Project description:MED12 is an X-chromosome member of the Mediator complex that is a key regulator of tissue specific gene expression and moderates intracellular signaling via multiple developmental pathways. Sequence variations in the carboxy-terminus of MED12, which contains a PQL and Opa domain, are associated with X-linked mental retardation behavioral syndromes and schizophrenia. Unfortunately, the mechanism(s) through which MED12 sequence variation in the carboxy-terminus could alter vulnerability to neurodevelomental and neuropsychiatric illnesses is yet unclear. In order to elucidate a better understanding of this process, we examined the role of the MED12 carboxy-terminus in cell cycle and gene expression with full-length and domain deleted overexpression constructs and RNA interference in HEK293 cells. Our microarray data show a set of genes differentially expressed in the experimental conditions versus the GFP control. The top 50 most differentially expressed genes in the experimental conditions versus the GFP control also show that MED12 expression level differentially affects stress response and transcriptional regulation pathways. These results are consistent with prior studies showing that MED12 has a key role in determining neuronal cell fate and our theoretical understanding of the biological basis of psychosis. They also lend further insight upon the pathways through which MED12 exerts its effects upon differentiation and disease pathogenesis, which may one day lead to new approaches to the treatment of MED12-related disorders. 12 samples were analyzed, being comprised of four conditions with three biological replicates. Comparisons were made between the GFP control to experimental condition (i.e. GFP vs MED12 FL; GFP vs MED12 PQL/Opa; and GFP vs MED12 shRNA 5)

Project description:Uterine leiomyoma (LM) is the most common tumor in women. Estrogen and progesterone, via their receptors ERα and PR, play essential roles in LM growth. Mediator complex subunit 12 (MED12) mutations occur in 70% of all LM and are thought to drive tumor growth in a steroid hormone-dependent manner; however, the mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we performed ChIP-seq (ERα, PR, and MED12) and RNA-seq on LM expressing mutant MED12 (mut-MED12) or wild-type MED12 and matched myometrium. Mut-MED12 altered PR and chromatin interaction landscapes, with significant PR-binding site loss in proximal promoter regions in mut-MED12 LM. Integration of cistrome and transcriptome data identified tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO2) as a PR and MED12 target gene, which was aberrantly upregulated in mut-MED12 LM. Kynurenine, the catabolic product of TDO2, was significantly elevated in mut-MED12 LM. Tryptophan or kynurenine treatment of primary LM cells activated the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) pathway, increased cell proliferation, and inhibited apoptosis; blocking the TDO2-kynurenine-AHR pathway by siRNA knockdown or pharmacologic inhibition abolished these effects. Mut-MED12 LM cells showed higher sensitivity to these treatments. These findings suggest that activation of the TDO2-kynurenine-AHR pathway in mut-MED12 LM induces tumor growth, and may inform the development of targeted treatments and precision medicine in LM.

Project description:Here, the goal of our study was to determine the protein-protein interactome of MED12 in resting and activated human T-cells. We immunoprecipitated endogenous MED12 and evaluated the protein interactome in comparison to an isotype-matched IgG as a control.

Project description:For a brief but critical period post-fertilization, the mammalian embryo is entirely dependent on maternal products inherited from the oocyte. Previous research showed that oocyte-specific loss of Med12, an X-linked gene and Mediator complex subunit, leads to female sterility despite normal folliculogenesis and ovulation. Here, we show that loss of maternal Med12 has minimal effect on the oocyte transcriptome and does not manifest in embryonic lethality until post-implantation. Implants derived from Med12-null oocytes demonstrate abnormal placentation at E9.5, with an overabundance of trophoblast giant cells (TGC). This phenotype associates with downregulation of trophoblast pluripotency markers (e.g. Cdx2) and activation of drivers of TGC identity (e.g. Stra13) in the E7.5 extraembryonic ectoderm, revealing a previously undescribed role for Med12 in trophoblast pluripotency maintenance. Notably, we find consistently low Med12 expression in embryos derived from Med12-null oocytes, potentially due to programmed paternal X chromosome inactivation (XCI). To isolate the consequences of maternal Med12 depletion, we introduced an autosomal Med12 transgene and show that embryonic expression of the transgene rescues development of Med12-null oocytes. We conclude that oocyte-specific deletion of Med12 produces a maternal-zygotic double knock-out in extraembryonic tissues due to paternal XCI, leading to loss of pluripotency in the trophoblast, placental malformation, and embryonic death.

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most lethal cancers with limited treatment options, including checkpoint blockade (ICB) immunotherapy. Epigenetic dysregulation is a defining feature of tumorigenesis and contributes to immune escape. However, little is known about whether and how epigenetic regulators evade immune surveillance in PDAC. Here, we identified Med12, a subunit of RNA polymerase II, as a mediator of immune escape in PDAC with in vivo CRISPR-Cas9 Screening. In murine PDAC models, Med12 loss effectively promoted infiltration and cytotoxicity of CD8+ T cells and NK cells，thereby sensitized to ICB and led to a marked extension of survival. Mechanistically, Med12 loss derepressed endogenous retroelements via impairing H3K9me3 and increasing H3K27Ac modification, triggering cytosolic RNA-sensing and DNA-sensing pathways as well as the type I interferon pathways. Moreover, Med12 depletion induced H3K27Ac gain in the Med12-binding domains, further enhanced the interferon-related genes transcription. Our results demonstrated the role of Med12 in suppressing tumor-intrinsic immunogenicity, thus provided a potential target or marker for immunotherapy of PDAC.
