P53-P21-RB pathway promotes BRD4 degradation in liver cancer through decreasing USP1 transcription

ABSTRACT: Liver cancer claims over 800,000 human deaths each year. Liver cancer is notoriously refractory to conventional therapeutics. Further insight into the etiology carries promise for innovative diagnostics and therapeutics. Tumor progression is governed by interplay between tumor promoting genes and suppressor genes. BRD4, an acetyl-lysine binding protein, plays a critical role in development and human diseases. In many cancer types, BRD4 is overexpressed and promotes activation of a pro-tumor gene network. But the underlying mechanism for BRD4 overexpression remains elusive. As BRD4 has risen as a promising therapeutic target, to understand the mechanism regulating BRD4 protein level will shed insight into BRD4-targeting therapeutics. In this study, we find BRD4 protein level in liver cancer is significantly regulated by P53, the most frequently dysregulated tumor suppressor. We identify a strong negative correlation between protein levels of P53 and BRD4 in liver cancer. We then show P53 promotes BRD4 protein degradation. Mechanistically, P53 represses the transcription of USP1, a deubiquitinase, through P21-RB. We show USP1 is a deubiquitinase of BRD4, which increases its stability. We show the pro-tumor role of USP1 is partially mediated by BRD4 and the USP1-BRD4 axis upholds expression of a group of cancer-related genes. In summary, we identify a functional P53-P21-RB-USP1-BRD4 axis in liver cancer.

Genomic profiles of mouse liver tissue harboring deletion of RB and/or p53, untreated or post-hepatocarcinogen treatment [CGH data]

Project description:The retinoblastoma (RB) and p53 tumor suppressors are critical regulators of the cell cycle with profound impact on both normal cell biology and disease etiology. In the context of human cancers, compound inactivation of RB and p53 is a frequent occurrence; however, the cooperation of these tumor suppressors in driving tumorigenesis has proven to be intricate and dependent on both the tissue and type of cancer. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a highly complex disease characterized by numerous molecular abnormalities (e.g. p53, RB, TGFβ) and chromosomal aberrations associated with environmental factors (e.g. Hepatitis B/C Virus, Aflatoxin B1). Despite extensive research, how each of these facets of disease development cooperates in promoting tumorigenesis is ultimately unknown. In the current study, we present a mouse model of liver tumorigenesis, in which the impact of RB and p53 loss is modified by the tissue environment. While loss of RB and p53 promotes deregulation of transcriptional programs associated with advanced disease, these changes are not sufficient to drive spontaneous tumorigenesis in the liver. However, in response to carcinogen-induced damage, distinct and cooperative roles of RB and p53 are revealed, which critically impact cell cycle control, checkpoint response, genome stability, and ultimately tumor development. Mice that are transgenic for Cre recombinase under the albumin promoter and harboring loxP sites within the Rb and/or p53 genes. For gene expression microarray analysis, mice were aged to 14 days, and treated for 24 hours with diethylnitrosamine (DEN) or saline as a control. For CGH analysis, mice were aged to 6 months post-DEN treatment. Liver tissue was obtained from dissected tumors and compared to normal liver tissue of 6-month old, saline-treated littermates. CGH analysis includes 5 individual tumor samples and 2 control samples (each consisting of a pool of 3 normal mouse liver DNA).

Tumor Microenvironment-induced BRD4 Activation Results in Chromatin Remodeling and Therapy Resistance in Colorectal Cancer [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Tumor microenvironment promotes tumorigenesis, but its role in modulating tumor chromatin activity is poorly understood. Here, we show that inflammatory cytokines interleukin-6 and -8 in the tumor microenvironment induces JAK2-mediated phosphorylation of bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4), which results in interaction with UCHL3 deubiquitinase, leading to increased BRD4 protein stabilization in colorectal cancer. JAK2-phosphorylated BRD4 shows enhanced activity binding to chromatin but reduced binding to BRD4 inhibitors, leading to treatment resistance. Moreover, BRD4 phosphorylation promotes interaction with STAT3 to induce chromatin remodeling through concurrent binding to enhancers and super-enhancers, supporting a tumor-promoting transcriptional program. Thus, the inflammatory tumor microenvironment provides a powerful mechanism for tumor chromatin remodeling and oncogenic transcription, which suggests a unrecognized new strategy to enhance BRD4 inhibitor response.

Rb deletion in mammary stem/progenitor epithelium induces tumors with features of luminal-B or basal-like breast cancer

Project description:The retinoblastoma tumor suppressor, Rb, is implicated in luminal-B and basal-like breast carcinomas, yet its effect on mammary gland development and causal role in breast cancer subtypes remain undefined. Here we show that conditional deletion of Rb in mouse mammary epithelium led to expansion of the stem/progenitor cells and to focal acinar hyperplasia with squamous metaplasia. These uniform lesions progressed into histologically diverse, transplantable mammary adenocarcinomas and adenosquamous carcinomas with features of luminal-B or basal-like carcinomas. A subset of basal-like but none of the luminal-B tumors expressed mutant p53. These results demonstrate a causative role for Rb in the etiology of breast cancer subtypes and implicate p53 status as a determinant of tumor phenotype after Rb loss.

Transcription profiling of DeltaNp73 alpha expressing C2C12 myoblasts examined 6 and 24 hours after shifting the cells to a differentiation medium to study the functions of the individual members of P53 family.

Project description:The p53 family comprises the tumor suppressor p53 and the structural homologs p63 and p73. How the three family members cooperate in tumor suppression remains unclear. Here, we report different but complementary functions of the individual members for regulating retinoblastoma protein (RB) function during myogenic differentiation. Whereas p53 transactivates the retinoblastoma gene, p63 and p73 induce the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p57 to maintain RB in an active, hypophosphorylated state. DeltaNp73 inhibits these functions of the p53 family in differentiation control, prevents myogenic differentiation, and enables cooperating oncogenes to transform myoblasts to tumorigenicity. DeltaNp73 is frequently overexpressed in rhabdomyosarcoma and essential for tumor progression in vivo. These findings establish differentiation control as a key tumor suppressor activity of the p53 family. Experiment Overall Design: DeltaNp73 alpha expressing C2C12 myoblasts examined 6 and 24 hours after shifting the cells to a differentiation medium.
