  • Hypoxia and Hormone-Mediated Pathways Converge at the Histone Demethylase KDM4B in Cancer
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review Hypoxia and Hormone-Mediated Pathways Converge at the Histone Demethylase KDM4B in Cancer Jun Yang 1,* ID , Adrian L. Harris 2 and Andrew M. Davidoff 1 1 Department of Surgery, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, 262 Danny Thomas Place, Memphis, TN 38105, USA; [email protected] 2 Molecular Oncology Laboratories, Department of Oncology, Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine, University of Oxford, Oxford OX3 9DS, UK; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 19 December 2017; Accepted: 9 January 2018; Published: 13 January 2018 Abstract: Hormones play an important role in pathophysiology. The hormone receptors, such as estrogen receptor alpha and androgen receptor in breast cancer and prostate cancer, are critical to cancer cell proliferation and tumor growth. In this review we focused on the cross-talk between hormone and hypoxia pathways, particularly in breast cancer. We delineated a novel signaling pathway from estrogen receptor to hypoxia-inducible factor 1, and discussed the role of this pathway in endocrine therapy resistance. Further, we discussed the estrogen and hypoxia pathways converging at histone demethylase KDM4B, an important epigenetic modifier in cancer. Keywords: estrogen receptor alpha; hypoxia-inducible factor 1; KDM4B; endocrine therapy resistance 1. Introduction A solid tumor is a heterogeneous mass that is comprised of not only genetically and epigenetically distinct clones, but also of areas with varying degree of hypoxia that result from rapid cancer cell proliferation that outgrows its blood supply. To survive in hostile hypoxic environments, cancer cells decelerate their proliferation rate, alter metabolism and cellular pH, and induce angiogenesis [1].

Research Center, Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University, Shijiazhuang, China. Email: [email protected]. Background: In locally advanced triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), patients who did not achieve pathologic complete response (non-pCR) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy develop rapid tumor metastasis. Tumor mutation burden (TMB) is a potential biomarker of cancer therapy, though whether it is applicable to TNBC is still unclear. Methods: A total of 14 non-pCR TNBC patients were enrolled, and tissue samples from radical operation were collected. Of these, 7 cases developed disease progression within 12 months after operation [short disease-free survival (short DFS)], while others showed longer DFS over 1 year (long DFS). Next generation sequencing (NGS) analysis targeting 422 cancer-related genes and in vitro studies were performed.

One approach is searching for compounds that influence pluripotent stem cell reprogramming using functional screens of known drugs. Our high-throughput screening of drug-like hits showed that imidazopyridines—analogs of zolpidem, a sedative-hypnotic drug—are able to improve reprogramming efficiency and facilitate reprogramming of resistant human primary fibro- blasts.

How mammalian PRC2 accesses chromatin is unclear. We found that Jarid2 associates with PRC2 and stimulates its enzymatic activity in vitro. Jarid2 contains a Jumonji C domain, but is devoid of detectable histone demethylase activity. Instead, its artificial recruitment to a promoter in vivo resulted in corecruitment of PRC2 with resultant increased levels of di- and trimethylation of H3K27 (H3K27me2/3). Jarid2 colocalizes with Ezh2 and MTF2, a homolog of Drosophila Pcl, at endogenous genes in embryonic stem (ES) cells. Jarid2 can bind DNA and its recruitment in ES cells is interdependent with that of PRC2, as Jarid2 knockdown reduced PRC2 at its target promoters, and ES cells devoid of the PRC2 component EED are deficient in Jarid2 promoter access.

  • Interplay Between Cofactors and Transcription Factors in Hematopoiesis and Hematological Malignancies
    Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy www.nature.com/sigtrans REVIEW ARTICLE OPEN Interplay between cofactors and transcription factors in hematopoiesis and hematological malignancies Zi Wang 1,2, Pan Wang2, Yanan Li2, Hongling Peng1, Yu Zhu2, Narla Mohandas3 and Jing Liu2 Hematopoiesis requires finely tuned regulation of gene expression at each stage of development. The regulation of gene transcription involves not only individual transcription factors (TFs) but also transcription complexes (TCs) composed of transcription factor(s) and multisubunit cofactors. In their normal compositions, TCs orchestrate lineage-specific patterns of gene expression and ensure the production of the correct proportions of individual cell lineages during hematopoiesis. The integration of posttranslational and conformational modifications in the chromatin landscape, nucleosomes, histones and interacting components via the cofactor–TF interplay is critical to optimal TF activity. Mutations or translocations of cofactor genes are expected to alter cofactor–TF interactions, which may be causative for the pathogenesis of various hematologic disorders. Blocking TF oncogenic activity in hematologic disorders through targeting cofactors in aberrant complexes has been an exciting therapeutic strategy. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge regarding the models and functions of cofactor–TF interplay in physiological hematopoiesis and highlight their implications in the etiology of hematological malignancies. This review presents a deep insight into the physiological and pathological implications of transcription machinery in the blood system.

  • Factor Expression and Correlate with Specific Transcription in Early Human Precursor B Cell Subsets Ig Gene Rearrangement Steps
    The Journal of Immunology Ig Gene Rearrangement Steps Are Initiated in Early Human Precursor B Cell Subsets and Correlate with Specific Transcription Factor Expression1 Menno C. van Zelm,*† Mirjam van der Burg,* Dick de Ridder,*‡ Barbara H. Barendregt,*† Edwin F. E. de Haas,* Marcel J. T. Reinders,‡ Arjan C. Lankester,§ Tom Re´ve´sz,¶ Frank J. T. Staal,* and Jacques J. M. van Dongen2* The role of specific transcription factors in the initiation and regulation of Ig gene rearrangements has been studied extensively in mouse models, but data on normal human precursor B cell differentiation are limited. We purified five human precursor B cell subsets, and assessed and quantified their IGH, IGK, and IGL gene rearrangement patterns and gene expression profiles. Pro-B cells already massively initiate DH-JH rearrangements, which are completed with VH-DJH rearrangements in pre-B-I cells. Large cycling pre-B-II cells are selected for in-frame IGH gene rearrangements. The first IGK/IGL gene rearrangements were initiated in pre-B-I cells, but their frequency increased enormously in small pre-B-II cells, and in-frame selection was found in immature B cells. Transcripts of the RAG1 and RAG2 genes and earlier defined transcription factors, such as E2A, early B cell factor, E2-2, PAX5, and IRF4, were specifically up-regulated at stages undergoing Ig gene rearrangements. Based on the combined Ig gene rearrangement status and gene expression profiles of consecutive precursor B cell subsets, we identified 16 candidate genes involved in initiation and/or regulation of Ig gene rearrangements. These analyses provide new insights into early human pre- cursor B cell differentiation steps and represent an excellent template for studies on oncogenic transformation in precursor B acute lymphoblastic leukemia and B cell differentiation blocks in primary Ab deficiencies.
