It is envisioned that unnatural peptidomi- metic inhibitors of β-catenin/BCL9 PPI would be appealing be- cause they can mimic peptide helices while being highly resistant to proteolytic degradation. However, to the best of our knowl- edge, to date there has been no report on the development of potent unnatural peptidomimetic inhibitors to disrupt β-catenin/ BCL9 PPI. This is possibly due to the fact that known peptidic foldamers do not efficiently mimic the long α-helix, as well as to the limited availability of scaffolds and molecular frameworks. With the availability of helical sulfono-γ-AApeptide scaffold, B we questioned whether sulfono-γ-AApeptides can be designed to effectively disrupt the β-catenin/BCL9 PPI. If so, this would offer a new template for generating potent helical peptidomimetics that inhibit a variety of medicinally relevant PPIs. In view of the folding pattern (Fig. 2 C–F), we believe that our sulfono-γ-AApeptides can effectively mimic BCL9, because the side chains of sulfono- γ-AApeptides could be designed to mimic the critical residues of 5.1 Å the α-helix of BCL9 HD2 domain.

  • Constitutive Scaffolding of Multiple Wnt Enhanceosome Components By
    RESEARCH ARTICLE Constitutive scaffolding of multiple Wnt enhanceosome components by Legless/ BCL9 Laurens M van Tienen, Juliusz Mieszczanek, Marc Fiedler, Trevor J Rutherford, Mariann Bienz* MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge, United Kingdom Abstract Wnt/b-catenin signaling elicits context-dependent transcription switches that determine normal development and oncogenesis. These are mediated by the Wnt enhanceosome, a multiprotein complex binding to the Pygo chromatin reader and acting through TCF/LEF- responsive enhancers. Pygo renders this complex Wnt-responsive, by capturing b-catenin via the Legless/BCL9 adaptor. We used CRISPR/Cas9 genome engineering of Drosophila legless (lgs) and human BCL9 and B9L to show that the C-terminus downstream of their adaptor elements is crucial for Wnt responses. BioID proximity labeling revealed that BCL9 and B9L, like PYGO2, are constitutive components of the Wnt enhanceosome. Wnt-dependent docking of b-catenin to the enhanceosome apparently causes a rearrangement that apposes the BCL9/B9L C-terminus to TCF. This C-terminus binds to the Groucho/TLE co-repressor, and also to the Chip/LDB1-SSDP enhanceosome core complex via an evolutionary conserved element. An unexpected link between BCL9/B9L, PYGO2 and nuclear co-receptor complexes suggests that these b-catenin co-factors may coordinate Wnt and nuclear hormone responses.

  • BCL9 Provides Multi-Cellular Communication Properties in Colorectal Cancer by Interacting with Paraspeckle Proteins
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-13842-7 OPEN BCL9 provides multi-cellular communication properties in colorectal cancer by interacting with paraspeckle proteins Meng Jiang 1,2,8, Yue Kang1,3,8, Tomasz Sewastianik1,4, Jiao Wang1,5, Helen Tanton1, Keith Alder1, Peter Dennis1, Yu Xin1, Zhongqiu Wang1,6, Ruiyang Liu1, Mengyun Zhang1, Ying Huang1, Massimo Loda1, Amitabh Srivastava7, Runsheng Chen3, Ming Liu2 & Ruben D. Carrasco1,7* 1234567890():,; Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer, which despite recent advances in treatment, remains incurable due to molecular heterogeneity of tumor cells. The B-cell lymphoma 9 (BCL9) oncogene functions as a transcriptional co-activator of the Wnt/ β-catenin pathway, which plays critical roles in CRC pathogenesis. Here we have identified a β-catenin-independent function of BCL9 in a poor-prognosis subtype of CRC tumors char- acterized by expression of stromal and neural associated genes. In response to spontaneous calcium transients or cellular stress, BCL9 is recruited adjacent to the interchromosomal regions, where it stabilizes the mRNA of calcium signaling and neural associated genes by interacting with paraspeckle proteins. BCL9 subsequently promotes tumor progression and remodeling of the tumor microenvironment (TME) by sustaining the calcium transients and neurotransmitter-dependent communication among CRC cells. These data provide additional insights into the role of BCL9 in tumor pathogenesis and point towards additional avenues for therapeutic intervention. 1 Department of Oncologic Pathology, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA. 2 Department of General Surgery, Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University, Harbin Medical University, Harbin 150001, China.

