Regulation of Hippo/YAP axis by CXCR7 in the tumorigenesis of gastric cancer

ABSTRACT: The Hippo pathway is crucial in organ size control and tumorigenesis. The dys-regulation of Hippo/YAP axis is vastly observed in gastric cancer, while the effective therapeutic targets for Hippo/YAP axis are still not clear. It is important and urgent to identify reliable drug targets and the underlying mechanisms, which could inhibit the activity of Hippo/YAP axis and gastric cancer progression. In our current study, we demonstrate the membrane receptor CXCR7 (C-X-C chemokine receptor 7) is an important modulator for Hippo/YAP axis. The activation of CXCR7 could stimulate gastric cancer cell progression through Hippo/YAP axis in vitro and in vivo, while pharmaceutical inhibition of CXCR7 via ACT-1004-1239 could block the tumorigenesis in gastric cancer. Molecular studies reveal that the activation of CXCR7 could dephosphorylate YAP, facilitate YAP nuclear accumulation and transcriptional activation in gastric cancer. CXCR7 functions via G-protein Gαq/11 and Rho GTPase to activate YAP activity. Interestingly, ChIP assay shows that YAP could bind to the promoter region of CXCR7 and facilitate its gene transcription, which indicates CXCR7 is both the upstream signaling and downstream target for Hippo/YAP axis in gastric cancer. In general, we identified a novel positive feedback loop between CXCR7 and Hippo/YAP axis, while blockade of CXCR7 could be a plausible strategy for gastric cancer.

DUB1 suppresses Hippo signaling via modulating TAZ protein in gastric cancer

Project description:The Hippo pathway functions as a tumor-suppressor pathway in human cancers, while the dys-function of Hippo pathway is frequently observed in malignancies. Although the YAP/TAZ activity is tightly controlled by the phosphorylation cascade of MST-LATS-YAP/TAZ axis, it is still unclear why YAP/TAZ protein is activated in human cancers, even Hippo pathway is still active. Besides phosphorylation, recent studies implicate that several post-translational modifications also play critical roles in modulating TAZ function, including ubiquitination. Here, by a DUB (Deubiquitinases) siRNA screening library, we discovered DUB1 as a critical modulator to facilitate gastric cancer stemness and progression, which deubiquitinated and activated TAZ protein. We also identified DUB1 was elevated in gastric cancer, which correlated with TAZ activation and poor survival. DUB1 associated with TAZ protein and deubiquitinated TAZ at several lysine sites, which subsequently stabilized and facilitated TAZ function. Our study revealed a novel deubiquitinase of Hippo/TAZ axis and one possible therapeutic target for Hippo-driven gastric cancer.

OTUB1 promotes gastric cancer proliferation through regulating Hippo signaling pathway

Project description:Gastric cancer is still one of the most common cancer types and third leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. Recent studies have showed that the Hippo signaling pathway plays a critical role in progression of gastric cancer. It is of great importance to demonstrate the regulation of Hippo signaling pathway and the degradation of YAP protein in gastric cancer. In this study, we found that OTUB1 is a critical factor to facilitate gastric cancer cell stemness and progression, which deubiquitinated and stabilized YAP protein.

JOSD1 facilitates colorectal cancer progression via stabilizing YAP

Project description:Colorectal cancer is one of the most lethal human malignancies in the world. Although great efforts are put in developing novel therapeutic targets, the effective targeting drugs are still limited. Recent studies reveal the abnormality of Hippo/YAP axis play critical role in the oncogenic process of Colorectal cancer. It is of great importance to demonstrate the regulation of Hippo signaling activity and YAP protein turnover in Colorectal cancer. Besides, the phosphorylation cascade on YAP function, which has been thoroughly investigated, the ubiquitination of YAP is also important in Hippo signaling status. Here, We utilized the DUB (Deubiquitinase) siRNA library to identify critical DUB for Hippo signaling. We discovered JOSD1 as a critical factor to facilitate Colorectal cancer cell stemness and progression, which deubiquitinated and stabilized YAP protein. The clinical data analysis implicated JOSD1 was correlated with YAP activity and poor survival. Molecular studies demonstrated that JOSD1 associated with the YAP protein and enhanced YAP protein stability by blocking the K48-linked polyubiquitination of YAP. Our study revealed a novel deubiquitinase of Hippo/YAP axis and one possible therapeutic target for YAP-driven Colorectal cancer

Ligand-independent CXCR7 Activation of MAPK Signaling leads to Prostate Cancer Enzalutamide Resistance

Project description:The standard of care for patients with advanced form of prostate cancer, castration-resistant, now includes enzalutamide, a second generation antiandrogen. However, most of the treated patients will develop resistance to enzalutamide based therapy in around a year, succumbing to lethal disease. Investigating the transcriptome of enzalutamide-resistant prostate cancer cell lines, we identified CXCR7 as one of the most upregulated genes suggesting its role in advanced prostate cancer. CXCR7, known as an atypical G-coupled receptor, is engaged in many physiological and pathological processes. Here we show that in prostate cancer CXCR7 is tightly regulated by androgen receptor (AR), which directly binds to CXCR7 gene promoter and enhancer and represses its transcription. In turn, CXCR7 in prostate cancer reduces enzalutamide toxicity and promotes cell survival and invasiveness. We identified that CXCR7 forms an integral complex with ARRB2 and activates ERK1/2, eliciting pro-survival MAPK pathway. Enzalutamide treatment combined with MAPKK specific inhibitor, trametinib, reversed enzalutamide resistance in prostate cancer in vitro and in vivo. Taken together our findings highlight the critical role of CXCR7 in enzalutamide-resistant prostate cancer and open an avenue for developing novel anti-CXCR7 therapies to improve survival in patients with advanced prostate cancer.

Global microRNA expression analysis in mouse skin normal tissues and skin tumors induced by constitutive active YAP mutant.

Project description:Global downregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) is commonly observed in human cancers and can have a causative role in tumorigenesis. The mechanisms responsible for this phenomenon remain poorly understood. Here we show that YAP, the downstream target of the tumor-suppressive Hippo signaling pathway regulates miRNA biogenesis in a cell density-dependent manner. At low cell density, nuclear YAP binds and sequesters p72 (DDX17), a regulatory component of the miRNA processing machinery. At high cell density, Hippo-mediated cytoplasmic retention of YAP facilitates p72 association with Microprocessor and binding to a specific sequence motif in pri-miRNAs. Inactivation of the Hippo pathway or expression of constitutively active YAP causes widespread miRNA suppression in cells and tumors and a corresponding post-transcriptional induction of MYC expression. Thus, the Hippo pathway links contact-inhibition regulation to miRNA biogenesis and may be responsible for the widespread miRNA repression observed in cancer. Two conditions (normal epidermal cells and oncogenic epidermal cells expressing YAP S127A mutant) were analyzed in duplicate.
