Human Papillomavirus (HPV) genomic integration, expression and E6/E7 splicing patterns in cervical cancer associated with HPV16 or HPV18 infection

ABSTRACT: Human papillomavirus (HPV) genome integration into the host genome, blocking E2 expression and leading to overexpression of E6 and E7 viral oncogenes, is considered a major step in cervical cancer development. In high-risk HPVs, E6 and E7 oncogenes are expressed as a bicistronic pre-mRNA, with alternative splicing producing the ultimate mRNAs required for E6 and E7 translation. Given the number of alternative donor and acceptor splicing sites, ten E6/E7 different alternative transcripts might be formed for HPV16 and three for HPV18, although only six isoforms have been previously reported for HPV16. In the present work, we employ high-throughput sequencing of invasive cervical cancer transcriptome (RNA-Seq) to characterize the expression of the HPV genome in 24 invasive cervical cancers associated with HPV16 and HPV18 single infections. Based on high-resolution transcriptional maps, we herein report three viral gene expression patterns which might be associated with the presence of the viral genome in episomal and/or integrated stages. Alternative mRNAs splicing isoforms coding for E6 and E7 oncoproteins were characterized and quantified, and two novel isoforms were identified. Three major isoforms (E6*I, E6*II, and E6+E7) were detected for HPV16 and two for HPV18 (E6*I and E6+E7). Minor transcript isoforms, including the novel ones, were very rare in some tumor samples or were not detected. Our data suggested that minor transcript isoforms of E6/E7 do not play a relevant role in cervical cancer.

MicroRNA expression profile in human foreskin keratinocytes (HFKs) transduced with retroviral vectors carrying E6 and E7 genes of either HPV6 or HPV16 and with the LXSN empty vector

Project description:Cervical cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related death in women worldwide. Nearly all cases of cervical cancer are attributed to infection with human papillomavirus (HPV), mainly high-risk type HPV16 and HPV18. Two viral genes, E6 and E7, play an important role in viral life cycle, since they delay keratinocyte differentiation and stimulate cell cycle progression, allowing the virus to exploit host DNA replication machinery to replicate its genome. Some of the oncogenic properties of E6 and E7 are mediated by host microRNAs (miRNAs) involved in the control of cell proliferation, senescence, and apoptosis. In order to identify genome-wide changes in miRNA expression profile, miRNA microarray analysis was performed on HFKs transduced with retroviral vectors carrying E6 and E7 genes of either HPV6 or HPV16 and with the LXSN empty vector. This dataset was used to identify and to further investigate the role of miR-146a-5p in cervical cancer.

Oncogenic HPV E7 promotes the expression of a long noncoding RNA lnc-FANCI-2 via YY1 and miR-29a

Project description:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNA) play diverse roles in biological processes, but their expression profiles and functions in cervical carcinogenesis remains unknown. By RNA-seq analyses of 18 clinical samples and validated by RT-qPCR analyses of 72 clinical samples, we provide the first evidence in this report that 194 lncRNAs are differentially regulated by high-risk HPV infection along with cervical lesion progression. One such lncRNA, lnc-FANCI-2, induced by high-risk HPV infection was carefully analyzed because it is expressed from the same chr 15q26.1 region of FANCI gene encoding an important DNA repair factor. We found a mutual regulation of lnc-FANCI-2 and FANCI in cervical cancer cells and high-risk E6 and mainly E7 for this upregulation independent of p53 and pRb/E2F1. In HPV16-positive CaSki cells, lnc-FANCI-2, primarily in the cytoplasm in ~10 copies per cell, is transcribed from two alternative promoters and polyadenylated at two alternative poly(A) sites. Alternative RNA splicing of lnc-FANCI-2 transcripts leads to produce 14 detectable RNA isoforms. YY1 interacts with viral E7 and transactivates the transcription by binding to two YY1-binding motifs in the lnc-FANCI-2 promoter. Knockdown of either YY1 or E7 expression led to significant reduction of lnc-FANCI-2 expression. The 3’ untranslational region of YY-1 RNA contains a consensus seed match to miR-29a and is sensitive to miR-29a-mediated inhibition of YY1 expression. High-risk HPV infections were found to induce YY1 expression in HPV18-infected HFKs by reduction of host miR-29a expression. Together, our data have provided novel insights into mechanisms of how high-risk HPVs contribute to cervical carcinogenesis.

