EWS-FLI1-regulated Core Transcriptional Regulatory Circuit promotes Ewing sarcoma progression

ABSTRACT: We identify and validate an Ewing sarcoma-specific CRC, which is under control of EWS-FLI1. Formed by KLF15, TCF4 and NKX2-2, this CRC apparatus coordinates the gene expression programs in Ewing sarcoma cells. These data advance the understanding of the mechanistic basis of transactional dysregulation in Ewing sarcoma, and provide potential novel therapeutic strategies against this malignancy.

Expression data from the inducible expression of EWS-FLI1 (EF) in embryoid bodies

Project description:Oncogenic transformation in Ewing sarcoma tumors is driven by the fusion oncogene EWS-FLI1. The inducible expression of EWS-FLI1 (EF) in embryoid bodies, or collections of differentiating stem cells, generates cells with properties of Ewing sarcoma tumors, including characteristics of transformation. These cell lines exhibit anchorage-independent growth, a lack of contact inhibition and a strong Ewing sarcoma gene expression signature. These cells also demonstrate a requirement for the persistent expression of EWS-FLI1 for cell survival and growth. We used microarrays to detail the effects of doxycycline-inducible expression of EWS-FLI1 on the gene expression signature of cells derived from differentiating stem cells, or embryoid bodies. Triplicate biological replicates were collected and analyzed.

USP1 expression driven by EWS-FLI1 transcription factor stabilizes Survivin and promotes Ewing sarcoma cell survival

Project description:Ewing sarcoma (EWS) is a malignant pediatric bone cancer. Most Ewing sarcomas are driven by EWS-FLI1 oncogenic transcription factor that plays roles in transcriptional regulation, DNA damage response, cell cycle checkpoint control, and alternative splicing. USP1, a deubiquitylase which regulates DNA damage and replication stress responses, is overexpressed at both the mRNA and protein levels in EWS cell lines compared to human mesenchymal stem cells, the EWS cell of origin. The functional significance of high USP1 expression in Ewing sarcoma is not known. Here, we identify USP1 as a transcriptional target of EWS-FLI1 and a key regulator of EWS cell survival. We show that EWS-FLI1 knockdown decreases USP1 mRNA and protein levels. ChIP and ChIP-seq analyses show EWS-FLI1 occupancy on the USP1 promoter. Importantly, USP1 knockdown or inhibition arrests EWS cell growth and induces cell death by apoptosis. We observe destabilization of Survivin (also known as BIRC5 or IAP4) and activation of caspases-3 and -7 following USP1 knockdown or inhibition in the absence of external DNA damage stimuli. Notably, EWS cells display hypersensitivity to combinatorial treatment of doxorubicin or etoposide, EWS standard of care drugs, and USP1 inhibitor compared to single agents alone. Together, our study demonstrates that USP1 is regulated by EWS-FLI1, the USP1-Survivin axis promotes EWS cell survival, and USP1 inhibition sensitizes EWS cells to standard of care chemotherapy.

EWS-FLI1 and HOXD13 control tumor cell plasticity in Ewing sarcoma [RNA-seq]

Project description:Posterior homeobox D genes, in particular HOXD13, are over-expressed by Ewing sarcoma, a tumor driven by the oncogenic fusion protein EWS-FLI1. Here, we have found that EWS-FLI1 maintains HOXD13 expression through a GGAA microsatellite enhancer in the developmental posterior HOXD regulatory domain. Activation of this enhancer is EWS-FLI1 dependent and epigenomic silencing of this region leads to loss of HOXD13 expression in Ewing sarcoma cells, but not in unrelated cells. To determine the function of HOXD13 activation in Ewing sarcoma we performed nascent RNA sequencing or RNA sequencing upon HOXD13 knockdown.

Identification of genes regulated by knockdown of EWS-FLI1 in Ewing sarcoma cells.

Project description:EWS-FLI1 is the driver oncogene in >85% of Ewing sarcoma tumors. We used siRNA to knock down EWS-FLI1 for 48h hours in two Ewing sarcoma cell lines (EW8, TC71) to identify downstream genes and pathways affected by loss of EWS-FLI1 activity. RNAseq analysis was performed after 48 hours of treatment with a nontargeting siControl or siEWS-FLI1.

Genome-wide maps of EWS-FLI1 binding sites and histone modification in murine Ewing sarcoma cells

Project description:We identified global DNA binding properties of EWS-FLI1 in mouse Ewing sarcoma. GGAA microsatellites were found as binding sites of EWS-FLI1 but with less frequency than that in human Ewing sarcoma, and genomic distribution is not conserved between human and mouse.

SNP chip data of EWS

Project description:Ewing sarcoma is one of the solid tumor that developed in children. We performed SNP-chip analysis against 27 specimens of Ewing sarcoma using Affymetrix GeneChip and CNAG/AsCNAR software. Our study revealed the detailed profile of copy number alterations in Ewing sarcoma. Keywords: SNP-chip To identify oncogenic lesions in Ewing sarcoma, we performed a genome-wide analysis of Ewing sarcoma samples using high-density SNP arrays (Affymetrix GeneChip).

Fusion protein EWS-FLI1 is incorporated into a protein granule in cells

Project description:Ewing sarcoma is driven by fusion proteins containing a low complexity (LC) domain that is intrinsically disordered and a powerful transcriptional regulator. The most common fusion protein found in Ewing sarcoma, EWS-FLI1, takes its LC domain from the RNA-binding protein EWSR1 (Ewing Sarcoma RNA-binding protein 1) and a DNA-binding domain from the transcription factor FLI1 (Friend Leukemia Virus Integration 1). The LC domain in EWS-FLI1 can bind RNA polymerase II (RNA Pol II) and can self-assemble through a process known as phase separation. The ability of EWSR1 and related RNA-binding proteins to assemble into ribonucleoprotein granules in cells has been intensely studied but the role of phase separation in EWS-FLI1 activity is less understood. We investigated the overlapping functions of EWSR1 and EWS-FLI1 in controlling gene expression and tumorigenic cell growth in Ewing sarcoma, and our results suggested that these proteins function closely together. We then studied the nature of interactions among EWS-FLI1, EWSR1, and RNA Pol II. We observed EWSR1 and RNA Pol II to be present in protein granules in cells. We then identified protein granules in cells associated with the fusion protein, EWS-FLI1. The tyrosine residues in the LC domain are required for the abilities of EWS-FLI1 to bind its partners, EWSR1 and RNA Pol II, and to incorporate into protein granules. These data suggest that interactions among EWS-FLI1, RNA Pol II, and EWSR1 in Ewing sarcoma can occur in the context of a molecular scaffold found within protein granules in the cell.
