Gene expression profiles of LS180 cells in which MYU, CTNNB1, or MYC expression was suppressed.

ABSTRACT: Aberrant activation of Wnt beta-catenin signalling is a major driving force in colon cancer. Wnt beta-catenin signalling induces the expression of the transcription factor c-Myc, leading to cell proliferation and tumourigenesis. c-Myc regulates multiple biological processes through its ability to directly modulate gene expression. However, the mechanisms underlying c-Myc-induced oncogenesis remain to be established. Here we identify a novel direct target of c-Myc, MYU (c-Myc-upregulated long non-coding RNA) and show that MYU is upregulated in most colon cancers and is required for the tumourigenicity of colon cancer cells. We further demonstrate that MYU associates with the RNA-binding protein hnRNP-K to stabilize CDK6 expression, and thereby promotes the G1-S transition of the cell cycle. These results suggest that the MYU/hnRNP-K/CDK6 pathway functions downstream of Wnt/c-Myc signalling and plays a critical role in the proliferation and tumourigenicity of colon cancer cells. MYU might be a promising molecular target for the therapeutic treatment of c-Myc-driven cancers.

B-catenin deficiency, but not c-Myc deletion, suppresses the immediate phenotypes of Apc loss in the liver

Project description:Dysregulated Wnt signalling is seen in approximately 30% of hepatocellular cancers, thus finding pathways downstream of activation of Wnt signalling is key. Using cre lox technology we have deleted the the adenomatous polyposis coli tumour suppressor protein (Apc) within the adult mouse liver and observed a rapid increase in nuclear beta-catenin and C-Myc. This is associated with an induction of proliferation leading to hepatomegally within 4 days of gene deletion. To investigate the downstream pathways responsible for these phenotypes we analysed the impact of inactivating Apc in the context of deficiency of the potentially key effectors beta-catenin and c-Myc. beta-catenin loss rescues both the proliferation and hepatomegally phenotypes following Apc loss. However c-Myc deletion, which rescues the phenotypes of Apc loss in the intestine, had no effect on the phenotypes of Apc loss. The consequences of deregulation the Wnt pathway within the liver are therefore strikingly different to those observed within the intestine, with the vast majority of Wnt targets beta-catenin dependent but c-Myc independent in the liver.

Hepatocyte identity and zonal position determine tumourigenic potential of mutant β-catenin

Project description:Oncogenic mutations in otherwise normal tissue are common in many adult tissues. This suggests multiple events need to converge to drive tumourigenesis and that many processes such as tissue differentiation may be protective against carcinogenesis. Within the liver Wnt/β-catenin signalling maintains zonal differentiation during liver homeostasis. However, the CTNNB1 oncogene—encoding β-catenin—is also frequently mutated in hepatocellular carcinoma, resulting in aberrant Wnt signalling that promotes cell growth. Here we investigated the antagonistic interplay between Wnt-driven growth and differentiation in zonal hepatocyte populations during liver tumorigenesis. In a model that acutely recombined mutant Wnt (Ctnnb1-ex3) and MYC alleles, we found that β-catenin mutants transiently stimulated growth in zone-1 and -2 hepatocytes within the Wnt-low region of the liver lobule – before inducing a differentiated zone-3 fate. To investigate the role of translation in this model of wnt and myc driven growth we performed Ribosome sequencing of whole liver at the early proliferative stage and the later differentiated stage. We found that Mutamt B-Catenin and MYC livers had a unique tanslational efficiency , which promted translation of RNA transcripts associated with growth.

Extracts from sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor), a feedstock for biorefining, suppressed proliferation and elevated apoptosis in human colon cancer stem cells via suppression of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway

Project description:In colorectal cancer, p53 is commonly inactivated, associated with chemo-resistance, and marks the transition from non-invasive to invasive disease. Cancers, including colorectal cancer, are thought to be diseases of aberrant stem cell populations, as stem cells are able to self-renew, making them long-lived enough to acquire mutations necessary to manifest the disease. We have shown that extracts from sweet sorghum stalk components eliminate colon cancer stem cells (CCSC) in a partial p53-dependent fashion. However, the underlying mechanisms are unknown. In the present study, CCSC were transfected with short hairpin-RNA against p53 (CCSC p53 shRNA) and treated with sweet sorghum phenolics extracted from different plant components (dermal layer, leaf, seed head and whole plant). While all components demonstrated anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects in CCSC, phenolics extracted from the dermal layer and seed head were more potent in eliminating CCSC by elevating caspases 3/7 activity, PARP cleavage, and DNA fragmentation in a p53-dependent and p53-independent fashion, respectively. Further investigations revealed that the anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects were associated with decreases in beta-catenin protein levels, and beta-catenin targets cyclin D1, cMyc, and survivin. These results suggest that the anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects of sweet sorghum extracts against human colon cancer stem cells are via suppression of Wnt/beta-catenin pro-survival signaling in a p53-dependent (dermal layer) and partial p53-independent (seed head) fashion.

