Project description:Using an in vitro model for malignant transformation of human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs) we have found epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and expression of the EMT-transcription factor ZEB1 are early and critical events. Specifically, we found preexisting oncogenic mutations in TP53 and KRAS were required for HBECs to engage EMT machinery in response to microenvironmental (serum/TGFβ) or specific oncogenetic (MYC) EMT-inducing factors, which induce EMT through distinct TGFβ-dependent and vitamin D receptor (VDR)-dependent pathways, respectively, with both requiring ZEB1. Functional studies demonstrated ZEB1 causally promotes the malignant progression of HBECs and tumorigenicity of NSCLC and small cell lung cancer (SCLC) lines. Mechanistically ZEB1 directly represses ESRP1 leading to increased mesenchymal splicing of CD44, which drives a switch to CD44hi status and defines a highly transformed subpopulation. This was supported by finding ZEB1 is expressed in early-stage primary non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC), as early as stage IB tumors, and its expression correlates with TNM stage. We conclude that: ZEB1-induced EMT and associated ESRP1 and CD44 molecular changes are important biomarkers for lung cancer pathogenesis; TGFβ and VDR are EMT chemoprevention targets; and as such, ZEB1 represents an important therapeutic target in NSCLC and SCLC.

Project description:Cell plasticity is emerging as a key regulator of tumor progression and metastasis. During carcinoma dissemination epithelial cells undergo epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) processes characterized by the acquisition of migratory/invasive properties, while the reverse, mesenchymal to epithelial transition (MET) process, is also essential for metastasis outgrowth. Different transcription factors, called EMT-TFs, including Snail, bHLH and Zeb families are drivers of the EMT branch of epithelial plasticity, and can be post-transcriptionally downregulated by several miRNAs, as the miR-200 family. The specific or redundant role of different EMT-TFs and their functional interrelations are not fully understood. To study the interplay between different EMT-TFs, comprehensive gain and loss-of-function studies of Snail1, Snail2 and/or Zeb1 factors were performed in the prototypical MDCK cell model system. We here describe that Snail1 and Zeb1 are mutually required for EMT induction while continuous Snail1 and Snail2 expression, but not Zeb1, is needed for maintenance of the mesenchymal phenotype in MDCK cells. In this model system, EMT is coordinated by Snail1 and Zeb1 through transcriptional and epigenetic downregulation of the miR-200 family. Interestingly, Snail1 is involved in epigenetic CpG DNA methylation of the miR-200 loci, essential to maintain the mesenchymal phenotype. The present results thus define a novel functional interplay between Snail and Zeb EMT-TFs in miR200f regulation providing a molecular link to their previous involvement in the generation of EMT process in vivo.

Project description:Therapy resistance and metastasis, the most fatal steps in cancer, are often triggered by a (partial) activation of the epithelial-mesenchymal-transition (EMT)-program. A mesenchymal phenotype predisposes to ferroptosis, a cell death pathway exerted by an iron and oxygen-radical mediated peroxidation of phospholipids containing polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). We here describe that various forms of EMT-activation, including TGFB-stimulation, increase ferroptosis-susceptibility in cancer cells, which depends on the EMT-transcription factor Zeb1. Among other effects, we demonstrate that Zeb1 increases the ratio of phospholipids containing pro-ferroptotic PUFAs over cyto-protective monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) and modulates the expression of underlying crucial lipogenic enzymes (and ACSL4). Pharmacological inhibition of selected lipogenic enzymes (SCD and FADS2) allows the manipulation of ferroptosis-sensitivity in a Zeb1-dependent manner. Our data are of potential translational relevance and suggest a combination of ferroptosis-activators and SCD-inhibitors for the treatment of aggressive cancers expressing Zeb1, which might also be a useful predictive marker for such a combination therapy

Project description:Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is an aggressive primary intestinal malignancy with the third-highest incidence and second-highest mortality among all cancer types worldwide. Transcription factors (TFs) regulate cell development and differentiation owing to their ability to recognize specific DNA sequences upstream of genes. Numerous studies have demonstrated a strong correlation between TFs, the etiology of tumors, and therapeutic approaches. Here, we aimed to explore prognosis-related TFs and comprehend their carcinogenic mechanisms, thereby offering novel insights into the diagnosis and management of CRC. Materials and methods: Differentially expressed TFs between CRC and normal tissues were identified leveraging The Cancer Genome Atlas database, Weighted correlation network analysis and Cox regression analysis were performed to identify prognosis-related TFs. The cellular functions of hub TF zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 1 (ZEB1) were determined using by 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine and cell invasion assays in CRC cells. RNA-sequencing, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment, and gene set enrichment analyses were used to identify the cellular processes in which ZEB1 participates. Immunoaffinity purification, silver staining mass spectrometry, and a chromatin immunoprecipitation assay were conducted to search for proteins that might interact with ZEB1 and the target genes they jointly regulate. Results: Thirteen central TFs related to prognosis were identified through bioinformatics analysis techniques. Among these TFs, ZEB1 emerged as the TF most closely associated with CRC, as determined through a combination of regulatory network diagrams, survival curves, and phenotype analyses. ZEB1 promotes CRC cell growth by recruiting the NuRD(MTA1) complex, and the ZEB1/NuRD(MTA1) complex transcriptionally represses glycolysis-associated tumor suppressor genes. Conclusion: Our study not only identified a hub biomarker related to CRC prognosis but also revealed the specific molecular mechanisms through which ZEB1 affects cancer progression. These insights provide crucial evidence for the diagnosis of CRC and potential treatment opportunities.

Project description:Depletion of Zeb1 in a KPC-model for pancreatic cancer affected strongly the formation of precursor lesions, tumour grading, invasion and notably metastasis during PDAC progression. In this context, EMT is important for metastasis, but there is variability and specificity (and not redundancy) in the role and function of different EMT-inducing transcription factors.

Project description:As pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) poses a formidable clinical challenge, demanding further exploration of its pathogenesis and drugs targeted for metastasis-the main cause of mortality. Here, we identified STN1, a CST complex member crucial for maintaining telomere lengths and genome stability, as a key factor in promoting PDAC metastasis. Elevated STN1 levels correlate with poor patient survival, with oncogenic protein HOXB7 as an upstream transcription factor regulating STN1. Utilizing multiple PDAC experimental models, we discovered STN1’s role in promoting metastasis by acting as a novel upstream factor in epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Mechanistically, our proposed model suggests that during transcription, STN1 binds to displaced single-stranded DNA adjacent to the R-loop, recruiting STAT3 to activate ZEB1 transcription independent of its known telomere maintenance function. Notably, STAT3 inhibitors show enhanced efficiency in restraining metastatic potential in STN1-overexpressed PDAC cells, offering promise as a therapeutic avenue for targeting metastasis in STN1-overexpressed PDAC patients facing an unfavorable prognosis.

Project description:Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) involves profound changes in cell morphology, driven by transcriptional and epigenetic reprogramming. However, it emerges that translation and the ribosome composition play also key role in establishing physio-pathological phenotypes. Using genome-wide analyses, we report significant rearrangement of the translational landscape and machinery during EMT. Specifically, a mesenchymal cell line overexpressing the EMT transcription factor ZEB1 shows alterations in translational reprogramming and fidelity. Considering the change in translational activity of ZEB1-overexpressing mesenchymal cells, including in fidelity activity, we sought for changes in ribosome composition. We thus performed a riboproteome approach, i.e., mass spectrometry (MS)-based quantitative proteomic analysis of purified cytoplasmic ribosomes to highlight any change in relative amount of individual ribosomal proteins between wild-type and ZEB1-overexpressing human mammary epithelial cells.
