Project description:We perfomed RNA-seq and wound healing analysis to identify the mechanism how SOX2 promote wound healing. We showed that induction of SOX2 in skin keratinocytes accelerates cutaneous wound healing by promoting keratinocyte migration and proliferation, and enhancement of angiogenesis via the upregulation of EGFR ligands.

Project description:The clinical efficacy of EGFR kinase inhibitors is limited by the development of drug resistance. The irreversible EGFR kinase inhibitor WZ4002 is effective against the most common mechanism of drug resistance mediated by the EGFR T790M mutation. Here we show that in multiple complementary models harboring EGFR T790M, resistance to WZ4002 develops through aberrant activation of ERK signaling caused by either an amplification of MAPK1 or by downregulation of negative regulators of ERK signaling. Inhibition of MEK or ERK restores sensitivity to WZ4002, and the combination of WZ4002 and a MEK inhibitor prevents the emergence of drug resistance. The WZ4002 resistant MAPK1 amplified cells also demonstrate an increase both in EGFR internalization and a decrease in sensitivity to cytotoxic chemotherapy compared to the parental counterparts. Our findings provide insights into mechanisms of drug resistance to EGFR kinase inhibitors and highlight rational combination therapies that should be evaluated in clinical trials. Our study identifies ERK signaling as a mediator of resistance to irreversible pyrimidine EGFR inhibitors in EGFR T790M-bearing cancers. We further provide a therapeutic strategy to both treat and prevent the emergence of this resistance mechanism. To generate drug-resistant NCI-H1975 cell lines, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells were exposed to increasing concentrations of WZ4002 similar to previously described methods. Individual clones from WZ4002-resistant (WZR) cells were isolated and confirmed to be drug resistant. Clone #6, designated as WZR6, was used in this study. For expression analysis, samples were prepared in triplicate from parental NCI-H1975 and NCI-H1975 WZR6 cells.

Project description:Carcinogenesis is a multistep process in which cells accumulate multiple genetic alterations, as they progress to a more malignant phenotype. It has been proposed that sequential accumulation of gene abnormalities in specific genes drives the transition from non-tumorous epithelia through preneoplastic lesion/benign tumor to cancer. Histologically, progression to invasive oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) follows multistep ordered series beginning with mucosal epithelial cell hyperplasia, followed by dysplasia, carcinoma in situ and invasive carcinoma. It is therefore speculated that genetic alterations-mediated multistep carcinogenesis would be involved in OSCC development, but their detailed molecular mechanisms are unknown. Herein, we clarified the comprehensive gene expression patterns and carried out an enrichment analysis using DNA microarray data obtained from an OSCC pathological specimen, which consists of non-tumor region, carcinoma in situ lesion and invasive carcinoma lesion. Numerous numbers of gene expression and signal activation were altered in the OSCC development. Of them, the expression of p63 was increased and MEK/ERK-MAPK pathway was activated in carcinoma in situ lesion as well as in invasive carcinoma lesion. Immunohistochemical analyses revealed that p63 was initially upregulated in carcinoma in situ lesions and ERK was sequentially activated in invasive carcinoma lesions in OSCC specimens. ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF)-like 4c (ARL4C), the expression of which is reportedly induced by p63 and/or MEK/ERK-MAPK pathway in OSCC cells, has been shown to promote tumorigenesis. Immunohistochemically, in OSCC specimens, ARL4C was more frequently detected in tumor lesions, especially in invasive carcinoma lesions than in carcinoma in situ lesions. Additionally, ARL4C and phosphorylated ERK were merged at high frequency in invasive carcinoma lesions. Loss-of-function experiments using inhibitors and siRNAs revealed that p63 and EGFR-MEK/ERK-MAPK cooperatively induce ARL4C expression in OSCC cells. These results suggest that the stepwise activation of p63 and EGFR-MEK/ERK-MAPK contributes to OSCC tumor cell growth though regulation of ARL4C expression.

Project description:EGFR and MEK pathways were activated alone or in combination in human mammary epithelial cells. We profiled the pathway gene expression signatures using RNA-Seq. mRNA was extracted from human mammary epithelial cells overexpressing EGFR gene, MEK gene, or EGFR and MEK genes in combination (or GFP control) for RNA-Seq analysis. Experiment was performed in six replicates per condition.

Project description:Oral mucosa contains a unique transcriptional network that primes oral wounds for rapid resolution in humans. Our previous work identified genes that were consistently upregulated in the oral mucosa and demonstrated that induction of one of the identified genes, transcription factor SOX2, promoted cutaneous wound healing in mice. In this study, we investigated the molecular and cellular mechanisms by which SOX2 accelerates wound healing in skin. RNA-sequencing analysis showed that SOX2 induced a proliferative and wound-activated phenotype in skin keratinocytes prior to wounding. During wound healing, SOX2 induced proliferation of epithelial and connective tissue cells and promoted angiogenesis. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assay revealed that SOX2 directly regulates expression of EGFR ligands, resulting in activation of EGFR. In vitro, skin keratinocytes overexpressing SOX2 promoted cell migration via the EGFR/MEK/ERK pathway. We conclude that induction of SOX2 in skin keratinocytes accelerates cutaneous wound healing by promoting keratinocyte migration and proliferation, and enhancement of angiogenesis via upregulation of EGFR ligands and activation of EGFR/MEK/ERK pathway. Through the identification of putative cutaneous SOX2 targets, such as HBEGF, this study opens venues to determine clinical targets for treatment of skin wounds.

Project description:The behavior of cells is governed by signals originating from their local environment, including mechanical forces that cells experience. Forces are transduced by mechanosensitive proteins, which can impinge on signaling cascades that are also activated by growth factor receptors upon ligand binding. However, the interplay between these mechanical and biochemical signals in the regulation of intracellular signaling networks remains incompletely understood. To elucidate this mechanochemical crosstalk, we conducted phosphoproteomic and transcriptomic analyses on epithelial monolayers subjected to mechanical strain. This approach revealed ERK signaling as a predominant strain-activated hub, initiated at the level of the upstream EGF receptor. Strain-induced EGFR/ERK signaling relies on mechanosensitive E-cadherin adhesions, as this signaling is disrupted upon genetic modulation of force transduction by the E-cadherin complex. Proximity labeling identified a connection between E-cadherin and ADAM17, an enzyme that mediates the shedding of soluble EGFR ligands. We developed a novel ADAM activity probe to demonstrate that mechanical strain induces ADAM activation, which relays mechanosensitive signaling from E-cadherin adhesions towards EGFR/ERK. Collectively, our data demonstrate how mechanical strain transduced by E-cadherin adhesion modulates the presence of EGFR ligands to regulate downstream ERK activity. Our findings illustrate how mechanical signals and biochemical ligands can operate within a single, linear signaling cascade.
