SS18::SSX redistributes BAF chromatin remodelers selectively to activate and repress transcription [scRNA-Seq]

ABSTRACT: In order to profile the transcriptional changes that accompany SyS development along disparate epithelial, mesenchymal, or poorly differentiated trajectories, we performed single cell transcriptome profiling (scRNA-seq) on mouse SyS tumors similar to those profiled epigenomically. The tumors exhibited a variety of histomorphologies, indicated in hematoxylin and eosin tumor sections of tissue immediately adjacent to that submitted for scRNA-seq.

SS18::SSX redistributes BAF chromatin remodelers selectively to activate and repress transcription [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Synovial sarcoma (SS) is a rare malignancy, involves a t(X;18) chromosomal translocation that creates a fusion gene SS18-SSX. SS18 is a chromatin remodeling BAF-complexes component, which incorporated in CBAF and GBAF (non-canonical ncBAF). Our previous studies determined that incorporation of the fusion oncoprotein caused degradation of CBAF complexes, emphasizing a critical oncogenic function of GBAF and PBAF in synovial sarcomagenesis. To determine the SyS dependencies on different subtypes of BAF complexes during tumor development in vivo, we used our SyS mouse model combined with genetic disruption of specific BAF complexes components ARID1A/B or PBRM1. In this study, our fundings suggest that depletion of ARID1A and ARID1B sped tumorigenesis, without significant change in the histomorphology of the developing tumors. Loss of PBRM1 also led to faster tumor growing, but Pbrm1-silenced tumors lacked the full array of SyS histomorphologies observed in wildtype tumors. Overall, Arid1a or Arid1b disruption rendered tumor transcriptomes that clustered within the hSS2 tumor transcriptomes, unlike Pbrm1 disrupted tumors.

SS18::SSX redistributes BAF chromatin remodelers selectively to activate and repress transcription [ChIP-Seq, Hi-ChIP]

Project description:In order to evaluate SS18::SSX distribution across chromatin in synovial sarcoma, we performed ChIP-seq from mouse SyS tumors expressing the human SS18::SSX2 using an antibody specific for the fusion oncoprotein SS18::SS. ChIP-seq was also employed to assess SyS genome profiles of specific chromatin histone marks (H2AK119ub, H3K4me1, H3K4me3, H3K27ac and H3K27me3), and chromatin conformation by HiChIP was evaluated using an antibody against H3K27ac to identify enhancer loops for the purpose of assigning distal regulatory elements to specific genes. Furthermore, we also characterize the distribution of each BAF family subtypes with ChIP-seq ( ARID1A (cBAF), DPF2 (cBAF), PBRM1 (PBAF) and BRD9 (GBAF/non-canonical BAF)). In this study, our fundings suggest that SS18::SSX distributes to proximal and distal regulatory elements bearing ubiquitylated histone 2A and GBAF distributes with the fusion to broad proximal and distal regions; CBAF and PBAF distribute narrowly to active transcriptional start sites.

SS18-SSX drives CREB activation in synovial sarcoma.

Project description:PurposeSynovial sarcoma (SySa) is a rare soft tissue tumor characterized by a reciprocal t(X;18) translocation. The chimeric SS18-SSX fusion protein represents the major driver of the disease, acting as aberrant transcriptional dysregulator. Oncogenic mechanisms whereby SS18-SSX mediates sarcomagenesis are incompletely understood, and strategies to selectively target SySa cells remain elusive. Based on results of Phospho-Kinase screening arrays, we here investigate the functional and therapeutic relevance of the transcription factor CREB in SySa tumorigenesis.MethodsImmunohistochemistry of phosphorylated CREB and its downstream targets (Rb, Cyclin D1, PCNA, Bcl-xL and Bcl-2) was performed in a large cohort of SySa. Functional aspects of CREB activity, including SS18-SSX driven circuits involved in CREB activation, were analyzed in vitro employing five SySa cell lines and a mesenchymal stem cell model. CREB mediated transcriptional activity was modulated by RNAi-mediated knockdown and small molecule inhibitors (666-15, KG-501, NASTRp and Ro 31-8220). Anti-proliferative effects of the CREB inhibitor 666-15 were tested in SySa avian chorioallantoic membrane and murine xenograft models in vivo.ResultsWe show that CREB is phosphorylated and activated in SySa, accompanied by downstream target expression. Human mesenchymal stem cells engineered to express SS18-SSX promote CREB expression and phosphorylation. Conversely, RNAi-mediated knockdown of SS18-SSX impairs CREB phosphorylation in SySa cells. Inhibition of CREB activity reduces downstream target expression, accompanied by suppression of SySa cell proliferation and induction of apoptosis in vitro and in vivo.ConclusionIn conclusion, our data underline an essential role of CREB in SySa tumorigenesis and provides evidence for molecular targeted therapies.

Truncated SSX protein suppresses synovial sarcoma cell proliferation by inhibiting the localization of SS18-SSX fusion protein.

