The Interplay between K63-linked Polyubiquitinated DDX17 and m6A-modified miRNAs Regulates Hypoxia-induced Tumor Initiation

ABSTRACT: DEAD-box RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) play a significant role in RNA metabolism to achieve cellular homeostasis, including miRNA biogenesis and transcription. Hypoxia induces stemness cell-like characteristics in cancer cells and promotes malignant progression. Despite the fact that hypoxia can induce the changes in protein and RNA modification, thereby regulating downstream gene expressions, how modifications at different molecular layers interplay with each other are poorly understood. Here we show that hypoxia induces HectH9-mediated K63-linked polyubiquitination of the DEAD-box protein DDX17 as well as reduces N6-methyladenosine (m6A) marks in pri-miRNAs. While m6A potentiates DDX17 binding to pri-miRNAs, decreased m6A modifications of pri-miRNAs and increased polyubiquitination of DDX17 under hypoxia lead to decreased DDX17 binding to pri-miRNAs binding. These events enhance the association of DDX17 with the ubiquitin receptor p300 and lead to a decrease in miRNA biogenesis, especially for miRNAs regulating stemness and stemness-related genes. In addition, polyubiquitinated DDX17 together with p300 upregulates H3K56Ac levels on the stemness and stemness-related genes, resulting in enhancement of tumor initiating ability. Post-transcriptionally, decreased miRNA production, including those targeting stemness genes or stemness-related genes, also facilitates tumor initiation. Together, hypoxia triggers DDX17 poly-ubiquitination, which orchestrates dual mechanisms to increase tumor initiating ability and promote tumor progression.

Expression data from Glioma-Initiating Cells (GICs) cultured under hypoxia and normoxia

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive primary brain tumor in adults, with glioma initiating cells (GICs) implicated to be critical for tumor progression and resistance to therapy. The hypoxic tumor microenvironment has been shown to play an important role to maintain the GICs; however, the mechanisms regulating responses of GICs to hypoxia remain poorly understood. We used microarray to to detail the global change of gene expression in GICs cultured under hypoxia compared to normoxia and identified de-regulated genes during hypoxia. CD133+ D456MG GICs were cultured under 1% O2 or 20% O2 for 12 hours. Then RNA was extracted and gene expression was profiled by microarray.

KK-LC-1 as a feasible therapeutic target to eliminate ALDH+ stem cells in triple negative breast cancer

Project description:Failure to achieve complete elimination of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) stem cells after adjuvant therapy is associated with poor outcomes. Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (ALDH1) is a marker of breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs), and its enzymatic activity regulates tumor stemness. Identifying upstream targets to control ALDH+ cells may facilitate TNBC tumor suppression. Here, we show that KK-LC-1 determines the stemness of TNBC ALDH+ cells via binding with FAT1 and subsequently promoting its ubiquitination and degradation. This compromised the Hippo pathway and led to nuclear translocation of YAP1 and ALDH1A1 transcription. These findings identified the KK-LC-1-FAT1-Hippo-ALDH1A1 pathway in TNBC ALDH+ cells as a therapeutic target. To reverse the malignancy due to KK-LC-1 expression, we employed a novel computational approach and discovered Z839878730 (Z8) as an small-molecule inhibitor which may disrupt KK-LC-1 and FAT1 binding. We demonstrate that Z8 suppressed TNBC tumor growth via a mechanism that reactivated the Hippo pathway and decreased TNBC ALDH+ cell stemness and viability.

Matrix Gla Protein acts as a driver of stemness and tumor initiation in ovarian cancer

Project description:Ovarian cancer (OC) displays the highest mortality among gynecological tumors, mainly due to early peritoneal dissemination, the high frequency of tumor relapse following primary debulking and the development of chemoresistance. All these events are thought to be initiated and sustained by a subpopulation of neoplastic cells, termed ovarian cancer stem cells (OCSC), that are endowed with self-renewing and tumor-initiating properties. This implies that interfering with OCSC function should offer novel therapeutic perspectives to defeat OC progression. To this aim, a better understanding of the molecular and functional makeup of OCSC in clinically relevant model systems is essential. We have profiled the transcriptome of OCSC vs. their bulk cell counterpart from a panel of patient-derived OC cell cultures. This revealed that Matrix Gla Protein (MGP), classically known as a calcification-preventing factor in cartilage and blood vessels, is markedly enriched in OCSC. Functional assays showed that MGP confers several stemness-associated traits to OC cells, including a transcriptional reprogramming. Patient-derived organotypic cultures pointed to the peritoneal microenvironment as a major inducer of MGP expression in OC cells. Furthermore, MGP was found to be necessary and sufficient for tumor initiation in OC mouse models, by shortening tumor latency and increasing dramatically the frequency of tumor-initiating cells. Mechanistically, MGP-driven OC stemness was mediated by the stimulation of Hedgehog signaling, in particular through the induction of the Hedgehog effector GLI1, thus highlighting a novel MGP/Hedgehog pathway axis in OCSC. Finally, MGP expression was found to correlate with poor prognosis in OC patients, and was increased in tumor tissue after chemotherapy, supporting the clinical relevance of our findings. Thus, MGP is a novel driver in OCSC pathophysiology, with a major role in stemness and in tumor initiation.

