Retinoic acid (RA) is the primary functional derivative of vitamin A (retinol) and its activity is implicated in many aspects of vertebrate development and homeostasis, while disruptions in this pathway cause developmental abnormalities and disrupt function in adipose, cardiac, nervous, reproductive, and integumentary tissues, among others. RA acts primarily by binding a family of nuclear receptors (the retinoic acid receptors alpha, beta, and gamma) that then heterodimerize with their partners (the retinoid X receptors alpha, beta, and gamma) and alter transcription.

Interplay Between P53 and Epigenetic Pathways in Cancer Abstract The human TP53 gene encodes the most potent tumor suppressor protein p53. More than half of all human cancers contain mutations in the TP53 gene, while the majority of the remaining cases involve other mechanisms to inactivate wild-type p53 function. In the first part of my dissertation research, I have explored the mechanism of suppressed wild-type p53 activity in teratocarcinoma. In the teratocarcinoma cell line NTera2, we show that wild-type p53 is mono-methylated at Lysine 370 and Lysine 382. These post-translational modifications contribute ot the compromised tumor suppressive activity of p53 despite a high level of wild-type protein in NTera2 cells. This study provides evidence for an epigenetic mechanism that cancer cells can exploit to inactivate p53 wild-type function. The paradigm provides insight into understanding the modes of p53 regulation, and can likely be applied to other cancer types with wild-type p53 proteins. On the other hand, cancers with TP53 mutations are mostly found to contain missense substitutions of the TP53 gene, resulting in expression of full length, but mutant forms of p53 that confer tumor-promoting “gain-of-function” (GOF) to cancer.

Epigenomic and Transcriptional Regulation of Hepatic Metabolism by REV-ERB and Hdac3 Abstract Metabolic activities are regulated by the circadian clock, and disruption of the clock exacerbates metabolic diseases including obesity and diabetes. Transcriptomic studies in metabolic organs suggested that the circadian clock drives the circadian expression of important metabolic genes. Here we show that histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) is recruited to the mouse liver genome in a circadian manner. Histone acetylation is inversely related to HDAC3 binding, and this rhythm is lost when HDAC3 is absent. Diurnal recruitment of HDAC3 corresponds to the expression pattern of REV-ERBα, an important component of the circadian clock. REV-ERBα colocalizes with HDAC3 near genes regulating lipid metabolism, and deletion of HDAC3 or Rev-erbα in mouse liver causes hepatic steatosis. Thus, genomic recruitment of HDAC3 by REV-ERBα directs a circadian rhythm of histone acetylation and gene expression required for normal hepatic lipid homeostasis. In addition, we reported that the REV-ERBα paralog, REV- ERBβ also displays circadian binding similar to that of REV-ERBα.

Piacentini reviews see Chambon 1996; Mangelsdorf et al, 1994)). Each of these receptor families includes at least three distinct genes, (RARa,b and g; RXRa,b and g) that through differential Abstract promoter usage and alternative splicing, give rise to a large number of distinct retinoid receptor proteins (for reviews see Vitamin A and its derivatives (collectively referred to as Chambon 1996; Mangelsdorf et al, 1994).
