Project description:Chemokine signaling is important for the seeding of different sites by hematopoietic stem cells during development. Serum Response Factor (SRF) controls multiple genes governing adhesion and migration, mainly by recruiting members of the Myocardin-Related Transcription Factor (MRTF) family of G-actin regulated cofactors. We used vav-iCre to inactivate MRTF-SRF signaling early during hematopoietic development. In both Srf- and Mrtf-deleted animals, hematopoiesis in fetal liver and spleen is intact, but does not become established in fetal bone marrow. Srf-null HSC/Ps (hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells) fail to effectively engraft in transplantation experiments, exhibiting normal proximal signaling responses to SDF-1, but reduced adhesiveness, F-actin assembly, and reduced motility. Srf-null HSC/Ps fail to polarise in response to SDF-1, and cannot migrate through restrictive membrane pores to SDF-1 or Scf in vitro. Mrtf-null HSC/Ps were also defective in chemotactic responses to SDF-1. MRTF-SRF signaling is thus critical for the response to chemokine signaling during hematopoietic development. Strand specific RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) in sorted WT and SRF deleted LSK cells with or without a 30 minute SDF stimulation and validation by qRT-PCR

Project description:Serum response factor (SRF) is a ubiquitously expressed transcription factor that is essential for brain development and function. SRF activity is controlled by two competing classes of coactivators, myocardin-related transcription factors (MRTF) and ternary complex factors, which introduce specificity into gene expression programs. Here, we explored the MRTF-mediated regulatory mechanism in mouse cortical neurons. Using gene-reporter assays and pharmacological and genetic approaches in isolated mouse cortical neurons, we found that cyclase-associated protein 1 (CAP1) repressed neuronal MRTF-SRF activity. CAP1 promoted cytosolic retention of MRTF by controlling cytosolic G-actin levels that required its helical folded domain and its CARP domain. This function of CAP1 was not redundant with that of its homolog CAP2 and was independent of cofilin1 and actin-depolymerizing factor. Deep RNA sequencing and mass spectrometry in cerebral cortex lysates from CAP1 knockout (CAP1-KO) mice supported the in vivo relevance for the CAP1-actin-MRTF-SRF signalling axis. Our study identified CAP1 as a repressor of neuronal gene expression and led to the identification of likely MRTF-SRF target genes in the developing cerebral cortex, whose dysregulation may contribute to impaired formation of neuronal networks in CAP1-KO mice. Together with our previous studies that implicated CAP1 in actin dynamics in axonal growth cones or excitatory synapses, we established CAP1 as a crucial actin regulator in neurons.

Project description:Myocardin-Related Transcription Factors A and B (MRTF-A and MRTF-B) are highly homologous proteins that function as powerful coactivators of serum response factor (SRF), a ubiquitously expressed transcription factor essential for cardiac development. The SRF/MRTF complex binds to CArG boxes found in the control regions of genes that regulate cytoskeletal dynamics and muscle contraction, among other processes. While SRF is required for heart development and function, the role of MRTFs in the developing or adult heart has not been explored. Through cardiac-specific deletion of MRTF alleles in mice, we show that either MRTF-A or MRTF-B is dispensable for cardiac development and function, whereas deletion of both MRTF-A and MRTF-B causes a spectrum of structural and functional cardiac abnormalities. Defects observed in MRTF-A/B null mice ranged from reduced cardiac contractility and adult onset heart failure to neonatal lethality accompanied by sarcomere disarray. RNA-seq analysis on neonatal hearts identified the most altered pathways in MRTF double knockout hearts as being involved in cytoskeletal organization. Together, these findings demonstrate redundant but essential roles of the MRTFs in maintenance of cardiac structure and function and as indispensible links in cardiac cytoskeletal gene regulatory networks.

Project description:Dormant chemotherapy-resistant leukemia cells can survive for an extended period before relapse. Nevertheless, the mechanisms underlying the development of chemoresistance in vivo remain unclear. Using intravital bone imaging, we characterized the behavior of murine acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells (C1498) in the bone marrow before and after chemotherapy with cytarabine. Proliferative C1498 cells exhibited high motility in the bone marrow. Cytarabine treatment impaired the motility of residual C1498 cells. However, C1498 cells regained their migration potential after relapse. RNA sequencing revealed that cytarabine treatment promoted MRTF-SRF pathway activation. MRTF inhibition using CCG-203971 augmented the anti-tumor effects of chemotherapy in our AML mouse model, as well as suppressed the migration of chemoresistant C1498 cells. These results provide novel insight into the role of cell migration arrest on the development of chemoresistance in AML, as well as provide a strong rationale for the modulation of cellular motility as a therapeutic target for refractory AML.

Project description:The paper describes a model of tumor invasion to bone marrow.
Created by COPASI 4.26 (Build 213)
This model is described in the article:
Modeling invasion of metastasizing cancer cells to bone marrow utilizing ecological principles
Kun-Wan Chen, Kenneth J Pienta
Theoretical Biology and Medical Modelling 2011, 8:36
Abstract:
Background: The invasion of a new species into an established ecosystem can be directly compared to the steps involved in cancer metastasis. Cancer must grow in a primary site, extravasate and survive in the circulation to then intravasate into target organ (invasive species survival in transport). Cancer cells often lay dormant at their metastatic site for a long period of time (lag period for invasive species) before proliferating (invasive spread). Proliferation in the new site has an impact on the target organ microenvironment (ecological impact) and eventually the human host (biosphere impact).
Results: Tilman has described mathematical equations for the competition between invasive species in a structured habitat. These equations were adapted to study the invasion of cancer cells into the bone marrow microenvironment as a structured habitat. A large proportion of solid tumor metastases are bone metastases, known to usurp hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) homing pathways to establish footholds in the bone marrow. This required accounting for the fact that this is the natural home of hematopoietic stem cells and that they already occupy this structured space. The adapted Tilman model of invasion dynamics is especially valuable for modeling the lag period or dormancy of cancer cells.
Conclusions: The Tilman equations for modeling the invasion of two species into a defined space have been modified to study the invasion of cancer cells into the bone marrow microenvironment. These modified equations allow a more flexible way to model the space competition between the two cell species. The ability to model initial density, metastatic seeding into the bone marrow and growth once the cells are present, and movement of cells out of the bone marrow niche and apoptosis of cells are all aspects of the adapted equations. These equations are currently being applied to clinical data sets for verification and further refinement of the models.

Project description:Myocardin-related transcription factor A (MRTF-A) in complex with the serum response factor (SRF) regulates the expression of cytoskeletal genes in response to cytoplasmic and nuclear actin dynamics. Different components of nucleoskeleton, besides nuclear actin, also regulate the activity of MRTF-A. Here we extend these studies by showing that lamina-associated polypeptide 2α (Lap2α), the nucleoplasmic isoform of Lap2, is a novel regulator, and a direct binding partner of MRTF-A. Lap2α is a nucleoplasmic protein that interacts with A-type lamins and the retinoblastoma protein (pRb) and contributes to chromatin organization. Unlike other known MRTF-A regulators, Lap2α is not required for MRTF-A nucleo-cytoplasmic shuttling; it functions within the nucleus where it binds MRTF-A directly via its unique C-terminal domain prior to MRTF-A forming the complex with chromatin and SRF. Such interaction affects MRTF-A transcriptional activity since genome-wide analysis revealed reduced binding of MRTF-A to SRF target genes in Lap2α knockout cells compared to control cells that consequently led to impaired expression of target genes. Our studies therefore add another regulatory layer to the control MRTF-A-SRF-mediated gene expression, and broaden the role of Lap2α in transcriptional regulation.
