UBE2C expression is elevated in hepatoblastoma and correlates with inferior patient survival

ABSTRACT: To gain insight into the pathobiology of hepatoblastoma (HB), RNA sequence analysis and protein-protein interaction analysis of previously established and sequenced HB samples were conducted. Ubiquitination was identified as a key pathway dysregulated in HB and UBE2C, encoding an E2 ubiquitin ligase often overexpressed in cancer cells, was markedly upregulated in 5 of the 6 HB cell lines. The silencing of UBE2C in HUH6 HB cell model resulted in decreased cell viability and migration. RNA sequencing analysis showed alterations in cell cycle regulation after UBE2C knockdown.

EZH2 is a key component of Hepatoblastoma tumor cell growth

Project description:To understand molecular mechanisms driving HB pathogenesis, we hypothesize that pathologic activation of Enhancer of Zeste Homolog 2 contributes to hepatoblastoma propagation. Here we demonstrate that EZH2 promotes proliferation in HB cell lines through interaction with β-catenin, the most frequently mutated gene in HB. We demonstrate that canonical and noncanonical EZH2 signaling occur in HB tumor cells, likely driven by aberrant EZH2 expression. We use comparison groups of liver cancer, hepatocytes, and dermal fibroblasts to establish the hepatoblastoma identity of our patient-derived cell lines.

A Developmentally Prometastatic Niche in Neonatal Liver to Hepatoblastoma mediated by Cxcl1/Cxcr2 Axis

Project description:Hepatoblastoma (HB) is the most common pediatric liver cancer. Its exclusive occurrence in very young children leads us to investigating whether the immature liver provides a protumorigenic niche to HB development. We employed the single-cell RNA-sequencing (sc-RNAseq) to comprehensively profile the HB tumors and their microenvironment in the orthotopic transplantation models established in postnatal day 5 and 60. We demonstrated that the neonatal liver provides a prometastatic niche to HB development via Cxcl1/Cxcr2 axis-mediated HB-aHSC interaction.

Impact of SLC-0111 (U-104) on HUH6 hepatoblastoma cell transcriptome in normoxic and hypoxic conditions

Project description:Carbonic anhydrase 9 (CAIX) is a transmembrane metalloenzyme whose main function is to maintain the acid-base balance of the cell and hypoxic condition induces its expression. Solid tumors often exhibit regions with low oxygen content in areas where the blood supply is insufficient. CAIX is overexpressed in multiple solid tumors, including hepatoblastoma, the most frequent childhood liver malignancy. SLC-0111 is a commercially available CAIX inhibitor that is currently passed Phase I clinical trial on solid tumors. In this study we assessed the impact of SLC-0111 on transcriptomic changes of HUH6 hepatoblastoma cell line cells in both normoxic and hypoxic condition.

Genomic Copy-Number Variations in Hepatoblastoma Patients Revealed by Array Comparative Genomic Hybridization

Project description:Purpose: Hepatoblastoma (HB) is a malignant pediatric hepatic progenitor cell tumor with uncertain etiology. To discover genomic biomarkers associated with this malignancy, we conduct the study. Experimental Design: A panel of ten cases and two pairs of identical twins for HB were screened using high-resolution array-based comparative genomic hybridization (array CGH) technology. Genomic DNA from the peripheral blood was subject to our laboratory investigation. Results: In total of the twelve HB cases tested, we identified four high recurrent copy-number variations (CNVs) including gain on 1p13.3 (25%) and losses on 5p15.33 (33.3%), 16q12.2 (33.3%), and 19q13.42 (25%). Additionally, the twin study indicated that microdeletions of 3p12.1 and 12p13.2 correlated with hepatoblastoma occurrence. Among these candidate CNVs, 5p15.33 and 16q12.2 not only the most prevalent genomic deletion in this survey, but also encompassed hepatic expressed gene, Zinc finger, DHHC-type containing 11B (ZDHHC11B) and Zinc finger, DHHC-type containing 11 (ZDHHC11) map to 5p15.33; carboxylesterase 4-like (CES4) map to 16q12.2. Furthermore, the microdeletion of 5p15.33 was associated with high mortality rate (3/3; P = 0.018) in patients with native liver. Currently, the only surviving patient with 5p15.33 microdeletion is who has receipt liver transplantation. Conclusions: These results suggested that losses on 3p12.1, 5p15.33, 12p13.2 and 16q12.2 may be pathogenic for HB. In addition, HB patient who affected by 5p15.33 microdeletion seems to carry high risk of mortality unless undergo liver transplantation. Thus, 5p15.33 microdeletion was suggested as potential prognostic biomarker for poor survival in hepatoblastoma.

