HOXA9 transcriptomic analysis in GBM cell lines (U87MG, U251 and primary GBML18) and in immortalized human astrocytes (hTERT/E6/E7)

ABSTRACT: Assess gene expression patterns upon HOXA9 ectopic expression in U87MG GBM cell line and hTERT/E6/E7 immortalized human astrocytes, and HOXA9 silencing in U251 and GBML18 GBM cell lines. U87MG and hTERT/E6/E7 were retrovirally-infected with an MSCV control vector (MSCV-Control) or with a construct containing the coding region of HOXA9 (MSCV-HOXA9), resulting in U87MG-Control, U87MG-HOXA9, hTERT/E6/E7-Control and hTERT/E6/E7-HOXA9 cell lines. GBML18 and U251 cells were transfected with HOXA9 gene-specific shRNA sequences (shHOXA9) or a non-efective shRNA (shControl) in pGFP-V-RS plasmid, resulting in U251-shControl, U251-shHOXA9, GBML18-shControl and GBML18-shHOXA9 cell lines. Four experimental replicates for HOXA9 overexpression cell lines, and three for HOXA9 silencing cell lines were performed.

Establishment of five immortalized human ovarian surface epithelial cell lines via SV40 T antigen or HPV E6/E7 expression.

Project description:BackgroundHuman ovarian surface epithelial (HOSE) cells are a critical cell source for ovarian cancer research; however, they are difficult to obtain and maintain under standard laboratory conditions in large quantities. The aim of this study was to generate immortalized HOSE (IHOSE) cells with maintained properties to the original cell source, thereby guaranteeing a sufficiently large cell quantity for ovarian cancer research.MethodsHOSE cells isolated from four non-cancer patients and five IHOSE cell lines were established by induction of HPV-E6/E7 expression or SV40 large T antigen using a lenti-viral system. Each of IHOSE cells was confirmed to be distinct by STR profiling. RNA-sequencing was used to compare gene expression profiles in HOSE, IHOSE and ovarian cancer cells.ResultsRNA-sequencing results revealed a stronger linear correlation in gene expression between IHOSE and HOSE cells (R2 = 0.9288) than between IHOSE or HOSE cells and ovarian cancer cells (R2 = 0.8562 and R2 = 0.7982, respectively). The gene expression pattern of 319 differentially expressed genes revealed minimal differences between HOSE and IHOSE cells, while a strong difference between ovarian cancer cells and HOSE or IHOSE cells was observed. Furthermore, the five IHOSE cell lines displayed morphological characteristics typical of epithelial cells but showed a lower level of EpCAM, CD133 and E-cadherin, as cancer stem marker, than ovarian cancer cells. Moreover, unlike cancer cells, IHOSE cells could not form colonies in the anchorage-independent soft agar growth assay.ConclusionThese findings demonstrate that five newly established IHOSE cell lines have characteristics of progenitor HOSE cells while exhibiting continuous growth, and thus, should be highly useful as control cells for ovarian cancer research.

Establishment and Characterization of <i>hTERT</i> Immortalized Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Fibroblast Cell Lines.

Project description:Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare premature aging syndrome caused by a dominant mutation in the LMNA gene. Previous research has shown that the ectopic expression of the catalytic subunit of telomerase (hTERT) can elongate the telomeres of the patients' fibroblasts. Here, we established five immortalized HGP fibroblast cell lines using retroviral infection with the catalytic subunit of hTERT. Immortalization enhanced the proliferative life span by at least 50 population doublings (PDs). The number of cells with typical senescence signs was reduced by 63 + 17%. Furthermore, the growth increase and phenotype improvement occurred with a lag phase of 50-100 days and was not dependent on the degree of telomere elongation. The initial telomeric stabilization after hTERT infection and relatively low amounts of hTERT mRNA were sufficient for the phenotype improvement but the retroviral infection procedure was associated with transient cell stress. Our data have implications for therapeutic strategies in HGP and other premature aging syndromes.

Characterization of hTERT-immortalized osteoblast cell lines generated from wild-type and connexin43-null mouse calvaria.

