Project description:We sought to determine the effect of a minor spliceosome inhibition by U6atac snRNA depletion in prostate cancer. We performed siRNA-mediated knock-down (96h) of the minor spliceosome snRNA U6atac in androgen-sensitive LNCaP cells, androgen-insensitive C4-2 and 22Rv1 cells and in patient derived neuroendocrine organoids (PM154). We compared global transcriptional alterations and lineage dependency using RNA-seq and scRNAseq.

Project description:Minor intron-containing genes (MIGs) are crucial cell cycle regulators and are essential for cell survival. Thus, we explored whether MIGs play a role in cancer progression and cancer therapy resistance. Here we show that MIG-expression segregates sensitive and resistant prostate cancer cells from each other and them from benign tissue. Moreover, the rate of minor intron splicing, a crucial regulatory node for MIG-expression, was more efficient in patients with advanced prostate cancer. We show that the increased minor spliceosome (MiS) activity is downstream of the androgen receptor signaling axis in both therapy sensitive and insensitive prostate cancer types. The increased MiS activity was in line with the elevated expression of U6atac snRNA, a crucial MiS component. We propose the expression of U6atac as a potential point of vulnerability in cancer. MIGs are uniquely susceptible to the MiS, so we used siRNA against U6atac, which like protein-coding transcripts, is downregulated. Inhibition of MiS was sufficient to lower the tumor burden significantly in therapy-resistant (prostate) cancer cells and PCa patient-derived organoids. KD cells displayed elevated minor intron retention and alternative splicing across minor introns of MIGs which enriched for MAPK activity, DNA repair and cell cycle regulation. Importantly, these findings were confirmed by MassSpec analysis. Collectively our study nominates the MiS as a driver of highly proliferative, rapidly dividing (prostate) cancer cells that bears strong potential as a therapeutic target for many different cancer types.

Project description:Mutations in the minor spliceosome components such as RNU4atac, a small nuclear RNA (snRNA), are linked to primary microcephaly. We have reported that in the conditional knockout (cKO) mice for Rnu11, a minor spliceosome snRNA, minor intron splicing defect in minor intron-containing genes (MIGs) regulating cell cycle resulted in cell cycle defect with a concomitant increase in yH2aX+ cells and P53-mediated apoptosis. Trp53 ablation in the Rnu11 cKO mice did not prevent microcephaly. Although RNAseq analysis of the double knockout (dKO) pallium reflected transcriptomic shift towards the control from the cKO. We found elevated minor intron retention and alternative splicing across minor introns in the dKO. Disruption of these minor intron-containing genes (MIGs) resulted in cell cycle defect that was detected earlier and was more severe in the dKO, but with delayed detection of yH2aX+ DNA damage. Thus, P53 might also play a role in causing DNA damage in the developing pallium. In all, our findings further refine our understanding of the role of the minor spliceosome in cortical development and identify MIGs underpinning microcephaly in minor spliceosome-related disease.

Project description:LNCaP and its androgen insensitive derivative were profiled in order to identify genes differentially expressed during the conversion to androgen insensitivity. This experiment was performed due to the presence of an ins(7;14) localizing the entire ETV1 locus to chr 14 in LNCaP and C4-2B prostate cancer cells. Keywords: cell type comparison

Project description:Although the vital role of the androgen receptor (AR) has been well demonstrated in primary prostate cancers, its role in the androgen-insensitive prostate cancers still remains unclear. Here, we used a small hairpin RNA approach to directly assess AR activity in prostate cancer cells. Reduction of AR expression in the two androgen-sensitive prostate cancer cell lines, LNCaP and LAPC4, significantly decreased AR-mediated transcription and cell growth. Intriguingly, in two androgen-insensitive prostate cell lines, LNCaP-C42B4 and CWR22Rv1, knockdown of AR expression showed a more pronounced effect on AR-induced transcription and cell growth than androgen depletion. Using cDNA microarrays, we also compared the transcriptional profiles induced by either androgen depletion or AR knockdown. Although a significant number of transcripts appear to be regulated by both androgen depletion and AR knockdown, we observed a subset of transcripts affected only by androgen depletion but not by AR knockdown, and vice versa. Finally, we demonstrated a direct role for AR in promoting tumor formation and growth in a xenograft model. Taken together, our results elucidate an important role for the AR in androgen-insensitive prostate cancer cells, and suggest that AR can be used as a therapeutic target for androgen-insensitive prostate cancers.

Project description:Treatment-induced neuroendocrine transdifferentiation (NEtD) complicates therapies for metastatic prostate cancer (PCa). We propose that NEtD requires first an intermediary reprogramming to metastable cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) and showed that AR+/PSA+ PCa cell lines were efficiently reprogrammed to and maintained as CSCs by growth in androgen-free neural/neural crest (N/NC) stem medium. Such reprogrammed CSCs overexpressed stem genes, had features of N/NC stem cells, high tumor-initiating potential, resistance to anti-androgen and an EMT phenotype. Serum-containing mediums allowed re-differentiation to N-/NC-derived cell lineages or return back to PCa-like cancer cells. Once returned, the cells had increased resistance to androgen signaling inhibition. Finally, a 62-gene signature derived from reprogrammed PCa cell lines distinguished tumors from PCa patients with adverse outcomes. Gene expression profiles were obtained for RNAs extracted from biological replicates of parental LNCaP cells or from Neuroendocrine-like LNCaP (LNCaP-NE) cells grown for 15 days in CSS-media with no androgen.
