Inducible Astrocytomas in Genetically Engineered Mice: Affymetrix

ABSTRACT: To determine the regulatory pathways necessary for astrocytoma formation within complex adult brain microenvironments, we engineered mice for adult astrocyte-specific disruption of key regulators (pRb, Kras and Pten). Drivers of all astrocytoma grades were identified using CreERTM-inducible alleles. Inactivation of pRb was necessary to initiate grade II disease, and was the only lesion to do so. Additional activation of Kras progressed disease to grade III, while further Pten inactivation facilitated grade IV (glioblastoma) progression. These outcomes were elicited whether somatic events were induced broadly or focally. In vivo inactivation of pRb, which induced astrocyte proliferation and apoptosis, activated the MAPK pathway, while Kras activation and Pten loss triggered PI3K pathways. TRPhet denotes mice with Inhibition of Rb, Over-expression of Kras and Deletion of one Copy of PTEN; TRPnull denotes mice with Inhibition of Rb, Over-expression of Kras and Deletion of both copies of PTEN; TR denotes mice with Inhibition of Rb, Over-expression of Kras.

Hierarchical synergy of Pten, p53 and Rb pathways in high-grade astrocytoma induced in adult brain

Project description:Mutations in the PTEN, TP53 and RB1 pathways are obligate events in the pathogenesis of human glioblastomas, the highest grade of astrocytoma. To investigate synergy between these tumor suppressors in mice, we induced various combinations of compound deletions conditionally in astrocytes and neural precursors in the mature brain. The resulting highly penetrant astrocytomas showed a spectrum of histopathological variation reminiscent of human tumors, and ranged from grade III to grade IV (glioblastoma). Secondary somatic mutations varied depending on the combination of initiating deletions and were relevant to human disease. Receptor tyrosine kinase amplifications were frequent in tumors initiated by combined conditional deletion of Pten and Tp53, but not when Rb, Pten and Tp53 were simultaneously deleted. Multiple mutations within PI3K and Rb pathways were acquired, however, Mapk activation was not consistently detected in astrocytomas. Gene expression profiling revealed striking similarities to previously described human astrocytoma subclasses. A subset of astrocytomas initiated outside of proliferative niches in the adult brain. Gene expression of 8 human brain samples including 2 normal brainstem and 6 brainstem low-grade gliomas were profiled using HG-U133 plus 2 arrays. Gene expression of 38 mouse tumor samples, including 24 Pten;p53 double knockout and 14 Pten;p53;Rb1 triple knockout, were profiled using Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 v2 arrays. Copy number changes of 51 double knockout tumor samples were analysed using Roswell Park Cancer Institute 6.5k BAC arrays. Copy number changes of 21 triple knockout tumor samples were analysed using Agilent mouse genome CGH mocirarray 244A.

Oncogenic alterations in multiple core signaling pathways are required for glioblastoma pathogenesis in vitro and in vivo

Project description:Here, we use a series of genetically-defined murine cortical astrocytes with conditional inactivation of Rb/Pten and activated Kras to systematically investigate the individual and combinatorial roles of these pathways during gliomagenesis. We show that genetic disruption of all three pathways, which frequently occurs in human GBM, leads to maximal in vitro growth, migration, and invasion and produces stem-like transcriptomal profiles similar to the proneural subtype of human GBM. Genetic alterations in all three pathways are also required for efficient tumorigenesis in an orthotopic syngeneic allograft model system in vivo. These findings show that cortical astrocytes can form GBM and identify a potential model for proneural GBM that can be used to test subtype-specific therapies. Transcriptional profiling of transformed murine cortical astrocytes shows correlation between mutated genes, invasive capability, neural lineage, and human astrocytoma/GBM signatures. 10 samples Cortical astrocytes were isolated from neonatal mice (C57BL/6 background strain) and cultured. Cells were infected with adeneoviral-Cre for 6 hours to induce recombination. This resulted in expression of an N-terminal 121 amino acid truncation mutant of SV40 large T antigen (T121, hereafter called T) from the human glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) promoter, which inactivates all three members of the Rb family (Rb, p107, p130) and results in proliferation and defective G1/S ratios. Additionally, cells contained KrasG12D mutant (R) and/or contained either heterozygous or homozygous deletion of Pten (P+/- or P-/-) . Here are 23 cell lines comprising 6 different genotypes. 10 Samples (Sample Title: TR_2, T_1, TRP_null_3, TR_1, TRP_null_4, TRP_het_1, T_2, TRP_null_2, T_3, TRP_null_5) from one batch were combined with the remaining 13 samples to remove batch related effects (see data processing for method).

