Project description:Renal tumors that arise in individuals with BHD Syndrome represent a molecularly distinct form of renal cancer. In addition, BHD syndrome is due to a mutation the folliculin gene (FLCN). While the folliculin gene is an important tumor suppressor gene, the molecular function of this gene is not well defined. By analyzing tumor samples that contain FLCN mutations, we demonstrate that the FLCN gene is an important regulator of mitochondrial function.

Project description:Chromosomal abnormalities, such as structural and numerical abnormalities, are a common occurrence in cancer. The close association of homologous chromosomes during interphase, a phenomenon termed somatic chromosome pairing, has been observed in cancerous cells, but the functional consequences of somatic pairing have not been established. Gene expression profiling studies revealed that somatic pairing of chromosome 19 is a recurrent chromosomal abnormality in renal oncocytoma, a neoplasia of the adult kidney. Somatic pairing was associated with significant disruption of gene expression within the paired regions and resulted in the deregulation of the prolyl-hydroxylase EGLN2, a key protein that regulates the oxygen-dependent degradation of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF). Overexpression of EGLN2 in renal oncocytoma increased ubiquitin-mediated destruction of HIF and concomitantly suppressed the expression of several HIF-target genes, including the pro-death BNIP3L gene. The transcriptional changes that are associated with somatic pairing of chromosome 19 mimic the transcriptional changes that occur following DNA amplification. Therefore, in addition to numerical and structural chromosomal abnormalities, alterations in chromosomal spatial dynamics should be considered as genomic events that are associated with tumorigenesis. The identification of EGLN2 as a significantly deregulated gene that maps within the paired chromosome region directly implicates defects in the oxygen-sensing network to the biology of renal oncocytoma.

Project description:Birt-Hogg-Dubè (BHD) syndrome is an inherited condition caused by loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding the tumor-suppressor protein folliculin (FLCN) and frequently associated with kidney cysts and cancer. FLCN acts as a negative regulator of TFEB and TFE3 transcription factors, master controllers of lysosomal biogenesis and autophagy, by enabling their phosphorylation by the mechanistic Target Of Rapamycin Complex 1 (mTORC1). We previously showed that deletion of TFEB rescued the renal cystic phenotype of kidney-specific Flcn KO mice. Using Flcn/TFEB/TFE3 double and triple KO mice we now show that both TFEB and TFE3 contribute, in a differential and cooperative manner, to kidney cystogenesis. Importantly, silencing of either TFEB or TFE3 rescued tumorigenesis in patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) generated from a kidney tumor of a BHD patient. Furthermore, transcriptome analyses performed in transgenic mice, PDXs and patient tumor samples revealed TFEB/TFE3 downstream targets that may contribute to their tumorigenic activity. Our findings demonstrate in disease-relevant models that TFEB and TFE3 are key drivers of kidney tumorigenesis and suggest novel therapeutic strategies based on the inhibition of these transcription factors.
