Project description:Grainyhead-like 2 (GRHL2) maintains the epithelial status of ovarian cancer through miR-200-ZEB1 regulatory networks (expression)
| PRJNA290108 | ENA
Project description:Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is clinically heterogeneous, comprising different histological and biological subtypes. Multiple studies have implicated epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a biological process by which polarized epithelial cells convert into a mesenchymal phenotype, to contribute significantly to this molecular heterogeneity of EOC. From gene expression analyses of a collection of EMT-characterized EOC cell lines, we found that the expression of the transcription factor Grainyhead-like 2 (GRHL2) correlates with E-cadherin expression and the epithelial phenotype. EOC tumors with lower levels of GRHL2 are associated with the Mes (mesenchymal) molecular subtype and show poorer overall survival in patients. Here, we demonstrate that shRNA-mediated knockdown of GRHL2 in EOC cells with an epithelial phenotype resulted in EMT changes, with increased cell migration, invasion and motility. By ChIP-sequencing and gene expression microarray, we identified a variety of target genes regulated by GRHL2, including protein-coding and non-coding genes. Our data suggest that GRHL2 maintains the epithelial phenotype of EOC cells through the regulatory networks of miR-200b/a, ZEB1 and E-cadherin. These findings support GRHL2 as a crucial player in the molecular heterogeneity of EOC. 7 samples were analyzed (shNon control in duplicates; shGRHL2 #10 in duplicates, shGRHL2 #12 in triplicates)

Project description:Grainyhead genes are involved in wound healing and developmental neural tube closure. In light of the high degree of similarity between the epithelial-mesenchymal transitions (EMTs) occurring in wound healing processes and the cancer stem cell-like compartment of tumors, including TGF-β-dependence, we investigated the role of a Grainyhead gene (GRHL2) in oncogenic EMT. Grainyhead was specifically down-regulated in the claudin-low subclass of mammary tumors and in the basal-B subclass of breast cancer cell lines. Functionally, GRHL2 suppressed TGF-β-induced, Twist-induced or spontaneous EMT, enhanced anoikis-sensitivity, and suppressed mammosphere generation in mammary epithelial cells. These effects were mediated, in part, by its suppression of ZEB1 expression, through direct repression of the ZEB1 promoter. GRHL2 also inhibited Smad-mediated transcription, and up-regulated mir200b/c as well as the TGF-β receptor antagonist, BMP2. The expression of GRHL2 in the breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 triggered a mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition and sensitized the cells to anoikis. These results indicate that GRHL2 is a suppressor of the oncogenic EMT. 3 biologic replicates for each cell line.

Project description:Using a retrovirus-mediated cDNA expression cloning approach we identified the grainyhead-like 2 (GRHL2) transcription factor as novel protooncogene. Overexpression of GRHL2 in NIH3T3 cells induced striking morphological changes, an increase in cell proliferation, anchorage-independent growth, and tumor growth in vivo. By combining a microarray analysis and a phylogenetic footprinting analysis with various biochemical assays we identified the epidermal growth factor receptor family member Erbb3 as a novel GRHL2 target gene. In breast cancer cell lines, shRNA-mediated knockdown of GRHL2 expression or functional inactivation of GRHL2 using dominant-negative GRHL2 proteins induce downregulation of ERBB3 gene expression, a striking reduction in cell proliferation and morphological and phenotypical alterations characteristic of an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), thus implying dual roles of GRHL2 in breast carcinogenesis. Interestingly, we could further demonstrate that expression of GRHL2 is directly suppressed by the transcription factor zinc-finger-enhancer binding protein 1 (ZEB1) which in turn is a direct target for repression by GRHL2, suggesting that the EMT transcription factors GRHL2 and ZEB1 form a double negative regulatory feedback loop in breast cancer cells. Finally, a comprehensive immunohistochemical analysis of GRHL2 expression in primary breast cancers showed loss of GRHL2 expression at the invasive front of primary tumors. A pathophysiological relevance of GRHL2 in breast cancer metastasis is further demonstrated by our finding of a statistically significant association between loss of GRHL2 expression in primary breast cancers and lymph-node metastasis. We thus demonstrate a crucial role of GRHL2 in breast carcinogenesis. To evaluate the role of the GRHL2 transcription factor in carcinogenessis we overexpressed the human GRHL2 protein in NIH3T3 cells. Parental NIH3T3 cells do not express the orthologic protein. Alterations in genome-wide transcriptional profiles were determined by microarray analysis.

Project description:Previously, we have identified cytosolic form of the grainyhead transcription factor 2 gene (GRHL2) as notably hypomethylated in low-malignant potential (LMP) and high-grade (HG) serous epithelial ovarian tumors, compared to normal ovarian tissues. Here we show that GRHL2 is strongly overexpressed in both LMP and HG serous EOC tumors, thus suggesting that epigenetic mechanisms might be implicated in GRHL2 overexpression in serous epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Knockdown of the GRHL2 expression in EOC cells led to sharp decrease of cell proliferation and induced G1-phase cell cycle arrest. Additionally, GRHL2 suppression significantly inhibited EOC cell migration and invasion. Gene expression profiling and consecutive network and pathway analyses confirmed these findings, as numerous genes and pathways known previously to be implicated in ovarian tumorigenesis, including EOC tumor invasion and metastasis, were found to be downregulated upon BCAT1 suppression, while some tumor suppressor genes were induced. Taken together, our data are indicative for a strong oncogenic potential of the GRHL2 gene in advanced EOC and identify this transaminase as a novel EOC biomarker and putative EOC therapeutic target.

Project description:The Grainyhead family of transcription factors controls morphogenesis and differentiation of epithelial cell layers in multicellular organisms by regulating cell junction- and proliferation-related genes. Grainyhead-like 2 (Grhl2) is expressed in developing mouse lung epithelium and is required for normal lung organogenesis. The specific epithelial cells expressing Grhl2 and the genes regulated by Grhl2 in normal lungs are mostly unknown. In these studies, we identified the NK2 homeobox 1 transcription factor (Nkx2-1) as a direct transcriptional target of Grhl2. By binding and transcriptional assays, and by confocal microscopy we showed that these two transcription factors form a positive feed-back loop in vivo and in cell lines, and are co-expressed in lung bronchiolar and alveolar type II cells. The morphological changes observed in flattening lung alveolar type II cells in culture are associated with down-regulation of Grhl2 and Nkx2-1. Reduction of Grhl2 in lung epithelial cell lines results in lower expression levels of Nkx2-1 and of known Grhl2 target genes. By microarray analysis we identified that in addition to Cadherin1 and Claudin4, Grhl2 regulates other cell interaction genes such as semaphorins and their receptors, which also play a functional role in developing lung epithelium. Impaired collective cell migration observed in Grhl2 knockdown cell monolayers is associated with reduced expression of these genes and may contribute to the altered epithelial phenotype reported in Grhl2 mutant mice. Thus, Grhl2 functions at the nexus of a novel regulatory network, connecting lung epithelial cell identity, migration and cell-cell interactions. To identify genes regulated by GRHL2 in lung epithelial cells, we performed cDNA microarray analyses in MLE15 cells transduced with Grhl2-shRNA and compared to a non-silencing control. Independent transductions of MLE15 cells using Grhl2-shRNA (n=3) and a non-silencing control (n=2) were analyzed.
