Project description:To identify ATOH8 and SMAD3 form a novel transcriptional complex, we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq). Analyses of their genome occupancy profiling reveals that their genome-wide binding patterns are highly similar and they co-occupy a number of same genes. CCNE2 and CDK1 are their common downstream target genes.

Project description:Atoh8 is a transcription factor of the basic-helix-loop-helix (bHLH) family that is expressed in multiple tissues during embryonic development but whose specific functions remain unknown. The gene encoding Atoh8 is induced by various lineage- determining bHLH transcription factors in cell culture, suggesting a possible common role of this gene in multiple bHLH-driven differentiation programs. In the pancreas, the pro-endocrine bHLH factors Neurogenin3 (Neurog3) and NeuroD1 activate Atoh8 expression. Moreover, Atoh8 is expressed in the embryonic pancreas confirming its participation in the pancreatic transcriptional cascade. This work aims at gaining insight into the molecular function of Atoh8 during the endocrine differentiation program initiated by Neurog3 in the pancreas. To this aim, we have generated a recombinant adenovirus encoding an Atoh8-specific shRNA (Ad-shAtoh8) and used it to down-regulate expression of the Atoh8 gene in Neurog3-expressing pancreatic ductal cells (mPAC), a cellular model of endocrine cell differentiation. Thus, we have compared global changes in gene expression profiles between cells treated with Ad-Neurog3+shControl and cells treated with Ad-Neurog3+shAtoh8 using Affymetrix microarrays. Our results show that Atoh8 silencing significantly affects the expression of 293 genes in Neurog3-expressing mPAC cells. Gene Ontology analysis has revealed cell cycle as the biological function most significantly represented among the modified genes. These results uncover a potential function of Math6 as a regulator of cell cycle progression and provide novel insights into the link between Neurog3 and the regulation of the cell cycle. mPAC cells (mouse pancreatic duct cells) overexpressing Neurogenin3 were divided in 2 groups according to the shRNA encoded by the recombinant adenoviruses used: 1) Scramble shRNA (control for the infection effect), 2) Atonal Homolog 8-specific shRNA. Experiment was performed three independent times (3 independent biological replicates).

Project description:WWOX expression is lost during tumor progression in many human malignancies including breast cancer. To understand the effects of loss of WWOX expression we analyzed the consequences of its silencing in normal human breast cells (MCF10F). WWOX silencing led to the formation of larger cell colonies, increased cell motility and decreased cell attachment. WWOX silenced cells demonstrated deregulated expression on genes involved in cell cycle, DNA damage response and cell motility. We detected an enrichment of targets activated by the SMAD3 transcription factor. Most notably expression of ANGPTL4, FST, PTHLH and SERPINE1 were all significantly increased upon WWOX silencing. Upregulation of these genes can be reversed by re-expressing WWOX in the previously silenced cells thus suggesting an inverse correlation between WWOX protein expression and SMAD3 transcriptional activity. Importantly, we demonstrate that WWOX physically interacts with SMAD3 protein via WW domain 1, that WWOX expression dramatically decreases SMAD3 occupancy at the ANGPTL4 and SERPINE1 promoters and significantly quenches activation of a TGFM-NM-2 responsive reporter (3TP-LUX). Furthermore, WWOX expression leads to intracellular redistribution of SMAD3 protein levels redirecting protein availability from the nuclear to the cytoplasmic compartment. Interestingly, meta-analysis of gene expression breast cancer datasets indicate that WWOX and ANGPTL4 expression, encoding a secreted protein of key relevance in breast cancer lung metastatic cells, are inversely correlated and the WWOXlo/ANGPTL4hi cluster of tumors are enriched in triple-negative and basal-like sub-types. In summary, we demonstrate that WWOX modulates SMAD3 signaling in breast cells via direct WW-domain binding and potential cytoplasmic sequestration of SMAD3 protein. Since loss of WWOX expression increases with breast cancer progression and it behaves as an inhibitor of SMAD3 transcriptional activity these observations may help explain, at least in part, the paradoxical pro-tumorigenic effects of TGFM-NM-2 signaling in advanced breast cancer. We compared two independent shRNAs: shWWOX-A and shWWOX-B with 3 biological replicates each one, targeting different regions of the WWOX transcript as a means of ruling out any potential off-target effects.

Project description:The basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors of the Drosophila’s atonal-related superfamily Neurogenin3 (Neurog3) and NeuroD1 promote endocrine differentiation in the gastrointestinal tract. Atonal Homolog 8 (Atoh8/Math6) is a newly identified member of the atonal-related family whose expression is induced by Neurog3 and NeuroD1 in cell culture, indicating a possible role for this gene in the endocrine differentiation program downstream of these two pro-endocrine factors. Intriguingly, available experimental evidence based on a reduced number of genes suggests that Atoh8 may negatively regulate Neurog3-targeting events. In this study, we have analyzed global changes in gene expression profiles upon exogenous expression of Atoh8 alone or in combination with Neurog3 in mouse pancreatic duct (mPAC) cells. These cells activate neuroendocrine-specific gene expression in response to Neurog3 and NeuroD1 and thus serve as an optimal model to evaluate the proendocrine activity of Atoh8. We have compared transcriptional profiles between mPAC cells treated with a recombinant adenovirus expressing Atoh8 (Ad-Atoh8) or a control adenovirus encoding B-galactosidase (Ad-Bgal), and between cells treated with Ad-Neurog3+Ad-Bgal or cells treated with Ad-Neurog3+Ad-Atoh8. The results obtained show that Atoh8 exhibits a very modest transcriptional activity in these cells thus confirming that Atoh8 does not function as a proendocrine gene. Furthermore, our data also confirm the ability of Atoh8 to block Neurog3-dependent transcriptional activation events. However, since repression is only seen for a small subset of Neurog3 gene targets, we discard a general role of Atoh8 as a negative regulator of Neurog3 pro-endocrine activity.

Project description:Gene expression profiling was carried out in six (wild type, β2SP+/-, β2SP-/-, SMAD3+/-, SMAD3-/- and β2SP+/-/ SMAD3+/-) different mouse knockout embryonic fibroblast (MEF) cells. Beta-2-spectrin (β2SP) is a dynamic intracellular non-pleckstrin homology (PH)-domain protein that belongs to a family of polypeptides that have been implicated in conferring cell polarity. Spectrins have been linked to multiple signaling pathways, including cell cycle regulation, DNA repair and TGFβ signaling. In this study, we report a major role of the TGFβ/Smad3 adaptor β2-Spectrin in conserving genomic integrity from alcohol-induced DNA damage and describe a novel pathway that protects genomes from genotoxic stresses. To determine the mechanism for the oncogenic switch, and whether it is related to the role of β2SP in TGF-β signaling transduction or secondary to its cytoskeletal functions, we analyzed disruption of two elements of the TGF-β pathway by generating double heterozygous Sptbn1+/−/Smad3+/− mice.
