Chromatin remodellers Brg1 and Bptf are required for normal gene expression and progression of oncogenic Braf-driven mouse melanoma [ChIP-seq]

ABSTRACT: Somatic oncogenic mutation of BRAF coupled with inactivation of PTEN constitute a frequent combination of genomic alterations driving development of human melanoma. Mice genetically engineered to conditionally express oncogenic BrafV600E and inactivate Pten in melanocytes following tamoxifen treatment rapidly develop melanoma. While early stage melanomas comprised melanin-pigmented Mitf and Dct-expressing cells, expression of these and other melanocyte identity genes was lost in later stage tumours that showed histological and molecular characteristics of de-differentiated neural crest type cells. Melanocyte identity genes displayed loss of active chromatin marks and RNA polymerase II and gain of heterochromatin marks indicating epigenetic reprogramming during tumour progression. Nevertheless, late stage tumour cells grown in culture re-expressed Mitf and melanocyte markers and Mitf together with Sox10 co-regulated a large number of genes essential for their growth. In this melanoma model, somatic inactivation that the catalytic Brg1 (Smarca4) subunit of the SWI/SNF complex and the scaffolding Bptf subunit of the NuRF delayed tumour formation and deregulated large and overlapping gene expression programs essential for normal tumour cell growth. Moreover, we show that Brg1 and Bptf co-regulated many genes together with Mitf and Sox10. Together these transcription factors and chromatin remodelling complexes orchestrate essential gene expression programs in mouse melanoma cells

Chromatin remodellers Brg1 and Bptf are required for normal gene expression and progression of oncogenic Braf-driven mouse melanoma [RNA-seq]

Project description:We have used a mouse model where melanoma can be induced by Tamoxifen treatment that induces expression of oncogenic Braf and deletion of Pten in the melanocyte lineage using a Tyr::Cre-ER-T2 transgene to mediate recombination. Cells from these melanoma tumours were cultured in vitro and the effects of siRNA mediated silencing of transcription factors Mitf and Sox10 was performed and analysed by RNA-seq. We then crossed these mice with mice bearing floxed alleles of the genes encoding the chromatin remodelling factors Bptf and Brg1 (Smarca4). Tumour cells were grown in culture and Bptf or Brg1 inactivated by 4-OHT treatment. The effects on gene expression were assessed by RNA-seq.

BRG1 recruitment by transcription factors MITF and SOX10 defines a specific configuration of regulatory elements in the melanocyte lineage (ChIP-seq)

Project description:Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) is the master regulator of the melanocyte lineage. By tandem affinity purification and mass spectrometry, we present a comprehensive characterisation of the MITF interactome comprising multiple novel cofactors involved in transcription, DNA replication and repair and chromatin organisation, including a BRG1 chromatin remodelling complex comprising CHD7. BRG1 is essential for melanoma cell proliferation in vitro and for normal melanocyte development in vivo. MITF and SOX10 actively recruit BRG1 to a set of MITF-associated regulatory elements (MAREs) at active enhancers. MITF, SOX10 and YY1 bind between two BRG1-occupied nucleosomes thus defining both a combinatorial signature of transcription factors essential for the melanocyte lineage and a specific chromatin organisation of MAREs. Nevertheless, BRG1 silencing enhances MITF occupancy at MAREs showing that BRG1 acts to promote dynamic MITF interactions with chromatin. 8 samples corresponding to genomic occupancy profiling of MITF, SOX10, BRG1 after si-control, BRG1 after si-MITF and BRG1 after siSOX10; and their respective controls (MITF Input, SOX10 Input, GFP-siCTRL ChIPseq) in 501Mel cells.

Chromatin-remodelling complex NURF is essential for differentiation of adult melanocyte stem cells

Project description:MIcrophthalmia-associated Transcription Factor (MITF) regulates melanocyte and melanoma physiology. ShRNA-mediated silencing of the NURF subunit BPTF revealed its essential role in several melanoma cell lines and in untransformed melanocytes in vitro. Comparative RNA-seq shows that MITF and BPTF co-regulate overlapping gene expression programs in cell lines in vitro. Somatic and specific inactivation of Bptf in developing murine melanoblasts in vivo shows that Bptf regulates their proliferation, migration and morphology. Once born, Bptf-mutant mice display premature greying where the second post-natal coat is white. This second coat is normally pigmented by differentiated melanocytes derived from the adult melanocyte stem cell (MSC) population that is stimulated to proliferate and differentiate at anagen. An MSC population is established and maintained throughout the life of the Bptf- mutant mice, but these MSCs are abnormal and at anagen, give rise to reduced numbers of transient amplifying cells (TACs) that do not express melanocyte markers and fail to differentiate into mature melanin producing melanocytes. MSCs display a transcriptionally repressed chromatin state and Bptf is essential for reactivation of the melanocyte gene expression program at anagen, the subsequent normal proliferation of TACs and their differentiation into mature melanocytes.

