Project description:The Hippo pathway effectors yes-associated protein (YAP) and WW domain containing transcription regulator 1 (TAZ/WWTR1) support tumor initiation and progression in various cancer types. However, to which extent YAP and TAZ cooperatively contribute to cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) development and progression is poorly understood. Our immunohistochemical studies showed that YAP and TAZ were expressed in different CCA subtypes. However, nuclear co-expression was not frequently detected. RNAinterference (RNAi) experiments illustrated that YAP and TAZ supported CCA cell viability. Comprehensive expression profiling of HUCCT-1 cells after combined silencing of YAP/TAZ revealed a potential impact on chromosomal instability.

Project description:During placentation, placental cytotrophoblast cells differentiate into syncytiotrophoblast cells and extravillous trophoblast cells. In placenta, the expression of various genes is regulated by the Hippo pathway through the transcriptional coactivator YAP/TAZ-TEAD activity. To examine the effect of YAP/TAZ and/or TEAD on trophoblast differentiation, knockdown experiments were performed. Microarray analysis were performed to identify YAP/TAZ and/or TEAD target genes in human trophoblast.

Project description:To identify the YAP/TAZ target genes in granulosa cells, DNA microarray experiments were performed in KGN cells where YAP/TAZ were knocked down. The effect of the presence or absence of 8Br-cAMP, an intracellular second messenger of FSH, was also investigated in KGN cells.

Project description:The Hippo pathway plays a crucial in organ size control during development and tissue homeostasis in adult life. To examine a role for Hippo signaling in the intestinal epithelium, we analyzed gene expression patterns in the mouse intestinal epithelilum transfected with siRNAs or expression plasmids for shRNAs targeting the Hippo pathway effectors, YAP and TAZ. We performed two independent series of experiments (siGFP (n=3) vs siYAP/siTAZ (n=3), and shLacZ (n=1) vs shYAP/shTAZ (n=1)). Control siRNA (siGFP), YAP/TAZ siRNAs, or expression plasmids for control shRNA (shLacZ) or YAP/TAZ shRNAs were introduced into the mouse intestinal epithelium by the newly-developed in vivo transfection method. Four days after transfection, intestinal epithelial cells were isolated from the tissues and total RNA was extracted.

Project description:The two effector proteins of the Hippo signaling pathway, YAP and TAZ, play a pivotal role in the cellular homeostasis of podocytes and in the pathogenesis of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). We aim to unravel the unique and redundant functions of YAP and TAZ in the podocyte by identifying podocyte-specific interactors. We generated stable heat sensitive mouse podocytes (hsMPs) carrying a single copy integration of a transgenic construct expressing a flagged version of mouse Yap (3XFLAG.YAP), Taz (3XFLAG.TAZ) or Ruby (3XFLAG.RUBY) in the Rosa26 locus. To explore the interactome of YAP and TAZ in podocytes we immunoprecipitated the tagged proteins and characterized the co-immunoprecipitated protein complexes by mass spectrometry. Within the interactome analyses of the hsMPs, we identified shared and non-shared interacting proteins between YAP and TAZ. Among these identified proteins many well established interactors of YAP and TAZ were included, like proteins of the Tead family, different angiomotins or large tumor suppressor kinase 1 (Lats1). Strikingly, among the shared proteins were numerous proteins of the nuclear shuttling machinery, like importins (Ipo), exportins (Xpo), transportins (Tnpo) and nucleoporins (Nup) that form the nuclear pore complex (NPC), such as NUP107, NUP133, NUP205 and XPO5.

Project description:Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a prevalent form of cancer that develops from the epithelium of the oral cavity. OSCC is on the rise worldwide, and death rates associated with the disease are particularly high. Despite progress in understanding of the mutational and expression landscape associated with OSCC, advances in deciphering these alterations for the development of therapeutic strategies have been limited. Further insight into the molecular cues that contribute to OSCC is therefore required. Here we show that the transcriptional regulators YAP (YAP1) and TAZ (WWTR1), which are key effectors of the Hippo pathway, drive pro-tumorigenic signals in OSCC. Regions of pre-malignant oral tissues exhibit aberrant nuclear YAP accumulation, suggesting that dysregulated YAP activity contributes to the onset of OSCC. Supporting this premise, we determined that nuclear YAP and TAZ activity drives OSCC cell proliferation, survival, and migration in vitro, and is required for OSCC tumor growth and metastasis in vivo. Global gene expression profiles associated with YAP and TAZ knockdown revealed changes in the control of gene expression implicated in pro-tumorigenic signaling, including those required for cell cycle progression and survival. Notably, the transcriptional signature regulated by YAP and TAZ significantly correlates with gene expression changes occurring in human OSCCs identified by The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), emphasizing a central role for YAP and TAZ in OSCC biology. Expression profiling was conducted following the repression of the transcriptional regulators TAZ and YAP (YAP/TAZ) in human SCC2 oral cancer cells. Human SCC2 oral cancer cells were transfected with control siRNA, or siRNAs targeting TAZ, YAP, or YAP/TAZ for 48 hours. Total RNA from three independent experiments carried out on separate days was isolated and purified and the samples were then profiled on Affymetrix Human Gene 2.0 Chips at the Boston University Microarray Core. The expression profiles were processed and normalized using the Robust Multi-array Average (RMA) procedure (23) based on a custom Brainarray CDF (24). For each of the siRNA experiments, signatures of genes differentially expressed between treatment and corresponding siRNA control with an FDR q-value ?0.05 and a fold change ?2 were identified as either activated (up-regulated in control) or repressed (up-regulated in treatment). The overlap between the differentially expressed gene signatures was evaluated by Fisher test. Hierarchical gene and sample clustering was performed on the top 3000 genes with highest median absolute deviation (MAD; a robust version of the variance) across 12 samples, using “ward” as the agglomeration rule, and 1 minus Pearson correlation and Euclidean as the distance measures for genes and samples, respectively.
