Project description:Investigation of transcript level modulation in unstimulated and TGF-beta treated (with or without superimposed T-cell receptor and CD28 stimulation) naive CD4 T cells from wild type or Smad3-deficient littermate mice. Smad3 is a critical signaling molecule and transcription factor downstream of TGF-beta and mediates several of the TGF-beta dependent tolerogenic effects in T cells. This study was undertaken to unveil the transcriptionnal program controled by the TGF-b/Smad3 axis. Microarray study using RNA recovered after 6 hours of culture in either serum free media, serum-free media + TGF-beta (2.5ng/ml) or serum-free media + TGF-beta and anti-CD3e and anti-CD28 stimulation (3 conditions). Naive CD4 T cells (TCRb+, CD4+, CD62L+ and CD44-) were sorted from either wild type or Smad3 deficient littermates and submitted to the 3 culture conditions. Three biological replicates were obtained (each from at least 2 different mice). Thus a total of 18 Nimblegen 365K chip were used.

Project description:Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) transmits signals that facilitate cancer progression. Especially, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) induced by TGF-beta is considered to crucially contribute to the malignant phenotype of cancer cells. Here we report that the EMT-associated cellular responses induced by TGF-beta are mediated through distinct signaling pathways that diverge at Smad3; cell motility and epithelial marker downregulation are Smad3-dependent while mesenchymal marker induction is not. Furthermore, using a chimeric protein approach in SMAD3 knockout A549 cells, we found that the beta 4 region in the MH1 domain of Smad3 is indispensable for TGF-beta–induced cell motility, but not for epithelial marker downregulation. A transcriptome analysis was performed using A549 cells expressing Smad3 mutant of the MH1 domain.

Project description:Transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta induces apoptosis of many types of cancer cells and acts as a tumor suppressor. We found lower expression of TGF-beta type II receptor (TbRII) in most of SCLC cells and tissues than in normal lung epithelial cells and normal lung tissues, respectively. In vitro cell growth and in vivo tumor formation were suppressed by TGF-beta-mediated apoptosis when the wild-type TbRII was overexpressed in SCLC cells. We therefore determined Smad2 and Smad3 (Smad2/3) binding sites in a SCLC cell line H345 stably expressing exogenous TbRII (H345-TbRII) to identify target genes of TGF-beta. Smad2 and Smad3 binding sites in H345-TbRII cells were determined by ChIP-seq (one sample analysis, without replicates).

Project description:Imbalances in glucose and energy homeostasis are at the core of the worldwide epidemic of obesity and diabetes. Here, we illustrate an important role of the TGF-beta/Smad3 signaling pathway in regulating glucose and energy homeostasis. Smad3 deficient mice are protected from diet-induced obesity and diabetes. Interestingly, the metabolic protection is accompanied by Smad3-/- white adipose tissue acquiring the bioenergetic and gene expression profile of brown fat/skeletal muscle. Smad3-/- adipocytes demonstrate a marked increase in mitochondrial biogenesis, with a corresponding increase in basal respiration, and Smad3 acts as a repressor of PGC-alpha1 expression. We observe significant correlation between TGF-beta1 levels and adiposity in rodents and humans. Further, systemic blockade of TGF-beta1 signaling protects mice from obesity, diabetes and hepatic steatosis. Together, these results demonstrate that TGF-beta signaling regulates glucose tolerance and energy homeostasis and suggest that modulation of TGF-beta1 activity might be an effective treatment strategy for obesity and diabetes. Smad3-/- and WT mice were fed with regular diet (RD) and high fat diet (HFD), and diet induced obese (DIO) mice were treated with IgG and anti-TGF-b1 antibody

Project description:Gene expression profiling was carried out in six (wild type, β2SP+/-, β2SP-/-, SMAD3+/-, SMAD3-/- and β2SP+/-/ SMAD3+/-) different mouse knockout embryonic fibroblast (MEF) cells. Beta-2-spectrin (β2SP) is a dynamic intracellular non-pleckstrin homology (PH)-domain protein that belongs to a family of polypeptides that have been implicated in conferring cell polarity. Spectrins have been linked to multiple signaling pathways, including cell cycle regulation, DNA repair and TGFβ signaling. In this study, we report a major role of the TGFβ/Smad3 adaptor β2-Spectrin in conserving genomic integrity from alcohol-induced DNA damage and describe a novel pathway that protects genomes from genotoxic stresses. To determine the mechanism for the oncogenic switch, and whether it is related to the role of β2SP in TGF-β signaling transduction or secondary to its cytoskeletal functions, we analyzed disruption of two elements of the TGF-β pathway by generating double heterozygous Sptbn1+/−/Smad3+/− mice.

Project description:Smad family proteins transduce signals downstream of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) and are one of the factors that regulate target genes related to diseases affecting the skin. We here identified C2orf54, officially known as MAB21L4, as one of the most up-regulated targets of TGF-beta and Smad3 in a differentiated human progenitor epidermal keratinocyte, using chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). Smad2 and Smad3 bind to the regulatory regions of the C2orf54 gene locus. We found that TGF-beta induced expression of a barrier protein involucrin (encoded by IVL gene), and transcriptional activity of the IVL promoter induced by TGF-beta was inhibited by siRNAs for C2orf54. Further analysis revealed that C2orf54 siRNAs also down-regulated the expression of several target genes of TGF-beta. C2orf54 protein located mainly in the cytosol, physically bound to Smad2 and Smad3, but did not inhibit the binding of Smad2 and Smad3 to the target genomic regions. These findings suggested that TGF-beta-induced C2orf54 up-regulates gene expression induced by Smads, possibly through its physical interaction with Smad proteins.

Project description:TGF-betas have complex roles in tumorigenesis, with context-dependent effects that can either suppress or promote tumor progression. Our goal was to use integrated genomic approaches in a model of human breast cancer progression to identify core TGF-beta-regulated genes that specifically reflect the tumor suppressor activity of TGF-beta. The model consisted of the non-tumorigenic MCF10A (“M1”), the premalignant MCF10AT1k.cl2 (“M2”), the early malignant MCF10Ca1h (“M3”) and the highly malignant, metastatic MCF10Ca1a.cl1 (“M4”) cell lines. We have previously shown that tumor suppressor activity of TGF-beta is dependent on Smad3, and is lost in M4 cells. To identify how TGF-beta/Smad3 targets change with cancer progression, we performed promoter-wide Smad3 ChIP-chip on all four cell lines of the breast cancer progression model (M1-M4), following treatment with TGF-beta or vehicle control.
