Dissection of transcriptional and cis-regulatory control of differentiation in human pancreatic cancer [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: The histological grade of carcinomas describes the ability of tumor cells to organize differentiated epithelial structures and has prognostic impact. Molecular control of differentiation in normal and cancer cells relies on lineage-determining transcription factors (TFs) that activate the repertoire of cis-regulatory elements controlling cell type-specific transcriptional outputs. TF recruitment to cognate genomic DNA binding sites results in the deposition of histone marks characteristic of enhancers and other cis-regulatory elements. Here we integrated transcriptomics and genome-wide analysis of chromatin marks in human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells of different grade to identify first, and then experimentally validate the sequence-specific TFs controlling grade-specific gene expression. We identified a core set of TFs with a pervasive binding to the enhancer repertoire characteristic of differentiated PDACs and controlling different modules of the epithelial gene expression program. Defining the regulatory networks that control the maintenance of epithelial differentiation of PDAC cells will help determine the molecular basis of PDAC heterogeneity and progression.

A combined genomic approach unveils the transcriptional basis of heterogeneity of human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma [RNA-seq]

Poly(A) fraction of the total RNA from human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cell lines was extracted and subjected to by multiparallel sequencing. Experiments were carried out in unmodified cells in duplicate, genome edited clonal CFPAC1 cells (2 KLF5-deleted CRISPR-Cas9 clones, 3 ELF3-deleted CRISPR-Cas9 clones and 2 wt clones) and CFPAC1 cells ectopically expressing ZEB1 or empty vector control (in duplicate).

Latent enhancers unveiled by stimulation expand and adapt the available cis-regulatory repertoire (FAIRE-seq)

Project description:According to current models, transcription factors (TFs) activated by extracellular stimuli operate in the context of a pre-established enhancer repertoire induced and maintained by lineage-specific TFs. Here, we uncovered the existence of latent enhancers, defined as regions of the genome that in terminally differentiated cells are poorly accessible and lack the histone marks characteristic of enhancers, but readily acquire these features in response to extracellular cues. Stimulation of resting macrophages caused simultaneous binding of stimulus-activated TFs and lineage-determining TFs to these regions, enabling deposition of enhancer-specific features. Once unveiled, these enhancers did not return to a latent state even when stimulation ceased; instead, they persisted and mediated a faster and stronger response upon restimulation. We suggest that stimulus-specific expansion of the available cis-regulatory repertoire provides an epigenomic memory of the exposure to environmental agents. Formaldehyde-Assisted Isolation Of Regulatory Elements (FAIRE) followed by multiparallel sequencing was performed in untreated murine bone marrow-derived macrophages.

Cell differentiation grade determines distinct FOXA2 contributions to the cis-regulatory networks of pancreatic cancer cells [RNA-seq]

Project description:Abnormal differentiation contributes to the spectrum of aberrant properties of tumor cells. Differentiation of both normal and tumor cells is controlled by regulatory networks enforced by transcription factors (TFs) involved in lineage specification. Among them, pioneer factors such as FOXA1/2, are able to bind and make accessible naïve chromatin, thus critically contributing to the establishment of gene regulatory networks. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is characterized by massive heterogeneity, with the coexistence at all disease stages of well- and poorly-differentiated cells with diverging transcriptional networks. We found that FOXA2, a TF controlling pancreas specification, was expressed in both well- and poorly-differentiated PDAC cells, but it controlled distinct gene expression programs and displayed extensively different genomic distributions because of its partnership with TFs expressed in a differentiation grade-specific manner, such as HNF1 and HOXB8/9 in well- and poorly-differentiated cells, respectively. These data suggest that pioneer TFs such as FOXA2 are versatile transcriptional regulators whose broad contribution to the gene regulatory networks of highly heterogeneous cancers such as PDACs, depends on the differential availability of partner TFs expressed in distinct tumor cells.
