The role of Ternary Complex factors in T-cell Positive Selection

ABSTRACT: Removal of the transcription factor SAP1a member of the Ternary Complex Factor (TCF) group of transcription factors which in conjunction with Serum Response Factor (SRF) has been shown to have a profound effect on positive selection in the thymus. When another TCF Elk1 is knocked out in mice there is no effect on positive selection unless it is on a Sap1a KO background where the phenotype is very severe. We have stimulated isolated double positive T cells (DPs) with anti-CD3 to mimic positive selection and compared basal and stimulated transcription across the four genotypes to discover the downstream targets of Sap1a involved in positive selection. The Affymetrix mouse Chip Mouse430_2 arrays were used to define gene expression profiles in purified DPs with and with out CD3 treatment from 3 mice for each genotype (Wt,SapKO, ElkKO and SAP/Elk double KO)

The ternary complex factors (TCFs; SAP-1, Elk-1, and Net) are serum response factor cofactors that share many functional properties and are coexpressed in many tissues. SAP-1, the predominant thymus TCF, is required for thymocyte positive selection. In this study, we assessed whether the different TCFs are functionally equivalent. Elk-1 deletion, but not the hypomorphic Net(delta) mutation, exacerbated the SAP-1 positive selection phenotype, but triply deficient thymocytes were no more defective ...[more]

Promotion of pancreatic cancer metastasis by mutant p53

Project description:The TP53 transcription factor is frequently mutated at later stages of epithelial cancers, indicating a possible role in their invasion and metastasis. Importantly, in most cases rather than a simple loss of function p53 mutation, point mutations of p53 accumulate at the protein level and may have dominant negative functions. This study analyses gene expression differences between mice harbouring p53 mutation who do and do not develop metastasis. Samples were collected from Genetically modified mice of the genotypes indicated in the characteristics. The presence or absence of metastasis was scored and gene expression differences between the two groups measured.

B-catenin deficiency, but not c-Myc deletion, suppresses the immediate phenotypes of Apc loss in the liver

Project description:Dysregulated Wnt signalling is seen in approximately 30% of hepatocellular cancers, thus finding pathways downstream of activation of Wnt signalling is key. Using cre lox technology we have deleted the the adenomatous polyposis coli tumour suppressor protein (Apc) within the adult mouse liver and observed a rapid increase in nuclear beta-catenin and C-Myc. This is associated with an induction of proliferation leading to hepatomegally within 4 days of gene deletion. To investigate the downstream pathways responsible for these phenotypes we analysed the impact of inactivating Apc in the context of deficiency of the potentially key effectors beta-catenin and c-Myc. beta-catenin loss rescues both the proliferation and hepatomegally phenotypes following Apc loss. However c-Myc deletion, which rescues the phenotypes of Apc loss in the intestine, had no effect on the phenotypes of Apc loss. The consequences of deregulation the Wnt pathway within the liver are therefore strikingly different to those observed within the intestine, with the vast majority of Wnt targets beta-catenin dependent but c-Myc independent in the liver. Samples were collected from Genetcially modified mice of the genotypes indicated in the characteristics field. Gene recombination was induced using IP administration of beta-napthoflavone. Cohorts of samples were used to compare the affects of APC loss, cMYC loss and combined APC and cMYC loss in the liver (and compared to matched control samples in which the genes were not recombined).

The impact of P53 loss on transcriptome changes following loss of Apc in the intestine

Project description:BACKGROUND: p53 is an important tumor suppressor with a known role in the later stages of colorectal cancer, but its relevance to the early stages of neoplastic initiation remains somewhat unclear. Although p53-dependent regulation of Wnt signalling activity is known to occur, the importance of these regulatory mechanisms during the early stages of intestinal neoplasia has not been demonstrated. METHODS: We have conditionally deleted the Adenomatous Polyposis coli gene (Apc) from the adult murine intestine in wild type and p53 deficient environments and subsequently compared the phenotype and transcriptome profiles in both genotypes. RESULTS: Expression of p53 was shown to be elevated following the conditional deletion of Apc in the adult small intestine. Furthermore, p53 status was shown to impact on the transcription profile observed following Apc loss. A number of key Wnt pathway components and targets were altered in the p53 deficient environment. However, the aberrant phenotype observed following loss of Apc (rapid nuclear localisation of beta-catenin, increased levels of DNA damage, nuclear atypia, perturbed cell death, proliferation, differentiation and migration) was not significantly altered by the absence of p53. CONCLUSION: p53 related feedback mechanisms regulating Wnt signalling activity are present in the intestine, and become activated following loss of Apc. However, the physiological Wnt pathway regulation by p53 appears to be overwhelmed by Apc loss and consequently the activity of these regulatory mechanisms is not sufficient to modulate the immediate phenotypes seen following Apc loss. Thus we are able to provide an explanation to the apparent contradiction that, despite having a Wnt regulatory capacity, p53 loss is not associated with early lesion development. Samples were collected from genetically modified mice. Gene recombination was induced using IP administration of beta-napthoflavone.