Ecdysoneless protein regulates viral and cellular mRNA splicing to promote cervical oncogenesis

Project description:The high-risk subgroup of Human papilloma viruses (HPVs), exemplified by HPV16/18, are causally linked to human cancers of the anogenital tract, skin, and upper aerodigestive tract. The high-risk HPV oncoproteins E6 and E7 are expressed from a polycistronic transcript that can potentially give rise to alternatively spliced E6 mRNAs, a process important for E6 and E7 expression and oncogenic transformation. Previously, we identified ECD, the human homologue of the Drosophila ecdysoneless gene, as a novel HPV16 E6-interacting protein using Yeast two-hybrid system. Here, we show that the C-terminal region of ECD selectively binds to high-risk but not to low-risk HPV E6 proteins. We demonstrate that ECD is overexpressed in HPV+ as well as HPV- cervical and head and neck patient tumor samples. Using the TCGA dataset, we show that ECD mRNA overexpression predicts shorter survival in these cancer patients. Recent work from our laboratory showed that ECD associates with several components of RNA biogenesis/splicing machinery and are involved in mRNA export. Here, we show that ECD is an RNA binding protein and regulates mRNA splicing. RNAseq analyses of SiHa cells upon ECD knockdown (KD) revealed alterations of many cellular pathways with prominent downregulation of components of the mRNA splicing machinery. Further investigation revealed that ECD KD resulted in dysregulation of E6 RNA splicing, resulting in decreased E7 and increased RB protein. Furthermore, ECD KD dysregulated several cellular mRNAs known to be critical for HPV oncogenesis. Finally, we demonstrate that while ECD KD in cervical cancer cell lines led to a reduction in oncogenic traits, ECD overexpression together with E7 led to the immortalization of keratinocytes. Taken together, our results support a novel role of ECD in transcription and in viral and cellular mRNA splicing to support HPV-driven oncogenesis.

Effects of hypoxia on antigen presentation and T cell-based immune recognition of HPV16-transformed cells

Project description:Attempts to develop a therapeutic vaccine against human papillomavirus (HPV)-induced malignancies have not been clinically successful to date. One reason may be the hypoxic microenvironment present in most tumors, including cervical cancer. Hypoxia dysregulates the levels of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecules in different tumor entities, impacts function of cytotoxic T cells, and leads to decreased protein levels of the oncoproteins E6 and E7 in HPV-transformed cells. Therefore, we investigated the effect of hypoxia on the presentation of HPV16 E6- and E7-derived epitopes in cervical cancer cells and its effect on epitope-specific T cell cytotoxicity. Hypoxia induced downregulation of E7 protein levels in all analyzed cell lines, as assessed by Western blotting. However, contrary to previous reports, no perturbation of antigen presentation machinery (APM) components and HLA-A2 surface expression upon hypoxia treatment was detected by mass spectrometry and flow cytometry, respectively. Cytotoxicity assays performed in hypoxic conditions showed differential effects on the specific killing of HPV16-positive cervical cancer cells by epitope-specific CD8+ T cell lines in a donor- and peptide-specific manner. Effects of hypoxia on the expression of PD-L1 were ruled out by flow cytometry analysis. Altogether, our results suggest an intact APM, and cytotoxicity despite the decreased expression of E6 and E7, suggesting that successful immunotherapies can be developed for HPV-induced cervical cancer, especially if combined with hypoxia-alleviating measures.

Systematic analysis of IL-1 cytokine signaling by high-risk HPV oncoproteins

Project description:Human papillomavirus (HPV) E6 and E7 oncoproteins are expressed at all stages of HPV-mediated carcinogenesis and are essential drivers of cancers caused by high-risk HPV. Some of the activities of HPV E6 and E7, such as their interactions with host cellular tumor suppressors, have been characterized extensively. There is less information about how high-risk HPV E6 and E7 alter cellular responses to cytokines that are present in HPV-infected tissues and are an important component of the tumor microenvironment. We used several models of HPV oncoprotein activity to assess how E6 and E7 alter the cellular response to the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1beta. Models of early-stage HPV infection (human keratinocytes expressing HPV16 E6 and E7) and models of established HPV-positive head and neck cancers (patient-derived xenografts, head and neck cancer cell lines) exhibited similar dysregulation of IL-1 pathway genes and suppressed responses to IL-1beta treatment. Such overlap in cell responses supports that changes induced by HPV E6 and E7 early in infection could persist and contribute to a dysregulated immune environment throughout carcinogenesis. HPV E6 and E7 also drove the upregulation of several suppressors of IL-1 cytokine signaling, including SIGIRR, both in primary keratinocytes and in cancer cells. SIGIRR knockout was insufficient to increase IL-1beta-dependent gene expression in the presence of HPV16 E6 and E7, suggesting that multiple suppressors of IL-1 signaling contribute to dampened IL-1 responses in HPV16-positive cells.

