteins are expressed in adult dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra. In Engrailed1 heterozygous mice, these neurons start dying at 6 weeks, are more sensitive to oxidative stress and progressively develop traits similar to those observed following an acute and strong oxidative stress inflected to wild-type neurons. These changes include DNA strand breaks and the modification (intensity and distribution) of several nuclear and nucleolar heterochromatin marks. Engrailed1 and Engrailed2 are biochemically equivalent transducing proteins previously used to antagonize dopaminergic neuron death in Engrailed heterozygous mice and in mouse models of Parkinson disease. Accordingly, we show that, following an acute oxidative stress, a single Engrailed2 injection restores all nuclear and nucleolar heterochromatin marks, decreases the number of DNA strand breaks and protects dopaminergic neurons against apoptosis. RNA-seq data for differentially expressed genes in the SNpc of En1+/- mice, En2 infused mice and 6-OHDA/En2 injection experiments.

Project description:To investigate whether Cebpa-L1-AD-En2 produces a marked effect on adipogenesis in mouse adipose tissue, we injected the dCas9-KARB-En2 lentiviral system (iWAT_Cebpa-En2 group) or dCas9-KRAB-GFP (Control group) directly into mouse inguinal white adipose tissue (iWAT). We conducted RNA-seq analysis on the iWAT of iWAT-En2 group mice and control group mice at 13 weeks of age

Project description:Homeobox genes comprise a family of regulatory genes that contain a common homeobox domain and act as transcription factors. Changes in the expression of homeobox genes are observed in many cancers, including leukaemia, colon, skin, prostate, breast, and ovarian cancers. Recent studies indicate that homeobox A5 (HOXA5) may serve as a tumour suppressor gene in breast cells. However, the precise role of HOXA5 in lung cancer remains unclear. Using microarrays and an invasion/metastasis lung adenocarcinoma cell line model, we showed that the expression of HOXA5 is negatively correlated with cancer cell invasion ability. The ectopic expression of HOXA5 in highly invasive cancer cells suppressed cell migration, invasion, and filopodia formation in vitro and inhibited metastatic potential in vivo. The knockdown of HOXA5 expression via a HOXA5-specific siRNA was able to promote the invasiveness of lung cancer cells. Furthermore, HOXA5 expression was associated with improved overall survival and disease-free survival in non-small cell lung cancer patients with wild-type EGFR (P = 0.0199 and 0.0345, respectively). Genome-wide transcriptome and pathway analyses indicated that these effects of HOXA5 may be associated with the regulation of cytoskeletal remodelling. In summary, our studies provide new insights into how HOXA5 may contribute to the suppression of metastasis in lung cancer. We used microarrays to profile the global gene expression of HOXA5-overexpressing cells compared with mock control cells and identified the pathways involved in HOXA5-induced biofunctional alterations.

Project description:The piggyBac transposon system is widely used for biotechnology and genome engineering and is the founding member of a large superfamily of piggyBac-like elements. We investigated the role in transpositon of the nonconserved N-terminus in the piggyBac transposase, including the impact of predicted casein kinase phosphorylation sites within it.

Project description:The Estrogen Receptor beta (ERβ), is a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily of trancriptional regulators, with oncosuppressive activities, antagonizing hormone-induced carcinogenesis and inhibiting growth and oncogenic functions in breast cancers (BCs). It is able to exert specific biological functions also in the absence of estrogen stimuli. Interaction proteomics coupled to mass spectrometry (MS) was applied to deeply characterize the nuclear interactors cooperating with unliganded ERβ and the role of RNA in mediating these iteractions.
