Expression profiling of Ciona intestinalis neurula and mid-tailbud stage embryos expressing altered forms of the transcription factor Ci-Tbx2/3 in the notochord

ABSTRACT: Despite being found in the notochord of several chordates, the roles of the Tbx2 subfamily of T-box transcription factors in the development of this tissue remain largely unknown. We explored the targets of the only Tbx2 subfamily member in Ciona intestinalis, Ci-Tbx2/3, by expressing mutant forms of the transcriptional regulator using the Ci-Bra promoter region. We produced a dominant interfering version of Ci-Tbx2/3 (Tbx2/3DBD) through expression of a truncated version consisting only of its DNA-binding domain (DBD) and a constitutive activator form by attaching the T-box of Ci-Tbx2/3 to the VP16 transactivation domain (Tbx2/3VP16). These constructs were introduced into 1-cell stage embryos and grown to the neurula (N) or mid-tailbud (mTb) stage to capture targets regulated throughout notochord morphogenesis.

Ci-Tbx2/3 targets were ascertained using whole-genome custom Affymetrix microarrays to compare the transcription levels of Tbx2/3DBD and Tbx2/3VP16 expressing embryos to wild-type controls (Bra>GFP) at the neurula or mTb stages.

Expression profiling of Ciona intestinalis initial tailbud stage embryos expressing mutant forms of the transcription factor Ci-XBP1 in the notochord.

Project description:XBP transcription factors are well-known regulators of the the unfolded protein response and are required for plasma cell differentiation. However, recent studies have shown that the XBP1 gene is also expressed in the developing notochord of Ciona and various vertebrates, and to date its role in the formation of this organ is largely uncharacterized. We identified putative targets of Ci-XBP1 through a microarray screen, using RNAs extracted from embryos expressing mutant forms of this transcriptional regulator in the notochord. We expressed in the Ciona notochord a dominant-negative version of Ci-XBP1 (XBP DBD::GFP) by cloning its DNA-binding domain (DBD) downstream of the Ci-Brachyury (Ci-Bra) promoter. We created a constitutive activator form of Ci-XBP by fusing its DBD to the VP16 transactivation domain (Bra>XBP DBD::VP16::GFP). These constructs were introduced into 1-cell stage embryos and grown to the initial tailbud (iTb) stage to identify Ci-XBP notochord target genes.

Transcriptomic Alterations in Lung Adenocarcinoma Unveil New Mechanisms Targeted by the TBX2 Subfamily of Tumor Suppressor Genes

Project description:T-box (TBX) transcription factors are evolutionary conserved genes and master transcriptional regulators. In mammals, TBX2 subfamily (TBX2, TBX3, TBX4, and TBX5) genes are expressed in the developing lung bud and tracheae. Our group previously showed that the expression of TBX2 subfamily was significantly high in human normal lungs, but markedly suppressed in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). To further elucidate their role in LUAD pathogenesis, we first confirmed abundant expression of protein products of the four members by immunostaining in adult human normal lung tissues. We also found overall suppressed expression of these genes and their corresponding proteins in a panel of human LUAD cell lines. Transient over-expression of each of the genes in human (NCI-H1299), and mouse (MDA-F471) derived lung cancer cells was found to significantly inhibit growth and proliferation as well as induce apoptosis. Genome-wide transcriptomic analyses on NCI-H1299 cells, overexpressing TBX2 gene subfamily, unraveled novel regulatory pathways. These included, among others, inhibition of cell cycle progression but more importantly activation of the histone demethylase pathway. When using a pattern-matching algorithm, we showed that TBX's overexpression mimic molecular signatures from azacitidine treated NCI-H1299 cells which in turn are inversely correlated to expression profiles of both human and murine lung tumors relative to matched normal lung. In conclusion, we showed that the TBX2 subfamily genes play a critical tumor suppressor role in lung cancer pathogenesis through regulating its methylating pattern, making them putative candidates for epigenetic therapy in LUAD.

Genome-wide chromatin occupancy of transcription factor TBX2 in luminal breast cancer cells

Project description:Here we demonstrate a previously unknown mechanism of TBX2-mediated gene repression in breast tumours, whereby TBX2 physically interacts with CoREST-associated proteins LSD1, HDAC1 and the ZNF217 oncogene. Through Chromatin Immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) we find that while over 80% of TBX2 binding sites are concentrated at promoters, these regions show remarkably no enrichment for the T-box element; rather TBX2-bound regions are biased toward a small number of non-T-box motifs, with the most abundant being Specificity Protein 1 (Sp1), EGR1 and Nuclear Transcription Factor Y (NF-Y). Furthermore, we uncover that Sp1 is crucial for recruitment of TBX2 to the NDRG1 promoter and subsequent repression of this gene. We also observe that ZNF217 cooccupies approximately 30% of TBX2-bound sites, a number of which contain RCOR1 and exhibit upregulation of the associated transcripts following disruption of TBX2/CoREST function. Overall these data highlight a novel potential therapeutic opportunity whereby poor-prognosis, TBX2 overexpressing breast tumours may be pharmacologically exploited by targeting the CoREST-dependent gene repression network, to recover normal growth control.

Brachyury controls Ciona notochord fate as part of a feedforward network [IV]

Project description:The notochord is a defining feature of the chordates. The transcription factor Brachyury (Bra) is a key regulator of notochord fate but here we show that it is not a unitary master regulator in the model chordate Ciona. Ectopic Bra expression only partially reprograms other cell types to a notochord-like transcriptional profile and a subset of notochord-enriched genes are unaffected by CRISPR Bra disruption. We identify Foxa.a and Mnx as potential co-regulators and find that combinatorial cocktails are more effective at reprograming other cell types than Bra alone. We reassess the network relationships between Foxa.a, and other components of the notochord gene regulatory network and find that Foxa.a expression in the notochord is regulated by vegetal FGF signaling. It is a direct activator of Bra expression and has a binding motif that is significantly enriched in the regulatory regions of notochord-enriched genes. These and other results indicate that Bra and Foxa.a act together in a regulatory network dominated by positive feed-forward interactions, with neither being a classically-defined master regulator.er

Tbx2 and Tbx3 regulate cell fate progression of the otic vesicle for inner ear development

Project description:The morphogenesis of the otic vesicle (OV) to form inner ear organs serves as an excellent model system to understand cell fate acquisition on a single cell level. Tbx2 and Tbx3 (Tbx2/3) encode closely related T-box transcription factors that are expressed widely in the mammalian otic vesicle (OV). Inactivation of both genes in the Pax2-Cre lineage (Tbx2/3cKO) results in failed morphogenesis of the OV into inner ear organs. To understand the basis of these defects, single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) was performed on the OV lineage using Pax2-Cre, in controls versus Tbx2/3cKO embryos, at stage E10.5. We identified a multipotent population termed otic progenitors that are localized to the anterior ventrolateral region of the OV in controls and are marked by expression of Fgf18, Sox3, and Cxcl12. The otic progenitor population was increased three-fold in Tbx2/3cKO embryos, concomitant with dysregulation of genes in these cells as well as reduced progression to more differentiated states of prosensory and nonsensory cells. An ectopic neural population of cells was detected in the posterior OV of Tbx2/3cKO embryos due to increased expression of Neurog1 and NeuroD1 but with reduced maturation. As all three cell fates were affected in Tbx2/3cKO embryos, we suggest that Tbx2/3 promotes progression of multipotent otic progenitors to more differentiated cell types in the OV.
