Atypical function of a centrosomal module in WNT signalling drives contextual cancer cell motility

ABSTRACT: Centrosomes control cell motility, polarity and migration that are thought to be mediated by their microtubule-organizing capacity. In this study we demonstrate that WNT signalling drives a distinct form of non-directional cell motility that requires a key centrosome module, but not microtubules or centrosomes. Upon exosome mobilization of Planar Cell Polarity proteins, we show that DVL2 orchestrates recruitment of a CEP192-PLK4/AURKB complex to the cell cortex where PLK4/AURKB act redundantly to drive protrusive activity and cell motility. This is mediated by coordination of formin-dependent actin remodelling through displacement of cortically localized DAAM1 for DAAM2. Furthermore, abnormal expression of PLK4, AURKB and DAAM1 is associated with poor outcomes in breast and bladder cancers. Thus, a centrosomal module plays an atypical function in WNT signalling and actin nucleation that is critical for cancer cell motility and is associated with more aggressive cancers. These studies have broad implications in how contextual signalling controls distinct modes of cell migration.

Use of the Polo-like kinase 4 (PLK4) inhibitor centrinone to investigate intracellular signaling networks using SILAC-based phosphoproteomics_C4PR

Project description:Polo-like kinase 4 (PLK4) is the master regulator of centriole duplication in metazoan organisms. Catalytic activity and protein turnover of PLK4 are tightly coupled in human cells, since changes in PLK4 concentration and catalysis have profound effects on centriole duplication and supernumerary centrosomes, which are associated with aneuploidy and cancer. Recently, PLK4 has been targeted with a variety of small molecule kinase inhibitors exemplified by centrinone, which induces inhibitory effects on PLK4 and can lead to on-target centrosome depletion. Despite this, relatively few PLK4 substrates have been identified unequivocally in human cells, and the extent of PLK4 signalling remains poorly characterised. We report an unbiased mass spectrometry-based quantitative analysis of cellular protein phosphorylation in stable PLK4-expressing human cells exposed to the small molecule inhibitor centrinone. PLK4 phosphorylation was itself sensitive to brief exposure to centrinone, resulting in PLK4 stabilization. A drug-resistant PLK4 mutant (G95R) confirmed several on-target effects of the compound towards PLK4. Using this experimental system, we report hundreds of centrinone-regulated phosphoproteins in U2OS cells, including centrosomal and cell cycle proteins and a variety of likely non cell-cycle substrates. Surprisingly, sequence interrogation of ~300 significantly downregulated phosphoproteins reveals an extensive network of centrinone-sensitive [Ser/Thr]Pro phosphorylation target sequence motifs, which based on our analysis might be either direct or indirect targets of PLK4. In addition, we confirm NMYC and PTPN12 as new PLK4 substrates, both in vitro and in human cells. Our findings suggest that PLK4 catalytic output directly controls the phosphorylation of a diverse set of cellular proteins, including Pro-directed targets that are likely to be important in PLK4-mediated cell signalling.

Gene expression comparison of MCF10A cells with and without extra centrosomes through overexpression of PLK4

Project description:The presence of extra centrosomes is a feature of human tumours. However, it is unclear what are the changes elicited by the presence of these abnormalities. To determine the changes in gene expression induced by centrosome amplification, human mammary epithelial cells, MCF10A, expressing a doxycycline inducible PLK4 cDNA were used. Centrosome amplification was induced for 48 hrs upon the addition of doxycyclin to the culture medium. RNA was purified from MCF10A cells without extra centrosomes (no dox) and with extra centrosomes (dox) and processed for microarray analysis.

Centrosome amplification triggers tumorigenesis in p53 deficient epidermis

Project description:While aneuploidy is found in more than 90% of solid tumors, it is unclear whether aneuploidy is the cause or the consequence of tumorigenesis. Different mouse models deficient in centrosomal or spindle checkpoint proteins that induce aneuploidy show either a promotion or a decrease in tumorigenesis depending on the tissues and the types of oncogenic stimuli. To investigate the effects of aneuploidy in skin development and tumorigenesis, we used Plk4 over-expression (Plk4OE) during epidermal development to assess centrosome amplification and aneuploidy. We found that PLK4OE in the developing epidermis induced centrosome amplification and multipolar divisions, consequently led to p53 stabilization and apoptosis of epidermal progenitors. This delayed epidermal stratification and induced lethal skin barrier defect in 50% of the mice. Plk4 transgene expression was shutdown postnatally in the surviving mice and PLK4OE mice never developed spontaneous skin tumors. Concomitant Plk4OE and P53 deletion (PLK4OE/p53cKO) rescued the defects in differentiation and stratification. Unexpectedly, p53 deletion did not rescue the apoptosis or eventual elimination of the cells overexpressing PLK4 and presenting multiple centrosomes. Remarkably, the short term presence of cells with supernumerary centrosomes postnatally was sufficient to generate aneuploidy and triggered spontaneous skin cancers with complete penetrance. These results reveal for the first time that aneuploidy induced by centrosome amplification, even if transient, can trigger tumorigenesis.

