Wnt5A promotes an adaptive, senescent-like stress response, while continuing to drive invasion in melanoma cells.

ABSTRACT: We have previously shown that Wnt5A drives invasion in melanoma. We have also shown that Wnt5A promotes resistance to therapy designed to target the BRAF(V600E) mutation in melanoma. Here, we show that melanomas characterized by high levels of Wnt5A respond to therapeutic stress by increasing p21 and expressing classical markers of senescence, including positivity for senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal), senescence-associated heterochromatic foci (SAHF), H3K9Me chromatin marks, and PML bodies. We find that despite this, these cells retain their ability to migrate and invade. Further, despite the expression of classic markers of senescence such as SA-β-gal and SAHF, these Wnt5A-high cells are able to colonize the lungs in in vivo tail vein colony-forming assays. This clearly underscores the fact that these markers do not indicate true senescence in these cells, but instead an adaptive stress response that allows the cells to evade therapy and invade. Notably, silencing Wnt5A reduces expression of these markers and decreases invasiveness. The combined data point to Wnt5A as a master regulator of an adaptive stress response in melanoma, which may contribute to therapy resistance.

Wnt5A promotes an adaptive, senescent-like stress response, while continuing to drive invasion in melanoma cells.

Project description:We have previously shown that Wnt5A drives invasion in melanoma. We have also shown that Wnt5A promotes resistance to therapy designed to target the BRAF(V600E) mutation in melanoma. Here, we show that melanomas characterized by high levels of Wnt5A respond to therapeutic stress by increasing p21 and expressing classical markers of senescence, including positivity for senescence-associated ?-galactosidase (SA-?-gal), senescence-associated heterochromatic foci (SAHF), H3K9Me chromatin marks, and PML bodies. We find that despite this, these cells retain their ability to migrate and invade. Further, despite the expression of classic markers of senescence such as SA-?-gal and SAHF, these Wnt5A-high cells are able to colonize the lungs in in vivo tail vein colony-forming assays. This clearly underscores the fact that these markers do not indicate true senescence in these cells, but instead an adaptive stress response that allows the cells to evade therapy and invade. Notably, silencing Wnt5A reduces expression of these markers and decreases invasiveness. The combined data point to Wnt5A as a master regulator of an adaptive stress response in melanoma, which may contribute to therapy resistance. To better understand the molecular mechanisms governing the response of highly invasive cells to IR as compared to that of poorly invasive cells, we performed microarray analysis of both poorly and highly invasive cells at early and late timepoints after irradiation. Cells were treated with y-irradiation, and RNA was taken at 1 hour, 24 hours and 5 days after irradiation. Microarray analysis was performed using Illumina Human HT-12 ver3 expression arrays, and each time point was compared to RNA from untreated cells.

Chemotherapy-induced cellular senescence is characterized by aberrant lipid regulation and lipid peroxidation

Project description:As normal cells approach their proliferative limit, they arrest to undergo replicative senescence, displaying large cell size, flat morphology and activation of senescence-associated beta-galactosidase (SA-b-Gal). A subset of normal or tumor cells exposed in vitro or in vivo to chemotherapy agents such as etoposide perform a related response with a similar cellular phenotype dubbed therapy-induced senescence (TIS). High cellular heterogeneity in samples including TIS cells can impede confident determination of senescence-specific factors, frustrating discovery of markers and targets for functional analysis. As a TIS study model, we treated murine melanoma cells with the chemotherapeutic etoposide, applied a live-cell fluorescent SA-b-Gal senescence assay, and utilized fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) to enrich TIS cells. Enriched senescent cell samples were subjected to mass spectrometry and label-free quantitative proteomics analysis, alongside proliferating and quiescent cell samples. Systems biology analysis revealed that senescent cells overexpress proteins and pathways regulating glycolipid processing, lipid metabolism, and lipid peroxidation. Senescence-associated activation of numerous glycosidases was observed, along with elevated cell surface expression of several major lipid regulatory proteins. Senescent cells were found to contain abundant lipid droplets and to import various types of extracellular lipids in correlation with extent of SA-b-Gal expression, and tumor cells were observed to spontaneously senesce in the presence of excess ceramide or triglycerides. Redox-induced lipid peroxidation, resulting in accumulation of cellular reactive aldehydes and consequent expression of aldehyde detoxification enzymes, was observed to be a key feature of TIS induced by three DNA-damaging chemotherapeutics.

Involvement of Condensin in Cellular Senescence through Gene Regulation and Compartmental Reorganization

Project description:Cellular senescence is a state of stable cell growth arrest induced by various stimuli such as oncogene expression and telomere shortening, referred to as oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) and replicative senescence (RS), respectively. Senescence is accompanied not only by global transcriptional alterations but also by 3D genome reorganization. Here we demonstrate that the human condensin II complex participates in cellular senescence via gene regulation and reorganization of euchromatic A and heterochromatic B chromatin compartments. OIS and RS are accompanied by A-to-B and B-to-A compartmental transitions, the latter of which occur more frequently and account for 15% of the human genome. Mechanistically, condensin is enriched at A compartments, especially at gene promoters and typical/super enhancers, and implicated in the B-to-A transitions. Genes present at B-to-A-switching regions tend to be up-regulated. The full activation of senescence genes (SASP genes and p53 targets) requires condensin; its depletion impairs senescence markers such as the activity of senescence-associated beta-galactosidase (SA-beta-gal) and senescence-associated heterochromatic foci (SAHF). This study describes that condensin reinforces euchromatic A compartments and is required for optimal expression of senescence genes, thereby contributing to the establishment and maintenance of the senescent state.

