Project description:Objectives: To identify similarities and differences in gene expression data in the MEK/ERK and PI3K pathways and to determine how histone modification affects these same pathways. Goal: To identify and functionally characterize novel targets of these signaling pathways in the context of chondrocyte differentiation. Experiment Overall Design: Cartilage derived from the hind limbs of CD1 mice staged at 15.5 days of embryonic development were dissected and plated in primary chondrocyte monolayer cultures. Cells were treated with MEK/ERK pathway inhibitors (SB202190 and UO126), a PI3K inhibitor (LY294002), a histone deacetylase inhibitor (Trichostatin A) and the vehicle control (DMSO) for two hours. Total RNA was isolated from these samples and hybridized to Affymetrix MOE 430 2.0 chips at the London Regional Genomics facility. Experiment Overall Design: A total of 15 genechips were analyzed between 4 treatments and the vehicle (DMSO) control. Three biological replicates per treatment were executed.

Project description:Though mitogen activated protein kinase kinases (MKK or MEK) 1 and 2 are widely assumed to be functionally redundant some reports indicate they possess distinct biologic activities. To test the hypothesis that MEK1 and MEK2 signaling pathways are interchangeable we used two complementary approaches to determine the necessity and sufficiency of individual MEK1 and MEK2 signaling pathways for human melanoma SK-MEL-28 cell proliferation. To test the necessity we targeted MEK1 and/or MEK2 using specific siRNAs. An effect on proliferation was observed only when both MEK1 and MEK2 were knocked down indicating that neither of the individual MEK isoforms is necessary for SK-MEL-28 cell proliferation. To test the sufficiency we inhibited multiple MEK and MKK signaling pathways in SK-MEL-28 cells with anthrax lethal toxin (LeTx) a MEK/MKK-specific protease and rescued individual MEK signaling pathways by expressing a cleavage-resistant form of MEK (MEKcr). In this fashion ERK activation was retained only in MEK2cr-expressing cells but not in MEK1cr-expressing cells following LeTx treatment. Microarray analysis revealed groups of non-overlapping downstream transcriptional targets of MEK1 and MEK2 and indicated a substantial rescue effect of MEK2cr on proliferation pathways. Furthermore LeTx efficiently inhibited the cell proliferation and anchorage-independent growth of SK-MEL-28 cells expressing MKK1cr but not MEK2cr. These results not only indicate that in this cellular context MEK2 signaling pathway alone is sufficient for ERK activation melanoma cell proliferation and anchorage-independent growth but MEK1 is not but also demonstrate that MEK1 and MEK2 signaling pathways are not redundant and interchangeable for melanoma cell proliferation. We conclude that while MEK2 alone is sufficient for SK-MEL-28 cell proliferation MEK1 can conditionally compensate for loss of MEK2. SK-MEL-28 melanoma cells +/- cleavage resistant MKK1/MKK2

Project description:PDGF-induced genes regulated by the PI3K and MEK/ERK signaling pathways
| PRJNA87239 | ENA
Project description:Human T98G glioblastoma cells were stimulated with platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and analyzed by DNA microarrays, which identified 74 immediate-early gene transcripts. Cells were then treated with inhibitors to identify subsets of genes that are targets of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and MEK/ERK signaling pathways. Four groups of PDGF-induced genes were defined: independent of PI3K and MEK/ERK signaling, dependent on PI3K signaling, dependent on MEK/ERK signaling, and dependent on both pathways. Cells were grown in Minimal Essential Medium (Invitrogen) supplemented with fetal calf serum (10%). For growth factor/inhibitor treatments, cells were incubated in serum-free medium for 72 h, and either left unstimulated, or stimulated for 30 min with human PDGF-BB (50 ng/ml) (Sigma). U0126 (Cell Signaling Technology) and LY294002 (BioMol) were added 60 min prior to PDGF addition. Keywords: other

Project description:To identify downstream targets of Jak/Stat3 pathways without being distracted by differentiation signalings from MEK/ERK pathway, we exploited a engineered B6 cells, which stably stably expressing a chimeric receptor (GRgp-Y118F). The chimeric receptor can induce the phosphorylation of Stat3 by GCSF without activating the MEK/ERK pathway. To mimic the effect of GCSF, the chimeric B6 cells were also treated with LIF plus a selective MEK chemical inhibitor, PD0325901, to induce LIF/Jak/Stat3 but MEK/ERK pathways. mESCs starved in serum free growth medium for 6hrs were treated with GCSF or with LIF plus PD0325901 for 1hr, after which total RNA was extracted for analysis.

Project description:Cartilage originates from mesenchymal cell condensations that differentiate into chondrocytes of transient growth plate cartilage or permanent cartilage of the articular joint surface and trachea. MicroRNAs fine-tune the activation of entire signaling networks and thereby modulate complex cellular responses, but so far only limited data are available on miRNAs that regulate cartilage development. Here we characterize an miRNA which promotes the biosynthesis of a key component in the RAF/MEK/ERK pathway in cartilage. Specifically, by transcriptome profiling we identified miR-322 to be upregulated during chondrocyte differentiation. Among the various miR-322 target genes in the RAF/MEK/ERK pathway, only Mek1 was identified as a regulated target in chondrocytes. Surprisingly, an increased concentration of miR-322 stabilizes Mek1-mRNA to arise protein levels and dampen ERK1/2 phosphorylation, while cartilage-specific inactivation in mice linked the loss of miR-322 to decreased MEK1 levels and increased RAF/MEK/ERK pathway activation. Such mice died perinatally due to tracheal growth restriction and respiratory failure. Hence, a single miRNA can stimulate the production of an inhibitory component of a central signaling pathway to impair cartilage development.