DNA Promoter Hypermethylation of Melanocyte Lineage Genes Determines Melanoma Phenotype

Project description:Cellular stress contributes to the capacity of melanoma cells to undergo phenotype switching into highly migratory and drug tolerant dedifferentiated states. Such dedifferentiated melanoma cell states are marked by loss of melanocyte specific gene expression and increase of mesenchymal markers. Two crucial transcription factors, MITF and SOX10, important in melanoma development and progression have been implicated in this process. In this study we describe that loss of MITF is associated with a distinct transcriptional program, MITF promoter hypermethylation and poor patient survival in metastatic melanoma. From a comprehensive collection of melanoma cell lines, we observed that MITF methylated cultures were subdivided in two distinct subtypes. Examining mRNA levels of neural crest associated genes we found that one subtype had lost the expression of several lineage genes including SOX10. Intriguingly, SOX10 loss was associated with SOX10 gene promoter hypermethylation and distinct phenotypic and metastatic properties. Depletion of SOX10 in MITF methylated melanoma cells using CRISPR/Cas9 confirmed these findings. In conclusion, this study describes the significance of melanoma state and the underlying functional properties explaining the aggressiveness of such states.

The MITF-SOX10 regulated long non-coding RNA DIRC3 is a melanoma tumour suppressor

Project description:The MITF and SOX10 transcription factors regulate the expression of genes important for melanoma proliferation, invasion and metastasis. Despite growing evidence of the contribution of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in melanoma and other cancers, their functions within MITF-SOX10 transcriptional programmes is poorly investigated. Here, we identify 245 candidate melanoma associated lncRNAs whose loci are co-occupied by MITF-SOX10 and are enriched at active enhancer-like regions. We characterise the function and molecular mechanism of action of one of these lncRNAs, Disrupted In Renal Carcinoma 3 (DIRC3), and show that it operates as a MITF-SOX10 regulated tumour suppressor. DIRC3 depletion in human melanoma cells leads to increased anchorage-independent growth, a hallmark of malignant transformation, whilst melanoma patients classified by low DIRC3 expression have decreased survival. DIRC3 is a nuclear lncRNA that functions locally to activate expression of its neighbouring IGFBP5 tumour suppressor through modulation of chromatin structure and suppression of SOX10 binding to putative regulatory elements within the DIRC3 locus. In turn, DIRC3 dependent regulation of IGFBP5 impacts the expression of genes important for cell metabolism, oxidative phosphorylation and cancer. Our work indicates that lncRNA components of MITF-SOX10 networks are an important new class of melanoma regulators and candidate therapeutic targets.

siRNA-mediated knockdown of MITF and PAX3 in metastatic melanoma cell lines

Project description:The transcription factors PAX3 and MITF are required for the development of the neural crest and melanocyte lineage, and both proteins play important roles in melanoma cell growth and survival. PAX3 transcriptionally activates MITF expression during neural crest development, but the relationship between these transcription factors during melanocyte development and in melanoma cells is currently poorly understood. This study aimed to further our understanding of the interaction between transcriptional networks controlled by PAX3 and MITF by assessing the effect of siRNA-mediated knockdown of PAX3 and MITF in metastatic melanoma cell lines. The goals of this study were to determine (i) if PAX3 is required for maintaining expression of MITF in melanoma and melanocyte cell lines; (ii) whether PAX3 and MITF independently, or redundantly, influence growth and survival in melanoma cell lines; and (iii) to investigate the respective roles of PAX3 and MITF expression in melanoma cell differentiation. Microarrays were used to measure global changes in transcript expression in response to siRNA-mediated knockdown of PAX3 or MITF compared to non-targeting controls in two metastatic melanoma cells lines. RNA was isolated from two different metastatic melanoma cell lines 30 hours after one of four different treaments: (i) transfection with siRNA targeting PAX3; or (ii) transfection with siRNA targeting MITF; or (iii) or transfection with siRNA targeting luciferase (non-targeting negative control); or (iv) treatment with media only (control). Therefore, eight samples were used for gene expression profiling by using GeneChip arrays, with one replicate per cell line per treatment.
