Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been implicated in normal cellular homeostasis as well as pathophysiological conditions, including cancer. Here we performed global gene expression profiling of mammary epithelial cells transformed by oncogenic v-Src, and identified a large subset of uncharacterized lncRNAs potentially involved in breast cancer development. Specifically, our analysis revealed a novel lncRNA, LINC00520 that is upregulated upon ectopic expression of oncogenic v-Src, in a manner that is dependent on the transcription factor STAT3. Similarly, LINC00520 is also increased in mammary epithelial cells transformed by oncogenic PI3K and its expression is decreased upon knockdown of mutant PIK3CA. Additional expression profiling highlight that LINC00520 is elevated in a subset of human breast carcinomas, with preferential enrichment in the basal-like molecular subtype. ShRNA-mediated depletion of LINC00520 results in decreased cell migration and loss of invasive structures in 3D. RNA sequencing analysis uncovers several genes that are differentially expressed upon ectopic expression of LINC00520, a significant subset of which are also induced in v-Src-transformed MCF10A cells. Together, these findings characterize LINC00520 as a lncRNA that is regulated by oncogenic Src, PIK3CA and STAT3, and which may contribute to the molecular etiology of breast cancer.

Project description:Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is a critical transcription factor in cancer. However, while the protein-coding target genes of STAT3 have been extensively studied, the microRNA target genes of STAT3 are less understood. MicroRNAs are short, non-coding RNAs that regulate messenger RNAs through translational inhibition and transcript degradation. They have been found to be involved in all aspects of cancer biology. Given the roles of both STAT3 and miRNAs in cancer, the function of STAT3 as a transcription factor, and the dearth of known STAT3 miRNA targets, our goal was to identify novel STAT3 miRNA targets relevant to cancer. To do so, we engineered MCF-10A cells with doxycycline-inducible expression of STAT3C. STAT3C is a constitutively-active mutant version of STAT3. Although STAT3 can be activated by various growth factors and kinases, other pathways can be activated as well, which would confound analysis of the results. Thus, the advantage of STAT3C is that it allowed specific and focused activation of STAT3 alone, and this screen represents the first genome-wide survey of miRNA expression changes associated specifically with STAT3 activity. MCF-10A, a non-transformed breast epithelial cell line, was chosen because STAT3C has been reported to be sufficient to cause their neoplastic transformation. Therefore, we reasoned that analysis of STAT3C’s effects in MCF-10A cells would be especially informative for STAT3-regulated miRNAs relevant to cancer. As a result of our study, we identified previously-known as well as novel miRNA targets of STAT3. Doxycycline-inducible MCF-10A cells were seeded, and then untreated (grown in standard growth media alone) or treated with 2?g/ml doxycycline for 48hr. Each condition was performed in biological triplicate (labeled A, B, and C), for a total of 6 samples. Total RNA was harvested and submitted to the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute Molecular Diagnostics Laboratory. MicroRNA expression profiling was performed using TaqMan Low-Density Arrays (TLDA), human miRNA version 2.0A and version 3.0B cards (Applied Biosystems).

Project description:Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is altered in several epithelial cancers and represents a potential therapeutic target. Here, STAT3 expression, activity and cellular functions were examined in two main histotypes of esophageal carcinomas. In situ, immunohistochemistry for STAT3 and STAT3-Tyr705 phosphorylation (P-STAT3) in esophageal squamous cell carcinomas (ESCC) and BarrettM-bM-^@M-^Ys adenocarcinomas (BAC) revealed similar STAT3 expression in ESCCs and BACs, but preferentially activated P-STAT3 in ESCCs. In vitro, strong STAT3 activation was seen by EGF-stimulation in OE21 (ESCC) cells, whilst OE33 (BAC) cells showed constitutive weak STAT3 activation. STAT3 knockdown significantly reduced cell proliferation of OE21 and OE33 cells and reduced cell migration in OE33, but not in OE21 cells. Transcriptome analysis identified STAT3-knockdown associated down-regulation of cell cycle processes and the selective down-regulation of cyclins and cyclin dependent kinaes associated genes in both OE21 and OE33 cells. Moreover, the transcriptome response showed changes in cell migration/invasion related genes that correlated with the associated phenotype measurements. This study demonstrates the importance of STAT3 expression and activation in esophageal carcinomas, whereby the extent differs between ESCCs and BACs. STAT3 knockdown significantly reduces cell proliferation in both types of esophageal cancer cells and inhibits migration in BAC cells. Thus, STAT3 may be further exploited as potential novel therapeutic target for esophageal cancers. The effect of STAT3 knock-down in OE33 and OE21 cells was calculated from three biologically independent experiments. 3x10e4 cells were seeded in triplicate in 24 well-plates and were transfected with twice 100nM STAT3 siRNA (pool of 4 STAT3 sequences, siGENOMEM-BM-.SMARTpoolM-BM-., Dharmacon RNAi Technologies, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Lafayette, USA) or SilencerM-BM-. negative siRNA control (Invitrogen/Life Technologies GmbH, Darmstadt, Germany) using 1M-BM-5l DharmaFECT (Dharmacon RNAi Technologies, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Lafayette, USA) transfection reagent for OE33 cells or siPORTTM NeoFXTM (Invitrogen/Life Technologies GmbH, Darmstadt, Germany) transfection reagent for OE21 cells. Differential gene regulation was quantified 72 hours after the first transfection by comparing separately for the OE21 and OE33 cells the STAT3 siRNA replicates and the respective cell lines containing the scrambled siRNA vector.

