Project description:This study was designed to examine the requirement for the p63 transcription factor in Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) tumor maintenance in an in vivo murine system. A tamoxifen-inducible Keratin 14-driven Cre recombinase transgene was used to conditionally excise p63 in advanced murine SCC tumors. These data show the context-dependent regulation of p63 target genes in cancer. Total RNA from murine Squamous Cell Carcinoma tumors was examined 1-3 days following genomic excision of TP63 in Keratin 14-expressing tumor cells.

Project description:SOX2 is a transcription factor essential for pluripotent stem cells, and development and maintenance of squamous epithelium. We previously reported SOX2 an oncogene subject to highly recurrent genomic amplification in squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs). Here we demonstrate in SCCs that SOX2 interacts with another master squamous transcription factor p63, and through ChIP-seq show that genomic occupancy of SOX2 overlaps with that of p63 at a large number of loci and that they cooperatively regulate gene expression including ETV4, which we find essential for SOX2-amplified SCC cell survival. Furthermore, SOX2 binds to distinct genomic loci in SCCs than in embryonic stem cells and the SOX2-p63 coordinate binding is unique to SCC. In addition, a subset of SOX2 genomic binding sites in SCC that lack p63 co-occupancy are co-occupied by the AP-1 transcriptional complex. These demonstrate that SOX2’s actions in SCC differ substantially from its role in pluripotency and identify novel SOX2 interactions that will enable deeper characterization of SOX2’s function in SCC.

Project description:Although there are several reports describing a stem cell fraction to form urothelium and lineage tracing studies in urinary bladder, it is still unclear about stem cells in mouse bladder epithelium. Here, we have established the cloning system of mouse stem cells from wild type and p63 knockout bladder. We isolated stem/progenitor cells from wild type and p63 knockout epithelium. From wild type bladder, we have cloned keratin 5-positive stem cells, and from p63 knockout epithelium, which loses basal cell fraction, we have cloned morphologically-distinct keratin 8 and claudin 3 positive stem cells, which may be reminiscent of intestinal metaplasia in bladder.

Project description:A central challenge in human cancer therapy is the identification of pathways that control tumor cell survival and chemosensitivity in the absence of functional p53. The p53-related transcription factors p63 and p73 exhibit distinct, p53-independent roles in development and cancer: p73 promotes genome stability and mediates chemosensitivity, while p63 largely lacks these p53-like functions and instead promotes proliferation and cell survival. Here, we identify a new and physiologically important mechanism of p63/p73 cross-talk which governs the balance between pro-survival and pro-apoptotic programs in both human and murine squamous cell carcinoma. Through comprehensive profiling of p63-regulated microRNAs (miRs), we identified a subset which target p73 for inhibition, including miR-193a-5p, a direct endogenous transcriptional target repressed by p63 and activated by pro-apoptotic p73 isoforms in both normal cells and tumor cells in vivo. Consequently, chemotherapy treatment causes p63/p73-dependent induction of this miR, thereby limiting chemosensitivity due to miR-mediated feedback control of p73. We demonstrate that interrupting this feedback by inhibiting miR-193a suppresses tumor cell viability and induces dramatic chemosensitivity both in vitro and in vivo. Thus, we have identified a direct, miR-dependent regulatory circuit mediating inducible chemoresistance, whose inhibition provides a new therapeutic opportunity in p53-deficient tumors.

Project description:iASPP (PPP1R13L) is an evolutionarily conserved regulator of p53 family members. In mice, iASPP deletion in keratin 14-expressing keratinocytes is sufficient to cause detrimental phenotypes with squamous epithelium abnormalities. In human skin, wild-type nuclear iASPP colocalizes with the key squamous differentiation regulatory factor, TP63, and iASPP mutations are associated with abnormalities in skin development. To clarify how iASPP modulates p63 genome occupancy, p63 ChIP-seq data from iASPP WT and iASPP KO primary mouse keratinocytes (MKC) were compared.

Project description:Transcription factor (TF) p63 is a master regulator playing critical roles in epidermal development and other cellular processes. Our lab’s previous research deciphered a distinct chromatin architecture at p63 bound site in keratinocytes. In order to figure out whether those chromatin modifications already exist before p63 binding, or p63 occupancy contributes to such chromatin marks, we built p63-expressing cell lines. We then obtained p63 bound regions in these overexpressing cell line, and looked at different histone marks at those sites before p63 occupancy. As shown in the results, before p63 binding, the targeting sites have barely detectable histone marks, indicating p63’s capability to approach unmodified chromatins. Moreover, there is no significant difference in chromatin marks between p63 bound sites and unbound sites when no p63 binding happens. Our in vivo findings were confirmed by examining p63 binding to unmodified nucleosomes in vitro, showing that histone modification is not indispensable for p63 binding but binding site positioning on nucleosome does play a role. Overall, our results suggest that histone modifications do not affect p63 binding, and p63 protein can bind to inaccessible, weakly modified chromatin regions in vivo.

Project description:Despite even large phenotypic differences among vertebrate groups, dentitions and jaws fit and function together, yet the genetic processes that orchestrate cranial and dental morphogenesis remain poorly understood. In the p63-/- mouse mutant, teeth but not jaws fail to form. This edentate mouse is a model with which to tease out genes important for odontogenesis but not jaw morphogenesis, and which may thus allow dentitions to change during development and evolution without necessarily affecting the jaw skeleton. With the working hypothesis that tooth and jaw development are autonomously controlled by discreet gene regulatory networks, we probed for genes crucial for tooth development only. Using gene expression microarray assays validated by quantitative reverse-transcription PCR, we contrasted expression in mandibular prominences at embryonic days (E) 10-13 among mice with normal lower jaw development and either normal (p63+/-, p63+/+) or arrested (p63-/-) tooth development. We predicted that expression of a suite of genes specific to odontogenesis would differ in the edentate mice. The p63-/- mice showed significantly different expression (fold change ≥1.5, ≤-1.5; p≤0.05) of several genes, some of which are already reported to help regulate odontogenesis (e.g., p63, Osr2, Cldn3/4) and/or to be targets of p63 (e.g., Jag1/2, Fgfr2), others of which have no previously reported roles in odontogenesis or the p63 pathway (e.g, Fermt1, Cbln1, Pltp, Cxcl14, Krt8, and additional keratin and claudin family members). As expected, from E10-E13 few genes known to regulate mandible morphogenesis differed in expression between mouse strains. Thus this study links for the first time several genes to odontogenesis and/or the p63 signaling network. We propose that these genes act in a novel odontogenic network that is exclusive of lower jaw morphogenesis, and posit that this network evolved in oral, not pharyngeal, teeth.
