Project description:To search for genes regulated by the transcription factor Forkhead box Protein P1 (FoxP1) in endothelial cells, we transfected human umbilical cord endothelial cells (HUVECs) with a combination of three siRNA oligonucleotides directed against human FoxP1 . Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were isolated from donated umbilical cords, pooled from two donors and cultivated up to passage 5. For transfection with FoxP1-siRNA cells were cultured to 70% confluence and transfected with a combination of three FoxP1-targeting siRNAs or an irrelevant control oligonucleotide (all from invitrogen) using Lipofectamin RNAiMax (Invitrogen) according to the manufacturers instructions. Total RNA was isolated 48h after transfection. Three individual samples per condition were analyzed.

Project description:Mutations in the gene encoding the transcription factor forkhead box P1 or FOXP1 occur in patients with neurodevelopmental disorders, including autism. However, the function of FOXP1 in the brain remains mostly unknown. Here, we identify the gene expression program regulated by FoxP1 in both human neural cells and mouse brain and demonstrate a conserved role for FOXP1 transcriptional regulation of autism and Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein (FMRP) mediated pathways. Coexpression networks support a role for Foxp1 in neuronal activity, and we show that Foxp1 is necessary for neuronal excitability. Using a Foxp1 mouse model, we observe defects in ultrasonic vocalizations. This behavioral phenotype is reflected at the genomic level as striatal Foxp1-regulated overlap with genes known to be important in rodent vocalizations. These data support an integral role for FOXP1 in regulating signaling pathways vulnerable in developmental disorders and the specific regulation of pathways important for vocal communication.

We carried out RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) and ChIP-sequencing of human neural progenitors cells. We carried out RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) of mouse striatal tissue, mouse hippocampal tissue and mouse cortical tissue. For the RNA-seq, four indipendent replicates were used for the neural progenitor cells and mouse tissues. For the Chip-seq, a single neural progenitor cell line was used.

Project description:Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers in the world, which accounts for about 27% of all cancer deaths. However, the mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of lung cancer cells remain largely elusive. In this study, we examined the role of the Forkhead box protein P1 (FOXP1) in lung cancer development. Our Oncomine analysis shows that FOXP1 is downregulated in lung adenocarcinoma compared with normal lung tissue. Knockdown of FOXP1 promotes the proliferation growth and invasion of PC9 and A549 cells by regulating genes of chemokine signaling molecules, including CCR1, ADCY5, GNG7, VAV3, and PLCB1. Simultaneous knockdown of CCR1 and FOXP1 attenuated FOXP1 knockdown-induced increase of lung cancer cell growth. Finally, knockdown of FOXP1 in PC9 cells promotes the tumorigenesis via CCR1 signaling in xenograft mouse model. Taken together, our data suggest that FOXP1 plays important roles in preventing lung adenocarcinoma development via suppressing chemokine signaling pathways. Novel strategies might be developed to prevent the development of lung adenocarcinoma by targeting FOXP1

Project description:Genetic perturbations of the transcription factor, Forkhead Box P1 (FOXP1), occur in patients with autism spectrum disorder who have an increased risk for comorbidity with intellectual disability. Recent work has begun to reveal an important role for Foxp1 in brain development, but the brain region-specific contribution of Foxp1 to autism and intellectual disability phenotypes has yet to be fully determined. Here, we characterize Foxp1 conditional knockout (Foxp1cKO) mice with loss of Foxp1 in the pyramidal neurons of the neocortex and the CA1/CA2 subfields of the hippocampus. Foxp1cKO mice exhibit behavioral phenotypes that are relevant to autism spectrum disorder, including hyperactivity, increased anxiety, and decreased sociability. In addition, Foxp1cKO mice have gross deficits in learning and memory tasks that are relevant to intellectual disability. Using a genome-wide approach, we identified genes differentially expressed in the hippocampus of Foxp1cKO mice that are associated with synaptic function and physiology that could represent molecular networks related to the observed behavioral deficits. Finally, we observed reduced maintenance of long-term potentiation in the CA1 subfield of these animals. Together, these data suggest that expression of Foxp1 in pyramidal neurons of the forebrain is important for regulating gene expression pathways that contribute to specific behaviors relevant to autism and intellectual disability. In particular, Foxp1 regulation of gene expression in the hippocampus appears to be crucial for normal CA1 physiology and spatial learning.

