Wnt10b-GSK3?-dependent Wnt/STOP signaling prevents aneuploidy in human somatic cells.

ABSTRACT: Wnt signaling is crucial for proper development, tissue homeostasis and cell cycle regulation. A key role of Wnt signaling is the GSK3?-mediated stabilization of ?-catenin, which mediates many of the critical roles of Wnt signaling. In addition, it was recently revealed that Wnt signaling can also act independently of ?-catenin. In fact, Wnt mediated stabilization of proteins (Wnt/STOP) that involves an LRP6-DVL-dependent signaling cascade is required for proper regulation of mitosis and for faithful chromosome segregation in human somatic cells. We show that inhibition of Wnt/LRP6 signaling causes whole chromosome missegregation and aneuploidy by triggering abnormally increased microtubule growth rates in mitotic spindles, and this is mediated by increased GSK3? activity. We demonstrate that proper mitosis and maintenance of numerical chromosome stability requires continuous basal autocrine Wnt signaling that involves secretion of Wnts. Importantly, we identified Wnt10b as a Wnt ligand required for the maintenance of normal mitotic microtubule dynamics and for proper chromosome segregation. Thus, a self-maintaining Wnt10b-GSK3?-driven cellular machinery ensures the proper execution of mitosis and karyotype stability in human somatic cells.

Wnt signaling is crucial for proper development, tissue homeostasis and cell cycle regulation. A key role of Wnt signaling is the GSK3β-mediated stabilization of β-catenin, which mediates many of the critical roles of Wnt signaling. In addition, it was recently revealed that Wnt signaling can also act independently of β-catenin. In fact, Wnt mediated stabilization of proteins (Wnt/STOP) that involves an LRP6-DVL-dependent signaling cascade is required for proper regulation of mitosis and for fai ...[more]

Project description:BackgroundHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the second lethal malignancy among all cancers. Many molecular alterations have been found in HCC. However, the interactions and modulatory mechanisms among these molecules in HCC are still unclear.MethodsCTB-193M12.5 expression in tissues and cells were detected by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). In vitro experiments were conducted to evaluate the function of CTB-193M12.5 in cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion. The interaction between CTB-193M12.5 and nuclear receptor binding SET domain-containing protein 1 (NSD1) was assessed by RNA-protein pull-down and RNA immunoprecipitation assays. The roles of CTB-193M12.5 on WNT10B and Wnt/β-catenin signaling was detected by chromatin immunoprecipitation assay, qPCR, Western blot, and dual luciferase reporter assay.ResultsWe identified a novel prognosis-related long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) CTB-193M12.5 in HCC. CTB-193M12.5 was upregulated in HCC and its high expression was correlated with alpha fetoprotein, large tumor size, aggressive clinical characteristics, and poor survival. Functional experiments showed that CTB-193M12.5 enhanced HCC cellular proliferation, suppressed HCC cellular apoptosis, and promoted HCC cellular migration and invasion. CTB-193M12.5 knockdown exerted opposite effects in HCC. Mechanistic investigation demonstrated that CTB-193M12.5 was mainly distributed in nucleus. Histone methyltransferase NSD1 was identified as a CTB-193M12.5 interactor. CTB-193M12.5 bound and recruited NSD1 to the promoter of WNT10B, leading to an increase in di-methylation of histone H3 at lysine 36 (H3K36me2) and the reduction of tri-methylation of histone H3 at lysine 27 (H3K27me3) at WNT10B promoter. Therefore, CTB-193M12.5 epigenetically activated WNT10B transcription. Through upregulating WNT10B, CTB-193M12.5 further activated Wnt/β-catenin signaling. Functional rescue experiments demonstrated that overexpression of WNT10B reversed the tumor suppressive roles of CTB-193M12.5 knockdown, while Wnt/β-catenin signaling inhibitor ICG-001 abolished the oncogenic roles of CTB-193M12.5 overexpression.ConclusionCTB-193M12.5 was a highly expressed and poor prognosis-related lncRNA in HCC. CTB-193M12.5 functioned as an oncogenic lncRNA through promoting NSD1-mediated WNT10B/Wnt/β-catenin signaling activation.

Project description:The cellular and organismal phenotypic response to a small-molecule kinase inhibitor is defined collectively by the inhibitor's targets and their functions. The selectivity of small-molecule kinase inhibitors is commonly determined in vitro, using purified kinases and substrates. Recently, competitive chemical proteomics has emerged as a complementary, unbiased, cell-based methodology to define the target landscape of kinase inhibitors. Here, we evaluated and optimized a competitive multiplexed inhibitor bead mass spectrometry (MIB/MS) platform using cell lysates, live cells, and treated mice. Several clinically active kinase inhibitors were profiled, including trametinib, BMS-777607, dasatinib, abemaciclib, and palbociclib. MIB/MS competition analyses of the cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors abemaciclib and palbociclib revealed overlapping and unique kinase targets. Competitive MIB/MS analysis of abemaciclib revealed 83 target kinases, and dose-response MIB/MS profiling revealed glycogen synthase kinase 3 alpha and beta (GSK3α and β) and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II delta and gamma (CAMKIIδ and γ) as the most potently inhibited. Cell-based and in vitro kinase assays show that in contrast to palbociclib, abemaciclib directly inhibits GSK3α/β and CAMKIIγ/δ kinase activity at low nanomolar concentrations. GSK3β phosphorylates β-catenin to suppress WNT signaling, while abemaciclib (but not palbociclib or ribociclib) potently activates β-catenin-dependent WNT signaling. These data illustrate the power of competitive chemical proteomics to define kinase target specificities for kinase inhibitors, thus informing clinical efficacy, dose-limiting toxicities, and drug-repurposing efforts.Implications: This study uses a rapid and quantitative proteomics approach to define inhibitor-target data for commonly administered therapeutics and provides a cell-based alternative to in vitro kinome profiling.
