Project description:Understanding prostate cancer onset and progression in order to rationally treat this disease has been critically limited by a dire lack of relevant pre-clinical animal models. We have generated a set of genetically engineered mice that mimic human prostate cancer, initiated from the gland epithelia. We chose driver gene mutations that are specifically relevant to cancers of young men, where aggressive disease poses accentuated survival risks. An outstanding advantage of our models are their intact repertoires of immune cells. These mice provide invaluable insight into the importance of immune responses in prostate cancer and offer scope for studying treatments, including immunotherapies. Our prostate cancer models strongly support the role of tumour suppressor p53 in functioning to critically restrain the emergence of cancer pathways that drive cell cycle progression; alter metabolism and vasculature to fuel tumour growth; and mediate epithelial to mesenchymal-transition, as vital to invasion. Importantly, we also discovered that the type of p53 alteration dictates the specific immune cell profiles most significantly disrupted, in a temporal manner, with ramifications for disease progression. These new orthotopic mouse models demonstrate that each of the isogenic hotspot p53 amino acid mutations studied (R172H and R245W, the mouse equivalents of human R175H and R248W respectively), drive unique cellular changes affecting pathways of proliferation and immunity. Our findings support the hypothesis that individual p53 mutations confer their own particular oncogenic gain of function in prostate cancer.

Project description:We analyzed miRNA-based shRNA off-target effects by transducing Trp53-/- MEFs at single- and high-copy with six well-characterized, potent and weak Trp53 shRNAs. To advance RNAi therapy for KRAS-mutant cancer, we developed a functionally validated library of siRNAs against RAS pathway genes that minimize off-target effects and enable combination gene silencing at low dose. We developed an in vivo model for real-time tracking of nanoparticle-based siRNA delivery and offer proof-of-principle that siRNA-mediated inhibition of a single gene (KRAS) or combinations of genes (A/B/C-RAF or KRAS+PIK3C-A/B) can impair the growth of KRAS-mutant colorectal cancer xenografts. Trp53-/- MEFs were transduced with LMP expressing Trp53 shRNAs at single copy (11-21% infection efficiency) and high copy (>98% infection efficiency), selected on puromycin and grown in absence of the selection agent before harvest. Uninfected Trp53-/- MEFs and Trp53-/- MEFs infected with an empty vector control served as M-bM-^@M-^\no shRNAM-bM-^@M-^] reference.

Project description:Trp53-null, Trp53-515C/515C (encoding p53R172P), or wild-type mouse embryo fibroblasts were treated with 6 Gy gamma-radiation and harvested 6 hours later to compare expression profiles of genes regulated by wild-type p53 and p53R172P. Trp53-null cells were included as a negative control.

Project description:Loss of Pten in the KrasG12D;Amhr2-Cre mutant mice leads to the transformation of ovarian surface epithelial (OSE) cells and rapid development of low-grade, invasive serous adenocarcinomas. Tumors occur with 100% penetrance and express elevated expression of wild type tumor repressor protein 53 (TRP53). To test the functions of TRP53 in the Pten;Kras (Trp53+) mice, we disrupted the Trp53 gene yielding Pten;Kras(Trp53-) mice. By comparing morphology and gene expression profiles in the Trp53+ and Trp53- OSE cells, we document that wild-type TRP53 acts as a major promoter of OSE cell survival and differentiation: cells lacking Trp53 are transformed yet are less adherent, migratory and invasive and exhibit a gene expression profile more like normal OSE cells. These results provide a new paradigm: wild type TRP53 does not preferentially induce apoptotic or senescent related genes in the Pten;Kras(Trp53+) cancer cells but rather increases genes regulating DNA repair, cell cycle progression and proliferation and decreases putative tumor suppressor genes. However, if TRP53 activity is forced higher by exposure to nutlin-3a (an MDM2 antagonist), TRP53 suppresses DNA repair genes and induces the expression of genes that control cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Thus, in the Pten;Kras(Trp53+) mutant mouse OSE cells and likely in human TP53+ low grade ovarian cancer cells, wild type TRP53 controls global molecular changes that are dependent on its activation status. These results suggest that activation of TP53 may provide a promising new therapy for managing type I ovarian cancer and other cancers in humans where wild-type TP53 is expressed.

Project description:To investigate Pten function in neonatal developing brain, we conditionally inactivated Pten in neural stem/progenitor cells at birth using a Nestin-CreER transgenic driver. Pten inactivation created a novel perivascular proliferative niche in the cerebellum that did not progress to malignancy during the lifespan of the mouse. Co-deletion of Pten and Trp53 synergized to cause fully penetrant medulloblastoma originating from a perivascular niche. The Pten and Trp53 double knock-out medulloblastomas showed an extensive and abnormal blood vessel network and advanced neuronal differentiation of tumor cells compared to medulloblastomas arising in Nestin-creER;Trp53fl/fl mice, suggesting that Pten loss promoted angiogenesis and neuronal differentiation in medulloblastoma. EdU pulse-chase experiments demonstrated a lineage hierarchy of the double knock-out medulloblastomas consistent with a perivascular cancer stem cell population. The Pten and Trp53 double knock-out medulloblastomas showed somatic loss of chromosomes 7, 13 and 16, and inactivating mutations in the tumor suppressor gene Ptch1. Gene expression profiles showed that this model recapitulated the subgroup of human medulloblastomas with de-regulated SHH signaling.

Project description:For decades, researchers have devoted great efforts to study the tumor suppressor gene Trp53, however, our understanding of Trp53 regulation has never reached either organism-scale or single-cell resolution. We constructed single-cell transcriptomic landscape covering 18 organs of Trp53-/- mice models to explore genetic network transformations in the absence of Trp53.
