  • Interplay Between Epigenetics and Metabolism in Oncogenesis: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Approaches
    OPEN Oncogene (2017) 36, 3359–3374 www.nature.com/onc REVIEW Interplay between epigenetics and metabolism in oncogenesis: mechanisms and therapeutic approaches CC Wong1, Y Qian2,3 and J Yu1 Epigenetic and metabolic alterations in cancer cells are highly intertwined. Oncogene-driven metabolic rewiring modifies the epigenetic landscape via modulating the activities of DNA and histone modification enzymes at the metabolite level. Conversely, epigenetic mechanisms regulate the expression of metabolic genes, thereby altering the metabolome. Epigenetic-metabolomic interplay has a critical role in tumourigenesis by coordinately sustaining cell proliferation, metastasis and pluripotency. Understanding the link between epigenetics and metabolism could unravel novel molecular targets, whose intervention may lead to improvements in cancer treatment. In this review, we summarized the recent discoveries linking epigenetics and metabolism and their underlying roles in tumorigenesis; and highlighted the promising molecular targets, with an update on the development of small molecule or biologic inhibitors against these abnormalities in cancer.

  • The Roles of Histone Deacetylase 5 and the Histone Methyltransferase Adaptor WDR5 in Myc Oncogenesis

Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) N-Myc Induces neuroblastoma by regulating the expression of target genes and proteins, and N-Myc protein is degraded by Fbxw7 and NEDD4 and stabilized by Aurora A. The class lla histone deacetylase HDAC5 suppresses gene transcription, and blocks myoblast and leukaemia cell differentiation. While histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) trimethylation at target gene promoters is a pre-requisite for Myc· induced transcriptional activation, WDRS, as a histone H3K4 methyltransferase presenter, is required for H3K4 methylation and transcriptional activation mediated by a histone H3K4 methyltransferase complex. Here, I investigated the roles of HDAC5 and WDR5 in N-Myc overexpressing neuroblastoma. I have found that N-Myc upregulates HDAC5 protein expression, and that HDAC5 represses NEDD4 gene expression, increases Aurora A gene expression and consequently upregulates N-Myc protein expression in neuroblastoma cells.

  • Distinct Contributions of DNA Methylation and Histone Acetylation to the Genomic Occupancy of Transcription Factors
    Downloaded from genome.cshlp.org on October 8, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Research Distinct contributions of DNA methylation and histone acetylation to the genomic occupancy of transcription factors Martin Cusack,1 Hamish W. King,2 Paolo Spingardi,1 Benedikt M. Kessler,3 Robert J. Klose,2 and Skirmantas Kriaucionis1 1Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research, University of Oxford, Oxford, OX3 7DQ, United Kingdom; 2Department of Biochemistry, University of Oxford, Oxford, OX1 3QU, United Kingdom; 3Target Discovery Institute, University of Oxford, Oxford, OX3 7FZ, United Kingdom Epigenetic modifications on chromatin play important roles in regulating gene expression. Although chromatin states are often governed by multilayered structure, how individual pathways contribute to gene expression remains poorly under- stood. For example, DNA methylation is known to regulate transcription factor binding but also to recruit methyl-CpG binding proteins that affect chromatin structure through the activity of histone deacetylase complexes (HDACs). Both of these mechanisms can potentially affect gene expression, but the importance of each, and whether these activities are inte- grated to achieve appropriate gene regulation, remains largely unknown. To address this important question, we measured gene expression, chromatin accessibility, and transcription factor occupancy in wild-type or DNA methylation-deficient mouse embryonic stem cells following HDAC inhibition. We observe widespread increases in chromatin accessibility at ret- rotransposons when HDACs are inhibited, and this is magnified when cells also lack DNA methylation. A subset of these elements has elevated binding of the YY1 and GABPA transcription factors and increased expression. The pronounced ad- ditive effect of HDAC inhibition in DNA methylation–deficient cells demonstrates that DNA methylation and histone deacetylation act largely independently to suppress transcription factor binding and gene expression.

