Whole genome expression analysis of SaOS2 cells expressing anti-sense APC RNA

ABSTRACT: Osteoblasts represent an important cell type playing a role in not only bone formation but also regulate hematopoiesis by secreting factor as well as via contact with hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow. Since Wnt signalling plays an important role in osteoblast differentiation, we were interested in looking at how canonical Wnt signalling activation in osteoblastic cells is likely to affect hematopoietic cell adhesion and regulate their fate. Endogenous Wnt signaling activation in osteoblastic SaOS2 cells was achieved by generating doxycycline (DOX) inducible antisense-APC expressing SaOS2 cells. Gene expression profiling was performed on SaOS2 cells induced with DOX (1μg/ml) for 3 days and further on DOX treated cells allowed to recover for 3 days. The results reveal changes in expression of a number of cell adhesion and extracellular matrix protein genes as well as genes involved in osteoblast differentiation.

Project description:We carried out CEBPD chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by next generation sequencing (ChIP-seq) and revealed that the top motif enriched in CEBPD sites are identical to the CEBPD family motif and osteoblast differentiation/bone formation motifs like Fos1, Fra1, JUNB, RUNX and STAT3. The commitment of stem cells to an osteoblastic lineage is a complex and tightly regulated process, involving coordination between extrinsic signals and intrinsic transcriptional machinery. While many rodent osteoblast studies abound, human osteoblastic signaling networks are not as well-researched due to limitations in cell sources and existing models. Here, we generated human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived osteoblasts and used this modeling platform to identify functional osteoblastic surface receptors and their downstream transcriptional networks involved in human osteogenesis. We systematically dissected osteoblastic gene expression patterns and identified critical clusters associated with osteogenesis. The osteoblast surface receptor signature study revealed enriched CORIN expression in osteoblasts and enriched SDC1 expression in MSCs. In vitro calcified staining and 3D biomimetic GelMA/microCT (μCT) studies demonstrated that depletion of CORIN as well as ectopic expression of SDC1 significantly impaired osteogenesis. Transcriptome analyses revealed that dysregulation of CORIN or SDC1 alters biological processes and pathways mainly involved in bone formation associated signaling including TGFβ regulating extracellular matrix and Wnt signaling. Genome-wide ChIP enrichment analysis further indicated that CEBPD is a downstream transcription factor involved in CORIN and SDC1-modulated osteogenesis. CEBPD ChIP-seq and RNA-seq validated its role in controlling extracellular matrix organization, bone mineralization, and TGFβ, BMP, and Wnt signaling. Depletion of CEBPD led to impairment of osteoblastic differentiation. Differential expression analysis of single-cell transcriptomes revealed enriched expression of CEBPD and its transcriptional targets during the different stages of osteoblast differentiation. In summary, our findings elucidated the vital signaling in osteoblast lineage commitment.

Project description:We utilized RNA sequencing to provide the gene expression profile of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived osteoblasts in different differentiation stages as well as the gene alteration profile of H9 MSCs-derived osteoblasts following different gene regulation treatments, including SDC1 overexpression, knockout of CEBPD, knockout of IL1R1, and knockdown of CORIN.

Project description:SaOS2 osteosarcoma cells were cultured with or without atorvastatin (10 µM) for 6, 15 or 24h (2 biological replcates). RNA were isolated and hybridized to RNG microarrays. Background Osteosarcoma is the most common primary tumor of bone. The rapid development of metastatic lesions and resistance to chemotherapy remain major mechanisms responsible for the failure of treatments and poor survival rate for patients. Methods We previously showed that the HMGCoA reductase inhibitors statins exhibit anti-tumoral effects on osteosarcoma cells. Here, using microarray analysis, we identify cyr61/CCN1 as a new target of statins. Modulations of expression of cyr61 were performed in human and murine osteosarcoma cell lines to investigate in vitro cell viability, migratory potential and invasiveness. Cyr61 expression was evaluated in 231 tissue cores from osteosarcoma patients using tissue microarray. Tumor behavior and metastases occurence were analysed by IM injection of modified osteosarcoma cells to BALB/c mice. Results Transcriptome comparisons revealed that statins down-regulate cyr61 expression in SaOS2 cells. Cyr61 silencing in human and murine osteosarcoma cell lines enhanced cell death, but reduced cell migration and cell invasion compared to parental cells whereas cyr61 overexpression had opposite effects. Tissue microarray analysis demonstrated that cyr61 protein expression is higher in human osteosarcoma compared to normal bone tissue and is further increased in metastatic tissues. In vivo, cyr61 overexpression in osteosarcoma cells enhanced lung metastases development whereas cyr61 silencing strongly reduced metastases in mice. Conclusion The results reveal that cyr61 expression increases with tumor grade in human osteosarcoma and demonstrate that cyr61 silencing inhibits in vitro osteosarcoma cell invasion and migration as well as in vivo lung metastases in mice. These data provide a novel molecular target for therapeutic intervention in metastatic osteosarcoma.
