Project description:The Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway is crucial for the development of variety of organs including the mammary gland. However, the precise role of Wnt/β-catenin signaling during embryonic mammary gland morphogenesis is still poorly understood. Here, we used an epithelial gain-of-function β-catenin mouse model to study the role of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in embryonic mammary gland development and profiled the transcriptomes of E13.5 and E16.5 control and mutant mammary epithelia.

Project description:Millions of sweat glands required to maintain body temperature develop from embryonic ectoderm by a poorly defined mechanism. We present evidence for temporal cascade regulation of sweat gland development by Wnt, Eda and Shh pathways. The first stage, sweat gland induction, failed completely when Wnt/β-catenin signaling was blocked in skin epithelium, accompanied by sharp downregulation of Wnt, Eda and Shh pathway genes. In a meta-layer of regulation, Wnt antagonist Dkk4 appeared to operate on sweat gland induction in a negative feedback loop: Dkk4 was itself sharply downregulated in β-catenin-ablated mice, whereas its over-expression repressed Wnt target genes and significantly reduced gland numbers. Eda signaling succeeded Wnt, and activated downstream Shh pathway. Thus, in absence of Eda, Wnt pathway was still active and initial sweat gland pre-germs were seen but failed to develop germs, and dwonstream Shh pathway was repressed. When both Wnt and Eda were intact but Shh was ablated, early stage induction and subsequent duct formation occurred normally, but the final stage formation of secretory coil failed. Thus, sweat gland development shows a relay of regulatory steps, initiated by Wnt/β-catenin -- itself modulated by Dkk4 -- with subsequent tandem action of Eda and Shh pathways. Compared expression changes between wild type and skin specific beta-catenin knockout footpads at 3 developmental time points, E15.5, E16.5 and E17.5. Data were duplicated with 2 sets of samples.

Project description:Mammary gland development is fueled by stem cell self-renewal and differentiation. External cues from the microenvironment coupled with internal cues such as post-transcriptional regulation exerted by miRNAs regulate stem cell behavior and stem cell fate. We have identified a miR205 regulatory network required for mammary gland morphogenesis and stem cell maintenance. In the postnatal mammary gland, miR205 is predominantly expressed in the basal/stem cell enriched population. Conditional deletion of miR205 in mammary epithelial cells severely impaired stem cell self-renewal and mammary repopulating potential both in vitro and in vivo. miR205 null glands displayed significant changes in the basal population, basement membrane and stroma. NKD1 and PP2A-B56, which inhibit the Wnt signaling pathway, and AMOT, which causes YAP cytoplasmic retention and inactivation were identified as miR205 downstream effectors. Collectively these findings reveal an essential role of miR205 in mammary gland development.

Project description:Macrophages have important roles in mammary gland development and tissue homeostasis, but the specific mechanisms that regulate macrophage function need further elucidation. We have identified C/EBPβ as an important macrophage factor that is present in multiple populations of the normal mammary gland. Mammary glands from mice with C/EBPβ-deficient macrophages showed a significant decrease in alveolar budding during the estrus cycle. Deletion of C/EBPβ from macrophages resulted in changes in cytokine production, and an inability of both epithelial cells and macrophages to respond progesterone. RNA sequencing showed significant changes in PR-responsive genes and alterations in the Wnt landscape of epithelial cells in mammary glands that lacked C/EBPbeta in macrophages, which have been shown to mediate stem cell expansion during diestrus. These studies suggest that C/EBPbeta is a critical macrophage factor that facilitates macrophage-epithelial crosstalk during a key stage of mammary gland tissue homeostasis, and have critical implications for how disruption of tissue homeostasis can lead to tumorigenesis.

Project description:The Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway is a critical regulator of development and stem cell maintenance. Mounting evidence suggests that the context-specific outcome of Wnt signaling is determined by the collaborative action of multiple transcription factors, including members of the highly conserved forkhead box (FOX) protein family. The contribution of FOX transcription factors to Wnt signaling has not been investigated in a systemic manner. Here, by combining β-catenin reporter assays with Wnt pathway-focused qPCR arrays and proximity proteomics of selected FOX family members, we determine that most FOX proteins are involved in the regulation of Wnt pathway activity and the expression of Wnt ligands and target genes. We conclude that FOX proteins are common regulators of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway that may control the outcome of Wnt signaling in a tissue-specific manner.

Project description:The fibroblast growth factor pathway is known to cooperate with the highly oncogenic Wnt/ï¢-catenin pathway in mouse models of breast cancer. To investigate the mechanisms involved in this cooperativity, we utilized MMTV-driven transgenic mouse lines expressing a drug-inducible model for FGF Receptor signaling (iFGFR) crossed with the previously characterized MMTV-Wnt-1 mouse model. In these bigenic mice, both iFGFR1 and iFGFR2 activation resulted in a dramatic enhancement of mammary tumorigenesis. Tumor microarray analysis identified no transcriptional enhancement of Wnt/ï¢-catenin targets, however, identified a protein translational gene signature that also correlated with elevated FGFR1 and FGFR2 expression in several human breast cancer data sets. Additionally, iFGFR1 activation resulted in enhanced polysome recruitment and a marked increase in protein expression of several different Wnt/ï¢-catenin target oncogenes. Rapid FGFR-induced ERK activation and phosphorylation of key translation regulators was observed both in vivo in the transgenic mouse model, and in human breast cancer cell lines treated with exogenous FGF. These studies suggest that translational regulation is a key rate-limiting step required for oncogenic cooperativity between the Wnt and FGF pathways. reference X sample
