Abstract Zinc finger protein 143 (ZNF143) belongs to the zinc finger protein family and possesses transcription factor activity by binding sequence-specific DNA. The exact biological role of ZNF143 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has not been investigated. Here we report that ZNF143 is overexpressed in HCC tissues and its overexpression correlates with poor prognosis. Gain- and loss-of-function experiments showed that ZNF143 promoted HCC cell proliferation, colony formation, and tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. ZNF143 accelerated HCC cell-cycle progression by activating cell division cycle 6 (CDC6). Mechanistically, ZNF143 promoted expression of CDC6 by directly activating transcription of histone demethylase mineral dust-induced gene (MDIG), which in turn reduced H3K9me3 enrichment in the CDC6 promoter region. Consistently, ZNF143 expression correlated significantly with MDIG and CDC6 expression in HCC. Collectively, we propose a model for a ZNF143-MDIG-CDC6 oncoprotein axis that provides novel insight into ZNF143 which may serve as a therapeutic target in HCC. 3 Downloaded from cancerres.aacrjournals.org on September 23, 2021. © 2020 American Association for Cancer Research.

Introduction Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common cause of death worldwide, and the molecular mechanism of uncontrolled HCC progression remains unclear (1). Accumulating evidence has suggested that dysregulation of the cell cycle is one of the most important hallmarks of HCC (2). A selective CDK4/6 inhibitor showed encouraging results in preclinical models of HCC and might represent a novel therapeutic strategy for HCC treatment (3). Elucidation of the mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis and molecular biology of dysregulated cell cycle in HCC is fundamental for the development of effective therapeutic treatments. Zinc finger protein 143 (ZNF143) can be activated by IGF1 and is a transcription factor of the C2H2 family. This protein contains a transcription activation domain, 7 Kruppel-like C2H2 zinc finger motif domain, and a C-terminal domain (4,5). Some studies have shown that ZNF143 possesses potent oncogenic properties and can promote growth (6,7). In prostate cancer, ZNF143 is involved in cisplatin resistance by regulating the transcription of DNA repair genes (8). Additionally, ZNF143 is closely related to tumor malignancy via regulating cell motility and exerting tumor suppressive effects in breast cancer (9). Intriguingly, Haibara et al. found that two small molecules inhibit ZNF143 activity, suggesting an opportunity for cancer therapeutics (10). To date, the exact biological role of ZNF143 in HCC has not been investigated. 4 Downloaded from cancerres.aacrjournals.org on September 23, 2021. © 2020 American Association for Cancer Research.

An increasing body of evidence suggests that epigenetic changes such as DNA methylation and other post-translational modifications of chromatin play critical roles in HCC tumorigenesis (11,12). Of these epigenetic alterations, dynamic histone modifications play a pivotal role in the regulation of gene transcription (13). Histone methylation can be regulated by histone methyltransferase and demethylases. Mineral dust-induced gene (MDIG), also known as myc-induced nuclear antigen with a molecular weight of 53 kDa (MINA53), was first identified in alveolar macrophages obtained from coal miners (14), contains one JmjC domain and can demethylate H3K9me3 (15,16). Numerous studies have demonstrated that MDIG is overexpressed in malignancies and can promote cell migration, cell cycle transition and proliferation (14,17). Various studies have shown that functionally related genes involved in epigenetic reprogramming can be controlled by specific transcription factors (18,19). Elucidation of the epigenetic alterations induced by transcription factors will provide more comprehensive and precise insight into the regulatory mechanisms of transcription factors. In the current study, we identified cell division cycle 6 (CDC6) as a downstream target gene of ZNF143 during the regulation of cell cycle in HCC. ZNF143 promoted CDC6 expression by attenuating the enrichment of H3K9me3 in CDC6 promoter region through activation of MDIG. Our findings reveal the fundamental roles of ZNF143 in cell cycle control and identify the ZNF143-MDIG-CDC6 axis as a potential target for anticancer therapy. 5 Downloaded from cancerres.aacrjournals.org on September 23, 2021. © 2020 American Association for Cancer Research.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

Many cases of high-risk B-cell ALL cases, including BCR-ABL1+ and BCR-ABL1-like ALL, share a common molecular mechanism of aberrant fusion transcripts involving tyrosine kinase genes combined with dysregulation of the transcription factor and lymphocyte differentiation factor IKZF1. Dysfunction of IKZF1 in ALL is caused by mutation and gene deletion but also alternative splicing resulting in exon skipping with production of aberrant IKZF1 proteins. We report here an assay to detect aberrantly spliced isoforms of IKZF1 in ALL to assist in diagnosis, outcome prediction, and therapy selection in ALL and the identification of a novel altered IKZF1 product in a model ALL cell line.

