IRF3 prevents colorectal tumorigenesis via inhibiting the nuclear translocation of β-catenin

ABSTRACT: Occurrence of Colorectal cancer（CRC）is relevant with gut microbiota. However, role of IRF3, a key signaling mediator in innate immune sensing, has been barely investigated in CRC. Here, we unexpectedly found that the IRF3 deficient mice are hyper-susceptible to the development of intestinal tumor in AOM/DSS and Apcmin/+ models. Genetic ablation of IRF3 profoundly promotes the proliferation of intestinal epithelial cells via aberrantly activating Wnt signaling. Mechanically, IRF3 in resting state robustly associates with the active β-catenin in the cytoplasm, thus preventing its nuclear translocation and cell proliferation, which can be relieved upon microbe-induced activation of IRF3. In accordance, the survival of CRC is clinically correlated with the expression level of IRF3. Therefore, our study identifies IRF3 as a negative regulator of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and a potential prognosis marker for Wnt-related tumorigenesis, and describes an intriguing link between gut microbiota and CRC via the IRF3-β-catenin axis.

Intestinal tumor expression data from Apcmin/+ mice gavaged by feces from healthy controls or colorectal cancer patients

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is closely related to gut dysbiosis. We investigated the effects of imbalanced gut microbiota on the progression of intestinal adenoma in Apcmin/+ mice model using fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT). Administration of feces from CRC patients increased tumor proliferation and decreased apoptosis in tumor cells. Abnormal expression of genes related to Wnt-protein binding and lipid metabolic process was observed.

Type I Interferons Control Proliferation and Function of Intestinal Epithelium

Project description:Wnt pathway-driven proliferation and renewal of the intestinal epithelium must be tightly controlled to prevent development of cancer and barrier dysfunction. Although type 1 interferons (IFN) produced in the gut under influence of microbiota are known for their anti-proliferative effects, the role of these cytokines in regulating intestinal epithelial renewal is largely unknown. Here we report a novel role for IFN in the context of intestinal knockout of casein kinase 1α (CK1α), which controls ubiquitination and degradation of both β-catenin and the IFNAR1 chain of the IFN receptor. Ablation of CK1α leads to activation of both β-catenin and IFN pathway and prevents unlimited proliferation of intestinal epithelial cells despite constitutive β-catenin activity. IFN signaling contributes to activation of the p53 pathway and appearance of apoptotic and senescence markers in the CK1α-deficient gut. Concurrent genetic ablation of CK1α and IFNAR1 leads to intestinal hyperplasia, robust attenuation of apoptosis, and rapid and lethal loss of the barrier function. These data indicate that IFN plays an important role in controlling proliferation and function of intestinal epithelium in the context of β-catenin activation.

Transcription profiling of human Ls174T CRC cells with induced of dnTCF-4

Project description:The transactivation of TCF target genes induced by Wnt pathway mutations constitutes the primary transforming event in colorectal cancer (CRC). We show that disruption of beta-catenin/TCF-4 activity in CRC cells induces a rapid G1 arrest and blocks a genetic program that is physiologically active in the proliferative compartment of colon crypts. Coincidently, an intestinal differentiation program is induced. The TCF-4 target gene c-MYC plays a central role in this switch by direct repression of the p21(CIP1/WAF1) promoter. Following disruption of beta-catenin/TCF-4 activity, the decreased expression of c-MYC releases p21(CIP1/WAF1) transcription, which in turn mediates G1 arrest and differentiation. Thus, the beta-catenin/TCF-4 complex constitutes the master switch that controls proliferation versus differentiation in healthy and malignant intestinal epithelial cells.