GREB1, a novel target of Wnt signaling, promotes development of hepatoblastoma by suppressing TGFβ signaling

Project description:The β-catenin mutation is frequently observed in hepatoblastoma (HB), but the underlying mechanism by which Wnt/β-catenin signaling induces HB tumor formation is unknown. We found that expression of growth regulation by estrogen in breast cancer 1 (GREB1) depends on Wnt/β-catenin signaling in HB patients. GREB1 was localized to the nucleus where it bound Smad2/3 in a competitive manner with p300 and inhibited TGFβ signaling, thereby promoting HepG2 HB cell proliferation. Forced expression of β-catenin, YAP, and c-Met induced HB-like mouse liver tumor (BYM mice), with an increase in GREB1 expression and HB markers. Depletion of GREB1 strongly suppressed marker gene expression and HB-like liver tumorigenesis, and instead enhanced TGFβ signaling in BYM mice. Furthermore, antisense oligonucleotides for GREB1 suppressed the formation of HepG2 cell-induced tumors and HB-like tumors in vivo. We propose that GREB1 is a novel target molecule of Wnt/β-catenin signaling and required for HB progression.

<i>UBE2C</i> expression is elevated in hepatoblastoma and correlates with inferior patient survival.

Project description:Hepatoblastoma (HB) is the most common malignant liver tumor among children. To gain insight into the pathobiology of HB, we performed RNA sequence analysis on 5 patient-derived xenograft lines (HB-243, HB-279, HB-282, HB-284, HB-295) and 1 immortalized cell line (HUH6). Using cultured hepatocytes as a control, we found 2,868 genes that were differentially expressed in all of the HB lines on mRNA level. The most upregulated genes were ODAM, TRIM71, and IGDCC3, and the most downregulated were SAA1, SAA2, and NNMT. Protein-protein interaction analysis identified ubiquitination as a key pathway dysregulated in HB. UBE2C, encoding an E2 ubiquitin ligase often overexpressed in cancer cells, was markedly upregulated in 5 of the 6 HB cell lines. Validation studies confirmed UBE2C immunostaining in 20 of 25 HB tumor specimens versus 1 of 6 normal liver samples. The silencing of UBE2C in two HB cell models resulted in decreased cell viability. RNA sequencing analysis showed alterations in cell cycle regulation after UBE2C knockdown. UBE2C expression in HB correlated with inferior patient survival. We conclude that UBE2C may hold prognostic utility in HB and that the ubiquitin pathway is a potential therapeutic target in this tumor.

Modeling Hepatoblastoma: Identification of Distinct Tumor Cell Populations and Key Genetic Mechanisms through Single Cell Sequencing (bulk)

Project description:Hepatoblastoma (HB) is the most common primary liver malignancy of childhood. However, molecular investigations of the disease are limited and effective treatment options are lacking. The use of patient derived xenografts (PDX) to study biology and treatment strategies of HB has proven to be a useful tool. There is currently a knowledge gap in the investigation of key driver cells of HB in PDX models. Key driving pathways of HB tumor including WNT, AP-1, Hedgehog, Notch and MAPK pathways and genes such as GPC3, DLK1 and HMGA2 have been identified in primary HB tumor and PDX as integral players in HB tumor growth. Cell clusters have been defined with distinct roles in tumor development. Cell populations with initiating, angiogenic (endothelial), maintenance, and progression signatures have been identified in one HB patient tumor and corresponding PDX tumor. Critical pathways combined with identification of distinct cell populations within HB tumor will allow for investigation of novel treatment strategies in vitro and in vivo.
