Mapping of the master transcription factor MITF in prostate cancer

ABSTRACT: “Mi” transcription family members such as TFE3 and TFEB, participate in the pathogenesis of a subgroup of renal cell carcinomas, whereas MITF is key in melanocyte development and also contributes to melanoma, behaving as an oncogene when amplified and facilitating tumor invasiveness and therapy resistance when MITF levels are low. In addition, MITF plays a role in the survival and growth of clear cell sarcoma and pancreatic cancer. In prostate cancer MITF through the regulation of the heat-shock protein CRYAB has been suggested to suppress tumor initiation. However, the role of MITF in advanced therapy resistant lethal stages of the disease remains unknown. To gain insight into the gene network regulated by MITF in prostate cancer, we mapped MITF genomewide in a human prostate cancer cell line (22Rv1) by chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by ultra high-throughput sequencing. This analysis revealed the genomewide locations of MITF in prostate cancer, including the promoter of eIF3B which we further functionally validated through ChIP-PCR and luciferase reporter assays. We propose that the master regulator MITF by regulating a distinct gene network may play key roles in suppressing lethal prostate cancer pathogenesis.

eIF3B CLIP-sequencing in prostate cancer

Project description:The role of eIF3B in advanced therapy resistant lethal stages of prostate cancer remains unknown. To gain insight into how eIF3B regulates the translation of specific mRNAs we performed Genome-wide eIF3B enhanced cross-linking immunoprecipitation sequencing (eCLIP-seq). this analysis showed specialized binding to a UC-rich motif present in subsets of 5’-UTRs. Indeed, translation of the androgen receptor (AR) and major histocompatibility complex I (MHC-I) through this motif are sensitive to eIF3B amount. These results suggest that eIF3B by regulating specific mRNA translation may play key role in the pathogenesis of lethal prostate cancer.

Role of MITF in advanced lethal prostate cancer

Project description:Great efforts have been made to identify key molecular aberrations that sustain growth and confer resistance to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in advanced prostate cancer (PC), and yet PC remains a lethal disease. Recent years have witnessed the discovery of several master regulator transcription factors that enhance lethal PC aggressiveness and provide actionable targets that may improve patient survival. Here we explore the role of the microphthalmia transcription factor (MITF) in lethal prostate cancer. To identify the mechanisms through which MITF mododulates prostate cancer aggressiveness, we knock-down MITF in three prostate cancer cell lines to identify the MITF regulated effector gene network contributing to lethal prostate cancer. Methods: We compared global transcription of three prostate cancer cell lines transduced with a siRNA control and 2 siRNAs targetting MITF by RNAseq. Results: RNA-seq of MITF knockdown prostate cancer cells uncovered a trasncriptional network of MITF regulated genes Conclusions: MITF regulates a discrette gene network that contributes to prostate cancer aggressiveness

Integrative analysis of transcriptomics and clinical data uncovers the tumorsuppressive activity of MITF in prostate cancer

Project description:The dysregulation of gene expression is an enabling hallmark of cancer. Computational analysis of transcriptomics data from human cancer specimens, complemented with exhaustive clinical annotation, provides an opportunity to identify core regulators of the tumorigenic process. Here we exploit well-annotated clinical datasets of prostate cancer for the discovery of transcriptional regulators relevant to prostate cancer. Following this rationale, we identify Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) as a prostate tumor suppressor among a subset of transcription factors. Importantly, we further interrogate transcriptomics and clinical data to refine MITF perturbation-based empirical assays and unveil Crystallin Alpha B (CRYAB) as an unprecedented direct target of the transcription factor that is, at least in part, responsible for its tumor-suppressive activity in prostate cancer. This evidence was supported by the enhanced prognostic potential of a signature based on the concomitant alteration of MITF and CRYAB in prostate cancer patients. In sum, our study provides proof-of-concept evidence of the potential of the bioinformatics screen of publicly available cancer patient databases as discovery platforms, and demonstrates that the MITF-CRYAB axis controls prostate cancer biology.

Phospo-proteomic profiling of Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer

Project description:The integration of diverse ‘omic’ datasets will increase our understanding of the key signaling pathways that drive disease. Here, we used clinical tissue cohorts corresponding to lethal metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) obtained at rapid autopsy to integrate mutational, transcriptomic, and phosphoproteomic datasets for pathway analysis. Using Tied Diffusion through Interacting Events (TieDIE), we integrated differentially expressed transcriptional master regulators, functionally mutated genes, and differentially ‘activated’ kinases in CRPC tissues to synthesize a robust signaling network consisting of pathways with known and novel gene interactions. For 6 individual CRPC patients for which we had transcriptomic and phosphoproteomic data we observed distinct pathway activation states for each patient profile. In one patient, the activated pathways were strikingly similar to a prostate cancer cell line, 22Rv1, providing us with a good pre-clinical model to test targeted, combination therapies. In all, synthesis of multiple ‘omic’ datasets revealed a plethora of pathway information suitable for targeted therapies in lethal prostate cancer.

Essential role of microphthalmia transcription factor for DNA replication, mitosis and genomic stability in melanoma

Project description:Malignant melanoma is an aggressive cancer known for its notorious resistance to most current therapies. The basic helix-loop-helix microphthalmia transcription factor (MITF) is the master regulator determining the identity and properties of the melanocyte lineage, and is regarded as a lineage-specific ‘oncogene’ that has a critical role in the pathogenesis of melanoma. MITF promotes melanoma cell proliferation, whereas sustained supression of MITF expression leads to senescence. By combining chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled to high throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) and RNA sequen- cing analyses, we show that MITF directly regulates a set of genes required for DNA replication, repair and mitosis. Our results reveal how loss of MITF regulates mitotic fidelity, and through defective replication and repair induces DNA damage, ultimately ending in cellular senescence. These findings reveal a lineage-specific control of DNA replication and mitosis by MITF, providing new avenues for therapeutic intervention in melanoma. The identification of MITF-binding sites and gene- regulatory networks establish a framework for under- standing oncogenic basic helix-loop-helix factors such as N-myc or TFE3 in other cancers. 4 samples corresponding to genomic occupancy profiling of MITF (Cl8), PolII (501Mel), H3K4me3 501Mel). Anti-HA ChIP-seq on untagged cell line (501Mel) was used as a control.