Centrosome amplification is sufficient to promote spontaneous tumorigenesis in mammals

Project description:Centrosome amplification is a common feature of human tumors, but whether this is a cause or a consequence of human cancer remains unclear. Here, we report the creation of a mouse model in which centrosome number can be persistently increased in the absence of additional genetic defects. We show that extra centrosomes increase tumor initiation in a mouse model of intestinal neoplasia. Most importantly, we demonstrate that supernumerary centrosomes are sufficient to drive development of spontaneous tumors in multiple tissues. Tumors with centrosome amplification exhibit frequent mitotic errors and possess complex karyotypes, recapitulating a common feature of human cancer. Together, our data support a direct causal relationship between centrosome amplification, genomic instability and tumor development. The sequences in this dataset result from random whole-genome DNA sequencing of spontaneous T- cell lymphomas, B-cell lymphomas, squamous cell carcinomas and one sarcoma from doxycycline-treated Plk4 mice.

Absolute Quantification of 10 Centrosomal Proteins

Project description:Centrioles are essential for the formation of centrosomes and cilia. While numerical and/or structural centrosomes aberrations are implicated in cancer, mutations in centriolar and centrosomal proteins are genetically linked to ciliopathies, microcephaly and dwarfism. The evolutionarily conserved mechanisms underlying centrosome biogenesis are centered on a set of key proteins, including Plk4, Sas-6 and STIL, whose exact levels are critical to ensure accurate reproduction of centrioles during cell cycle progression. However, neither the intracellular levels of centrosomal proteins nor their stoichiometry within centrosomes are presently known. Here we have used two complementary approaches, targeted proteomics and EGFP-tagging of centrosomal proteins at endogenous loci, to measure protein abundance in cultured human cells and purified centrosomes. Our results provide a first assessment of the absolute and relative amounts of major components of the human centrosome. This quantitative information makes several predictions that will guide future mechanistic and structural studies on the assembly and function of this important organelle.

The Refilin/Filamin complex regulates filipodia dynamics in oligodendrocyte progenitor cells.

Project description:Actin assembly and dynamics control the shape, motility and functions of diverse cell types. Programme for controlling theses dynamics is hard-coded into actin binding proteins and regulatory proteins. Refilins (RefilinA and RefilinB) are short lived regulatory proteins that interact with the actin-binding protein Filamin to convert it from an actin branching protein into one that bundles. We here show that different mechanisms converge to increase Refilin level in brain NG2+ precursor cells (polydendrocytes) committed to differentiate into the oligodendrocyte lineage. RefilinA is up-regulated through transcriptional activation during commitment into oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPC). RefilinB expression relies on PDGF signalling and is further stabilized by a unique auto-inhibitory domain masking the adjacent conserved PEST degradation signal. In NG2+ precursor cells and OPC, the RefilinB/Filamin complex localizes on filipodia protrusions and filipodial processes. Stable ectopic expression of Refilins in cells stimulates membrane remodelling dynamics linked with filipodia growth. These studies extend the function of the Refilin/FLNA complex to cell membrane remodelling linked with reorganization of underlying actin cytoskeleton. We performed whole transcriptomic analysis on the three cell population derived from OPC cells. Three different cultures were done and for each experiment we compared each cell population (NG2+, NG2+/A2B5 and O4) to the other 2 cell populations.

Down-regulation of Polo-like kinase 4 (PLK4) induces G1 arrest via activation of the p38/p53/p21 signalling pathway in bladder

Project description:We demonstrate that Polo-like kinase 4(PLK4) is overexpressed in human bladder cancer (BC) cell lines and tissues, and its overexpression correlates with poor prognosis. PLK4 inhibition suppresses BC cell growth and induces G1 phase arrest via activating p38/p53/p21 pathway in vitro and in vivo. The data suggest that PLK4 might serve as a novel molecular target for BC treatment.

Centrosome-mediated microtubule remodeling during axon formation in human iPSC-derived neurons

Project description:Local microtubule remodeling is critical for axon formation, the first step in establishing neuronal polarity. However, the function of the microtubule organizing centrosomes during the onset of axon formation, is still under debate. Here, we demonstrate that centrosomes play an essential role in controlling axon formation in human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived neurons. Depleting centrioles, the core components of centrosomes, in unpolarized human neuronal stem cells results in various axon developmental defects at later stages, including immature action potential firing, mistargeting of microtubule associated protein Trim46, suppressed expression of growth cone proteins and affected growth cone morphologies. Live-cell imaging of dynamic microtubules reveals that centriole loss prevents axonal microtubule reorganization towards the unique parallel plus-end out microtubule bundles in growing axons. We propose that centrosomes mediate microtubule remodeling during axon specification in human iPSC-derived neurons, thereby setting the foundation for further axon development and function.
