Core Transcriptional Regulatory Circuitries in Cancer
Oncogene (2020) 39:6633–6646 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41388-020-01459-w REVIEW ARTICLE Core transcriptional regulatory circuitries in cancer 1 1,2,3 1 2 1,4,5 Ye Chen ● Liang Xu ● Ruby Yu-Tong Lin ● Markus Müschen ● H. Phillip Koeffler Received: 14 June 2020 / Revised: 30 August 2020 / Accepted: 4 September 2020 / Published online: 17 September 2020 © The Author(s) 2020. This article is published with open access Abstract Transcription factors (TFs) coordinate the on-and-off states of gene expression typically in a combinatorial fashion. Studies from embryonic stem cells and other cell types have revealed that a clique of self-regulated core TFs control cell identity and cell state. These core TFs form interconnected feed-forward transcriptional loops to establish and reinforce the cell-type- specific gene-expression program; the ensemble of core TFs and their regulatory loops constitutes core transcriptional regulatory circuitry (CRC). Here, we summarize recent progress in computational reconstitution and biologic exploration of CRCs across various human malignancies, and consolidate the strategy and methodology for CRC discovery. We also discuss the genetic basis and therapeutic vulnerability of CRC, and highlight new frontiers and future efforts for the study of CRC in cancer. Knowledge of CRC in cancer is fundamental to understanding cancer-specific transcriptional addiction, and should provide important insight to both pathobiology and therapeutics. 1234567890();,: 1234567890();,: Introduction genes.

Synergistic Genetic Interactions Between Pkhd1 and Pkd1 Result in an ARPKD-Like Phenotype in Murine Models
BASIC RESEARCH www.jasn.org Synergistic Genetic Interactions between Pkhd1 and Pkd1 Result in an ARPKD-Like Phenotype in Murine Models Rory J. Olson,1 Katharina Hopp ,2 Harrison Wells,3 Jessica M. Smith,3 Jessica Furtado,1,4 Megan M. Constans,3 Diana L. Escobar,3 Aron M. Geurts,5 Vicente E. Torres,3 and Peter C. Harris 1,3 Due to the number of contributing authors, the affiliations are listed at the end of this article. ABSTRACT Background Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) and autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) are genetically distinct, with ADPKD usually caused by the genes PKD1 or PKD2 (encoding polycystin-1 and polycystin-2, respectively) and ARPKD caused by PKHD1 (encoding fibrocys- tin/polyductin [FPC]). Primary cilia have been considered central to PKD pathogenesis due to protein localization and common cystic phenotypes in syndromic ciliopathies, but their relevance is questioned in the simple PKDs. ARPKD’s mild phenotype in murine models versus in humans has hampered investi- gating its pathogenesis. Methods To study the interaction between Pkhd1 and Pkd1, including dosage effects on the phenotype, we generated digenic mouse and rat models and characterized and compared digenic, monogenic, and wild-type phenotypes. Results The genetic interaction was synergistic in both species, with digenic animals exhibiting pheno- types of rapidly progressive PKD and early lethality resembling classic ARPKD. Genetic interaction be- tween Pkhd1 and Pkd1 depended on dosage in the digenic murine models, with no significant enhancement of the monogenic phenotype until a threshold of reduced expression at the second locus was breached. -

This is achieved by the recruitment of transcriptional co-factors. One of the consequences of co-factor recruitment is the control of specific properties of nucleosomes, the basic units of chromatin, and their protein components, the core histones. The main principles are to regulate the position and the characteristics of nucleosomes. The latter includes modulating the composition of core histones and their variants that are integrated into nucleosomes, and the post-translational modification of these histones referred to as histone marks. One of these marks is the methylation of lysine 4 of the core histone H3 (H3K4). While mono-methylation of H3K4 (H3K4me1) is located preferentially at active enhancers, tri-methylation (H3K4me3) is a mark found at open and potentially active promoters. Thus, H3K4 methylation is typically associated with gene transcription. The class 2 lysine methyltransferases (KMTs) are the main enzymes that methylate H3K4. KMT2 enzymes function in complexes that contain a necessary core complex composed of WDR5, RBBP5, ASH2L, and DPY30, the so-called WRAD complex. -

