Exon skipping in genes encoding lineage-defining myogenic transcription factors in rhabdomyosarcoma

ABSTRACT: Rhabdomyocarcoma (RMS) contains myoblast-like cells that fail in terminal differentiation. To explore the potential defects in differentiation, we studied mRNA splicing variants in genes encoding transcription factors critical for skeletal muscle differentiation with RNA-Seq data from RMS specimens and cell lines. We identified novel exon 2 skipping form of MYOD1 and MYF5. Further study on MYODΔEx2 protein showed that it failed to robustly induce muscle-specific genes but its ectopic expression conferred a selective advantage in cultured fibroblasts and an RMS xenograft. Therefore, alternative splicing can represent a mechanism to alter the function of these two transcription factors in RMS.

SNAIL is a key regulator of rhabdomyosarcoma progression and myogenic differentiation

Project description:Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a frequent non-epithelial tumor of soft tissue that originates from a myogenic differentiation defect. Expression of SNAIL transcription factor is elevated in the alveolar subtype of RMS, characterized by a low myogenic differentiation status and high aggressiveness. SNAIL affects RMS metastasis by reorganization of actin cytoskeleton, regulation of ezrin expression and chemotaxis to HGF and SDF-1. The differentiation of human RMS diminishes SNAIL level. SNAIL silencing completely abolishes the growth of human RMS xenotransplants. SNAIL inhibits myogenic differentiation of RMS by binding to the MYF5 promoter, suppressing its expression, displacing MYOD from canonical to alternative E-box sequences and regulating myomiRs expression. SNAIL silencing allows the re-expression of MYF5 and canonical MYOD binding, promoting RMS cell myogenic differentiation. These novel results open potential avenues for the development of innovative therapeutic strategies based on SNAIL silencing.

Role of Yes-Associated Protein 1 (YAP1) in rhabdomyosarcoma

Project description:Doxycycline-inducible YAP1 S127A-driven rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) tumors, control skeletal muscle and regressed tumors following YAP1 normalization by doxycycline withdrawal were compared to determine the YAP1-regulated gene expression profile relevant to RMS formation. To characterize the role of YAP1 in embryonal RMS at the molecular level and identify a gene signature for YAP1 activity readout, we compared the gene expression profiles of our YAP1-driven ERMS with control donor skeletal muscle (SKM) and doxycycline-withdrawn regressing tumors by microarray (doxycycline withdrawal for 3 or 6 days; OFF3 and OFF6, respectively). We next extracted a list of genes regulated by YAP1 in our YAP1-driven ERMS tumors (TUM) versus the 3 other conditions: skeletal muscle control (SKM), Doxycycline-withdrawn 3 days (OFF3) and 6 days (OFF6). The overlap between the 3 lists identified a subset of 633 common upregulated genes, named the YAP1-ERMS_UP signature, as well as 249 common downregulated genes, termed the YAP1-ERMS_DOWN signature. Proliferative pathways and transcriptional targets of E2F factors were highlighted in the YAP1-ERMS_UP genes, while muscle differentiation and trancriptional targets of myogenic factors Myod1 and Mef2 were highlighted in the YAP1-ERMS_DOWN genes. Tumor regression conditions (OFF3 days; OFF6 days) as well as control muscle (CTL) were compared with tumors at day 0 of doxycycline withdrawal (TUM). 3 samples for each conditions were used.

The Hippo tranducer YAP1 transforms activated satellite cells and is a potent effector of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma formation

Project description:The Hippo pathway effector YAP1 controls stem cell fate in epithelial tissues, but its role in stem cells of non-epithelial tissues, such as skeletal muscle, is poorly documented. Here we show that sustained YAP1 activity in mouse activated satellite cells in vivo induces rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) resembling human embryonal RMS (ERMS) with high penetrance and short latency. The transcriptional program of YAP1 in ERMS drives pro-proliferative pathways whilst decreasing MyoD1 and MEF2 pro-differentiation activity to globally maintain the myoblastic phenotype of ERMS. Normalization of YAP1 expression reduced tumor burden and allowed myogenic differentiation of YAP1-driven and RD ERMS xenografts in situ, thereby identifying YAP1 as a potent RMS-causing oncogene and potential target for differentiation therapy. A total of four samples were analyzed. Two ChIP-Seq datasets from RD human cells, containing reads connected to TEAD binding and IgG binding as control/background; two ChIP-Seq datasets from YAP-ERMS mouse cells, containing reads connected to TEAD binding and Input reads as control/background