Pten deficiency cooperates with KrasG12D to activate NFkB pathway promoting the development of malignant pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

Project description:Almost all human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs) are driven by oncogenic Kras and the progression of the disease is characterized by the serial appearance of certain genetic lesions. Mouse models have convincingly shown that Kras mutation induces classical PanIN lesions that can progress to PDAC in the appropriate tumor suppressor background. However, the cooperative mechanism between mutant Kras-dependent signaling surrogates and other oncogenic pathways remains to be fully elucidated in order to devise better therapeutic strategy. Mounting evidence PTEN/PI3K perturbation on PDAC tumorigenesis, we observed frequent PTEN inactivation at both genomic and histopathological levels in primary human PDAC samples. The importance of PTEN/PI3K pathway during the development of PDAC was further supported by genetic studies demonstrating that Pten deficiency in cooperation with Kras activation accelerated the formation of invasive PDAC. Mechanistically, combined Kras mutation and Pten inactivation leads to NFkB activation and subsequent induction of cytokine pathways, accompanied with strong stromal activation and immune cell infiltration. Therefore, PTEN/PI3K pathway dictates the activity of NFkB network and serves as a major surrogate during Kras-mediated pancreatic tumorigenesis. Primary pancreatic ductal epithelial cell cultures were established from 6 week old Pdx1-Cre;LSL-KrasG12D L/+ (n=3) or Pdx1-Cre;LSL-KrasG12D L/+;Pten L/+ (n=5) mice. Total RNA was collected from early passage cells.

ATM mediates pRB function to control DNMT1 protein stability and DNA methylation

Project description:The retinoblastoma tumor suppressor gene (RB) product has been implicated in epigenetic control of gene expression owing to its ability to physically bind to many of chromatin modifiers. However, the biological and clinical significance of this activity was not well elucidated. To address this, we performed genetic and epigenetic analyses in an Rb-deficient mouse thyroid C cell tumor model. Here we report that the genetic interaction of Rb and ATM regulates DNMT1 protein stability, and hence controls the DNA methylation status in the promoter of at least Ink4a, Shc2, FoxO6 and Noggin genes. Further, we demonstrate that inactivation of pRB promotes the Tip60 (acetyltransferase)-dependent ATM activation, allows activated ATM to physically bind to DNMT1 forming a complex with Tip60 and UHRF1 (E3 ligase), and consequently accelerates DNMT1 ubiquitination driven by Tip60-dependent acetylation. Our results indicate that inactivation of pRB pathway in coordination with aberration in DNA damage response leads to abnormal DNA methylation pattern by affecting the stability of DNMT1. 163; Rb-/-;ATM-/- MEFs, D4; DNMT1 knockdown from 163 cells and analysed at day 4, WT8S; 163 cells reconstituted with ATM expression vector

RNA-seq analysis of acute Rb1 deletion in adult mouse tissues

Project description:Abstract:The pRb tumor suppressor protein associates with chromatin and regulates gene expression. Numerous studies have identified Rb-dependent RNA signatures, but the proteomic effects of Rb-loss are largely unexplored. We have acutely ablated Rb in adult mice and conducted quantitative analysis of RNA and proteomic changes in colon and lung, where Rb-loss was sufficient or insufficient to induce ectopic proliferation respectively. As expected, RbKO caused similar increases in classic pRb/E2F-regulated transcripts in both tissues, but unexpectedly their protein products increased only in the colon, consistent with its increased proliferative index. Thus, these protein changes induced by Rb-loss are coupled with proliferation, but uncoupled from transcription. The proteomic changes in common between RbKO tissues showed a striking decrease in proteins with mitochondrial functions. Accordingly, RB1 inactivation in human cells decreased both mitochondrial mass and OXPHOS function. RBKO cells showed decreased mitochondrial respiratory capacity and the accumulation of hypopolarized mitochondria. Additionally, RB/Rb-loss altered mitochondrial pyruvate oxidation from 13C-Glucose through the TCA cycle in both cells and mouse tissues. Consequently, RBKO cells have an enhanced sensitivity to mitochondrial stress conditions. In summary, proteomic analyses provide a new perspective on Rb/RB1 mutation, highlighting the importance of pRb for mitochondrial function and suggesting vulnerabilities for treatment.