Abstract The high mortality rate of gastric cancer (GC) is in part due to the absence of initial disclosure of its biomarkers. The recognition of important genes associated in GC is therefore recommended to advance clinical prognosis, diagnosis and and treatment outcomes. The current investigation used the microarray dataset GSE113255 RNA seq data from the Gene Expression Omnibus database to diagnose differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Pathway and gene ontology enrichment analyses were performed, and a proteinprotein interaction network, modules, target genes - miRNA regulatory network and target genes - TF regulatory network were constructed and analyzed. Finally, validation of hub genes was performed. The 1008 DEGs identified consisted of 505 up regulated genes and 503 down regulated genes.

Bush2* 1Department of Nutrition, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH, USA. 2Department of Population and Quantitative Health Sciences, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH, USA.*-corresponding author(email:[email protected]) Abstract Background Transcription factor(TF) interactions are known to regulate target gene(TG) expression in eukaryotes via TF regulatory modules(TRMs). Such interactions can be formed due to co- localizing TFs binding proximally to each other in the DNA sequence or over long distances between distally binding TFs via chromatin looping. While the former type of interaction has been characterized extensively, long distance TF interactions are still largely understudied. Furthermore, most prior approaches have focused on characterizing physical TF interactions without accounting for their effects on TG expression regulation. Understanding TRM based TG expression regulation could aid in understanding diseases caused by disruptions to these mechanisms. In this paper, we present a novel neural network based TRM detection approach that consists of using multi-omics TF based regulatory mechanism information to generate features for building non-linear multilayer perceptron TG expression prediction models in the GM12878 immortalized lymphoblastoid cells.

  • Transcriptome Analysis of Complex I-Deficient Patients Reveals Distinct
    van der Lee et al. BMC Genomics (2015) 16:691 DOI 10.1186/s12864-015-1883-8 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Transcriptome analysis of complex I-deficient patients reveals distinct expression programs for subunits and assembly factors of the oxidative phosphorylation system Robin van der Lee1†, Radek Szklarczyk1,2†, Jan Smeitink3,HubertJMSmeets4, Martijn A. Huynen1 and Rutger Vogel3* Abstract Background: Transcriptional control of mitochondrial metabolism is essential for cellular function. A better understanding of this process will aid the elucidation of mitochondrial disorders, in particular of the many genetically unsolved cases of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) deficiency. Yet, to date only few studies have investigated nuclear gene regulation in the context of OXPHOS deficiency. In this study we performed RNA sequencing of two control and two complex I-deficient patient cell lines cultured in the presence of compounds that perturb mitochondrial metabolism: chloramphenicol, AICAR, or resveratrol. We combined this with a comprehensive analysis of mitochondrial and nuclear gene expression patterns, co-expression calculations and transcription factor binding sites. Results: Our analyses show that subsets of mitochondrial OXPHOS genes respond opposingly to chloramphenicol and AICAR, whereas the response of nuclear OXPHOS genes is less consistent between cell lines and treatments. Across all samples nuclear OXPHOS genes have a significantly higher co-expression with each other than with other genes, including those encoding mitochondrial proteins. We found no evidence for complex-specific mRNA expression regulation: subunits of different OXPHOS complexes are similarly (co-)expressed and regulated by a common set of transcription factors. However, we did observe significant differences between the expression of nuclear genes for OXPHOS subunits versus assembly factors, suggesting divergent transcription programs.

  • Novel Gene Targets Detected by Genomic Profiling in a Consecutive Series of 126 Adults with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
    Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia ARTICLES Novel gene targets detected by genomic profiling in a consecutive series of 126 adults with acute lymphoblastic leukemia Setareh Safavi,1 Markus Hansson,2 Karin Karlsson,2 Andrea Biloglav,1 Bertil Johansson,1,3 and Kajsa Paulsson1 1Division of Clinical Genetics, Department of Laboratory Medicine, Lund University; 2Division of Hematology, Skåne University Hospital, Lund University; and 3Department of Clinical Genetics, University and Regional Laboratories, Region Skåne, Lund, Sweden ABSTRACT In contrast to acute lymphoblastic leukemia in children, adult cases of this disease are associated with a very poor prognosis. In order to ascertain whether the frequencies and patterns of submicroscopic changes, identifiable with single nucleotide polymorphism array analysis, differ between childhood and adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia, we performed single nucleotide polymorphism array analyses of 126 adult cases, the largest series to date, includ- ing 18 paired diagnostic and relapse samples. Apart from identifying characteristic microdeletions of the CDKN2A, EBF1, ETV6, IKZF1, PAX5 and RB1 genes, the present study uncovered novel, focal deletions of the BCAT1, BTLA, NR3C1, PIK3AP1 and SERP2 genes in 2-6% of the adult cases. IKZF1 deletions were associated with B-cell pre- cursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (P=0.036), BCR-ABL1-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (P<0.001), and higher white blood cell counts (P=0.005). In addition, recurrent deletions of RASSF3 and TOX were seen in relapse samples. Comparing paired diagnostic/relapse samples revealed identical changes at diagnosis and relapse in 27%, clonal evolution in 22%, and relapses evolving from ancestral clones in 50%, akin to what has previously been reported in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia and indicating that the mechanisms of relapse may be similar in adult and childhood cases.
