Major functional transcriptome of an inferred center regulator of an ER(-) breast cancer model system

ABSTRACT: We aimed to find clinically relevant gene activities ruled by the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) proteins in an ER(-) breast cancer population via network approach. STAT3 is negatively associated with both lymph nodal category and stage. MYC is a component of STAT3 network. MYC and STAT3 may co-regulate gene expressions for Warburg effect, stem cell like phenotype, cell proliferation and angiogenesis. We identified a STAT3 network in silico showing its ability in predicting its target gene expressions primarily for specific tumor subtype, tumor progression, treatment options and prognostic features. The aberrant expressions of MYC and STAT3 are enriched in triple negatives (TN). They promote histological grade, vascularity, metastasis and tumor anti-apoptotic activities. VEGFA, STAT3, FOXM1 and METAP2 are druggable targets. High levels of METAP2, MMP7, IGF2 and IGF2R are unfavorable prognostic factors. STAT3 is an inferred center regulator at early cancer development predominantly in TN.

The inferred mechanisms for prognostic features of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 in an ER(+) breast cancer model system

Project description:Abstract Aberrantly expressed signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) predicts poor prognosis primarily in estrogen receptor positive (ER(+)) breast cancers and activated STAT3 is overexpressed in luminal A subtype cells. The mechanisms contributing to the prognosis and/or subtype relevant features of *STAT3* in ER(+) breast cancers are* *through multiple interacting regulatory pathways including STAT3-MYC, STAT3-ER , STAT3-MYC-ER interactions and the direct action of activated STAT3. These results predict malignant events, treatment responses and a novel enhancer of tamoxifen resistance. The inferred crosstalk between ER and STAT3 in regulating their shared target gene-*METAP2* is partially validated in the luminal B breast cancer cell line-MCF7. Taken together, we identify a poor prognosis relevant gene set within the *STAT3* network and a robust one in a subset of patients. *VEGFA*, *ABL1*, *LYN*, *IGF2R* and* STAT3* are suggested therapeutic targets for further study based upon the degree of differential expression in our model. Keywords: STAT3 transcriptional regulatory network, prognosis, tamoxifen resistance, tumorigenesis, breast cancer.

Disruption of STAT3 signaling promotes KRAS induced lung tumorigenesis

Project description:Oncogenic STAT3 functions are known in various malignancies. We found that STAT3 plays an unexpected tumor suppressive role in KRAS-mutant non-small-cell-lung cancer (NSCLC). In mice, tissue-specific inactivation of Stat3 resulted in increased Kras (G12D)-driven NSCLC initiation and malignant progression leading to markedly reduced survival. Clinically, low STAT3 expression levels correlate with poor survival in human lung adenocarcinoma patients with smoking history. Consistently, KRAS-mutant lung tumors showed reduced STAT3 levels. Mechanistically, we show that STAT3 controls NFÎºB-induced IL-8-expression by sequestering NFÎºB in the cytoplasm while IL-8 in turn regulates myeloid tumor infiltration and tumor vascularization thereby promoting tumor progression. These results identify a novel STAT3-NFÎºB-IL-8 axis in KRAS-mutant NSCLC with therapeutic and prognostic relevance WT: Control lung; KRAS: Lung tumors expressing KRAS G12D; KRAS STAT3 KO: Lung tumors expressing KRAS G12D- STAT3 deficient; tumors of four mice pooled per sample

IL-6 promotes MYC-induced B cell lymphomagenesis independent of STAT3

Project description:The inflammatory cytokine IL-6 is known to play a causal role in the promotion of cancer, although the underlying mechanisms remain to be completely understood. Interplay between endogenous and environmental cues determines the fate of cancer development. The Eμ-myc transgenic mouse expresses elevated levels of c-Myc in the B cell lineage and develops B cell lymphomas with associated mutations in p53 or other genes linked to apoptosis. We generated Eμ-myc mice that either lacked the IL-6 gene, or lacked the STAT3 gene specifically in B cells to determine the role of the IL-6/JAK/STAT3 pathway in tumor development. Using the Eμ-myc lymphoma mouse model, we demonstrate that IL-6 is a critical tumor promoter during early stages of B cell lymphomagenesis. IL-6 is shown to inhibit the expression of tumor suppressors, notably BIM and PTEN, thereby advancing MYC-driven B cell tumorigenesis. Several miRNAs known to target BIM and PTEN are upregulated by IL-6 and likely lead to the stable suppression of pro-apoptotic pathways early during the tumorigenic process. STAT3, a classical downstream effector of IL-6, appears dispensable for Eμ-myc driven lymphomagenesis. We conclude that the growth-promoting and anti-apoptotic mechanisms activated by IL-6 are critically involved in Eμ-myc driven tumor initiation and progression, but the B cell intrinsic expression of STAT3 is not required.