  • Pan-Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors Regulate Signaling Pathways
    Majumdar et al. BMC Genomics 2012, 13:709 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/13/709 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Pan-histone deacetylase inhibitors regulate signaling pathways involved in proliferative and pro-inflammatory mechanisms in H9c2 cells Gipsy Majumdar1, Piyatilake Adris1, Neha Bhargava1, Hao Chen2 and Rajendra Raghow1,2* Abstract Background: We have shown previously that pan-HDAC inhibitors (HDACIs) m-carboxycinnamic acid bis-hydroxamide (CBHA) and trichostatin A (TSA) attenuated cardiac hypertrophy in BALB/c mice by inducing hyper-acetylation of cardiac chromatin that was accompanied by suppression of pro-inflammatory gene networks. However, it was not feasible to determine the precise contribution of the myocytes- and non-myocytes to HDACI-induced gene expression in the intact heart. Therefore, the current study was undertaken with a primary goal of elucidating temporal changes in the transcriptomes of cardiac myocytes exposed to CBHA and TSA. Results: We incubated H9c2 cardiac myocytes in growth medium containing either of the two HDACIs for 6h and 24h and analyzed changes in gene expression using Illumina microarrays. H9c2 cells exposed to TSA for 6h and 24h led to differential expression of 468 and 231 genes, respectively. In contrast, cardiac myocytes incubated with CBHA for 6h and 24h elicited differential expression of 768 and 999 genes, respectively. We analyzed CBHA- and TSA-induced differentially expressed genes by Ingenuity Pathway (IPA), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and Core_TF programs and discovered that CBHA and TSA impinged on several common gene networks. Thus, both HDACIs induced a repertoire of signaling kinases (PTEN-PI3K-AKT and MAPK) and transcription factors (Myc, p53, NFkB and HNF4A) representing canonical TGFβ, TNF-α, IFNγ and IL-6 specific networks.

He has been an excellent research mentor over the last two years and I am forever thankful that he welcomed me into his lab. His dedication to his work inspires me as an aspiring research scientist. His lessons will carry on with me as I pursue future research in graduate school and beyond. I would like to thank both current and former members of the Motor Neuron Disease Laboratory: Sambee Kanda, Kyle Hinkle, and Andrew Connell. Sambee and Andrew patiently taught me many of the techniques I utilized in my project, and without them it would not be what it is today.

  • Genome-Wide Investigation of Cellular Functions for Trna Nucleus
    Genome-wide Investigation of Cellular Functions for tRNA Nucleus- Cytoplasm Trafficking in the Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Hui-Yi Chu Graduate Program in Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Anita K. Hopper, Advisor Stephen Osmani Kurt Fredrick Jane Jackman Copyright by Hui-Yi Chu 2012 Abstract In eukaryotic cells tRNAs are transcribed in the nucleus and exported to the cytoplasm for their essential role in protein synthesis. This export event was thought to be unidirectional. Surprisingly, several lines of evidence showed that mature cytoplasmic tRNAs shuttle between nucleus and cytoplasm and their distribution is nutrient-dependent. This newly discovered tRNA retrograde process is conserved from yeast to vertebrates. Although how exactly the tRNA nuclear-cytoplasmic trafficking is regulated is still under investigation, previous studies identified several transporters involved in tRNA subcellular dynamics. At least three members of the β-importin family function in tRNA nuclear-cytoplasmic intracellular movement: (1) Los1 functions in both the tRNA primary export and re-export processes; (2) Mtr10, directly or indirectly, is responsible for the constitutive retrograde import of cytoplasmic tRNA to the nucleus; (3) Msn5 functions solely in the re-export process. In this thesis I focus on the physiological role(s) of the tRNA nuclear retrograde pathway. One possibility is that nuclear accumulation of cytoplasmic tRNA serves to modulate translation of particular transcripts. To test this hypothesis, I compared expression profiles from non-translating mRNAs and polyribosome-bound translating mRNAs collected from msn5Δ and mtr10Δ mutants and wild-type cells, in fed or acute amino acid starvation conditions.
