Project description:Ten-Eleven Translocation (TET1-3) dioxygenases oxidize 5-methylcytosine (5mC) in DNA to generate 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), 5-formylcytosine (5fC), and 5-carboxylcytosine (5caC), initiating DNA demethylation. Since their discovery in 2009, there have been contradictory reports regarding the roles of TET proteins in cancer. TET genes have been characterized as tumor suppressors because their expression levels are reduced in many human cancers including lymphoma, prostate, and pancreas, and TET2 gene mutations are common in hematological cancers. In contrast, TET1 was recently reported to be overexpressed in triple negative breast cancer and to act as a protooncogene in lung cancer. In the present study, we employed genetic approaches to directly address the function of TET1 protein in lung adenocarcinoma. We found that overexpression of TET1 in human lung adenocarcinoma (H441, H1975) cells decreased their proliferation and inhibited colony formation, cell migration, and 3D spheroid tumorigenesis. In contrast, TET1 knockout accelerated lung adenocarcinoma cell growth and promoted colony formation, cell migration, and 3D spheroid tumorigenesis. Transcriptomics and proteomics analyses revealed that TET1 overexpression was associated with increased prevalence of immune markers, primarily via activation of the TNF and NF-kB signaling pathways. Conversely, TET1 knockout in lung adenocarcinoma cells induced the expression of genes involved in cellular metabolism and cell growth. Our results are consistent with tumor suppressor role of TET1 gene in lung adenocarcinoma cells (H441, H1975) and reveal its possible role in activating antitumor immunity.

Project description:Epigenetic pathways that regulate DNA methylation and chromatin modifications are frequently found to be dysregulated in human cancers. The TET methylcytosine dioxygenase 1 (TET1) enzyme is an important regulator of hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) in embryonic stem cells, neural progenitors,adult cells and reprogrammed cells. Decreased expression of TET proteins and loss of 5hmC has been reported in many tumors, suggesting a critical role for the maintenance of this epigenetic modification in normal cellular function. However, loss of TET1 function in the etiology of cancer has not been directly investigated. Here, we show that deletion of the Tet1 gene promotes the development of B cell lymphoma. Tet1 is required for maintaining normal levels of 5hmC, preventing aberrant DNA hypermethylation and for the regulation of transcriptional programs involved in B-cell lineage specification, chromosome maintenance, and DNA repair. Progenitor B cells in the absence of Tet1 accumulate DNA damage and whole-exome sequencing of Tet1-deficient tumors revealed a high correlation of mutations with those most frequently found in Non-Hodgkin B cell lymphoma (B-NHL) patients. In addition, we show that the TET1 gene is deleted, hypermethylated and transcriptionally silenced in B-NHL patients. These findings provide the first in vivo evidence of TET1 function as a tumor suppressor of hematopoietic malignancy. We did hydroxymethylation tests for two wild type mice and two Tet1 knockout mice.

Project description:Ten-Eleven Translocation 1 (TET1) is a member of methylcytosine dioxygenase, which catalyse 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) that promote the demethylation process. The diminished expression of TET1 protein and 5-hmC in many tumors indicate a critical role for the maintenance of cell stability. However, role of TET1 in bladder cancer development remains unclear. Here we found that TET1 expression was downregulated in bladder cancer tissues compared with normal urothelium and was inversely related to patient overall survival. TET1 silencing in bladder cancer cells increase proliferation and inhibited cell migration and invasion while its re-expression inhibits their proliferation and the growth of tumor xenografts. Furthermore, we found that TET1 binds to the promoter of the TSG to maintain its hypomethylated which interacts with β-catenin and suppress its nuclear translocation, thus inhibiting β-catenin transcriptional activity and downstream genes. In conclusion, TET1 acts as a tumor suppressor gene in bladder cancer cells by suppressing β-catenin signaling. This study may facilitate efforts to therapeutic strategy for patients with bladder cancer.

Project description:Surveillance of DNA methylation in mammals is critical for genome stability and epigenetic regulation. The discovery of the ten-eleven translocation (TET) proteins catalyzing the oxidation from 5-methylcytosine (5mC) to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), 5-formylcytosine (5fC), and 5-carboxylcytosine (5caC) revolutionized the understanding of DNA methylation dynamics. Interestingly, in recent years evidence accumulated that TET1 also harbours non-catalytic functions. However, the role and mechanism of TET1 DNA demethylation independent functions still remain poorly understood. Here, we use genome engineering and quantitative multi-omics approaches to dissect the non-catalytic role of TET1. Strikingly, we find that the majority of transcriptional regulation depends on non-catalytic functions of TET1. To gain insights into possible mechanisms by which TET1 regulates transcription independent of DNA demethylation, we asked if the loss of TET1 is accompanied by changes in the histone modificaiton landscape. To this end, we compared the relative abundances of core histone modifications between Tet1 KO, Tet1 CM and WT mESCs using quantitative LC-MS/MS analysis. Surprisingly, we observed a profound global reduction of pH4Kac and H4K20me3 as well as H3K27me3 in Tet1 KO mESC. Vice versa, the monomethylation states of the latter two residues, H3K27me1 and H4K20me1 were significantly increased in Tet1 KO. Similar to the results from the transcriptome data, most of these changes were specific to Tet1 KO cells.

Project description:Loss of Tet1 expression causes global 5mC and 5hmC changes in stem and progenitor cells in mice and causes enhanced Pro-B cell self-renewal, increased DNA damage and B-lymphomageneis. In this study we performed microarray analysis of total LSK cells from WT and Tet1 KO mice. These results revealed that genes regulated byTet1 in LSKs included Histones, DNA repair enzymes and B-lineage specific factors. LSK cells were purified from the bone marrow of 6-month old WT and Tet1 KO mice . RNA was extracted using RNeasy kit (Qiagen) and hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays. Microarray profiling of LSK cells in WT and Tet1 KO mice.

Project description:Precise regulation of DNA methylation in mammals is critical for genome stability and epigenetic regulation. The discovery of the ten-eleven translocation (TET) proteins catalyzing the oxidation from 5-methylcytosine (5mC) to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), 5-formylcytosine (5fC), and 5-carboxylcytosine (5caC) revolutionized the perspective on the complexity and regulation of DNA modifications. Despite accumulating knowledge about the role of TET1, it remains unclear to what extent these can be attributed to its catalytic activity. Here, we use genome engineering and quantitative multi-omics approaches to dissect the role and mechanism of TET1 in mESCs. Our study identifies TET1 as an essential interaction hub for multiple chromatin modifying complexes and as a global regulator of histone modifications. Strikingly, we find that the majority of transcriptional regulation depends on non-catalytic functions of TET1. Moreover, we show that the establishment of H3K9me3 and H4K20me3 at ERV1, ERVK, and ERVL is mediated by TET1 independent of DNA demethylation. We provide evidence that repression of endogenous retroviruses depends on the interaction between TET1 and SIN3A. In summary, we demonstrate that the non-catalytic functions of TET1 are critical for regulation of gene expression and the silencing of endogenous retroviruses in mESCs.