Implications of time-series gene expression profiles of replicative senescence

Project description:Although senescence has long been implicated in aging-associated pathologies, it is not clearly understood how senescent cells are linked to these diseases. To address this knowledge gap, we profiled cellular senescence phenotypes and mRNA expression patterns during replicative senescence in human diploid fibroblasts. We identified a sequential order of gain-of-senescence phenotypes: low levels of reactive oxygen species, cell mass/size increases with delayed cell growth, high levels of reactive oxygen species with increases in senescence-associated β-galactosidase activity (SA-β-gal), and high levels of SA-β-gal activity. Gene expression profiling revealed four distinct modules in which genes were prominently expressed at certain stages of senescence, allowing us to divide the process into four stages: early, middle, advanced, and very advanced. Interestingly, the gene expression modules governing each stage supported the development of the associated senescence phenotypes. Senescence-associated secretory phenotype-related genes also displayed a stage-specific expression pattern with three unique features during senescence: differential expression of interleukin isoforms, differential expression of interleukins and their receptors, and differential expression of matrix metalloproteinases and their inhibitory proteins.

Muscle injury induces a transient senescence-like state that is required for myofiber growth during muscle regeneration

Project description:Cellular senescence is the irreversible arrest of normally dividing cells and is driven by the cell cycle inhibitors Cdkn2a, Cdkn1a, and Trp53. Senescent cells are implicated in chronic diseases and tissue repair through their increased secretion of proinflammatory factors known as the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). Here, we use spatial transcriptomics and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) to demonstrate that cells displaying senescent characteristics are “transiently" present within regenerating skeletal muscle and within the muscles of D2-mdx mice, a model of Muscular Dystrophy. Following injury, multiple cell types including macrophages and fibro-adipogenic progenitors (FAPs) upregulate senescent features such as senescence pathway genes, SASP factors, and senescence-associated beta-gal (SA-β-gal) activity. Importantly, when these cells were removed with ABT-263, a senolytic compound, satellite cells are reduced, and muscle fibers were impaired in growth and myonuclear accretion.

Complement induced aberrant epigenetic modifications in renal tubular epithelial cells and accelerates senescence after kidney transplantation by Wnt pathway

Project description:Epigenetic mechanisms as DNA methylation can affect allograft outcome after kidney transplantation, accelerating renal aging. Complement system is the major player of ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury and Renal Proximal Tubular Cells (RPTEC) are known to express C5a receptor (C5aR). However, little is known about the downstream effect of C5a-C5aR interaction. We performed a whole-genome DNA methylation analysis on C5a stimulated RPTEC and found several regions regulating genes involved in cell cycle control, DNA damage checkpoints and WNT signaling. These most represented genes were BCL9, CYP1B1 and CDK6. We showed that C5a induced-aberrant gene methylation significantly influences the expression of these genes. Moreover, the stimulation of RTEC by C5a led to senescence by up-regulating SA-β Gal positivity and increasing p53 gene and p21 protein level. IL-6, MCP-1, CTGF gene levels increase indicated the tubular SASP (Senescence associated Secretory Phenotype) acquirement. In accordance, in a swine model of I/R injury, we found that the increase expression of WNT4/βcatenin expression correlated with the augment in SA-β Gal, p21, p16 and IL-6 positivity after 24h from reperfusion. The treatment with C1-INH, a complement inhibitor, efficiently antagonized SASP restoring SA-β Gal, p21, p16, IL-6 expression at basal level and abrogating the WNT4/βcatenin activation. Thus, C5a affects the DNA methylation of genes involved in tubular senescence leading to a persistent, low-grade, inflammatory state called inflammaging. Targeting epigenetic programs may offer novels strategies to protect tubular cells from aging and promote kidney repair and recovery.

Senescent Characteristics of Human Corneal Endothelial Cells upon Ultraviolet-A Exposure

Project description:Purpose: The objective of this study was to investigate the senescent phenotypes of human corneal endothelial cells (hCEnCs) upon treatment with ultraviolet (UV)-A. Methods: We assessed cell morphology, senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) activity, cell proliferation and expression of senescence markers (p16 and p21) in hCEnCs exposed to UV-A radiation, and senescent hCEnCs induced by ionizing radiation (IR) were used as positive controls. We performed RNA sequencing and proteomics analysis to compare gene and protein expression profiles between UV-A- and IR-induced senescent hCEnCs, and we also compared the results to non-senescent hCEnCs. Results: Cells exposed to 5 J/cm2 of UV-A or to IR exhibited typical senescent phenotypes, including enlargement, increased SA-β-gal activity, decreased cell proliferation and elevated expression of p16 and p21. RNA-Seq analysis revealed that 83.9% of the genes significantly upregulated and 82.6% of the genes significantly downregulated in UV-A-induced senescent hCEnCs overlapped with the genes regulated in IR-induced senescent hCEnCs. Proteomics also revealed that 93.8% of the proteins significantly upregulated in UV-A-induced senescent hCEnCs overlapped with those induced by IR. In proteomics analyses, senescent hCEnCs induced by UV-A exhibited elevated expression levels of several factors part of the senescence-associated secretory phenotype. Conclusion: In this study, where senescence was induced by UV-A, a more physiological stress for hCEnCs compared to IR, we determined that UV-A modulated the expression of many genes and proteins typically altered upon IR treatment, a more conventional method of senescence induction, even though UV-A also modulated specific pathways unrelated to IR.
