Nucleoporin-93 overexpression overcomes trafficking bottlenecks in metastasis of breast cancer

ABSTRACT: The integrative computational analysis we developed has assigned NUP93 with important roles in progression of mammary cancer, which we confirmed in animals. Surprisingly, NUP93 emerges from these studies as a master driver of metastasis. This conclusion was supported by functional characterization of two groups of naturally occurring mutant alleles. Remarkably, mammary cells overexpressing NUP93 display over-activation of multiple growth factor pathways, including the WNT/beta-catenin pathway. This route has previously been associated with colorectal tumors, but recent network-based analysis linked it to breast cancer (Koval and Katanaev, 2018). We conclude that NUP93 integrates and enhances not only WNT but also additional growth factor signals. Thus, by seizing an essential step common to multiple signaling routes, NUP93 acquires robust oncogenic attributes. Beyond the identification of augmented nuclear transport as a new hallmark of cancer, our study exposes tumor vulnerabilities and offers not only a new target for intervention but also a pharmacological strategy tailored to the subset of NUP93 overexpressors.

Nucleoporin-mediated regulation of cell identity genes

Project description:The organization of the genome in the three-dimensional space of the nucleus is coupled with cell type-specific gene expression. However, how nuclear architecture influences transcription that governs cell identity remains unknown. Here, we show that Nuclear Pore Complex (NPC) components Nup93 and Nup153 bind super-enhancers (SE), regulatory structures that drive the expression of key genes that specify cell identity. We found that nucleoporin-associated SEs localize preferentially to the nuclear periphery, and absence of Nup153 and Nup93 results in dramatic transcriptional changes of SE-associated genes. Our results reveal a crucial role of NPC components in the regulation of cell type specifying genes and highlight nuclear architecture as a regulatory layer of genome functions in cell fate.

The role of NUP93 in breast cancer

Project description:NUP93 expression inversely correlates with the survival of triple negative breast cancer patients. However, the role of NUP93 in tumor propagation has not yet been fully clarified. In this project we combined high-resolution imaging, migration assays and genetic analyses to demonstrate that NUP93 modulates actin cytoskeleton remodeling, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and invasion of triple negative breast cancer cells through direct interaction with the genome.

Nup93 modulates spatiotemporal dynamics and function of the HOXA gene cluster during differentiation

Project description:The central role of nucleoporins is to transport RNA and proteins. In addtion, nucleoporins are also involved in gene regulation. Furthermore, nucleoporins - Nup93, Nup153, Nup98 and Nup210, directly associate with developmental genes and regulate developmental processes by direct association with developmental genes. Here, we identified genome wide binding profile of Nup93 - a core component of the nuclear pore complex in colorectal cancer cell line DLD-1 by ChIP-seq. Our ChIP-seq analysis revealed significant association of Nup93 with developmental genes and known enhancer marks such as H3K4me1 and H3K27Ac . We found that Nup93 shares binding sites with CTCF - the well known chromatin organizer, suggesting a functional overlap between Nup93 and CTCF in the organization and regulation of developmental gene expression such as the the HOXA gene cluster.

Host Factor Nucleoporin 93 Is Involved in the Nuclear Export of Influenza Virus RNA.

Project description:Influenza virus replication relies on the functions of host factors. In our previous study, we identified host factors involved in virus replication and began analyses of their roles in this process. In this study, we focused on Nucleoporin 93 (NUP93) and revealed its importance in influenza virus replication. NUP93 knockdown mediated by siRNAs reduced viral replication and decreased the efficiency of the early step of the viral life cycle. NUP93 did not appear to be important for virus binding, internalization, or the nuclear import of viral ribonucleoprotein (vRNP); however, in NUP93-depleted cells, viral RNA accumulated in the nucleus. These results suggest that NUP93 is involved in the nuclear export of viral RNA.

Transcriptome analysis of Scramble control and CDK14-sh MDA-MB-231 cells

Project description:Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway has become a key signaling pathway regulating mammary organogenesis and oncogenesis. However, the therapeutic methods by targeting Wnt pathway against breast cancer has been limited. To address this challenge, we investigated the function of cyclin-dependent kinase 14 (CDK14), a member of Wnt signaling pathway, in mammary development and breast cancer progression. We showed that CDK14 was expressed in the mammary basal layer and elevated in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). CDK14 knockdown reduces colony formation ability and regeneration capacity of mammary basal cells, and significantly inhibits murine MMTV-Wnt-1 basal-like mammary tumor progression. Excitingly, knockdown of CDK14 or pharmacological inhibition of CDK14 by FMF-04-159-2 significantly inhibited the progression and metastasis of human TNBC. Mechanistically, CDK14 inhibition inhibits mammary regeneration and TNBC progression by attenuating Wnt/β-catenin signaling. Together, we demonstrated that CDK14 regulates mammary regeneration and breast tumorigenesis, and is a promising therapeutic target for TNBC.
