Dependency of NELF-E-SLUG-KAT2B epigenetic axis in breast cancer carcinogenesis

ABSTRACT: Cancer cells undergo transcriptional reprogramming to drive tumorigenesis and caner progression. Here, we identified the transcriptional complex, NELF (Negative elongation factor), as an important regulator of this process. Using cancer cell lines and patient-derived tumor organoids, we demonstrated that loss of NELF inhibits breast cancer. Specifically, we found that epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and stemness-associated genes are downregulated in NELF-depleted breast cancer cells. Afterwards, we pinpointed that SLUG, a key EMT transcription factor, was a top hit of NELF interactome during EMT progression. Furthermore, ChIP-seq analysis revealed that loss of NELF led to impaired SLUG binding on chromatin. Through integrative transcriptomic and genomic analyses, we identified the histone acetyltransferase, KAT2B, as a key functional target of NELF-E-SLUG. Genetic and pharmacological inactivation of KAT2B ameliorate expression of critical EMT marker genes, phenocopying NELF ablation. Elevated NELF-E and KAT2B expressions are associated with poorer prognosis in breast cancer patients, highlighting the clinical relevance of our findings. Taken together, we uncovered a crucial role of the NELF-E-KAT2B epigenetic axis in breast cancer carcinogenesis.

Dependency of NELF-E-KAT2B epigenetic axis in breast cancer carcinogenesis

Project description:Cancer cells undergo transcriptional reprogramming to drive tumor progression and metastasis. Here, we identified the transcriptional complex, NELF (Negative elongation factor), as an important regulator of this process. Using cancer cell lines and patient-derived tumor organoids, we demonstrated that loss of NELF inhibits breast cancer tumorigenesis and metastasis. Specifically, we found that epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and stemness-associated genes are downregulated in NELF-depleted breast cancer cells. Quantitative Multiplexed Rapid Immunoprecipitation Mass spectrometry of Endogenous proteins (qPLEX-RIME) of NELF-E, a key subunit of NELF, reveals significant rewiring of NELF-E-associated chromatin partners as a function of EMT, and further illuminates a co-option of NELF-E with the key EMT transcription factor SLUG. Accordingly, loss of NELF-E led to impaired SLUG binding on chromatin. Through integrative transcriptomic and genomic analyses, we identified the histone acetyltransferase, KAT2B, as a key functional target of NELF-E-SLUG. Genetic and pharmacological inactivation of KAT2B ameliorate expression of critical EMT marker genes, phenocopying NELF ablation. Elevated NELF-E and KAT2B expressions are associated with poorer prognosis in breast cancer patients, highlighting the clinical relevance of our findings. Importantly, KAT2B knockout mice are viable, raising the exciting prospect of targeting this dependency therapeutically. Taken together, we uncovered a crucial role of the NELF-E-KAT2B epigenetic axis in breast cancer carcinogenesis.

Twist1 and Slug mediate H2A.X-regulated epithelial-mesenchymal transition in breast cells

Project description:The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is thought to be essential for cancer metastasis. While chromatin remodeling is involved in EMT, histone variants contribution in EMT remains poorly investigated. Recently, we showed that silencing or removal of the histone variant H2A.X induced mesenchymal-like characteristics, including activation of the EMT transcription factors, Slug and ZEB1, in human colon cancer cells. Here, we provide the evidence that H2A.X loss in human non-tumorigenic breast cell line MCF10A results in a robust EMT activation, as substantiated by a genome-wide expression analysis. Cells deficient for H2A.X exhibit enhanced migration and invasion, along with an activation of a set of mesenchymal genes and a concomitant repression of epithelial genes. In the breast model, the EMT-related transcription factor Twist1 cooperates with Slug to regulate EMT upon H2A.X loss. Of interest, H2A.X expression level tightly correlates with Twist1, and to a lesser extent with Slug in the panel of human breast cancer cell lines of the NCI-60 datasets. These new findings indicate that H2A.X is involved in the EMT processes in cells of different origins but pairing with transcription factors for EMT may be tissue specific.

Slug-induced miR-137 expression contributes to non-small cell lung cancer progression

Project description:The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) regulator Slug has multifaceted roles in controlling lung cancer progression, but the downstream targets and underlying mechanisms of Slug remain undetermined. The miRNAs downstream of Slug in lung cancer cells were examined using Illumina bead arrays and TaqMan low-density arrays.

The invasion promoter Slug is a critical cell cycle regulator

Project description:Background: The well-characterized function of the transcriptional repressor, Slug, is to promote EMT and tumor invasion/metastasis by down-regulating E-cadherin expression. In this study, we investigated the significance of Slug during the S phase. Method: Slug mRNA expression was isolated from thymidine-arrested CL1-5/AS2neo (control) and CL1-5/AS2neo-Slug-WT stable cells. The Agilent oligonucleotide microarray analysis was performed to identify Slug downstream genes. Results: Overexpression of Slug inhibited lung [3H]-thymidine incorporation and delayed S phase progression. By using Agilent microarray we have identified panel of genes altered by Slug overexpression. Slug can down-regulate target genes about cell cycle networks for DNA replication, DNA replication checkpoint and genomic stability, such as TOP1, ORC4, RFC3, and Rad17. Conclusions: the multifaceted role of Slug in cancer progression by controlling the epithelial-mesenchymal transition and genome stability.

Glutamine depletion regulates Slug to promote EMT and metastasis in pancreatic cancer [mouse]

Project description:Tumor cells rely on glutamine to fulfill their metabolic demands and sustain proliferation. The elevated consumption of glutamine can lead to intratumoral nutrient depletion, causing metabolic stress that has the potential to impact tumor progression. Here, we show that nutrient stress caused by glutamine deprivation leads to the induction of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells. Mechanistically, we demonstrate that glutamine deficiency regulates EMT through the upregulation of the EMT master regulator Slug, a process that is dependent on both MEK/ERK signaling and ATF4. We find that Slug is required in PDAC cells for glutamine deprivation-induced EMT, cell motility and nutrient stress survival. Importantly, we decipher that Slug is associated with nutrient stress in PDAC tumors and is required for metastasis. These results delineate a novel role for Slug in the nutrient stress response and provide insight into how nutrient depletion might influence PDAC progression.

Project description:Gene expression profiling to determine transcriptome changes following Snail or Slug expression in MCF-7 breast cancer cells Samples were isolated in three biological replicates for microarray analysis. Four MCF-7 breast cancer cell subsets: MCF-7(untreated), MCF-7 (with Control adenovirus), MCF-7 (with Snail adenovirus) and MCF-7 (with Slug adenovirus). RNA was purified on Day 0 for untreated, and on days 1,2 and 4 for the remaining three subsets for gene expression profiling on microarray.