Genetic Heterogeneity in Mouse Mammary Tumors

Project description:Human cancers result from a complex series of genetic alterations resulting in heterogeneous disease states. Dissecting this heterogeneity is critical for understanding underlying mechanisms and providing opportunities for therapeutics matching the complexity. Mouse models of cancer have generally been employed to reduce this complexity and focus on the role of single genes. Nevertheless, our analysis of tumors arising in the MMTV-Myc model of mammary carcinogenesis reveals substantial heterogeneity, seen in both histological and expression phenotypes. One contribution to this heterogeneity is the substantial frequency of activating Ras mutations, the frequency of which can be changed by alterations in Myc. Additionally, we show that these Myc-induced mammary tumors exhibit even greater heterogeneity, revealed by distinct histological subtypes as well as distinct patterns of gene expression, than many other mouse models of tumorigenesis. Two of the major histological subtypes are characterized by differential patterns of cellular signaling pathways, including B-Catenin and Stat3 activities. We also demonstrate the predictive nature of this approach though examining metastatic potential. Together, these data reveal that a combination of histological and genomic analyses can uncover substantial heterogeneity in mammary tumor formation and therefore highlight aspects of tumor phenotype not evident in the population as a whole. Keywords: Transcription factor expression analysis 20 MMTV-Neu Tumors, 25 Papillary MMTV-Myc T58A and 81 MMTV-Myc tumors of various histological subtypes were arrayed.

STAT1 deficiency underlies a proinflammatory imprint of naive CD4+ T cells in spondyloarthritis [RNA-Seq]

Project description:In spondyloarthritis (SpA), an increased type 3 immune response, including T helper cells (Th) 17 excess, is observed in both human and SpA animal models, such as the HLA-B27/human β2-microglobulin transgenic rat (B27-rat). To investigate this unexplained Th17-biased differentiation, we focused on understanding the immunobiology of B27-rat naive CD4+ T cells (Tn). We observed that neutrally stimulated B27-rat Tn developed heightened Th17 profile even before disease onset, suggesting an intrinsic proinflammatory predisposition. In parallel with this observation, transcriptomic and epigenomic analysis showed that B27-rat Tn exhibited a decreased expression of Interferon/Th1- and increased expression of Th17-related genes. This molecular signature was predicted to be related to an imbalance of STAT1/STAT3 transcription factors activity. Stat1 mRNA and STAT1 protein expression were decreased before disease onset in Tn, even in their thymic precursors, whereas Stat3/STAT3 expression increased upon disease establishment. Confirming the relevance of these results, STAT1 mRNA expression was also decreased in Tn from SpA patients, as compared with healthy controls and rheumatoid arthritis patients. Finally, stimulation of B27-rat Tn with a selective STAT1 activator abolished this preferential IL-17A expression, suggesting that STAT1 altered activity in B27-rats allows Th17 differentiation. Altogether, B27-rat Tn harbor a STAT1 deficiency preceding disease onset, that may occur during their thymic differentiation, secondarily associated with a persistent Th17 bias, which is imprinted at the epigenomic level. This early molecular phenomenon might lead to the persistent proinflammatory skew of CD4+ T cells in SpA patients, thus offering new clues to better understand and treat SpA.

FOXR2 Interacts with MYC to Promote Its Transcriptional Activities and Tumorigenesis

Project description:Combining the results of a large scale proteomic analysis of human transcription factor interaction network with knowledge databases, we identified FOXR2 as one of the top-ranked candidate proto-oncogenes. Here, we show that FOXR2 forms a stable complex with MYC and MAX and subsequently regulates cell proliferation by promoting MYC’s transcriptional activities. We demonstrated that FOXR2 is highly expressed in several breast, lung, and liver cancer cell lines and related patient tumor samples, while reduction of FOXR2 expression in a xenograft model inhibits tumor growth. These results indicate that FOXR2 acts with MYC to promote cancer cell proliferation, which is a potential tumor-specific target for therapeutic intervention against MYC-driven cancers.

STAT3 couples activated tyrosine kinase signaling to the oncogenic core transcriptional regulatory circuitry of anaplastic large cell lymphoma [RNA-seq]

Project description:Anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is an aggressive, CD30+ T-cell lymphoma of children and adults. ALK fusion transcripts or mutations in the JAK-STAT pathway are observed in most ALCL tumors, but the mechanisms underlying tumorigenesis are not fully understood. Here we show that dysregulated STAT3, together with a core transcriptional regulatory circuit consisting of BATF3–IRF4–IKZF1, co-occupies gene enhancers to establish an oncogenic transcription program and maintain the malignant state of ALCL. Critical downstream targets of this network in ALCL cells include the proto-oncogene MYC, which requires active STAT3 to facilitate high levels of MYC transcription. The activity of this auto-regulatory transcription loop is reinforced by MYC binding to the enhancer regions associated with STAT3 and each of the core regulatory transcription factors. These findings provide new insights for understanding how dysregulated signaling pathways hijack cell-type-specific transcriptional machinery to drive tumorigenesis and create therapeutic vulnerabilities in genetically defined tumors.
