MiRNA expression profiling in rhabdomyosarcoma cell lines

ABSTRACT: Rhabdomyosarcomas (RMS) are rare but very aggressive tumours of childhood that arise as a consequence of regulatory disruption of the growth and differentiation pathways of myogenic precursor cells. Based on morphology, two major RMS subtypes can be identified: embryonal RMS (ERMS) and alveolar (ARMS). To better understand the global function of miRNA in RMS, we analyzed the expression profile of 8 different RMS cell lines (3 PAX3/FOXO1 positive and 5 PAX3/FOXO1 negative RMS) using the mirVana miRNA Probe Set V1 (Ambion). The miRNA microarray platform was able to distinguish PAX3/FOXO1 positive (RH4, RH30, RH28) and negative RMS (RD, CCA, SMS-CTR, RH36, RH18) cell lines through the expression pattern of about 90 miRNAs. Since the translocation positive RMS patients fared worse than the negative counterpart our results demonstrated the potential of miRNA expression profiling to classify different RMS subtypes, in agreement to previous gene expression studies, and set the basis for a further functional characterization of selected miRNAs implicated in RMS pathogenesis and in the different clinical behaviour and aggressiveness of the two RMS subtypes. We decided to study miRNAs with the greatest difference in expression between PAX3/FOXO1 positive and negative RMS:miR-23a, miR-27a and miR-199a.

Genome-wide map of PAX3-FKHR binding sites in rhabdomyosarcoma

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. Examination of PAX3-FKHR binding sites in translocation-positive rhabdomyosarcoma cells via ChIP-seq with an antibody specific for the fusion protein.

Dependence of PAX3-FOXO1 chromatin occupancy on ETS1 at important disease-promoting genes exposes new targetable vulnerability in Fusion-Positive Rhabdomyosarcoma [CUT&Run]

Project description:Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS), a malignancy of impaired myogenic differentiation, is the most common soft tissue pediatric cancer. PAX3-FOXO1 oncofusions drive the majority of the clinically more aggressive fusion-positive rhabdomyosarcoma (FP-RMS). Recent studies have established an epigenetic basis for PAX3-FOXO1-driven oncogenic processes. However, details of PAX3-FOXO1 epigenetic mechanisms, including interactions with, and dependence on, other chromatin and transcription factors, are incompletely understood. We previously identified a novel disease-promoting epigenetic axis in RMS, involving the histone demethylase KDM3A and the ETS1 transcription factor, and demonstrated that this epigenetic axis interfaces with PAX3-FOXO1 both phenotypically and transcriptomically, including co-regulation of biological processes and genes important to FP-RMS progression. In this study, we demonstrate that KDM3A and ETS1 colocalize with PAX3-FOXO1 to enhancers of important disease-promoting genes in FP-RMS, including FGF8, IL4R, and MEST, as well as PODXL, which we define herein as a new FP-RMS-promoting gene. We show that ETS1, which is induced by both PAX3-FOXO1 and KDM3A, exists in complex with PAX3-FOXO1, and augments PAX3-FOXO1 chromatin occupancy. We further show that the PAX3-FOXO1/ETS1 complex can be disrupted by the clinically relevant small molecule inhibitor YK-4-279. YK-4-279 displaces PAX3-FOXO1 from chromatin and interferes with PAX3-FOXO1-dependent gene regulation, resulting in potent inhibition of growth and invasive properties in FP-RMS, along with downregulation of FGF8, IL4R, MEST and PODXL expression. We additionally show that, in some FP-RMS, KDM3A also increases PAX3-FOXO1 levels. Together, our studies illuminate mechanisms of action of the KDM3A/ETS1 regulatory module, and reveal novel targetable mechanisms of PAX3-FOXO1 chromatin complex regulation, in FP-RMS.

Piperacetazine directly binds to the PAX3::FOXO1 fusion protein and inhibits its transcriptional activity

Project description:The tumor-specific chromosomal translocation product, PAX3::FOXO1, is an aberrant fusion protein that plays a key role for oncogenesis in the alveolar subtype of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS). PAX3::FOXO1 represents a validated molecular target for alveolar RMS and successful inhibition of its oncogenic activity is likely to have significant clinical applications. Even though several PAX3::FOXO1 function-based screening studies have been successfully completed, a directly binding small molecule inhibitor of PAX3::FOXO1 has not been reported. Therefore, we screened small molecule libraries to identify compounds that were capable of directly binding to PAX3::FOXO1 protein using surface plasmon resonance technology. Compounds that directly bound to PAX3::FOXO1 were further evaluated in secondary transcriptional activation assays. We discovered that piperacetazine can directly bind to PAX3::FOXO1 protein and inhibit fusion protein-derived transcription in multiple alveolar RMS cell lines. Piperacetazine inhibited anchorage-independent growth of fusion positive alveolar RMS cells but not embryonal RMS cells. Based on our findings, piperacetazine is a molecular scaffold upon which derivatives could be developed as specific inhibitors of PAX3::FOXO1. These novel inhibitors could potentially be evaluated in future clinical trials for recurrent or metastatic alveolar RMS as novel targeted therapy options.

Targeting KDM4 for treating PAX3-FOXO1-driven alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma [CUT&Tag]

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.