Transcription profiling of human rhabdomyosarcoma cells expressing Myod and E-protein heterodimer and controls

Project description:Rhabdomyosarcomas (RMS) are characterized by expression of myogenic specification genes, such as MyoD and/or Myf5, as well as their bHLH partners for heterodimerization, the E-proteins. We have shown that expression of a forced heterodimer of MyoD with one of the E2A proteins, E12, leads to differentiation in a RMS cell culture model when exposed to low serum conditions. Experiment Overall Design: RD cells (a type of RMS) were retrovirally infected with either the MyoD~E heterodimer or an empty control vector, differentiated for 24 hours and then RNA collected.

Chromatin states and transcription factor binding in SIX1 deficient Rhabdomyosarcoma cells

Project description:Genetic and shRNA-mediated inhibition of SIX1 expression in RMS cells induces myogenic differentiation and impedes RMS tumor growth. To elucidate the mechanism by which SIX1 loss activates a differentiation program, we performed SIX1, MYOD1, and H3K27ac ChIPseq in two SIX1 knockdown SMS-CTR cell lines and one control SMS-CTR cell line to profile changes in transcriptional activity and myogenic transcription factor binding in fusion-negative Rhabdomyosarcoma.

The BAF complex blocks Myogenesis in rhabdomyosarcoma

Project description:Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a highly malignant pediatric cancer of skeletal muscle lineage. The aggressive alveolar subtype is commonly characterized by t(2;13) or t(1;13) translocations with the expression of PAX3- or PAX7-FOXO1 fusion transcription factors respectively and is known as fusion positive RMS (FP-RMS). FP-RMS tumors rely on the fusion gene to maintain their proliferative state while avoiding terminal differentiation program. Since disruptions of normal development are likely governed by epigenetic changes in these low-mutational-burden tumors, we investigated the contributions of chromatin regulatory complexes to RMS tumor maintenance. We demonstrate the essentiality of the mSWI/SNF ATPase BRG1 for FP-RMS proliferation and discover that RMS significantly overexpress SMARCA4 (encoding BRG1) compared to skeletal muscle. We define the mSWI/SNF subunit repertoire in FP-RMS and provide evidence for the assembly of multiple mSWI/SNF complexes including canonical BAF, PBAF and non-canonical (nc)BAF in FP-RMS. Proteomic studies suggest proximity between PAX3-FOXO1 and BAF complexes, which was further supported by genome-wide binding profiles revealing enhancer colocalization of BAF with FP-RMS core regulatory transcription factors. We report that mSWI/SNF complexes act as sensors of chromatin state, which are recruited to sites of de novo histone acetylation. Phenotypically, interference with mSWI/SNF complex function induces transcriptional activation of the skeletal muscle differentiation program associated with MYCN enhancer invasion at myogenic target genes. Finally, BRG1 targeting compounds reproduce the effects of genetic ablation. We conclude that inhibition of BRG1 overcomes the differentiation blockade of FP-RMS cells and may provide a therapeutic strategy for treating this lethal childhood tumor.

Cotranscriptional exon skipping in the genotoxic stress response

Project description:Pre-mRNA splicing is functionally coupled to transcription, and genotoxic stresses can enhance alternative exon inclusion by affecting elongating RNA polymerase II. We report here that various genotoxic stress inducers, including camptothecin, inhibit the interaction between EWS, an RNA polymerase II-associated factor, and YB-1, a spliceosome-associated factor. This results in the cotranscriptional skipping of several exons of the MDM2 gene encoding the main p53 ubiquitin-ligase. This reversible exon skipping participates in the timely regulation of MDM2 expression, and may contribute to the accumulation of p53 during stress exposure and its rapid shut off when stress is removed. Finally, a splicing-sensitive microarray identified numerous exons that are skipped in response to camptothecin and EWS/YB-1 depletion. These data demonstrate genotoxic stress-induced alteration of the communication between the transcriptional and splicing machineries, resulting in widespread exon skipping and playing a central role in the genotoxic stress response. 6 samples of MCF7 cells exposed to different treatments were analyzed: 3 x control_6 hours; 3 x camptothecin_6 hours.