Project description:Synovial sarcoma is a relatively rare high-grade soft tissue sarcoma that often develops in the limbs of young people and induces the lung and the lymph node metastasis resulting in poor prognosis. In patients with synovial sarcoma, specific chromosomal translocation of t(X; 18) (p11.2;q11.2) is observed, and SS18-SSX fusion protein expressed by this translocation is reported to be associated with pathogenesis. However, role of the fusion protein in the pathogenesis of synovial sarcoma has not yet been completely clarified. In this study, we focused on the localization patterns of SS18-SSX fusion protein. We constructed expression plasmids coding for the full length SS18-SSX, the truncated SS18 moiety (tSS18) and the truncated SSX moiety (tSSX) of SS18-SSX, tagged with fluorescent proteins. These plasmids were transfected in synovial sarcoma SYO-1 cells and we observed the expression of these proteins using a fluorescence microscope. The SS18-SSX fusion protein showed a characteristic speckle pattern in the nucleus. However, when SS18-SSX was co-expressed with tSSX, localization of SS18-SSX changed from speckle patterns to the diffused pattern similar to the localization pattern of tSSX and SSX. Furthermore, cell proliferation and colony formation of synovial sarcoma SYO-1 and YaFuSS cells were suppressed by exogenous tSSX expression. Our results suggest that the characteristic speckle localization pattern of SS18-SSX is strongly involved in the tumorigenesis through the SSX moiety of the SS18-SSX fusion protein. These findings could be applied to further understand the pathogenic mechanisms, and towards the development of molecular targeting approach for synovial sarcoma.

The SS18-SSX Oncoprotein Hijacks KDM2B-PRC1.1 to Drive Synovial Sarcoma.

Project description:Synovial sarcoma is an aggressive cancer invariably associated with a chromosomal translocation involving genes encoding the SWI-SNF complex component SS18 and an SSX (SSX1 or SSX2) transcriptional repressor. Using functional genomics, we identify KDM2B, a histone demethylase and component of a non-canonical polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1.1), as selectively required for sustaining synovial sarcoma cell transformation. SS18-SSX1 physically interacts with PRC1.1 and co-associates with SWI/SNF and KDM2B complexes on unmethylated CpG islands. Via KDM2B, SS18-SSX1 binds and aberrantly activates expression of developmentally regulated genes otherwise targets of polycomb-mediated repression, which is restored upon KDM2B depletion, leading to irreversible mesenchymal differentiation. Thus, SS18-SSX1 deregulates developmental programs to drive transformation by hijacking a transcriptional repressive complex to aberrantly activate gene expression.

The clinical implication of SS18-SSX fusion gene in synovial sarcoma.

Project description:BackgroundThe aim of this study is to evaluate distribution and clinical impact of the SS18-SSX fusion gene in patients with synovial sarcoma in China.MethodsWe collected and analysed the clinical data of 88 patients using univariate and multivariate survival analysis. HEK 293T and NIH 3T3 cell lines were transfected with the SS18-SSX1 or SS18-SSX2 gene to determine the respective involvement of these fusion genes in cell proliferation and invasion.ResultsOverall survival was significantly better among SS18-SSX2 cases (P=0.001), FNCLCC grade 2 cases (P<0.001), and UICC stage 1 or 2 (P<0.001) by univariate and multivariate survival analysis. SS18-SSX1-positive cells were more proliferative and invasive than SS18-SSX2-positive cells.ConclusionSS18-SSX fusion type is a significant prognostic factor for patients with synovial sarcoma.

Proteomic signatures corresponding to the SS18/SSX fusion gene in synovial sarcoma.

Project description:Synovial sarcoma (SS) is a malignant soft tissue lesion and most commonly arises in young adults. Chromosomal translocation t(X;18)(p11;q11) results in the formation of SS18/SSX by gene fusion of the SS18 gene on chromosome 18 to either SSX1, SSX2, or SSX4 gene located on chromosome X, which is detected in more than 95% of SSs. Although multiple lines of evidence suggest that the SS18/SSX fusion is the oncogene in this tumor, the protein expression profiles associated with SS18/SSX have yet to be elucidated. In this study, we conducted proteomic studies using SS18/SSX knockdown in three SS cell lines to identify the regulated proteins associated with SS18/SSX in SS. Isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (i-TRAQ) analyses identified approximate 1700-2,000 proteins regulated by the SS18/SSX fusion in each SS cell line. We also analyzed the three profiles to identify proteins that were similarly altered in all 3 cell lines and found 17 consistently upregulated and 18 consistently downregulated proteins, including TAGLN and ACTN4. In addition, network analyses identified several critical pathways including RUNX2 and SMARCA4. RUNX2 and SMARCA4 had the highest ranking in these identified pathways. In addition, we found that expression of TAGLN inhibited cell viability in SS cell lines. Our data suggest that the differentiation and cell growth of SS may be enhanced by the identified proteins induced by SS18/SSX. We believe that the findings obtained in the present functional analyses will help to improve our understanding of the relationship between SS18/SSX and malignant behavior in SS.