Depletion of HPV16 oncogenes induces autophagy and senescence in a cervical carcinogenesis model, irrespective of viral physical state

Project description:We utilised our in vitro model of cervical neoplastic progression, W12, to investigate the effect of HPV16 viral oncogene depletion on well-defined integrant- and episome- associated series. To target HPV16 viral oncogenes we used our previously published E7-targeting siRNA sequence that caused substantial depletion of both E7 and E6 in CaSki cells. We found all E7-siRNA treated W12 series underwent widespread autophagy and senescence, with up-regulation of an innate immune response.

Nuclear Lactate Dehydrogenase A Senses ROS to Produce α-Hydroxybutyrate for HPV-Induced Cervical Tumor Growth

Project description:It is well known that high-risk human papilloma virus (HR-HPV) infection is strongly associated with cervical cancer and E7 was identified as one of the key initiators in HPV-mediated carcinogenesis. Here we show that lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA) preferably locates in the nucleus in HPV16-positive cervical tumors due to E7-induced intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation. Surprisingly, nuclear LDHA gains a non-canonical enzyme activity to produce α-hydroxybutyrate and triggers DOT1L (disruptor of telomeric silencing 1-like)-mediated histone H3K79 hypermethylation, resulting in the activation of antioxidant responses and Wnt signaling pathway. Furthermore, HPV16 E7 knocking-out reduces LDHA nuclear translocation and H3K79 tri-methylation in K14-HPV16 transgenic mouse model. HPV16 E7 level is significantly positively correlated with nuclear LDHA and H3K79 tri-methylation in cervical cancer. Collectively, our findings uncover a non-canonical enzyme activity of nuclear LDHA to epigenetically control cellular redox balance and cell proliferation facilitating HPV-induced cervical cancer development.

RNA expression profile comparison of HFKs expressing E6/E7 from beta-3 HPVs (49, 75, 76, 115) and from HR alpha HPV16 and beta-2 HPV38

Project description:Comparative analysis of RNA expression profiles of keratinocytes expressing E6/E7 from the different beta-3, with the RNA profiles of HPV16 and HPV38 E6/E7 HFKs reveals that HPV115 is the more divergent from the HR-mucosal type. Moreover beta-3 HPV 49, 75 and 76 E6/E7 HFKs show altered expression of genes involved in cell cycle regulation and DNA damage response which are also deregulated by expression of E6/E7 of HPV16.

Genome-wide profiling of human gene in HPV16E2 protein expressing human keratinocyte

Project description:In the early stage of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, E2 and E6 proteins are expressed and elicit specific immune response to clear cervical lesion. HPV E6 protein can reduce type I interferon (IFN) including IFN-? that involves in immune evasion and HPV persistence. To evaluate the role of E2 protein in modulation of the expression of cellular genes as well as innate immune associated genes in HPV associated cervical cancer, genome-wide expression profiling of human primary keratinocytes (HPK) harbouring HPV16 E2 and HPV18 E2 was investigated using microarray assay and innate immune associated genes were analyzed. These results indicated that HPV E2s altered cellular gene expression including immune associated genes. Altered cellular signaling pathways in HPK expressing HPV E2s based on KEGG database. The top 10 canonical pathways include metabolic pathway, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, pathway in cancer, viral carcinogenesis, protein processing in endoplasmic reticulum, PI3K-AKT signaling pathway, MAPK signaling pathway, leukocyte transendothelial migration, chemokine signaling, and focal adhesion.

Transgenic SCLC induced by E6/E7 oncoproteins vs normal controls

Project description:The human papillomavirus virus (HPV) is a proven cause of most human cervical cancers, and might have a role in other malignancies including vulva, skin, oesophagus, head and neck cancer. HPV has also been speculated to have a role in the pathogenesis of lung cancer. To validate the hypothesis of HPV involvement in small cell lung cancer pathogenesis we performed gene expression profile of transgenic mouse model of SCLC induced by HPV-16 E6/E7 oncoproteins. Gene expression profile of SCLC has been performed using Agilent whole mouse genome (4x44k) representing ~ 41000 genes and mouse transcripts. Samples were obtained from two HPV16-E6/E7 transgenic mouse model and from littermateM-bM-^@M-^Ys normal lung.