Gut-liver axis calibrates intestinal stem cell fitness via PEDF

Project description:The gut and liver have been recognized to mutually communicate through the biliary tract, portal vein and systemic circulation, but it remains unclear how this gut-liver axis regulates intestinal physiology. Through hepatectomy, transcriptomics and proteomics profiling, we identified pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF), as a liver-derived soluble Wnt inhibitor, that can restrain intestinal stem cells (ISC) hyperproliferation for gut homeostasis by competing with Wnt ligands and suppressing Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway. In turn, microbial danger signals from intestinal inflammation can be sensed by the liver to repress PEDF production via peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR alpha), liberating ISC proliferation to accelerate tissue repair in the gut. Further, treatment of mice with fenofibrate, a clinical agent of PPARalpha agonist for hypolipidemia enhances the susceptibility of colitis via PEDF activity. Therefore, we identified a distinct role of PEDF to calibrate ISC expansion for intestinal homeostasis via reciprocal interactions between the gut and liver.

USP7 is a tumor-specific WNT activator for APC-mutated colorectal cancer by mediating B-catenin deu

Project description:The tumor suppressor gene adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) is mutated in most colorectal cancers (CRC) resulting in constitutive Wnt activation. To understand the Wnt-activating mechanism of APC mutation, we applied CRISPR/Cas9 technology to engineer various APC-truncated isogenic lines. We find that the β-catenin inhibitory domain (CID) in APC represents the threshold for pathological levels of Wnt activation and tumor transformation. Mechanistically, CID-deleted APC truncation promotes β-catenin deubiquitination through reverse binding of β-TrCP and USP7 to the destruction complex. USP7 depletion in APC-mutated CRC inhibits Wnt activation by restoring β-catenin ubiquitination, drives differentiation and suppresses xenograft tumor growth. Finally, the Wnt-activating role of USP7 is specific to APC mutations, thus can be used as tumor-specific therapeutic target for most CRCs.

Type I Interferons Control Proliferation and Function of Intestinal Epithelium

Project description:Wnt pathway-driven proliferation and renewal of the intestinal epithelium must be tightly controlled to prevent development of cancer and barrier dysfunction. Although type 1 interferons (IFN) produced in the gut under influence of microbiota are known for their anti-proliferative effects, the role of these cytokines in regulating intestinal epithelial renewal is largely unknown. Here we report a novel role for IFN in the context of intestinal knockout of casein kinase 1Î± (CK1Î±), which controls ubiquitination and degradation of both Î²-catenin and the IFNAR1 chain of the IFN receptor. Ablation of CK1Î± leads to activation of both Î²-catenin and IFN pathway and prevents unlimited proliferation of intestinal epithelial cells despite constitutive Î²-catenin activity. IFN signaling contributes to activation of the p53 pathway and appearance of apoptotic and senescence markers in the CK1Î±-deficient gut. Concurrent genetic ablation of CK1Î± and IFNAR1 leads to intestinal hyperplasia, robust attenuation of apoptosis, and rapid and lethal loss of the barrier function. These data indicate that IFN plays an important role in controlling proliferation and function of intestinal epithelium in the context of Î²-catenin activation. Two conditions were examined, with 2 replicates for each condition, yielding 4 samples in total.

Discrete regulation of β-catenin-mediated transcription governs identity of intestinal epithelial stem cells [RNA-Seq]

Project description:The homeostasis of the gut epithelium relies upon continuous renewal and proliferation of crypt-resident intestinal epithelial stem cells (IESCs). Wnt/β-catenin signaling is required for IESC maintenance, however, it remains unclear how this pathway selectively governs the identity and proliferative decisions of IESCs. Here, we demonstrate that C-terminally-recruited transcriptional co-factors of β-catenin act as all-or-nothing regulators of Wnt-target gene expression. Blocking their interactions with β-catenin rapidly induces loss of IESCs and intestinal homeostasis. Conversely, N-terminally recruited co-factors fine-tune β-catenin’s transcriptional output to ensure proper self-renewal and proliferative behaviour of IESCs. Impairment of N-terminal interactions triggers transient hyperproliferation of IESCs, resulting in exhaustion of the self-renewing stem cell pool. IESC mis-differentiation, accompanied by intrinsic and extrinsic stress signalling results in a process resembling aberrant "villisation" of intestinal crypts. Our data suggest that IESC-specific Wnt/β-catenin output requires discrete regulation of transcription by transcriptional co-factors.
