Project description:We developed a genetically engineered conditional compound heterozygous Dicer1 mouse strain that fully recapitulates the bi-allelic mutations of DICER1 in DICER1 syndrome-associated cancers. Embryonic activation of bi-allelic Dicer1 mutations, driven by the anti-Müllerian hormone receptor 2 (Amhr2)-driven Cre strain (Amhr2+/cre), drove cancer development from oviduct. Small RNA sequencing was performed to compare the microRNA expression profiles between tumor and normal oviduct.

Project description:Multiple studies suggest Dicer1 as a haploinsufficient tumor suppressor gene: while the loss of one allele promotes tumorigenesis, the complete loss of Dicer1 prevents tumor formation. To study the impact of Dicer1 partial or total loss in papillary thyroid carcinoma cells in vitro, we generated stable Dicer1 (+/-) cell lines by CRISPR-Cas9 from TPC1 cell line. No Dicer1 (-/-) cell lines could be generated. Therefore, siRNA against Dicer1 was transfected into Dicer1 (+/-) cell lines to further decrease its expression. RNA sequencing and transcriptomic analysis revealed alterations in proliferation, cell cycle and cell locomotion. BrdU staining revealed a slow-down of the cell cycle, with lower percentages of cells in S-phase and higher percentages of cells in G0-G1-phase. Furthermore, transwell invasion and migration assays showed a decrease of invasive and migrating cells following transfection of Dicer1 siRNA. These results were confirmed in two supplementary thyroid cell lines, BCPAP and H-Tori3. Additionally, to achieve high protein levels, we performed Dicer1 plasmid transfection and we observed reduced proliferation and invasion as well as increased apoptosis. Globally, our results allow us to better understand the function of Dicer1 in thyroid cancer tumorigenesis and suggest Dicer1 as an attractive target for novel therapeutic strategies.

Project description:DICER1 plays a critical role in microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis. Recurrent somatic “hotspot” mutations at four mental binding sites within the RNase IIIb domain of DICER1, were identified in ovarian sex cord-stromal tumors and have since been described in other pediatric tumors. In this study, we identified and characterized DICER1 hotspot mutations in endometrial cancers derived from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and our local tumor bank. DICER1 hotspot mutations are found in ~2% of endometrial tumors. Using Illumina and Sanger targeted resequencing we observed biallelic DICER1 mutations in more than 50% of cases with hotspot mutations and identified an additional recurrent mutation G1809R in 2 cases. Through small RNA deep sequencing and real-time PCR, we demonstrated mutations that add a positively charged side chain to residue 1809 have similar detrimental effects on 5p miRNA production as mutations at metal binding sites. In one case G1809R was compound heterozygous with a germline S839F mutation, which contributes to loss of DICER1 expression by promoting protein degradation. As expected, 5p miRNAs are globally reduced in tumors and cell lines with hotspot mutations. Pathway analysis of gene expression profiles indicated that genes derepressed due to loss of 5p miRNAs are strongly associated with cell cycle related pathways. Using a Dicer null cell line model, we demonstrated that DICER1 hotspot mutants abolished the inhibitory effects of wildtype DICER1 on cell proliferation upon re-expression. Furthermore, targets of let-7 family miRNAs are enriched among the upregulated genes, suggesting loss of let-7 may be impacting downstream pathways.

Project description:Recurrent somatic hotspot mutations of DICER1 appear to be clustered around each of four critical metal binding residues in the RNase IIIB domain of DICER1. This domain is responsible for cleavage of the 3’ end of the 5p-miRNA strand of a pre-mRNA hairpin. To investigate the effects of these cancer-associated “hotspot” mutations we engineered mouse Dicer1-deficient ES cells to express wild-type and an allelic series of the mutant human DICER1 variants. Global miRNA and mRNA profiles from cells carrying the metal binding site mutations were compared to each other and wild-type human DICER1. The miRNA and mRNA profiles generated through the expression of the hotspot mutations were virtually identical, and the DICER1 hotspot mutation carrying cells were distinct from both wild-type and Dicer1-deficient cells. Further, miRNA profiles showed mutant DICER1 results in a dramatic loss in processing of mature 5p-miRNA strands but were still able to create 3p-strand miRNAs. Messenger-RNA profile changes were consistent with the loss of 5p-strand miRNAs and showed enriched expression for predicted targets of the lost 5p derived miRNAs. We therefore conclude that cancer-associated somatic hotspot mutations of DICER1, affecting any one of four metal binding residues in the RNase IIIB domain, are functionally equivalent with respect to miRNA-processing and are hypomorphic alleles, yielding a global loss in processing of mature 5p-strand miRNA. We further propose that this resulting 3p-strand bias in mature miRNA expression likely underpins the oncogenic potential of these hotspot mutations. A total of 28 Affymetrix Mouse Gene ST arrays were done for mRNA expression profiling of various DICER1 mutants (n=14), wildtype controls (n=6), vector only (n=3) and parental cell lines (n=5).

Project description:Co-chaperone Aha1 activates HSP90 ATPase to promote the folding of client proteins. However, the client proteins of Aha1 are largely unknown. By employing ascorbate peroxidase (APEX) based proximity labeling, we identified 32 proximity proteins of HSP90 that are modulated by genetic depletion of Aha1. Among them, Dicer1 is one of the top-ranked proteins, which were further confirmed by streptavidin pull-down followed by Western blot analysis, demonstrating the reliability of the approach. Flag pull-down result showed interactions between endogenous HSP90 and Dicer1 and Aha1. The Dicer1 level is regulated synergistically by Aha1 and HSP90. Maturation-dependent interaction results showed a preferential binding of Aha1 and HSP90 to nascently translated Dicer1. Reconstitution of Aha1-depleted cells with WT Aha1 restored Dicer1 level, while the HSP90-binding-defective E67K mutant exhibited partial restoration. Moreover, knockdown of Aha1 and inhibition of HSP90 can diminish the levels of mature miRNA, let-7b and mir-30a. Overall, our study uncovers, for the first time, Dicer1 and transporter proteins as clients of Aha1 and HSP90.

Project description:miRNAs regulate mRNA stability and translation through the action of the RNAi-induced silencing complex. In this study, we systematically identified endogenous miRNA target genes by using AGO2 immunoprecipitation (AGO2-IP) and microarray analyses in two breast cancer cell lines, MCF7 and MDA-MB-231, representing luminal and basal-like breast cancer, respectively. The expression levels of ~70% of the AGO2-IP mRNAs were increased by DROSHA or DICER1 knockdown. In addition, integrated analysis of miRNA expression profiles, mRNA-AGO2 interaction, and the 3'-UTR of mRNAs revealed that >60% of the AGO2-IP mRNAs were putative targets of the fifty most abundantly expressed miRNAs. To identify mRNAs responsive to miRNA synthesis inhibition, total RNA was prepared from control cells and cells that stably express small hairpin RNA against DICER1 or DROSHA. Expression array analysis was performed with duplicates for each cell type.