Project description:The gap junction protein connexin43 (Cx43) has been proposed to play key roles in bone differentiation and mineralization, but underlying cellular mechanisms are not totally understood. To further explore roles of Cx43 in these processes, we immortalized calvarial osteoblasts from wild-type and Cx43-null mice using human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT). Osteoblastic (MOB) cell lines were generated from three individual wild-type and three individual Cx43-null mouse calvaria. Average population doubling times of the cell lines were higher than of the primary osteoblasts but did not greatly differ with regard to genotype. Modest to high level of Cx45 expression was detected in MOBs of both genotypes. Most of the cell lines expressed osteoblastic markers [Type I collagen, osteopontin, osteocalcin, parathyroid hormone/parathyroid hormone-related peptide receptor (PTH/PTHrP), periostin (OSF-2), osterix (Osx), runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), alkaline phosphatase (ALP)], and mineralization was comparable to that of primary osteoblasts. Two MOB cell lines from each genotype with most robust maintenance of osteoblast lineage markers were analyzed in greater detail, revealing that the Cx43-null cell lines showed a significant delay in early differentiation (up to 9 days in culture). Matrix mineralization was markedly delayed in one of the Cx43-null lines and slightly delayed in the other. These findings comparing new and very stable wild-type and Cx43-null osteoblastic cell lines define a role for Cx43 in early differentiation and mineralization stages of osteoblasts and further support the concept that Cx43 plays important role in the cellular processes associated with skeleton function.

Viral E6/E7 oncogene and cellular hexokinase 2 expression in HPV-positive cancer cell lines.

Project description:Oncogenic types of human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are major human carcinogens. Cancer cells typically exhibit metabolic alterations which support their malignant growth. These include an enhanced rate of aerobic glycolysis ('Warburg effect') which in cancer cells is often linked to an increased expression of the rate-limiting glycolytic enzyme Hexokinase 2 (HK2). Intriguingly, recent studies indicate that the HPV E6/E7 oncogenes cause the metabolic reprogramming in HPV-positive cancer cells by directly upregulating HK2 expression. Notably, however, these results were obtained upon ectopic overexpression of E6/E7. Here, we investigated whether HK2 levels are affected by the endogenous E6/E7 amounts present in HPV-positive cancer cell lines. RNA interference analyses reveal that the sustained E6/E7 expression is critical to maintain HK2 expression levels in HeLa cells. Mechanistically, this effect is linked to the E6/E7-dependent upregulation of HK2-stimulatory MYC expression and the E6/E7-induced downregulation of the HK2-inhibitory micro(mi)RNA miR-143-3p. Importantly, however, a stimulatory effect of E6/E7 on HK2 expression was observed only in HeLa among a panel of 8 different HPV-positive cervical and head and neck cancer cell lines. Thus, whereas these results support the notion that E6/E7 can increase HK2 expression, they argue against the concept that the viral oncogenes, at endogenous expression levels, commonly induce the metabolic switch of HPV-positive cancer cells towards aerobic glycolysis by directly or indirectly stimulating HK2 expression.

Large-scale analysis of protein expression changes in human keratinocytes immortalized by human papilloma virus type 16 E6 and E7 oncogenes.

Project description:BackgroundInfection with high-risk type human papilloma viruses (HPVs) is associated with cervical carcinomas and with a subset of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas. Viral E6 and E7 oncogenes cooperate to achieve cell immortalization by a mechanism that is not yet fully understood. Here, human keratinocytes were immortalized by long-term expression of HPV type 16 E6 or E7 oncoproteins, or both. Proteomic profiling was used to compare expression levels for 741 discrete protein features.ResultsSix replicate measurements were performed for each group using two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE). The median within-group coefficient of variation was 19-21%. Significance of between-group differences was tested based on Significance Analysis of Microarray and fold change. Expression of 170 (23%) of the protein features changed significantly in immortalized cells compared to primary keratinocytes. Most of these changes were qualitatively similar in cells immortalized by E6, E7, or E6/7 expression, indicating convergence on a common phenotype, but fifteen proteins (~2%) were outliers in this regulatory pattern. Ten demonstrated opposite regulation in E6- and E7-expressing cells, including the cell cycle regulator p16INK4a; the carbohydrate binding protein Galectin-7; two differentially migrating forms of the intermediate filament protein Cytokeratin-7; HSPA1A (Hsp70-1); and five unidentified proteins. Five others had a pattern of expression that suggested cooperativity between the co-expressed oncoproteins. Two of these were identified as forms of the small heat shock protein HSPB1 (Hsp27).ConclusionThis large-scale analysis provides a framework for understanding the cooperation between E6 and E7 oncoproteins in HPV-driven carcinogenesis.

Human papillomavirus E6 and E7: What remains?

Project description:Decades of research on the human papillomavirus oncogenes, E6 and E7, have given us huge amounts of data on their expression, functions and structures. We know much about the very many cellular proteins and pathways that they influence in one way or another. However, much of this information is quite discrete, referring to one activity examined under one condition. It is now time to join the dots to try to understand a larger picture: how, where and when do all these interactions occur... and why? Examining these questions will also show how many of the yet obscure cellular processes work together for cellular and tissue homeostasis in health and disease.
