Altered Epigenetic Regulation of Homeobox Genes in Human Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Cells

ABSTRACT: To gain insight into the molecular changes during OSCC carcinogenesis, we performed unbiased, whole genome deep sequencing (RNA-seq) using RNA isolated from cultured, human TERT-immortalized, non-tumorigenic OKF6-TERT1R and OSCC SCC-9 cells. OKF6-TERT1R cells and SCC-9 cells were plated in 10 cm2 tissue culture plates at the density of 2 × 106 cells/plate and treated with 1 μM RA or vehicle (0.1% ethanol) for 48 hours. Experiment includes 3 independent biological replicates. Note: All samples in SRA were assigned the same sample accession (GSM1245064 1). This is incorrect as there are different samples, hence “Source Name” was replaced with new values. Comment[ENA_SAMPLE] contains the original SRA sample accessions.

To gain insight into oral squamous cell carcinogenesis, we performed deep sequencing (RNAseq) of non-tumorigenic human OKF6-TERT1R and tumorigenic SCC-9 cells. Numerous homeobox genes are differentially expressed between OKF6-TERT1R and SCC-9 cells. Data from Oncomine, a cancer microarray database, also show that homeobox (HOX) genes are dysregulated in oral SCC patients. The activity of Polycomb repressive complexes (PRC), which causes epigenetic modifications, and retinoic acid (RA) signaling ...[more]

Project description:Maternal 5-HT1A-receptor (R) is required for the timely development of the hippocampus and the establishment of emotional behaviors in Swiss-Webster (SW) mice. A partial and/or complete loss of maternal 5-HT1AR results in delayed ventral dentate granule cell (v-DGC) development and subsequent anxiety-like phenotype in the wild-type offspring by a non-genetic, presumably epigenetic mechanism. Here we tested v-DGCs for genome-wide DNA methylation changes elicited by the receptor deficient maternal environment. We identified a set of hypomethylated regions in the offspring of receptor deficient mothers. A significant fraction of these maternal-differentially methylated regions (m-DMRs) mapped to strong CpG islands, sequences that are typically not methylated or if methylated, resistant to environmental-induced changes. Many m-DMRs mapped to exons and some were associated with expression changes. Their hypomethylation was due to an arrest in de novo methylation and, to a lesser extent, to demethylation during postnatal life indicating that the perturbation in methylation coincides with the developmental delay in DGC maturation in the offspring of receptor deficient mothers. Inhibiting methylation in differentiating neurons impaired their maturation further suggesting a link between de novo methylation and neuronal differentiation. These data suggest that methylation at specific exonic CpG-islands may contribute to the mechanism through which maternal 5-HT1AR modulates hippocampal development and consecutively the level of anxiety in the SW offspring. Reduced 5-HT1AR-binding has been reported in individuals, particularly in association with anxiety/depression, including peri/postpartum depression. Therefore, maternal receptor deficit may contribute, via a non-genetic mechanism, to the high prevalence and heritability of anxiety disorders in human. Examined transcriptomes of 5HT1A wild type offspring with 5HT1A wild type/heterozygous mother or 5HT1A KO offspring with 5HT1A of heterozygous/knock out mother
