Project description:Purpose: Identify new targets in MYCN-amplified Neuroblastoma Methods: ChIP-Seq experiments were performed on Kelly and LAN-1 neuroblastoma cells by using the following antibodies: anti-EZH2 (Cell Signaling 5246S); anti-H3K27me3 (Millipore 07-449); anti-H3K4me3 (Abcam ab8580). We evaluated the global EZH2 PRC2-dependence by identifiying direct genome-wide target genes for EZH2, H3K27me3 and H3K4me3. Results: We found that EZH2 serves a PRC2-dependent function in neuroblastoma, repressing neuronal differentiation. Moreover, EZH2-regulated genes were strongly repressed in MYCN-amplified and high-risk primary tumors. Conclusion: Our study supports testing EZH2 inhibitors in patients with MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma.

Project description:MYCN amplification in neuroblastoma leads to aberrant expression of MYCN oncoprotein, which binds active genes promoting transcriptional amplification. Yet how MYCN coordinates transcription elongation to meet productive transcriptional amplification and which elongation machinery represents MYCN-driven vulnerability remain to be identified. We conducted a targeted screen of transcription elongation factors and identified the super elongation complex (SEC) as a unique vulnerability in MYCN-amplified neuroblastomas. MYCN directly binds EAF1 and recruits SEC to enhance processive transcription elongation. Depletion of EAF1 or AFF1/AFF4, another core subunit of SEC, leads to a global reduction in transcription elongation and elicits selective apoptosis of MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma cells. A combination screen reveals SEC inhibition synergistically potentiates the therapeutic efficacies of FDA-approved BCL2 antagonist ABT-199, in part due to suppression of MCL1 expression, both in MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma cells and in patient-derived xenografts. These findings identify disruption of the MYCN-SEC regulatory axis as a promising therapeutic strategy in neuroblastoma.

Project description:Purpose: Identify new targets in MYCN-amplified Neuroblastoma Methods: Kelly and LAN-1 neuroblastoma cells were treated in duplicate with 2 uM GSK126 (Excess Biosciences M60071-2) or DMSO for 2 or 5 days. RNA was extracted from cells with the RNeasy Kit (Qiagen). RNA libraries were prepared for sequencing using standard Illumina protocols. The pool of sixteen samples was sequenced on two lanes of an Illumina HiSeq, generating single end reads of 32-76 bp length. Transcript abundance (reads and FPKM scores) at GRCh37/hg19 RefSeq gene level was computed with the Feature Counts method implemented in the Bioconductor v3.2 Rsubread package (Liao et al., 2014). Results: Pharmacological suppression of EZH2 inhibited neuroblastoma growth. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that EZH2 serves a PRC2-dependent function in neuroblastoma, repressing neural differentiation. Moreover, EZH2-regulated genes were strongly repressed in MYCN-amplified and high risk primary tumors. These observations demonstrate that MYCN upregulates EZH2 leading to inactivation of a tumor suppressor program in neuroblastoma. Conclusion: Our study supports testing EZH2 inhibitors in patients with MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma.

Project description:MYCN amplification (MNA) is a defining feature of high-risk neuroblastoma (NB) that predicts poor prognosis. However, whether genes within or in close proximity to the MYCN amplicon also contribute to aggressiveness in MNA+ NB remains poorly understood. Here we identify that GREB1, a transcription factor encoding gene neighboring the MYCN locus, is frequently co-expressed with MYCN, and promotes cell survival in MNA+ NB. GREB1 controls gene expression independently of MYCN in MNA+ NB, among which we uncover Myosin 1B (MYO1B) as being highly expressed in MNA+ NB. MYO1B promotes aggressive features, including invasive capacity in vitro, as well as extravasation and distant metastasis in vivo. Global secretome and proteome profiling further delineate MYO1B as a major regulator of secretome reprogramming in MNA+ NB cells. Moreover, we identify the cytokine MIF as an important pro-invasive and pro-metastatic mediator of MYO1B activity. Together, we have identified a putative GREB1-MYO1B-MIF axis as an unconventional mechanism that promotes the aggressiveness of MNA+ NB, and independently of MYCN. Furthermore, we find that MYO1B is upregulated in association with other oncoproteins during cellular transformation, and is dramatically increased in multiple human cancer types, suggesting a crucial role of MYO1B in cancers in addition to MNA+ NB.

Project description:In neuroblastoma, amplification of the oncogenic basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor (TF) MYCN is the defining prognosticator of high-risk disease, occurs in one-third of neuroblastoma, and drastically reduces overall survival rates. As a proto-oncogene, targeted MYCN overexpression in peripheral neural crest is sufficient to initiate disease in mouse models. In MYCN amplified neuroblastoma, elevated expression of the factor is crucial to maintain tumor stemness and is associated with increased proliferation and aberrant cell cycle progression, as these tumors lack the ability to arrest in G1 in response to irradiation. MYCN down-regulation broadly reverses these oncogenic phenotypes in a variety of neuroblastoma models and recent thereapeutic strategies to indirectly target MYCN production or protein stability have reduced tumor growth in vivo. These observations motivate an investigation of MYCN binding in MYCN amplified tumors as it remains fundamentally unclear how elevated levels of the factor occupy the genome and alter transcriptional programs in neuroblastoma. Here we present the first dynamic chromatin and transcriptional landscape of direct MYCN perturbation in neuroblastoma. We find that at oncogenic levels, MYCN associates with E-box (CANNTG) binding motifs in an affinity dependent manner across most active cis-regulatory promoters and enhancers. MYCN shutdown globally reduces histone acetylation and transcription, consistent with prior descriptions of MYC proteins as non-linear amplifiers of gene expression. We establish that MYCN load at the promoter and proximal enhancers predicts transcriptional responsiveness to MYCN shutdown and that MYCN enhancer binding occurs prominently at the most strongly occupied and down-regulated genes, suggesting a role for these tissue specific elements in predicating MYCN responsive âtargetâ genes. At these invaded enhancers, we identify the lineage specific bHLH TWIST1 as a key collaborator and dependency of oncogenic MYCN. These data suggest that MYCN enhancer invasion helps shape transcriptional amplification of the neuroblastoma gene expression program to promote tumorigenesis.

Project description:Neuroblastoma (NB) is a childhood cancer in which the MYCN amplification is the most acknowledged marker of poor prognosis. MYCN-amplified NB cells showed to rely on both glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation system (OXPHOS) for energy production . Previously, we revealed that a ketogenic diet (KD) slowed the tumor growth in MYCN NB xenografts, when combined with classical cytotoxic therapy cyclophosphamide (CP). Metformin (MET) is a compound that targets complex I of the OXPHOS system. Therefore, the aim of this study was to elucidate whether MET can enhance the anti-tumorigenic effects of a KD in NB. Our result indicated that MET decreasedcell proliferation andrespiration in NB cells in vitro. The combination of KD, MET and low dose of chemotherapyreduced also the tumor growth and improved survival in NB xenografts. GO enrichment analysis revealed fatty acid ß-oxidation as the most upregulated process resulting from the addition of MET to KD. The differential expression of CPT1A and of its direct regulator ACC might determine an unbalanced redox state and dictate the anti-tumor effect of the combination therapy in MYCN-amplified xenografts.
