Project description:Background—YAP, the nuclear effector of Hippo signaling, regulates cellular growth and survival in multiple organs, including the heart, by interacting with TEAD sequence specific DNA-binding proteins. Recent studies showed that YAP stimulates cardiomyocyte proliferation and survival. However, the direct transcriptional targets through which YAP exerts its effects are poorly defined. Methods and Results—To identify genes directly regulated by YAP in cardiomyocytes, we combined differential gene expression analysis in YAP gain- and loss-of-function with genome-wide identification of YAP bound loci using chromatin immunoprecipitation and high throughput sequencing. This screen identified Pik3cb, encoding p110β, a catalytic subunit of phosphoinositol-3-kinase (PI3K), as a candidate YAP effector that promotes cardiomyocyte proliferation and survival. We validated YAP and TEAD occupancy of a conserved enhancer within the first intron of Pik3cb, and show that this enhancer drives YAP-dependent reporter gene expression. Yap gain- and loss-of-function studies indicated that YAP is necessary and sufficient to activate the PI3K-Akt pathway. Like Yap, Pik3cb gain-of-function stimulated cardiomyocyte proliferation, and Pik3cb knockdown dampened the YAP mitogenic activity. Reciprocally, Yap loss-of-function impaired heart function and reduced cardiomyocyte proliferation and survival, all of which were significantly rescued by AAV-mediated Pik3cb expression. Conclusion—Pik3cb is a crucial direct target of YAP, through which the YAP activates PI3K-AKT pathway and regulates cardiomyocyte proliferation and survival. Yap wild type ChIPseq and input

Project description:Cardiomyocyte (CM) loss after injury results in adverse remodelling and fibrosis, which inevitably lead to heart failure. Neuregulin-ErbB2 and Hippo-Yap signaling pathways are key mediators of CM proliferation and regeneration although the crosstalk between these pathways is unclear. Here, we demonstrate in mice that temporal over-expression (OE) of activated ErbB2 in CMs promotes cardiac regeneration in a heart failure model. Cellularly, OE CMs present an EMT-like regenerative response involving cytoskeletal reprograming, migration, ECM turnover, and displacement. Molecularly, we identified Yap as a critical mediator of ErbB2 signaling. In OE CMs, Yap interacts with nuclear envelope and cytoskeletal components, reflective of the altered mechanic state elicited by ErbB2. Hippo-independent activating phosphorylation on Yap at S352 and S274 were enriched in OE CMs, peaking during metaphase. Viral overexpression of Yap phospho-mutants dampened the proliferative competence of OE CMs. Taken together, we demonstrate a potent ErbB2-mediated Yap mechanosensory signaling involving EMT-like characteristics, resulting in heart regeneration.

Project description:The Hippo signaling pathway is implicated in regulation of liver size and dysregulation of this pathway contributes to tumorigenesis. The transcriptional targets and downstream pathways of the Hippo pathway effector YAP that contribute to liver growth have yet to be well-characterized. We examined the liver transcriptome in response to YAP overexpression and identify the ErbB signaling pathway as a mediator of cell growth downstream of YAP. ErbB2 is transcriptionally regulated by YAP in both the mouse liver and in HepG2 human hepatoma cells. Knockdown of YAP or pharmacological inhibition with verteporfin reduced ERBB2 levels in HepG2 cells. Analysis of ChIP-seq data revealed enrichment of the transcription factor TEAD4 at the ERBB2 promoter. Using luciferase reporter and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays, we show that YAP and TEAD directly bind to and activate a regulatory element in the ErbB2 promoter in both the mouse liver and HepG2 cells. Functionally, knockdown of YAP reduced EGF-induced ERBB2-mediated HepG2 cell proliferation and PI3K/AKT activation. Our findings highlight a mechanism by which YAP exerts its effects on liver cell proliferation through the ErbB signaling pathway by directly regulating the transcription of ErbB2.

Project description:Loss of functional cardiomyocytes is a major determinant of heart failure after myocardial infarction. Previous high throughput screening studies have identified a series of microRNAs that induce cardiomyocyte proliferation and stimulate cardiac regeneration after myocardial infarction. Here we investigate the mechanism of action of the top ten most effective of these miRNAs. Analysis of the transcriptional profile of miRNA-treated cardiomyocytes revealed an involvement of the Hippo-YAP pathway in their action. All the investigated miRNAs activated YAP-mediated transcription, nuclear localization of active YAP and increased expression of YAP responsive genes. In particular, miR-199a-3p, one of the most effective miRNAs, directly downregulated two mRNA targets impinging on the Hippo pathway, the upstream inhibitory kinase TAOK1and the E3 ubiquitin ligase destroying YAP, b-TrCP. Most of the miRNAs that promoted proliferation also modulated the dynamics of the cardiomyocyte actin cytoskeleton. In particular, four miRNAs targeted Cofilin2 and increased the ratio between polymerized F-actin and monomeric G-actin. Cells treated with the most effective miRNAs (including miR-199a-3p) were round-shaped, with formation of gross bundles of actin fibers at the cytoplasm periphery. During mitosis, these miRNA-treated cardiomyocytes displayed disruption of the sarcomeric architecture. Downregulation of Cofilin2 itself was sufficient to promote cardiomyocyte proliferation, activate nuclear translocation of YAP and stimulate transcription of TEAD-responsive genes. Inhibition of F-actin polymerization decreased YAP activation. Collectively, these results indicate that activation of YAP and modulation of the acting cytoskeleton are major components of the pro-proliferative effect of miR-199a-3p and other miRNAs inducing cardiomyocyte proliferation

Project description:Splicing dysregulations extensively occur in cancers, yet the biological consequences of such alterations are mostly undefined. Here we report that the Hippo-YAP signaling, a key pathway that regulates cell proliferation and organ size, is under control of a new splicing switch. We show that TEAD4, the transcription factor that mediates Hippo-YAP signaling, undergoes alternative splicing facilitated by the tumor suppressor RBM4, producing a truncated isoform, TEAD4-S, which lacks N-terminal DNA-binding domain but maintains YAP-interaction domain. TEAD4-S is located in both nucleus and cytoplasm, acting as a dominant negative isoform to YAP activity. Consistently, TEAD4-S is reduced in cancer cells, and its re-expression suppresses cancer cell proliferation and migration, inhibiting tumor growth in xenograft mouse model. Furthermore, TEAD4-S is reduced in human cancers, and patients with elevated TEAD4-S levels have improved survival. Altogether these data reveal a novel RBM4-mediated splicing switch that serves to fine-tune Hippo-YAP pathway. Cell lines stably expressing YAP, YAP/TEAD4-S, YAP/TEAD4-FL, YAP/RBM4 and control vector were created, and the total RNA was purified from the cells using TRIzol reagents. The polyadenylated RNAs were purified for construction of sequencing library using kapa TruSeq Total RNA Sample Prep kits (UNC High Throughput Sequencing Facility).
