Project description:Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer related death in both men and women in the United States. Recently, Smad4 was discovered to be common somatic alteration in human squamous cell lung cancer. Our goal was to delineate the role of Smad4 in lung cancer. We have shown for the first time that the ablation of Pten and Smad4 in the murine airway epithelium harbors a metastatic proximal adeno-squamous lung cancer. knockout group (PTENd/d and SMAD4d/d) and control group

Project description:Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer death. Genome sequencing of lung tumors from patients with Squamous Cell Carcinoma has identified SMAD4 to be frequently mutated. Here we used a novel mouse model to determine the molecular mechanisms regulated by loss of Smad4 which lead to lung cancer progression. Mice with ablation of Pten and Smad4 in airway epithelium developed metastatic adenosquamous tumors. Comparative transcriptomic and in vivo cistromic analyses determined that loss of PTEN and SMAD4 resulted in activation of the ELF3 and the ErbB2 pathway due to decreased ERRFI1M-bM-^@M-^Ys expression, a negative regulator of ERBB2 in mice and human cells. The combinatorial inhibition of ErbB2 and Akt signaling attenuated tumor progression and cell invasion, respectively. Expression profiles analysis of human lung tumors substantiated the importance of the ErbB2/Akt/ELF3 signaling pathway as both prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic drug targets for treating lung cancer. Examination of genome-wide SMAD4 binding in 7-month-old Ptend/d mouse lung.

The microarray data includes two different ages of mouse lung samples. The microarray for the study on late stage was did on 12-month-old wild type mouse lungs and Ptend/dSmad4d/d mouse lung tumors. This study was used to identify the significantly changed genes between lung tumors and wild type lungs. The microarray for the study on early stage was did on 7-month-old wild type, Ptend/d and Ptend/dSmad4d/d mouse lungs. This study was used to identify the significantly changed driven genes before the lung tumor initiation and metastasis.

Project description:PB-Cre/Pten/Smad4 is a transgenic mouse model of metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma (PMID: 21289624). To study the transcriptomic alterations associated with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), the PB-Cre/Pten/Smad4 males with established prostate cancer were treated with surgical castration followed by enzalutamide-admixed diet. After about 4 weeks, dorsolateral prostate (DLP) lobes of treatment-naïve prostate tumors (N=2) and CRPC tumors (N=3) were harvested and extracted for RNA purification and microarray profiling. To further study the transcriptomic changes associated with lung metastases of the PB-Cre/Pten/Smad4/mTmG CRPC model, the PB-Cre/Pten/Smad4 males with established prostate cancer were treated with surgical castration followed by enzalutamide-admixed diet. About 3 months later, from one mouse anterior prostate (AP), dorsolateral prostate (DLP), ventral prostate (VP) and GFP+ lung metastasis nodules were each harvested for RNA purification and microarray profiling.

Project description:ERBB2 is an oncogenic driver with frequent gene mutations and amplification in human lung tumors and is an attractive target for lung cancer therapy. However, target therapies can be improved by understanding the in vivo mechanisms regulated by ERBB2 during lung tumor development. Here, we generated genetic mouse models to show that Erbb2 loss inhibited lung tumor development induced by deletion of Pten and Smad4. Transcriptome analysis showed that Erbb2 loss suppressed the significant changes of most of the induced genes by ablation of Pten and Smad4. Overlapping with ERBB2-associated human lung cancer genes further identified those ERBB2 downstream players potentially conserved in human and mouse lung tumors. Furthermore, MED24 was identified as a crucial oncogenic target of ERBB2 in lung tumor development. Taken together, ERBB2 is required for the dysregulation of cancer-related genes, such as MED24, during lung tumor development.

Project description:Yap1 is a critical transcription coactivator in the Hippo pathways. However, its target genes are not well defined in prostate cancer cells. To determine the downstream transcriptional targets and pathways of Yap1 in Pten/Smad4-defiicent mouse prostate cancer cells, ChIP-seq was performed in the Pten/Smad4-deficient mouse prostate cancer cells.

Project description:Over 85% of lung cancer patients harbor overt or subclinical metastases at diagnosis, and therefore most patients die of progressive metastatic disease despite aggressive local and systemic therapies. Somatic mutations in the Smad4 gene have been found in non-small-cell lung cancer, but the underlying mechanism by which Smad4 loss-of-function (LOF) accelerates lung cancer metastasis is yet to be elucidated. Here, we generated a highly aggressive lung cancer mouse model bearing conditional KrasG12D, p53fl/fl LOF and/or Smad4 fl/fl LOF mutations. The Smad4fl/fl; p53 fl/fl; KrasG12D (SPK) mutant mice manifested a much higher incidence of tumor metastases than the p53 fl/fl; KrasG12D (PK) mice. Molecularly, PAK3 was identified as a novel downstream effector of Smad4, mediating metastatic signal transduction via the PAK3-JNK-Jun pathway. Upregulation of PAK3 by Smad4 LOF in SPK mice was achieved by attenuating Smad4-dependent transcription of miR-495 and miR-543. These microRNAs (miRNAs) directly bind to the PAK3 3’UTR for blockade of PAK3 production, ultimately regulating lung cancer metastasis. An inverse correlation between Smad4 and PAK3 pathway components suggests clinical use of Smad4 LOF as a potential marker for prognosis in human lung cancer. Our study highlights the Smad4-PAK3 regulation as a point of potential therapy in metastatic lung cancer.

Project description:We evaluated the role of TTF-1/NKX2-1 on Smad3 and Smad4 binding in lung cancer cell lines. Smad3 binding sites in A549 cells and Smad3, Smad4, and TTF-1/NKX2-1 binding sites in H441 cells were determined by ChIP-seq.