Growth inhibition of ovarian tumor-initiating cells by niclosamide

Project description:The gene expression profile in treated CP70 side population spheroid cells (CP70sps cells) was analyzed to investigate the effect of niclosamide inhibition on ovarian tumor-initiating cells. CP70sps cells are isolated and characterized as one kind of ovarian tumor-initiating cells, and they show stemness properties and drug resistance capacity. According gene expression profiles and mechanistic analysis, all evidences revealed niclosamide disrupted multiple metabolic pathways affecting biogenetics, biogenesis and redox regulation. These studies support niclosamide as a promising therapeutic agent for ovarian cancer. CP70sps cells were treated with niclosamide for 0, 2, 4 and 6 hours respectively, and then cells were harvested and analyzed their gene expression profiles.

Distinct responses of patient-derived GBM cell lines to hypoxia

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common primary malignant cancer of the central nervous system. Hypoxia, low oxygen, has been linked to GBM infiltration and aggressive tumor progression leading to poor patient outcome. Hypoxia-induced pathways are activated by the stabilization of HIF1-α, which upregulates genes related to reprogramming metabolism, angiogenesis, cell trafficking, and cell survival. However, underlying mechanisms of HIF-1α involvement with GBM cell specific pathways is not fully understood. Here, we show that hypoxia can induce specific genes dependent on GBM subtype. In a in vitro migration assay, we screened eight patient-derived GBM stem cell lines. Two lines, UCA and UNB, were found to induce an increased migration ability in response to hypoxia. By RNA bulk sequencing, we identified key specific genes that were upregulated in each cell line that were not shared between them. Furthermore, we found that this data set correlates to previous single-cell RNA sequencing findings of GBM having differentiated transcriptional subtypes. Our results demonstrate how hypoxia induces a specific response in tumor cells by activating genes for survival and tumor progression. Our study forms the basis for future approaches to characterize top candidate genes and elucidate their role in tumor survival in response to hypoxia. Inhibition of these top candidate genes can be a strategy used to dampen hypoxia pro-tumor properties and may lead to better outcomes for GBM patients.

Extracellular-acidosis restricts one-carbon metabolism and preserves T cell stemness

Project description:The accumulation of acidic metabolic waste products within the tumor microenvironment profoundly inhibits effector functions of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs). However, it is unclear whether extracellular-acidosis impacts T cell metabolic fitness and differentiation status. Here, we surprisingly found that prolonged acid exposure reprogrammed T cell intracellular metabolism and mitochondrial fitness, and preserved T cell stemness. Elevated extracellular-acidosis impaired methionine uptake and metabolism via downregulating SLC7A5, therefore altering H3K27me3 deposition at the promoters of crucial T cell stemness genes. These changes promoted the maintenance of a “stem-like memory” state and improved long-term in vivo persistence and anti-tumor efficacy. Our findings not only reveal the unexpected roles of extracellular-acidosis in the maintenance of stem-like properties of T cells, but also advance our understanding of the direct involvement of methionine metabolism in T cell stemness.

Characterization of R-loop-interacting proteins in embryonic stem cells reveals roles in ribosomal RNA processing and gene expression

Project description:Chromatin-associated RNAs have diverse roles in the nucleus. However, their mechanisms of action are poorly understood, in part due to the inability to identify proteins that specifically associate with chromatin-bound RNAs. Here, we address this problem for a subset of chromatin-associated RNAs that form R-loops—RNA-DNA hybrid structures that include a displaced strand of single-stranded DNA. R-loops generally form co-transcriptionally and have important roles in regulation of gene expression, immunoglobulin class switching, and other processes. However, unresolved R-loops can lead to DNA damage and chromosome instability. To identify factors that may bind and potentially regulate R-loop accumulation or mediate R-loop-dependent functions, we used a comparative immunoprecipitation/mass spectrometry approach, with and without RNA-protein crosslinking, to identify a stringent set of R-loop-binding proteins in mouse embryonic stem cells. We identified 365 R-loop-interacting proteins, which were highly enriched for proteins with predicted RNA-binding functions. We characterized several R-loop-interacting proteins of the DEAD-box family of RNA helicases and found that these proteins localize to the nucleolus and, to a lesser degree, the nucleus. Consistent with their localization patterns, we found that these helicases are required for ribosomal RNA processing and regulation of gene expression. Surprisingly, depletion of these helicases resulted in misregulation of highly overlapping sets of protein-coding genes, including many genes that function in differentiation and development. We conclude that R-loop-interacting DEAD-box helicases have non-redundant roles that are critical for maintaining the normal embryonic stem cell transcriptome.

Expression data for KDM1B knockdown in Glioma-Initiating Cells (GICs)

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive primary brain tumor in adults, with glioma initiating cells (GICs) implicated to be critical for tumor progression and resistance to therapy. KDM1B is involved in regulating GICs' responses to hypoxia, since over-expression of KDM1B delays the cell growth under hypoxia while knocking-down of KDM1B in GICs promotes their survival and tumorigenic abilities.