Transcriptome changes following loss of Apc in the intestine

Project description:Nearly all colorectal cancers have dysregulated Wnt signalling, predominantly through the mutation of the Apc (Adenomatous Polyposis Coli) gene. Therefore it is of vital importance to elucidate the key Wnt target genes in intestinal cells in vivo. We have used a novel inducible cre-lox based murine system (designated ApcFlox) to investigate the consequences of perturbation of Wnt signalling following inactivation of Apc in vivo within 100% of the intestinal epithelium. We have employed microarray analysis at 3 time points within our ApcFlox system (Day 3 prior to the onset of phenotype, day 4 the establishment of the phenotype and day 5 gross phenotype of altered proliferation, differentiation and migration) and from adenomas arising in the ApcMin/+ background allowing us characterise Wnt/beta-catenin target genes based on their expression profiles during different stages of intestinal tumourigenesis. Furthermore, we have employed microarray analysis using livers from our ApcFlox system and have demonstrated that there is very little overlap in the Wnt target genes induced by Apc loss in the liver and the intestine. More importantly, we have been able to determine a novel set of putative Wnt/beta-catenin target genes which are upregulated at both early and late stages of tumourigenesis in the intestine and may represent novel therapeutic targets in colon cancer. Samples were collected from Genetcially modified mice of the genotypes indicated on the sample records. Where appropriate, gene recombination was induced using IP administration of beta-napthoflavone. Cohorts of samples were used to compare the affects of APC loss in the small intestine at three time points (and compared to matched control samples in which the gene was not recombined). Furthermore, these samples were compared to colonic polyps (and normal colon) taken from the Apcmin Mouse.

ZKSCAN3 knockout HCT116 colorectal cancer cell line

Project description:ZKSCAN3 is an oncogenic transcription factor in a set of human malignant tumors including colon, prostate, bladder, and cervical cancers. We investigated that ZKSCAN3 acts as a downstream effector of oncogenic Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway. Deletion or knockdown of ZKSCAN3 increased MAD2L2 expression, resulting in delaying the cell cycle progression by increasing the time laps between prometaphase and telophase. Our study demonstrates that ZKSCAN3 mediates oncogenic Wnt/beta-catenin signals and induces chromosomal instability by suppressing MAD2L2 at the early stage of colon cancer development.

The oncogene FOXQ1 is a selective activator of Wnt/β-catenin signalling

Project description:The forkhead box transcription factor FOXQ1 is aberrantly induced in various cancers, and contributes to tumour growth and metastasis. It has been suggested that the oncogenic potential of FOXQ1 may be explained by its activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway.However, the mode of action of FOXQ1 in the Wnt pathway remains to be resolved. Here we report that FOXQ1 is bimodal transcriptional activator of Wnt target gene expression in normal and cancer cells. Using co-immunoprecipitation, proximity proteomics, and reporter assays, we show that FOXQ1 engages the Wnt transcriptional complex to promote gene expressionvia TCF/LEF transcription factors.

Wnt signalling in colon cancer

Project description:Hypothesis and proof of concept: Our hypothesis is that increase in cellular iron import proteins (TfR1, DMT1) occur early in the adenoma-carcinoma sequence through mutations in APC and lead to cellular iron loading. As demonstrated in our previous work the effects of this iron loading is to mediate increased Wnt signalling resulting in c-myc induction. This in turn serves to increase the expression of iron import proteins (TfR1, DMT1) and decrease the expression of iron export (ferroportin [FPN]) and storage (ferritin) proteins. Such a hypothesis explains how Wnt signalling controls iron metabolism and ensures that there is adequate cellular iron for ATP generation and cellular proliferation. Experimental design: To test such a hypothesis we aim to prospectively collect the following colorectal tissue from patients attending for colonoscopy: 1. Normal colonic mucosa in patients with no colorectal pathology (n = 30) 2. Polyps and matched normal colon (n = 30) 3. Colorectal cancers and matched normal colon (n = 30) We also intend to collect serum and urine from the following patient groups: 4. Normal colonoscopy (n = 30) 5. Colorectal adenomas (n = 30) 6. Colorectal cancers (n = 30) Primary outcome(s): Measured at baseline, using the expression of proteins in the tissue and serum to detect the cellular and systemic iron transport proteins. The techniques used will include mass spectrometry, western blotting, real time PCR and immunohistochemistry.

The beta-catenin interactome in a vascular smooth muscle cell model

Project description:Canonical Wnt/β-catenin signalling is an essential regulator of various cellular functions throughout development and adulthood. Aberrant Wnt/β-catenin signalling also contributes to various pathologies including cancer, necessitating an understanding of cell context dependent mechanisms regulating this pathway. Since protein-protein interactions underpin β-catenin function and localization, we sought to identify novel β-catenin interacting partners by affinity purification coupled with tandem mass spectrometry in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), where β-catenin is involved in both physiological and pathological control of cell proliferation. Here, we report novel components of the VSMC β-catenin interactome.