Transcriptome changes following loss of Apc in the intestine

Project description:Nearly all colorectal cancers have dysregulated Wnt signalling, predominantly through the mutation of the Apc (Adenomatous Polyposis Coli) gene. Therefore it is of vital importance to elucidate the key Wnt target genes in intestinal cells in vivo. We have used a novel inducible cre-lox based murine system (designated ApcFlox) to investigate the consequences of perturbation of Wnt signalling following inactivation of Apc in vivo within 100% of the intestinal epithelium. We have employed microarray analysis at 3 time points within our ApcFlox system (Day 3 prior to the onset of phenotype, day 4 the establishment of the phenotype and day 5 gross phenotype of altered proliferation, differentiation and migration) and from adenomas arising in the ApcMin/+ background allowing us characterise Wnt/beta-catenin target genes based on their expression profiles during different stages of intestinal tumourigenesis. Furthermore, we have employed microarray analysis using livers from our ApcFlox system and have demonstrated that there is very little overlap in the Wnt target genes induced by Apc loss in the liver and the intestine. More importantly, we have been able to determine a novel set of putative Wnt/beta-catenin target genes which are upregulated at both early and late stages of tumourigenesis in the intestine and may represent novel therapeutic targets in colon cancer. Samples were collected from Genetcially modified mice of the genotypes indicated on the sample records. Where appropriate, gene recombination was induced using IP administration of beta-napthoflavone. Cohorts of samples were used to compare the affects of APC loss in the small intestine at three time points (and compared to matched control samples in which the gene was not recombined). Furthermore, these samples were compared to colonic polyps (and normal colon) taken from the Apcmin Mouse.

RNA Sequencing of WT, RAG2-KO, and RAG2-KO TCRbeta-Transduced CD4+CD8+ T-Cells Derived From Human Embryonic Stem Cells

Project description:T-cell development is predicated on the successful rearrangement of the T-cell receptor (TCR) gene loci, which encode for antigen-specific receptors that enable an immune response. Recombination Activating Gene (RAG) 2 is required for TCR gene rearrangements, which occur during specific stages of T-cell development. Here, we differentiated human pluripotent stem cells with a CRISPR/Cas9-directed deletion of the RAG2 gene (RAG2-KO) to elucidate the requirement for the TCRb chain in mediating b-selection during human T-cell development in vitro. In stark contrast to what is seen in mice, human RAG2-KO T-lineage progenitors progressed to the CD4+CD8+ double-positive (DP) stage in the absence of TCRb rearrangements. Nevertheless, RAG2-KO DPs retrovirally-transduced to ectopically express a rearranged TCRb chain showed increased survival and proliferation as compared to control-transduced RAG2-KO DPs. Furthermore, transcriptomic analysis showed that TCRb-transduced and control-transduced RAG2-KO DPs differed in gene pathways related to survival and proliferation. Our results provide new insights as to the distinct requirement for the TCRb chain during human T-cell development.

Expression data from WT DN3, TCF-1-deficient DN3 thymocytes, and T cell lymphomas in TCF-1-deficient animals.

Project description:TCF-1 is an HMG family transcription factor which is known to be critical for T cell development. We discovered that it has a unique role in suppressing malignant transformation of developing thymocytes at early stages. We identified ID2 and LEF-1 as key TCF-1 target genens in tumor suppression. We used microarrays to detect gene expression changes in WT and TCF-1 deficient DN3 thymocytes as well as T cell lymphoma cells developed in TCF-1 KO mice. DN3 thymocytes were directly sorted from WT or TCF-1 KO mice. T cell lymphoma blast cells were also sorted from TCF-1 KO mice that developed the disease. RNA was extracted and hybridized to GeneChip Mouse GENE 1.0 ST arrays (Affymetrix).
