The cell polarity protein MPP5/PALS1 controls the subcellular localiza-tion of the oncogenes YAP and TAZ in hepatocellular carcinoma

ABSTRACT: The oncogenes yes-associated protein (YAP) and transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ) are potent liver oncogenes. Because gene mutations cannot fully explain their nuclear enrichment, we aim to understand which mechanisms cause YAP/TAZ activation in liver cancer cells. The combination of proteomics and functional screening identified numerous apical cell polarity complex proteins interacting with both proteins. Co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) ex-periments confirmed that MPP5 (synonym: PALS1) physically interacts with YAP and TAZ. After removing different MPP5 protein domains, Co-IP analyses revealed that the PDZ domain plays a crucial role in YAP binding. The interaction between YAP and MPP5 in the cytoplasm of cancer cells was demonstrated by proximity ligation assays (PLAs). In human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissues, a reduction of apical MPP5 expression was observed, positively correlating with the nuclear accumulation of YAP and TAZ. Expression data analysis illustrated that MPP5 is in-versely associated with YAP/TAZ target gene signatures in human HCCs. Low MPP5 levels de-fine an HCC patient group with poor clinical outcome. In summary, MPP5 facilitates the nuclear exclusion of YAP and TAZ in HCC cells. This qualifies MPP5 as a tumor-suppressor gene and ex-plains how changes in cell polarity can foster tumorigenesis. .

SDHA/B reduction promotes hepatocellular carcinoma proliferation by removing cullin1 NEDDylation and stabilizing YAP/TAZ

Project description:Background & Aims: Succinate dehydrogenase enzyme (SDH) is frequently found to be diminished in Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patient samples, and SDH reduction is associated with elevated succinate level and poor prognosis in HCC patients. But the underlying mechanisms about how impaired SDH activity promotes HCC malignancy remain unclear. Approach & Results: In this study, we observed remarkable downregulations of SDH subunits A and B (SDHA/B) in chronic liver injury-induced murine HCC models and HCC patient samples. Subsequent RNA sequencing, hematoxylin & eosin (H&E) staining and immunohistochemistry (IHC) analyses of HCC samples revealed that Yes-associated protein (YAP) and transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ) were significantly upregulated in HCC, with their levels inversely correlating with that of SDHA/B. The protein stability of YAP/TAZ was greatly enhanced in SDHA/B-depleted HCC cells along with accumulation of succinate. Further mechanistic analyses demonstrated that impaired activity of SDHA/B resulted in succinate accumulation which facilitated the removal of NEDDylation on cullin1, therefore disrupted the E3 ubiquitin ligase SCFβ-TrCP complex, consequently led to YAP/TAZ stabilization and activation in HCC cells. The accelerated in vitro cell proliferation and in vivo tumor growth caused by SDHA/B reduction or succinate exposure were largely dependent on the aberrant activation of YAP/TAZ. Conclusions: Our study demonstrated that SDHA/B reduction promotes HCC proliferation by preventing the proteasomal degradation of YAP/TAZ through modulating cullin1 NEDDylation, thus addicts SDH-deficient HCC cells to YAP/TAZ pathway and renders these cells vulnerable to YAP/TAZ inhibition. Our findings warrant further investigation on the therapeutic effects of targeting YAP/TAZ in HCC patients displaying reduced SDHA/B or elevated succinate levels.

A MYC-driven change in mitochondrial dynamics limits stem cell properties of mammary epithelial cells (ChIP-seq)

Project description:In several developmental lineages, an increase in expression of the MYC proto-oncogene drives the transition from quiescent stem cells to transit amplifying cells. The mechanism by which MYC restricts self-renewal of adult stem cells is unknown. Here, we show that MYC activates a stereotypic transcriptional program of genes involved in protein translation and mitochondrial biogenesis in mammary epithelial cells and indirectly inhibits the YAP/TAZ co-activators that are essential for mammary stem cell self-renewal. We identify a phospholipase of the mitochondrial outer membrane, PLD6, as the mediator of MYC activity. PLD6 mediates a change in the mitochondrial fusion/fission balance that promotes nuclear export of YAP/TAZ in a LATS- and RHO-independent manner. Mouse models and human pathological data confirm that MYC suppresses YAP/TAZ activity in mammary tumors. PLD6 is also required for glutaminolysis, arguing that MYC-dependent changes in mitochondrial dynamics balance cellular energy metabolism with the self-renewal potential of adult stem cells. ChIP-Seq experiments for MYC-HA (HA-IP) performed in IMEC primary breast epithelial cells. Input-samples were sequenced as controlls.

YAP/TAZ and ATF4 collaboratively drive resistance to Sorafenib therapy in hepatocellular carcinoma by preventing ferroptosis

Project description:Understanding the mechanisms underlying evasive resistance in cancer is an unmet medical need to improve the efficacy of current therapies. In this study, a combination of shRNA-mediated synthetic lethality screening and transcriptomic analysis revealed the transcription factors YAP/TAZ as key drivers of Sorafenib resistance in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by repressing Sorafenib-induced ferroptosis. Mechanistically, in a TEAD-dependent manner YAP/TAZ induce the expression of SLC7A11, a key transporter maintaining intracellular glutathione homeostasis, thus enabling HCC cells to overcome Sorafenib-induced ferroptosis. At the same time, YAP/TAZ sustain the protein stability, nuclear localization and transcriptional activity of ATF4 which in turn cooperates to induce SLC7A11 expression. Our study uncovered a critical role of YAP/TAZ in the repression of ferroptosis and thus in the establishment of Sorafenib resistance in HCC, highlighting YAP/TAZ-based rewiring strategies as potential approaches to overcome HCC therapy resistance.

