Project description:DKK1 inhibits the canonical Wnt signaling pathway that is known to be involved in various cancers. However, whether DKK1 acts as an oncogene or tumor suppressor gene remains controversial. Furthermore, the DKK1-regulating mechanism in gastric cancer has not yet been defined. The aim of this study was to explore whether the ultraconserved region UC.145 regulates epigenetic changes in DKK1 expression in gastric cancer. Microarray analysis revealed that UC.145 exhibited the highest binding affinity to EZH2, a histone methyltransferase. The effects of UC.145 inactivation were assessed in gastric cancer cell lines using siRNA. The results indicated that UC.145 triggers DKK1 methylation via interaction with EZH2 and is involved in the canonical Wnt signaling pathway. Additionally, interaction between UC.145 and another long non-coding RNA adjacent to DKK1, PRKG1-AS1, induced a synergistic effect on Wnt signaling. The regulation of these three genes was closely associated with patient overall survival. Inactivation of UC.145 induced apoptosis and inhibited the growth and migratory, invasive, and colony-forming abilities of gastric cancer cells. The study findings provide insights into Wnt signaling in gastric cancer and support UC.145 as a potential novel predictive biomarker for the disease.

Project description:Super Enhancers are a class of DNA Cis-regulatory elements that can regulate cell identity, cell fate, stem cell pluripotency, and even tumorigenesis.Increasing evidence shows that epigenetic modifications play an important role in the pathogenesis of various types of cancer. However, current research is far from sufficient to reveal the complex mechanisms behind epigenetic modifications.The aim of this study is to explore the function and mechanism of a new Super Enhancer in Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) tumors. By using epigenetic modification and chromatin interaction information, we found a new Super Enhancer enriched with abnormal active histone modifications in PDAC tumors and cells, called DKK1-super-enhancer (DKK1-SE).DKK1-SE was grouped according to the activity modification information, and the e1 component was identified as the main active unit by dual luciferase reporter gene system and dCas9-KRAB system.DNA motif analysis and core site deletion assay revealed that the e1 component possessed AP1 transcription factor family binding sites.Mechanically, AP1 activates DKK1 transcriptional activity by recruiting JUND and FOSL2 to induce enhancer chromatin remodeling.CRISPR/ Cas9-mediated deletion of DKK1-SE resulted in significant downregulation of its target gene DKK1.Analysis of TCGA data of PDAC tumors combined with immunohistochemical results of PDAC patients demonstrated that DKK1 was closely related to malignant clinical features of PDAC.Bioinformatics analysis of RNA-seq data showed that DKK1 was mainly related to tumor-related biological functions such as extracellular matrix, cell adhesion, angiogenesis, and cell proliferation.Cell malignant phenotype assay showed that deletion or interference of DKK1-SE significantly inhibited the proliferation, colony formation, migration and invasion of PANC-1, and these phenomena were partially alleviated after restoring DKK1 expression in DKK1-SE deficient cells.Experiments of Subcutaneous transplantation tumor in nude mice and Orthotopic transplantation tumor model showed that DKK1-SE deletion not only inhibited tumor proliferation, but also reduced the complexity of tumor microenvironment, resulting in less angiogenesis of tumor tissues and reduced fibrosis degree.In conclusion, DKK1-SE drives the expression of DKK1 by recruiting AP1 family transcription factors, which plays a carcinogenic role in PDAC tumors and enhances the complexity of the tumor microenvironment.

Project description:Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men and AR downstream signalings promote prostate cancer cell proliferation. We identified a novel androgen-regulated long non-coding (lnc) RNA, SOCS2-AS1. In order to investigate the SOCS2-AS1 function in prostate cancer cells, we performed gene expression in AR-positive prostate cancer cell lines (LNCaP and LTAD) after siSOCS2-AS1 or siSOCS2 treatment. We also treated cells with vehicle or androgen to analyzed the effects of siSOCS2-AS1 on AR function. Observation of androgen dependent gene expression changes after treatmet with siSOCS2-AS1 with microarray.

Project description:miR-145 is downregulated in multiple cancers. The introduction of miR-145 could alleviate the tumor burden in the pancreatic cancer mouse model. However, how miR-145 mediates the tumor suppression is still an open question. In this study, we aimed to identify the targets of miR-145 using a SILAC approach.

These genes are involved in the determination of axes of leaves of Arabidopsis thaliana. To know the gene regulation in the leaf development, expression profile among wild-type, as1 and as2 mutants and AS2 overexpression plants were compaired. shoot apices from as1-1, as2-1, AS2 overexpressing, and wild type embryos

Project description:Characterisation IER3-AS1 interacting proteins using chromatin oligo-affinity precipitation (ChOP) followed by mass spectrometry. The HeLa cell lysates was incubated with biotinylated antisense oligonucleotides (ASO), targeting an experimental target antisense long noncoding RNA IER3-AS1 or a control RNA LacZ. LacZ and IER3-AS1 interacting proteomes were pulldown using Streptavidin beads. The eluted protein samples from both LacZ control ASOs and IER3-AS1 ASOs subjected to mass-spectrometry analyses to identify IER3-AS1 interacting proteins.

Project description:Dickkopf 1 (DKK1), which is expressed at high mRNA levels by fibroblasts in the dermis of human skin on the palms and soles, inhibits the function and proliferation of melanocytes in the epidermis of those areas via the suppression of beta-catenin and microphthalmia-associated transcriptor factor (MITF). In this study, we report that treatment of keratinocytes with DKK1 increases their proliferation and decreases their uptake of melanin, and that treatment of reconstructed skin with DKK1 induces a thicker and less pigmented epidermis. We investigated the effects of DKK1 on keratinocytes using DNA microarray technology. Keywords: compound treatment design