Project description:Lung cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death worldwide and is strongly associated with cisplatin resistance. The transcription factor STAT3 is constitutively activated in cancer cells and coordinates critical cellular processes as survival, self-renewal, and inflammation. In several types of cancer, STAT3 controls the development, immunogenicity, and malignant behavior of tumor cells while dictates the responsiveness to radio- and chemotherapy. It is known that STAT3 phosphorylation on Ser727 by mTOR is necessary for its maximal activation, but the crosstalk between STAT3 and mTOR signaling in cisplatin resistance remains elusive. In this study, using a proteomic label-based approach, we reveal important targets and signaling pathways increased and decreased in cisplatin-resistant A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells.

Project description:We treated 8 human ovarian cancer cell lines with cisplatin in treatment/recovery cycles to induce in-vitro resistance to the drug. Microarrays measured gene expression at baseline and after each dose schedule (after recovery). OVCA cells lines (T8, OVCAR5, OV2008, IGROV1, C13, A2780S, A2780CP, and A2008) were used in the study. Cells were subject to sequential treatment with increasing doses of cis-diammine-dichloroplatinum (cisplatin, CIS), using three dosing schedules resulting in a total of 144 treatment/expansion cycles. Treatment schedules A, B and C included three treatments with 1, 2 and 3μg/ml CIS respectively, followed by three treatments with 3, 4 and 5μg/ml, respectively. Each CIS-treatment was followed by a cell recovery/expansion phase. Both CIS-resistance and genome-wide expression changes were measured serially in each cell line at baseline and after 3 and 6 CIS-treatment/expansion cycles. CIS-resistance was quantified using CellTiter-96, MTS proliferation assays (Fisher Scientific) and genome-wide expression was performed using Affymetrix Human U133 Plus 2.0 GeneChips as previously described.

Project description:STAT3 encodes an oncogenic transcription factor which is activated via various signalling pathways or Epstein Barr virus (EBV)-infection. The tumor cells of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) are derived from germinal center B-cells and transformed by chromosomal rearrangements, aberrant signal transduction, downregulation of transcription factors mediating B-cell differentiation, and EBV-infection. HL cell lines represent useful models to investigate the molecular pathology and deduced treatment options in this malignancy. Using cell line L-540, we have recently shown that constitutively activated STAT3 drives aberrant expression of hematopoietic NKL homeobox gene HLX. Here, we analyzed HL cell line AM-HLH which is EBV-positive but nevertheless HLX negative. Consistently, AM-HLH expressed decreased levels of STAT3 proteins which were additionally inactivated and located in the cytoplasm. Combined genomic and gene expression profiling data revealed amplified and overexpressed candidates involved in opposed regulation of STAT3 and EBV. Subsequent analyses demonstrated that IRF4 and NFATC inhibited STAT3 expression. However, treatment with IL6 or IL27 activated STAT3, elevated expression of HLX and MIR155, and inhibited IRF4. MIR155 (STAT3 target gene) and BCL11A and SPIB (target genes of HLX) are described as suppressors and activators of EBV and showed reduced and elevated expression levels in AM-HLH, respectively. Taken together, this cell line deals with two conflicting oncogenic drivers, namely JAK2-STAT3-signalling and EBV-infection but is sensitive to cytokine signalling, mediating a switch between these aberrant pathways. Thus, AM-HLH represents an interesting cell line model to study the pathogenic roles of STAT3 and EBV and their therapeutic implications in HL.
