Project description:Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is the primary cause of prostate cancer-specific mortality. Defining new mechanisms that can predict recurrence and drive lethal CRPC is critical. Here, we demonstrate that localized high-risk prostate cancer and metastatic CRPC, but not benign prostate tissues or low/intermediate-risk prostate cancer, express high levels of nuclear Notch homolog 1, translocation-associated (Notch1) receptor intracellular domain. Chronic activation of Notch1 synergizes with multiple oncogenic pathways altered in early disease to promote the development of prostate adenocarcinoma. These tumors display features of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, a cellular state associated with increased tumor aggressiveness. Consistent with its activation in clinical CRPC, tumors driven by Notch1 intracellular domain in combination with multiple pathways altered in prostate cancer are metastatic and resistant to androgen deprivation. Our study provides functional evidence that the Notch1 signaling axis synergizes with alternative pathways in promoting metastatic CRPC and may represent a new therapeutic target for advanced prostate cancer.

Project description:The NOTCH1 signaling pathway directly links extracellular signals with transcriptional responses in the cell nucleus and plays a critical role during T-cell development and in the pathogenesis over 50% of human T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) cases. However, little is known about the transcriptional programs activated by NOTCH1. Using an integrative systems biology approach we show that NOTCH1 controls a feed-forward loop transcriptional network that promotes cell growth. Inhibition of NOTCH1 signaling in T-ALL cells led to a reduction in cell size and elicited a gene expression signature dominated by downregulated biosynthetic pathway genes. By integrating gene expression array and ChIP-on-chip data, we show that NOTCH1 directly activates multiple biosynthetic routes and induces c-MYC gene expression. Reverse engineering of regulatory networks from expression profiles showed that NOTCH1 and c-MYC govern two directly interconnected transcriptional programs containing common target genes that together regulate the growth of primary T-ALL cells. These results identify c-MYC as an essential mediator of NOTCH1 signaling and integrate NOTCH1 activation with oncogenic signaling pathways upstream of c-MYC. Keywords: Drug treatment

Project description:To investigate the regulatory role of Notch1 signaling pathway in mouse prostate growth and development, we constructed mice with prostate-specific overactivation of Notch1 intracellular domain N1ICD, in which Notch1 signaling was overactivated in prostate epithelial cells. We then analyzed gene expression profiles in the prostates of overexpressed and normal Notch1 mice.

Project description:Uterine receptivity implies a dialogue between the hormonally primed maternal endometrium and the free-floating blastocyst. Endometrial stromal cells proliferate, avert apoptosis, and undergo decidualization in preparation for implantation; however, the molecular mechanisms that underlie differentiation into the decidual phenotype remain largely undefined. The Notch family of transmembrane receptors transduce extracellular signals responsible for cell survival, cell-to-cell communication, and trans-differentiation, all fundamental processes for decidualization and pregnancy. Using a murine artificial decidualization model, pharmacological inhibition of Notch signaling by gamma-secretase inhibition resulted in significantly decreased deciduoma. Furthermore, a progesterone receptor (PR)-Cre Notch1 bigenic (Notch1d/d) confirmed a Notch1-dependant hypomorphic decidual phenotype. Microarray and pathway analysis, following Notch1 ablation, demonstrated significantly altered signaling repertoire. Concomitantly, hierarchical clustering demonstrated Notch1-dependent differences in gene expression. Uteri deprived of Notch1 signaling demonstrated decreased cellular proliferation; namely, reduced proliferation-specific antigen, Ki67, altered p21, cdk6, and cyclinD activity, and increased apoptotic-profile, augmented cleaved caspase-3, Bad, and attenuated Bcl2. Demonstrated here, the pre-implantation uterus relies on Notch signaling to inhibit apoptosis of stromal fibroblasts and regulate cell cycle progression, which together promotes successful decidualization. In summary, Notch1 signaling modulates multiple signaling mechanisms crucial for decidualization and we provide greater perspective to the coordination of multiple signaling modalities required during decidualization

Project description:The integration of diverse ‘omic’ datasets will increase our understanding of the key signaling pathways that drive disease. Here, we used clinical tissue cohorts corresponding to lethal metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) obtained at rapid autopsy to integrate mutational, transcriptomic, and phosphoproteomic datasets for pathway analysis. Using Tied Diffusion through Interacting Events (TieDIE), we integrated differentially expressed transcriptional master regulators, functionally mutated genes, and differentially ‘activated’ kinases in CRPC tissues to synthesize a robust signaling network consisting of pathways with known and novel gene interactions. For 6 individual CRPC patients for which we had transcriptomic and phosphoproteomic data we observed distinct pathway activation states for each patient profile. In one patient, the activated pathways were strikingly similar to a prostate cancer cell line, 22Rv1, providing us with a good pre-clinical model to test targeted, combination therapies. In all, synthesis of multiple ‘omic’ datasets revealed a plethora of pathway information suitable for targeted therapies in lethal prostate cancer.

Project description:Molecular signaling that regulates differentiation, survival and proliferation of the prostate luminal epithelial cells has not been thoroughly understood. Herein, we show that increased canonical Notch1 activity suppresses terminal differentiation of prostate luminal epithelial cells but is insufficient to transform. Augmented Notch1 activity delays anoikis of luminal epithelial cells by augmenting NF-κB activity independent of Hes-1, stimulates luminal cell proliferation by potentiating the PI3K-AKT signaling, and rescues the capacities of a fraction of prostate luminal epithelial cells for unipotent differentiation in vivo and short-term self-renewal in vitro. Epithelial cell-autonomous AR signaling is dispensable for the Notch-mediated cellular survival and proliferation. This study reveals a previously unappreciated role of Notch in prostatic luminal epithelial cell differentiation, supports the presence of a lineage hierarchy within the prostate luminal epithelial cells, and implies a pro-metastatic function of Notch signaling during prostate cancer progression.
