Project description:Interrogation of microRNA expression and regulation by PAX3-FOXO1 in Fusion-Positive Rhabdomyosarcoma.

Project description:PAX3-FOXO1 is a fusion transcription factor characteristic for the majority of alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma tumors. It is the main oncogenic driver and deregulates expression of PAX3 target genes. The PAX3-FOXO1 target gene signature was determined in the Rh4 alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma cell line.

Project description:Background: Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) has a high propensity to metastasize, leading to its aggressiveness and a poor survival rate among those with the disease. More than 80% of aggressive ARMSs harbor a PAX3-FKHR fusion transcription factor, which regulates cell migration and promotes metastasis, most likely by regulating the fusion protein's transcriptional targets. Therefore, identifying druggable transcription targets of PAX3-FKHR that are also downstream effectors of PAX3-FKHR-mediated cell migration and metastasis may lead to novel therapeutic approaches for treating ARMS. Methods: To identify genes whose expression is directly affected by the level of PAX3-FKHR in an ARMS cellular-context, we first developed an ARMS cell line in which PAX3-FKHR is stably down-regulated, and showed that stably downregulating PAX3-FKHR in ARMS cells significantly decreased the cells' motility. We used microarrays analysis to identify genes whose expression level decreased when PAX3-FKHR was downregulated. We used mutational analysis, promoter reporter assays, and electrophoretic mobility shift assays to determine whether PAX3-FKHR binds directly and specifically to the promoter region of the target gene. We used siRNA and pharmacologic inhibitor to downregulate the target gene of PAX3-FKHR and investigated the effect of such downregulation on cell motility, Results: We found that When PAX3-FKHR was downregulated, the expression of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A (CPT1A) decreased. We showed that PAX3-FKHR binds directly and specifically to a paired-domain binding-site in the CPT1A promoter region, indicating that CPT1A is a novel direct transcriptional target of PAX3-FKHR. Furthermore, downregulating CPT1Adecreased cell motility in ARMS cells, indicating that CPT1A is a downstream effector of PAX3-FKHR-mediated cell migration and metastasis. Conclusions: Taken together, we have identified CPT1A as a novel direct transcriptional target of PAX3-FKHR and revealed the novel function of CPT1A in promoting cell motility. CPT1A may represent a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of ARMS. Identification of transcription targets of PAX3-FKHR in human alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma: By stably knocking down PAX3-FKHR in human alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma cell line Rh30 and comparing the gene expression profile of the knockdown clone (KD) to the parental Rh30, transcription targets of PAX3-FKHR have been identified. Gene expression in parental Rh30 cells was compared to that in either Rh30 cells stably expressing shRNA targeting PAX3-FKHR (KD) or control non-targeting shRNA (CON), in duplicate.

Project description:Chimeric transcription factors drive lineage-specific oncogenesis but are notoriously difficult to target. Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is an aggressive childhood soft tissue sarcoma transformed by the pathognomonic PAX3–FOXO1 fusion protein, which governs a core regulatory circuitry transcription factor (CRC TF) network. Here we show that the histone lysine demethylase KDM4B is a therapeutic vulnerability for PAX3–FOXO1+ RMS. Genetic and pharmacologic inhibition of KDM4B significantly delays tumor growth by disrupting the expression of CRC TFs caused by epigenetic alterations of PAX3–FOXO1-governed super enhancers. Combining KDM4B inhibition with cytotoxic chemotherapy leads to significant tumor regression in preclinical PAX3–FOXO1+ RMS models. In summary, we have identified a targetable mechanism required for maintenance of PAX3-FOXO1-related CRC TF network, which may translate to a novel therapeutic approach for fusion-positive RMS.

Project description:We report the genome-wide maps of PAX3-FKHR binding sites. Chromatin immunoprecipitation was performed against PAX3-FKHR positive (Rh4) and PAX3-FKHR negative (RD) rhabdomyosarcoma cells with a monoclonal antibody (pFM2) specific for the fusion region of PAX3-FKHR. We obtained 4 million sequence tags for both input and ChIP DNA that aligned to the human genome. We identified 1,463 binding sites from ChIP-seq of Rh4 cells, none of which appeared from ChIP-seq of fusion negative RD cells. The PAX3-FKHR binding sites were found to associate with 1,072 genes in RMS cells. The data shows that PAX3-FKHR binds to the same sites as PAX3, at the enhancers for MYF5, FGFR4, and the MYOD core enhancer previously shown to be regulated by PAX3. Moreover, our dataset has the precision for rapid identification and validation of novel and specific sequences required for the enhancer activity of MYOD and FGFR4. The genome wide analysis reveals that the PAX3-FKHR sites are: 1) mostly distal to transcription start sites; 2) conserved; 3) enriched for PAX3 motifs; and 4) strongly associated with genes over-expressed in PAX3-FKHR positive RMS cells and tumors. There is little evidence in our dataset for PAX3-FKHR binding at the promoters. In one instance, we show two intronic enhancer elements for MET, rather than at the previously described promoter. The genome-wide analysis further illustrates a strong association between PAX3 and E-box motifs in these binding sites, suggestive of a common co-regulation for many target genes. The map of PAX3-FKHR binding sites provides new links for PAX3 and PAX3-FKHR functions and new targets for RMS therapy.