  • Low BCL9 Expression Inhibited Ovarian Epithelial Malignant Tumor
    Wang et al. Cancer Cell Int (2019) 19:330 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12935-019-1009-5 Cancer Cell International PRIMARY RESEARCH Open Access Low BCL9 expression inhibited ovarian epithelial malignant tumor progression by decreasing proliferation, migration, and increasing apoptosis to cancer cells Jing Wang1,2, Mingjun Zheng1,2, Liancheng Zhu1,2, Lu Deng1,2,3, Xiao Li1,2, Linging Gao1,2, Caixia Wang1,2, Huimin Wang1,2,4, Juanjuan Liu1,2 and Bei Lin1,2* Abstract Background: Abnormal activation of the classic Wnt signaling pathway is closely related to the occurrence of epithelial cancers. B-cell lymphoma 9 (BCL9), a transcription factor, is a novel oncogene discovered in the classic Wnt pathway and promotes the occurrence and development of various tumors. Ovarian cancer is the gynecological malignant tumor with the highest mortality because it is difcult to diagnose early, and easy to relapse and metas- tasis. The expression and role of BCL9 in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) have not been studied. Thus, in this research, we aimed to investigate the expression and clinical signifcance of BCL9 in EOC tissues and its efect on the malignant biological behavior of human ovarian cancer cells. Methods: We detect the expression of BCL9 in ovarian epithelial tumor tissues and normal ovarian tissues using immunohistochemistry and analyzed the relationship between it and clinicopathological parameters and patient prognosis. The expression of proteins was detected by Western blot. The MTT assay, fow cytometry, the scratch assay, and the transwell assay were used to detect cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion, respectively. A total of 374 ovarian cancer tissue samples were collected using TCGA database.

Abstract Background: Transcription factor 7-like 2 Protein (TCF7L2) has a strong role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes melli- tus (T2DM). Association between rs7903146 and T2D risk reported in some of populations. Also many loci such as UBE2Z rs46522 are affecting by TCF7L2 transcription factor have been found associated with T2D. The present study aimed to evaluate association of the SNPs with risk of T2D among our population.

Results: The frequency of genotypes showed no remarkable difference between T2DM patients and control group.

  • Proximal Microdeletions and Microduplications of 1Q21.1 Contribute to Variable Abnormal Phenotypes
    European Journal of Human Genetics (2012) 20, 754–761 & 2012 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 1018-4813/12 www.nature.com/ejhg ARTICLE Proximal microdeletions and microduplications of 1q21.1 contribute to variable abnormal phenotypes Jill A Rosenfeld1, Ryan N Traylor1, G Bradley Schaefer2, Elizabeth W McPherson3, Blake C Ballif1, Eva Klopocki4, Stefan Mundlos4, Lisa G Shaffer*,1 and Arthur S Aylsworth5, 1q21.1 Study Group6 Chromosomal band 1q21.1 can be divided into two distinct regions, proximal and distal, based on segmental duplications that mediate recurrent rearrangements. Microdeletions and microduplications of the distal region within 1q21.1, which are susceptibility factors for a variety of neurodevelopmental phenotypes, have been more extensively studied than proximal microdeletions and microduplications. Proximal microdeletions are known as a susceptibility factor for thrombocytopenia-absent radius (TAR) syndrome, but it is unclear if these proximal microdeletions have other phenotypic consequences. Therefore, to elucidate the clinical significance of rearrangements of the proximal 1q21.1 region, we evaluated the phenotypes in patients identified with 1q21.1 rearrangements after referral for clinical microarray testing. We report clinical information for 55 probands with copy number variations (CNVs) involving proximal 1q21.1: 22 microdeletions and 20 reciprocal microduplications limited to proximal 1q21.1 and 13 microdeletions that include both the proximal and distal regions. Six individuals with proximal microdeletions have TAR syndrome. Three individuals with proximal microdeletions and two individuals with larger microdeletions of proximal and distal 1q21.1 have a ‘partial’ TAR phenotype. Furthermore, one subject with TAR syndrome has a smaller, atypical deletion, narrowing the critical deletion region for the syndrome.