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. -

Dephosphorylation of HDAC4 by PP2A-Bδ Unravels a New Role For

To date, the role of phosphatases in the signaling cascades instructing muscle development remains poorly understood. Here, we show that a specific PP2A-B55δ holoenzyme is necessary for skeletal myogenesis. The primary role of PP2A-B55δ is to dephosphorylate histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) following myocyte differentiation and ensure repression of Myocyte enhancer factor 2D (MEF2D)-dependent gene expression programs during myogenic fusion. As a crucial HDAC4/MEF2D target gene that governs myocyte fusion, we identify ArgBP2, an upstream inhibitor of Abl, which itself is a repressor of CrkII signaling. Consequently, cells lacking PP2A-B55δ show upregulation of ArgBP2 and hyperactivation of CrkII downstream effectors, including Rac1 and FAK, precluding cytoskeletal and membrane rearrangements associated with myoblast fusion. Both in vitro and in zebrafish, loss-of-function of PP2A-B55δ severely impairs fusion of myocytes and formation of multinucleated muscle fibers, without affecting myoblast differentiation. Taken together, our results establish PP2A-B55δ as the first protein phosphatase to be involved in myoblast fusion and suggest that reversible phosphorylation of HDAC4 may coordinate differentiation and fusion events during myogenesis. -
Symplekin and Transforming Acidic Coiled-Coil Containing Protein 3 Support the Cancer Cell Mitotic Spindle
SYMPLEKIN AND TRANSFORMING ACIDIC COILED-COIL CONTAINING PROTEIN 3 SUPPORT THE CANCER CELL MITOTIC SPINDLE Kathryn M. Cappell A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctorate of Philosophy in the Department of Pharmacology, School of Medicine. Chapel Hill 2011 Approved by: Advisor: Dr. Angelique Whitehurst Reader: Dr. David Siderovski Reader: Dr. Channing Der Reader: Dr. Pilar Blancafort Reader: Dr. Mohanish Deshmukh ABSTRACT KATHRYN CAPPELL: Symplekin and Transforming Acidic Coiled-Coil Containing Protein 3 Support the Cancer Cell Mitotic Spindle (Under the direction of Dr. Angelique Whitehurst) An increased rate of proliferation in cancer cells, combined with abnormalities in spindle architecture, places tumors under increased mitotic stress. Previously, our laboratory performed a genome-wide paclitaxel chemosensitizer screen to identify genes whose depletion sensitizes non- small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells to mitotic stress induced by paclitaxel treatment. This screen uncovered a cohort of genes that are required for viability only in the presence of paclitaxel. Two genes uncovered in this screen were the polyadenylation scaffold symplekin and the gametogenic protein transforming acidic coiled-coil containing protein 3 (TACC3). Herein, we examine the impact of polyadenylation and gametogenesis on the tumor cell mitotic spindle. First, we demonstrate that depletion of SYMPK and other polyadenylation components sensitizes many NSCLC cells, but not normal immortalized lines, to paclitaxel by inducing mitotic errors and leading to abnormal mitotic progression. Second, we demonstrate that multiple gametogenic genes are required for normal microtubule dynamics and mitotic spindle formation in the presence of paclitaxel. -

Tissue-Specific Splicing of a Ubiquitously Expressed Transcription Factor Is Essential for Muscle Differentiation
Downloaded from genesdev.cshlp.org on September 25, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Tissue-specific splicing of a ubiquitously expressed transcription factor is essential for muscle differentiation Soji Sebastian,1 Herve´ Faralli,1,4 Zizhen Yao,2,4 Patricia Rakopoulos,1,3 Carmen Palii,1 Yi Cao,2 Kulwant Singh,1 Qi-Cai Liu,1 Alphonse Chu,1 Arif Aziz,1 Marjorie Brand,1,3 Stephen J. Tapscott,2 and F. Jeffrey Dilworth1,3,5 1Sprott Center for Stem Cell Research, Ottawa Hospital Research Institute, Ottawa, Ontario K1H 8L6, Canada,; 2Human Biology Division, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Seattle, Washington 98109, USA; 3Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, University of Ottawa, Ontario K1H 8L6, Canada Alternate splicing contributes extensively to cellular complexity by generating protein isoforms with divergent functions. However, the role of alternate isoforms in development remains poorly understood. Mef2 transcription factors are essential transducers of cell signaling that modulate differentiation of many cell types. Among Mef2 family members, Mef2D is unique, as it undergoes tissue-specific splicing to generate a muscle-specific isoform. Since the ubiquitously expressed (Mef2Da1) and muscle-specific (Mef2Da2) isoforms of Mef2D are both expressed in muscle, we examined the relative contribution of each Mef2D isoform to differentiation. Using both in vitro and in vivo models, we demonstrate that Mef2D isoforms act antagonistically to modulate differentiation. While chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) sequencing analysis shows that the Mef2D isoforms bind an overlapping set of genes, only Mef2Da2 activates late muscle transcription. Mechanistically, the differential ability of Mef2D isoforms to activate transcription depends on their susceptibility to phosphorylation by protein kinase A (PKA). -

Keratinocytes were grown on a feeder layer of irradiated human fibroblasts pre-seeded at 4000 cells /cm² in keratinocyte culture medium (KCM) containing a mix of 3:1 DMEM and HAM’s F12 (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, USA), supplemented with 10% FCS, 10ng/ml epidermal growth factor (EGF; R&D systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA), 0.12 IU/ml insulin (Lilly, Saint- Cloud, France), 0.4 mg/ml hydrocortisone (UpJohn, St Quentin en Yvelelines, France) , 5 mg/ml triiodo-L- thyronine (Sigma, St Quentin Fallavier, France), 24.3 mg/ml adenine (Sigma), isoproterenol (Isuprel, Hospira France, Meudon, France) and antibiotics (20 mg/ml gentamicin (Phanpharma, Fougères, France), 100 IU/ml penicillin (Phanpharma), and 1 mg/ml amphotericin B (Phanpharma)). The medium was changed every two days. NHEK were then cultured over a period of 13 days according to the protocol currently used at the Bank of Tissues and Cells for the generation of clinical grade epidermal sheets used for the treatment of severe extended burns (Ref). When needed, cells were harvested with trypsin-EDTA 0.05% (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) and collected for analysis. Clonogenic assay Keratinocytes were seeded on a feeder layer of irradiated fibroblasts, at a clonal density of 10-20 cells/cm² and cultivated for 10 to 14 days. Three flasks per tested condition were fixed and colored in a single 30 mns step using rhodamine B (Sigma) diluted at 0.01 g/ml in 4% paraformaldehyde. In each tested condition, cells from 3 other flasks were numerated after detachment by trypsin treatment.
