Project description:Transcriptomic analysis of the well-characterized Ewing sarcoma cell line A673 indicated that one of the genes more strongly upregulated by EWSR1-FLI1 was FEZF1 (FEZ family zinc finger protein 1), a transcriptional repressor involved in brain development and neural cell identity. FEZF1 was highly expressed in Ewing sarcoma cells but not in other bone tumors such as osteosarcoma or chondrosarcoma. FEZF1 promoter contains a large GGAA-microsatellite and the number of GGAA repeats correlated positively with FEZF1 expression levels in Ewing sarcoma cell lines. To characterize the functional role of FEZF1 in Ewing sarcoma we analyzed the effect of FEZF1 knockdown in three Ewing sarcoma cell lines (A673, SKNMC, SKES1). FEZF1 knockdown inhibited clone formation in clonogenic assays and cell proliferation. Finally, we analyzed the FEZF1-dependent expression profile in A673 cells by RNAseq. Interestingly, several neural genes regulated by FEZF1 were concomitantly regulated by EWSR1-FLI1. In summary, FEZF1 is a transcriptional target of EWSR1-FLI1 in Ewing sarcoma cells involved in the regulation of neural-specific genes which could explain, at least in part, the neural-like phenotype observed in several Ewing sarcoma tumors and derived cell lines.

Project description:Ewing sarcoma is an aggressive pediatric small round cell tumor that predominantly occurs in bone. Approximately 85% of Ewing sarcomas harbor the EWS/FLI fusion protein, which arises from a chromosomal translocation, t(11:22)(q24:q12). EWS/FLI interacts with numerous lineage-essential transcription factors to maintain mesenchymal progenitors in an undifferentiated state. We previously showed that EWS/FLI binds the osteogenic transcription factor RUNX2 and prevents osteoblast differentiation. In this study, we investigated the role of another Runt-domain protein, RUNX3, in Ewing sarcoma. RUNX3 participates in mesenchymal-derived bone formation and is a context dependent tumor suppressor and oncogene. RUNX3 was detected in all Ewing sarcoma cells examined, whereas RUNX2 was detected in only 73% of specimens. Like RUNX2, RUNX3 binds to EWS/FLI via its Runt domain. EWS/FLI prevented RUNX3 from activating the transcription of a RUNX-responsive reporter, p6OSE2. Stable suppression of RUNX3 expression in the Ewing sarcoma cell line A673 delayed colony growth in anchorage independent soft agar assays and reversed expression of EWS/FLI-responsive genes. These results demonstrate an important role for RUNX3 in Ewing sarcoma. RNA-seq to compare transcriptiome of control A673 ewing sarcoma cells stably expression a non-target or RUNX3 shRNA

Project description:Primary pediatric Ewing sarcoma (ES), one uncharacterized sarcoma as well as primary and well established ES cell lines were compared to probes of different normal tissues 8 Ewing sarcoma patient samples (MuET-x), 3 primary ES cell lines (SB-KMS-y), 3 well established ES cell lines (A673, SK-N-MC, RD-ES) and 22 normal tissues (PBMC, spleen, thymus, stomach, ...., uterus, fetal brain, fetal liver) were analyzed.

Project description:To get insight in the functional role of EGR2 for Ewing sarcoma, we performed a transcriptional profiling of Ewing sarcoma cells after knockdown of EGR2 and compared the resulting transcriptional signature with that of EWSR1-FLI1-silenced Ewing sarcoma cells. In accordance with the strong EGR2-induction by EWSR1-FLI1, both genes highly significantly overlap in their transcriptional signatures. Gene-set enrichment analyses (GSEA) and DAVID (Database for Annotation, Visualisation and Integrated Discovery) gene ontology analyses indicated a strong impact of EGR2 on cholesterol and lipid biosynthesis resembling its function in orchestrating lipid metabolism of myelinating Schwann cells. A673 and SK-N-MC Ewing sarcoma cells were transfected with specific siRNAs directed against EGR2 or EWSR1-FLI1 or non-targeting control siRNA. 48 h thereafter RNA was harvested and processed for microarray analysis.

Project description:Comparison of gene expression profile of Ewing sarcoma cells which have an exchange of the endogenous EWS/FLI1 to either wild-type or a turnover-deficient mutant EWS/FLI1. Most target genes are saturated as only a few target genes are soly driven by increasing protein amount. The effect of a stable EWS/FLI1 mutant on global gene expression was evaluated in A673 Ewing sarcoma cells.

Project description:We show that EWS-FLI1, an aberrant transcription factor responsible for the pathogenesis of Ewing sarcoma, reprograms gene regulatory circuits by directly inducing or directly repressing enhancers. At GGAA repeats, which lack regulatory potential in other cell types and are not evolutionarily conserved, EWS- FLI1 multimers potently induce chromatin opening, recruit p300 and WDR5, and create de novo enhancers. GGAA repeat enhancers can loop to physically interact with target promoters, as demonstrated by chromosome conformation capture assays. Conversely, EWS-FLI1 inactivates conserved enhancers containing canonical ETS motifs by displacing wild-type ETS transcription factors and abrogating p300 recruitment. ChIP-seq for of 4 histone modifications (H3K27ac, H3K4me1, H3K4me3 and H3K27me3), FLI1, p300, WDR5, ELF1 and GABPA in primary Ewing sarcomas, Ewing sarcoma cell lines (A673 and SKMNC cells), and mesenchymal stem cells (MSC). EWS-FLI1 was knocked down in Ewing sarcoma cell lines with lentiviral shRNAs (shFLI1 and shGFP control). EWS-FLI1 was expressed in MSCs with lentiviral expression vectors (pLIV EWSFLI1 or pLIV empty vector control). * Raw data not provided for the MSC and Primary Ewing sarcoma samples. *

Project description:In this study we show that lysyl oxidase (LOX), an enzyme involved in maintaining structural integrity of the extracellular matrix, is expressed at low levels in Ewing sarcoma cells and primary tumors and is downregulated by the EWS/FLI1 oncoprotein characteristic of these tumors. Using a doxycycline inducible system to restore LOX expression in an Ewing sarcoma derived cell line, we show that LOX displays tumor suppressor activities. Interestingly, we show that the tumor suppressor activity resides in the propeptide domain of LOX (LOX-PP), an N-terminal domain produced by proteolytic cleavage during the physiological processing of LOX. Finally, we show that LOX-PP inhibits ERK/MAPK signalling pathway, and that many pathways involved in cell cycle progression were significant deregulated by LOX-PP, providing a mechanistic explanation to the cell proliferation inhibition observed upon LOX-PP expression. In summary, our observations indicate that deregulation of the LOX gene participates in Ewing sarcoma development and identify LOX-PP as a new therapeutic target for one of the most aggressive paediatric malignancies. These findings suggest that therapeutic strategies based in the administration of LOX propeptide or functional analogues could be useful in the treatment of this devastating paediatric cancer. A673 cells derived from Ewing sarcoma were genetically enginereed to express LOX-PP upon doxycycline stimulation (72 hours). Three independent experiments from control cells and three independent experiments from A673 cells expressing LOX-PP were done. Gene expression profile in A673 cells expressing LOX-PP vs control cells were compared.
