Project description:To identify potential cell signaling pathways regulating the proliferative transition of Bmi1+ ISCs from highly proliferative to slow cycling, and also to identify influence for lineage differentiation, we performed bulk ATAC-Seq analyses of FACS-isolated EpCAM+ intestinal cells across developmental time points. Using differential chromatin accessibility analysis we identified enrichment of multiple pathways in the E12.5 population that progressively decreased at E17.5. We analyzed the dataset using identification of motif discovery within this dataset, we found enhanced utilization of transcription factors in pathways including the Hippo signaling pathway (Tead1, Tead2 and Tead4), a known pathway that regulates organ development and size. When we evaluated enrichment motifs for canonical Wnt-responsive loci, we identified occupancy peaking at E14.5, again consistent with transition of proliferative dependency on Bmi1+ to Lgr5+ ISCs. Global motif enrichment for Wnt-related targets was assessed using ChromVAR, which displayed a similar trend, with the canonical Wnt pathway signature peaking at E14.5 and E15.5 (e.g. Cdx2, Tcf4).

Project description:Background: The Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule (EpCAM) has been shown to be strongly expressed in human breast cancer and cancer stem cells and its overexpression has been supposed to support tumor progression and metastasis. However, effects of EpCAM overexpression on normal breast epithelial cells have never been studied before. Therefore, we analyzed effects of transient adenoviral overexpression of EpCAM on proliferation, migration and differentiation of primary human mammary epithelial cells (HMECs). METHODS: HMECs were transfected by an adenoviral system for transient overexpression of EpCAM. Thereafter, changes in cell proliferation and migration were studied using a real time measurement system. Target gene expression was evaluated by transcriptome analysis in proliferating and polarized HMEC cultures. A Chicken Chorioallantoic Membrane (CAM) xenograft model was used to study effects on in vivo growth of HMECs. RESULTS: EpCAM overexpression in HMECs did not significantly alter gene expression profile of proliferating or growth arrested cells. Proliferating HMECs displayed predominantly glycosylated EpCAM isoforms and were inhibited in cell proliferation and migration by upregulation of p27KIP1 and p53. HMECs with overexpression of EpCAM showed a down regulation of E-cadherin. Moreover, cells were more resistant to TGF-beta1 induced growth arrest and maintained longer capacities to proliferate in vitro. EpCAM overexpressing HMECs xenografts in chicken embryos showed hyperplastic growth, lack of lumen formation and increased infiltrates of the chicken leukocytes. CONCLUSIONS: EpCAM revealed oncogenic features in normal human breast cells by, inducing resistance to TGF-beta1-mediated growth arrest and supporting a cell phenotype with longer proliferative capacities in vitro. EpCAM overexpression resulted in hyperplastic growth in vivo. Thus, we suggest that EpCAM acts as a prosurvival factor counteracting terminal differentiation processes in normal mammary glands.

Differential expression was assessed with the moderated t-test (Bioconductor's limma package) with pairing of the samples by the donor. Raw p-values were adjusted for multiple hypothesis testing using the method from Benjamini and Hochberg for a strong control of the false discovery rate.

EPCAM and GFP over-expression in proliferating mammary epithelial cells from two donors (6 and 8). Expression levels between EPCAM and control samples were compared to determine whether, and to which extent EPCAM over-expression alters the gene expression profile of the cells.

Project description:EpCAM is frequently overexpressed in human invasive breast cancer. We reported EpCAM overexpression to be an independent prognostic marker for poor overall survival in node-positive breast cancer. We used microarrays in order to investigate changes of the transcriptome on EpCAM gene overexpression in human breast cancer cells Hs578T cells were found to express only very little EpCAM mRNA and protein in comparison to established and well characterized breast cancer cell lines such as MCF-7 or SK-BR-3. Hs578T cells were stably transfected with the EpCAM cDNA containing construct pIRESpuro3_EpCAM and the respective empty vector control.

EpCAM overexpression resulted in hyperplastic growth in vivo. Thus, we suggest that EpCAM acts as a prosurvival factor counteracting terminal differentiation processes in normal mammary glands. For each gene a representative transcript probe set was selected based on a score that combines average expression and variation of expression across all samples. Transcript probe sets with more than 4 probes were preferred. Differential expression analysis between EPCAM over-expressing and control cells (expressing GFP) was performed using a paired moderated t-test employing functions provided by Bioconductor's limma package. p-values were subsequently adjusted for multiple hypothesis testing using the method from Benjamini and Hochberg for a strong control of the false discovery rate.

Project description:How the intestinal tract develops a tolerance to foreign antigens is still largely unknown. Here we report that extracellular vesicles (EVs) with TGF-β1-dependent immunosuppressive activity are produced by intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) under physiological conditions. Transfer of these EVs into inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) mice induced by dextran sulfate sodium salt decreases IBD severity by inducing regulatory T cells and immunosuppressive dendritic cells. In contrast, decreased endogenous EV production promotes IBD development. IECs produce EVs with increased levels of TGF-β1 upon IBD development in an ERK-dependent manner. Furthermore, these EVs tend to localize in the intestinal tract associated with epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM). Knockdown of EpCAM in vivo increases the severity of murine IBD, and the protective effect of EVs from IECs with decreased EpCAM on murine IBD is blunted. Therefore, our study indicates that EVs from IECs participate in maintaining the intestinal tract immune balance.