Project description:Skeletal muscle wasting is a devastating consequence of cancer that affects up to 80% of cancer patients and associates with reduced survival. Herein we identified the transcriptional repressor protein, Forkhead box P1 (FoxP1), as a downstream target gene of FoxO1 whose skeletal muscle expression is elevated in multiple models of cancer cachexia and in patients with cancer who exhibit cachexia. Through generation of inducible skeletal muscle-specific FoxP1 over-expressing (FoxP1iSkmTg/Tg) mice, we demonstrate that FoxP1 upregulation is sufficient to induce features of cachexia, including body and skeletal muscle wasting characterized by reduced muscle fiber cross-sectional area of type IIX/B muscle fibers. Muscles from FoxP1iSkmTg/Tg mice also showed significant muscle damage and myopathy characterized by the accumulation of p62 and cellular material-filled vesicles, the presence of centrally nucleated myofibers, and were significantly weaker than controls. In the context of cancer cachexia, blocking FoxP1 upregulation prevented the cancer-induced repression of target genes critical to muscle structural integrity and repair, including Myocyte enhancer factor 2c (Mef2c), improved muscle ultrastructure and significantly attenuated muscle fiber atrophy. We further show that the muscle wasting phenotype induced by FoxP1 required the activity of histone deacetylase (HDAC) proteins, which are well-established to cooperate with FoxP1 to mediate gene repression, and which were necessary for FoxP1-dependent repression of Mef2c. In summary, we identify FoxP1 as a negative transcriptional regulator of skeletal muscle mass and function, whose up-regulation mediates cancer-induced muscle wasting. We used microarrays to investigate the genome-wide transcriptional networks regulated by the FoxO1 and FoxP1 transcription factors in skeletal muscle of tumor-bearing mice.

Project description:Long-lived quiescent mammary stem cells (MaSCs) are presumed to coordinate the dramatic expansion of ductal epithelium that occurs through the different phases of postnatal development, but little is known about the molecular regulators that underpin the activation of MaSCs. Here we show that ablation of the transcription factor Foxp1 in the mammary gland profoundly impairs ductal morphogenesis, resulting in a rudimentary tree throughout adult life. Foxp1-deficient glands were highly enriched for quiescent Tspan8hi MaSCs, which failed to become activated, even in competitive transplantation assays, and therefore harbor a cell-intrinsic defect. Luminal cells aberrantly expressed basal genes, suggesting that Foxp1 may also contribute to cell-fate decisions. Notably, Foxp1 was uncovered as a direct repressor of the Tspan8 gene in basal cells and deletion of Tspan8 could rescue the profound defects in ductal morphogenesis elicited by Foxp1 loss. Thus, a single transcriptional regulator, Foxp1, can control the exit of MaSCs from dormancy to orchestrate differentiation and development.

Project description:Expression of the forkhead transcription factor FOXP1 is essential for early B cell development, whereas downregulation of FOXP1 at the germinal center (GC) stage is required for GC B cell function. Aberrantly high FOXP1 expression is frequently observed in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma, being associated with poor prognosis. Here, by gene expression microarray [GSE51382] and quantitative RT-PCR analysis upon ectopic overexpression of FOXP1 in primary human memory B cells (MBCs) and B-cell lines, combined with chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing (ChIP-seq), we established that FOXP1 directly represses expression of PRDM1, IRF4, and XBP1, transcriptional master regulators of plasma cell (PC) differentiation. In accordance, FOXP1 is prominently expressed in primary human naive and MBCs but expression strongly decreases during plasma PC differentiation. Moreover, as compared to IgM+ MBCs, IgG+ MBCs combine lower expression of FOXP1 with an enhanced intrinsic PC differentiation propensity, and constitutive (over)expression of FOXP1 in B cell lines and primary human MBCs represses their ability to differentiate into PCs. Taken together, our data indicate that proper control of FOXP1 expression plays a critical role in PC differentiation, whereas aberrant overexpression of FOXP1 might contribute to lymphomagenesis by blocking terminal B cell differentiation.