CRKL enhances YAP signaling through binding and JNK/JUN pathway activation in liver cancer

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) presents a major health issue due to its rising incidence and limited therapeutic options. The Hippo pathway transducers yes-associated protein (YAP) and WW-domain containing transcription regulator 1 (WWTR1/TAZ) are key regulators of liver tu-morigenesis promoting tumor formation and progression. Although first inhibitors are in clinical trials, targeting the upstream activation of YAP/TAZ could prove equally beneficial. To identify regulators of YAP/TAZ activity, we carried out a proximity labelling approach (BioID) coupled to mass-spectrometry. We verified CRKL as a new YAP-exclusive interaction partner, which is overexpressed in HCC patients correlating with YAP expression and activity as well as poor survival prognosis. In vitro experiments demonstrated CRKL dependent cell survival and loss of YAP binding induced through actin disruption. Moreover, we delineated an activation of the JNK/JUN pathway by CRKL, which promoted YAP transcription. Our data thus illustrated that CRKL not only promoted YAP activity through its binding but also through the induction of YAP transcription by JNK/JUN activation. This highlights the JNK/JUN pathway as a possible target to abrogate YAP expression in HCC patients.

Integrin signaling regulates YAP/TAZ to control skin homeostasis

Project description:The skin is a squamous epithelium that is continuously renewed by a population of basal layer stem/progenitor cells and can heal wounds. Here, we show that the transcription regulators YAP and TAZ localise to the nucleus in the basal layer of skin and are elevated upon wound healing. Skin-specific deletion of both YAP and TAZ in adult mice slows proliferation of basal layer cells, leads to hair loss and impairs regeneration after wounding. Contact with the basal extracellular matrix and consequent integrin-Src signalling is a key determinant of the nuclear localisation of YAP/TAZ in basal layer cells and in skin tumours. Contact with the basement membrane is lost in differentiating daughter cells, where YAP and TAZ become mostly cytoplasmic. In other types of squamous epithelia and squamous cell carcinomas, a similar control mechanism is present. By contrast, columnar epithelia differentiate an apical domain that recruits CRB3, Merlin (also known as NF2), KIBRA (also known as WWC1) and SAV1 to induce Hippo signalling and retain YAP/TAZ in the cytoplasm despite contact with the basal layer extracellular matrix. When columnar epithelial tumours lose their apical domain and become invasive, YAP/TAZ becomes nuclear and tumour growth becomes sensitive to the Src inhibitor Dasatinib.

Division of labor between YAP and TAZ in non-small cell lung cancer [RNA]

Project description:The paralogous transcriptional cofactors Yes-associated protein (YAP) and transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ, also called WWTR1), the main downstream effectors of the Hippo signal transduction pathway, are emerging as pivotal determinants of malignancy in lung cancer. Traditionally, studies have tended to consider YAP and TAZ as functionally redundant transcriptional cofactors, with similar biological impact. However, there is growing evidence that each of them also possesses distinct attributes. We sought to systematically characterize the division of labor between YAP and TAZ in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the most common histological subtype of lung cancer. We showed that the two paralogs orchestrate non-overlapping transcription programs in this cancer type.

Characterization of the interactomes of YAP and TAZ in podocytes identifies a relation between YAP and TAZ and proteins of the nuclear shuttling machinery

Project description:The two effector proteins of the Hippo signaling pathway, YAP and TAZ, play a pivotal role in the cellular homeostasis of podocytes and in the pathogenesis of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). We aim to unravel the unique and redundant functions of YAP and TAZ in the podocyte by identifying podocyte-specific interactors. We generated stable heat sensitive mouse podocytes (hsMPs) carrying a single copy integration of a transgenic construct expressing a flagged version of mouse Yap (3XFLAG.YAP), Taz (3XFLAG.TAZ) or Ruby (3XFLAG.RUBY) in the Rosa26 locus. To explore the interactome of YAP and TAZ in podocytes we immunoprecipitated the tagged proteins and characterized the co-immunoprecipitated protein complexes by mass spectrometry. Within the interactome analyses of the hsMPs, we identified shared and non-shared interacting proteins between YAP and TAZ. Among these identified proteins many well established interactors of YAP and TAZ were included, like proteins of the Tead family, different angiomotins or large tumor suppressor kinase 1 (Lats1). Strikingly, among the shared proteins were numerous proteins of the nuclear shuttling machinery, like importins (Ipo), exportins (Xpo), transportins (Tnpo) and nucleoporins (Nup) that form the nuclear pore complex (NPC), such as NUP107, NUP133, NUP205 and XPO5.

Transcriptional profiles of Tead1/4 Knockout and Unedited CT26 Cells

Project description:The Hippo kinase cascade converges on the transcriptional effectors YAP (Yes-associated protein) and TAZ (transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif), which regulate gene expression programs by interacting with the transcriptional enhanced associate domain (TEAD) family of transcription factors (TFs). As a key pathway in organ growth, tissue homeostasis, and regeneration, the YAP/TAZ-TEAD complex controls the transcription of genes crucial for replication, S-phase entry, and mitosis. To further elucidate the transcriptional regulatory network, we monitored the target genes of TEAD1 and TEAD4 using CUT&Tag and transcriptome sequencing.
