Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs), a subclass of noncoding RNAs characterized by covalently closed continuous loops, play emerging roles in tumorigenesis and aggressiveness. However, the functions and underlying mechanisms of circRNAs in regulating neuroblastoma progression still remain elusive. We identify one circRNA derived from CUX1 (circ-CUX1) as a novel driver of neuroblastoma progression. To investigate the mechanisms underlying the oncogenic functions of circ-CUX1, we employed the Illumina HiSeq X Ten as a discovery platform to analyze the transcriptome profiling changes of human neuroblastoma IMR32 cells in response to stable over-expression of circ-CUX1. The results showed that stable over-expression of circ-CUX1 led to altered expression of 1215 human mRNAs, including 781 up-regulated genes and 434 down-regulated genes. Furthermore, we validated the RNA-seq results by real-time RT-PCR with high identity. Overall, our results provided fundamental information about the transcriptomic changes in response to circ-CUX1 over-expression in human tumor cells, and these findings will help us understand the pathogenesis of tumor progression.

Project description:Neuroblastoma (NB), a malignant embryonic tumor arising from primitive neural crest cells, accounts for more than 7% of malignancies and around 15% of cancer-related mortality in childhood. Better elucidating the mechanisms of tumorigenesis and aggressiveness is important for improving the therapeutic efficiencies of NB. Through mining of public datasets, we identified circular RNA derived from CUX1 exons (ecircCUX1) as a novel driver of NB progression. To investigate the mechanisms underlying the oncogenic functions of ecircCUX1, we employed the BGIseq500 as a discovery platform to analyze the transcriptome profiling changes of human SH-SY5Y cells in response to stable over-expression of ecircCUX1. The results showed that stable over-expression of ecircCUX1 led to altered expression of 2155 human mRNAs, including 460 up-regulated and 1695 down-regulated genes. Then, we found the possible roles of these differentially regulated mRNAs in selected pathways including lipid metabolic reprogramming, mitochondrial complex I activity, invasion, and metastasis by Bioinformatic analysis. Furthermore, we validated the RNA-seq results by real-time RT-PCR with high identity. Overall, our results provided fundamental information about the transcriptomic changes in response to ecircCUX1 over-expression in human NB cells, and these findings will help us understand the pathogenesis of NB.

Project description:CUX1, a homeodomain-containing transcription factor, is recurrently deleted or mutated in multiple tumor types. In myeloid neoplasms, CUX1 deletion or mutation carries a poor prognosis. We have previously established that CUX1 functions as a tumor suppressor in hematopoietic cells across multiple organisms. Others, however, have described oncogenic functions of CUX1 in solid tumors, often attributed to truncated CUX1 isoforms, p75 and p110. Given the clinical relevance, it is imperative to clarify these discrepant activities. Herein, we sought to determine the CUX1 isoforms expressed in hematopoietic cells, and find that they express the full-length p200 isoform. Through the course of this analysis, we found no evidence of the p75 alternative transcript in any cell type examined. Using an array of orthogonal approaches, including biochemistry, proteomics, CRISPR/Cas9 genomic editing, and analysis of functional genomics datasets across a spectrum of normal and malignant tissue types, we found no data to support the existence of the CUX1 p75 isoform generated by an alternative transcriptional start site. Based on these results, prior studies of p75 require reevaluation, including the interpretation of oncogenic roles attributed to CUX1.

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) possess properties of both self-renewal and multipotent differentiation; however, the regulation of these opposing properties remains elusive. Using a novel reporter mouse, we demonstrate the dose-dependent role of the transcription factor, CUX1, in HSC fate. As CUX1 levels naturally rise, HSCs gradually lose repopulating capacity. CUX1 knockdown reverses this process and reverts HSCs to an earlier cell state—restoring the transcriptome, chromatin accessibility, repopulating capacity, and self-renewal ability of HSCs with normally low CUX1 levels. In the absence of CUX1, endogenous retroelements (EREs) are aberrantly expressed, leading to a cell-intrinsic inflammatory response, which contributes to CUX1-dependent HSC activity. Likewise, loss of the transcription factor IRF1 attenuates CUX1-mediated HSC reprogramming. This mechanism could be relevant to leukemogenesis as acute myeloid leukemias with CUX1 deletions upregulate EREs and the interferon response. Our findings attribute CUX1 and innate immune activation to the complex molecular underpinnings of HSC fate decisions.

