Project description:HOTAIR is a 2.2-kb long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) whose dysregulation has been linked to oncogenesis, defects in pattern formation during early development, and irregularities during the process of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). However, the oncogenic transformation determined by HOTAIR in vivo and its impact on chromatin dynamics are incompletely understood. Here, we generate a transgenic mouse model with doxycycline-inducible expression of human HOTAIR in the context of the MMTV-PyMT breast cancer-prone background to systematically interrogate the cellular mechanisms by which human HOTAIR lncRNA acts to promote breast cancer progression. We show that sustained high levels of HOTAIR over time increased breast metastatic capacity and invasiveness in breast cancer cells, promoting migration and subsequent metastasis to the lung. Subsequent withdrawal of HOTAIR overexpression reverted the metastatic phenotype, indicating oncogenic lncRNA addiction. Furthermore, HOTAIR overexpression altered both the cellular transcriptome and chromatin accessibility landscape of multiple metastasis-associated genes and promoted EMT. These alterations are abrogated within several cell cycles after HOTAIR expression is reverted to basal levels, indicating an erasable lncRNA-associated epigenetic memory. These results suggest that a continual role for HOTAIR in programming a metastatic gene regulatory program. Targeting HOTAIR lncRNA may potentially serve as a therapeutic strategy to ameliorate breast cancer progression.

Project description:Long noncoding RNA HOTAIR (HOX antisense intergenic RNA) is an important regulator of breast cancer metastasis. Studies showed that HOTAIR reprograms chromatin state through interacting with Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) to promote breast cancer metastasis. However, it is unclear if there exist other HOTAIR-binding factors which participate in promoting breast cancer metastasis. In the current study, we utilized mass spectrometry (ChIRP-MS) to comprehensively identify RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) associated with HOTAIR. We also performed a high-throughput CRISPR screen to investigate HOTAIR-interacting proteins involved in cell metastasis. We found that many m6A-reader proteins were involved in this progress, including YTHDF3, which is a newly identified HOTAIR partner. We further demonstrated that HOTAIR and YTHDF3 co-regulated the expression of several metastasis-associated genes by modifying their chromatin accessibility in breast cancer cells. Altogether, our work detailed the functional interactome of HOTAIR involved in promoting breast cancer cell metastasis, and suggested a mechanism whereby HOTAIR regulates chromatin state in cooperation with the m6A-reader YTHDF3.

Project description:Accumulating evidence highlights the role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) in cellular homeostasis, and their dysregulation in disease settings. Most lncRNAs function by interacting with proteins or protein complexes. While several orthogonal methods have been developed to identify these proteins, each method has its inherent strengths and limitations. Here, we combine two RNA-centric methods ChIRP-MS and RNA-BioID to obtain a comprehensive list of proteins that interact with the well-known lncRNA HOTAIR. Overexpression of HOTAIR has been associated with a metastasis-promoting phenotype in various cancers. Although HOTAIR is known to bind with PRC2 and LSD1 protein complexes, an unbiased and comprehensive method to map its interactome has not yet been performed. Both ChIRP-MS and RNA-BioID data sets show an association of HOTAIR with mitoribosomes, suggesting HOTAIR has functions independent of its (post-)transcriptional mode-of-action.

However, the oncogenic transformation determined by HOTAIR in vivo and its impact on chromatin dynamics are incompletely understood. Here we generate a transgenic mouse model with doxycycline-inducible expression of human HOTAIR in the context of the MMTV-PyMT breast cancer-prone background (iHOT-PyMT mice) to systematically interrogate the cellular mechanisms by which human HOTAIR lncRNA acts to promote breast cancer progression. We isolated breast cancer cells from the primary tumors of iHOT-PyMT mice (named iHOT+ cells) and performed RNA-seq and ATAC-seq of iHOT+ cells treated with 3 conditions: Dox+, Dox- and DoxWD. We showed that HOTAIR overexpression altered both the cellular transcriptome and chromatin accessibility landscape of multiple metastasis-associated genes and promoted epithelial to mesenchymal transition. These alterations are abrogated within several cell cycles after HOTAIR expression is reverted to basal levels, indicating an erasable lncRNA-associated epigenetic memory. These results suggest that a continual role for HOTAIR in programming a metastatic gene regulatory program.