Project description:CUX1 is a homeodomain-containing transcription factor that is conserved, ubiquitous, and essential in vertebrates and invertebrates. CUX1 is mutated or deleted in high-risk myeloid neoplasms and solid tumors, resulting in haploinsufficiency and tumor growth. Here we provide the first analysis of endogenous, whole genome, CUX1 DNA binding. We demonstrate that CUX1 binds with transcriptional activators and cohesin at distal enhancers across three different human cell types. Haploinsufficiency of CUX1 altered the expression of a large number of genes, including cell cycle regulators, with concomitant increased cellular proliferation. Surprisingly, CUX1 occupancy decreased genome-wide in the haploinsufficient state, and binding site affinity did not correlate with differential gene expression. Instead, differentially expressed genes had multiple, low-affinity CUX1 binding sites, consistent with an analog model for CUX1 gene regulation. A machine-learning algorithm determined that chromatin accessibility, enhancer activity, and distance to the transcription start site are features of functional CUX1 DNA binding. Moreover, CUX1 is enriched at sites of DNA looping, and these loops connect CUX1 to the promoters of target genes. We propose that CUX1 is an analog transcription factor that regulates target genes through higher order genome architecture.

Project description:Anemia is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in myeloid malignances. Cytogenetic changes are recurrent within malignant hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells, yet their role in anemia pathogenesis remains unknown. One recurrent karyotypic abnormality in myeloid neoplasms is the deletion of part or all of chromosome 7 [-7/del(7q)], which harbors the transcription factor and tumor suppressor gene, CUX1. CUX1 knockdown mouse models develop myeloid disease similar to that seen in humans, including a spontaneous, cell intrinsic, and lethal anemia that develops with age. Here, we elucidate the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which CUX1 regulates erythropoiesis. We demonstrate CUX1 knockdown mice have an aberrant stress erythropoiesis response and decreased survival after acute anemia induction. CUX1 insufficient erythroblasts undergo accelerated cell cycling and increased apoptosis. In line with these phenotypes, transcriptome profiling indicates that CUX1-knockdown elicits increased proliferation and decreased erythroid differentiation gene signatures. ATAC-sequencing demonstrated dramatic, global chromatin opening in CUX1-knockdown erythroblasts. As measured by fluorescence lifetime imaging, this increased chromatin accessibility is concomitant with a disruption in nuclear condensation, which is normally requisite in mammalian erythroblasts for nuclear eviction and terminal differentiation. Finally, we show that CUX1 mediates chromatin compaction by promoting histone deacetylation. Thus, rather than a transcriptional role, our data implicate in an epigenetic regulatory role for CUX1 in erythropoiesis. Furthermore, these results suggest therapeutic targeting of epigenetic regulators, such as histone acetyl transferases, may have clinical benefit for the anemias associated with loss of CUX1.

Project description:The pervasive expression of circular RNA from protein coding loci is a recently discovered feature of many eukaryotic gene expression programs. Computational methods to discover and quantify circular RNA are essential to the study of the mechanisms of circular RNA biogenesis and potential functional roles they may play. In this paper, we present a new statistical algorithm that increases the sensitivity and specificity of circular RNA detection.by discovering and quantifying circular and linear RNA splicing events at both annotated exon boundaries and in un-annotated regions of the genome Unlike previous approaches which rely on heuristics like read count and homology between exons predicted to be circularized to determine confidence in prediction of circular RNA expression, our algorithm is a statistical approach. We have used this algorithm to discover general induction of circular RNAs in many tissues during human fetal development. We find that some regions of the brain show marked enrichment for genes where circular RNA is the dominant isoform. Beyond this global trend, specific circular RNAs are tissue specifically induced during fetal development, including a circular isoform of NCX1 in the developing fetal heart that, by 20 weeks, is more highly expressed than the linear isoform as well as beta-actin. In addition, while the vast majority of circular RNA production occurs at canonical U2 (major spliceosome) splice sites, we find the first examples of developmentally induced circular RNAs processed by the U12 (minor) spliceosome, and an enriched propensity of U12 donors to splice into circular RNA at un-annotated, rather than annotated, exons. Together, our algorithm and its results suggest a potentially significant role for circular RNA in human development. 35 human fetal samples from 6 tissues (3 - 7 replicates per tissue) collected between 10 and 20 weeks gestational time were sequenced using Illumina TruSeq Stranded Total RNA with Ribo-Zero Gold sample prep kit.
