Project description:Ewing sarcomas harbor few mutations beyond the chromosomal translocation that initiates disease and the mechanistic basis for the metastasis of these tumors remains poorly understood. The epigenome of Ewing sarcoma (EWS) cells reflects the regulatory state of genes associated with the DNA binding activity of the fusion oncoproteins EWSR1::FLI1 or EWSR1::ERG. In this study, we examined the repressive activities of the EWSR1::FLI1/ERG fusion oncoproteins. Focusing on one of the repressed EWSR1::FLI1/ERG target genes, ETS1, we detected EWSR1::FLI1 binding and a H3K27me3 repressive mark at this locus. Depletion of EWSR1::FLI1 results in ETS1’s binding of promoter regions, and we show ETS1 regulates the expression of multiple proteins that function in extracellular matrix organization including TENSIN3 (TNS3). Interestingly, TNS3 expression in EWS tumors significantly correlates with that of ETS1 (0.85, FDR <0.01). TNS3 is a focal adhesion protein that contributes to tumor cell migration by connecting the cytoplasmic tail of integrins to the actin cytoskeleton. EWS cell lines, in which we activated ETS1 expression (CRISPRa) exhibited increased TNS3 expression and a migratory phenotype. Critically, the activated ETS1 EWS cell lines show TNS3 accumulation at leading cell edges, with F-actin cytoskeletal reorganization, a phenotype associated with cell migration.

Project description:The differentiation of oligodendroglia from oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) to complex and extensive myelinating oligodendrocytes (OLs) is a multistep process that involves largescale morphological changes with significant strain on the cytoskeleton. While key chromatin and transcriptional regulators of differentiation have been identified, their target genes responsible for the morphological changes occurring during OL myelination are still largely unknown. Here, we show that the regulator of focal adhesion, Tensin3 (Tns3), is a direct target gene of Olig2, Chd7, and Chd8, transcriptional regulators of OL differentiation. Tns3 is transiently upregulated and localized to cell processes of immature OLs, together with integrin-b1, a key mediator of survival at this transient stage. Constitutive Tns3 loss-of-function leads to reduced viability in mouse and humans, with surviving knockout mice still expressing Tns3 in oligodendroglia. Acute deletion of Tns3 in vivo, either in postnatal neural stem cells (NSCs) or in OPCs, leads to a two-fold reduction in OL numbers. We find that the transient upregulation of Tns3 is required to protect differentiating OPCs and immature OLs from cell death by preventing the upregulation of p53, a key regulator of apoptosis. Altogether, our findings reveal a specific time window during which transcriptional upregulation of Tns3 in immature OLs is required for OL differentiation likely by mediating integrin-b1 survival signaling to the actin cytoskeleton as OL undergo the large morphological changes required for their terminal differentiation.

Project description:MSC-adherent hematopoietic stem and progenotir cells (HSPC) express adhesion-associated genes at higher levels than non-adherent cells while cell-cycle and differentiation-associated genes are not significantly changed between the two cell populations. We used microarray to confirm identity of MSC-adherent and non-adherent cord blood-derived HSPCs and to exclude that cell cycle and differentiation affect adhesive capacity.

Project description:MSC-adherent hematopoietic stem and progenotir cells (HSPC) express adhesion-associated genes at higher levels than non-adherent cells while cell-cycle and differentiation-associated genes are not significantly changed between the two cell populations. We used microarray to confirm identity of MSC-adherent and non-adherent cord blood-derived HSPCs and to exclude that cell cycle and differentiation affect adhesive capacity. CD34 positive cells were isolated from human cord blood (not older than 24h), expanded for 3 days and assayed for the adhesion to MSC. The adherent and non-adherent live CD34+ cells were sorted and total RNA was extracted.

Project description:The flatworm Macrostomum lignano features a duo-gland adhesive system that allows it to repeatedly attach to and release from substrates in seawater within a minute. However, little is known about the molecules involved in this temporary adhesion. In this study, we showed that the attachment of M. lignano relieds on the secretion of two large adhesive proteins, Macrostomum lignano adhesion protein 1 (Mlig-ap1) and Mlig-ap2. We revealed that both proteins are expressed in the adhesive gland cells and that their distribution within the adhesive footprints was spatially restricted. RNA interference knock-down experiments demonstrated the essential function of these two proteins in flatworm adhesion. Negatively-charged modified sugars in the surrounding water inhibited flatworm attachment, while positively-charged molecules impeded detachment. In addition, we found that M. lignano could not adhere to strongly hydrated surfaces. We propose an attachment-release model where Mlig-ap2 attaches to the substrate and Mlig-ap1 exhibits a cohesive function. A small negatively-charged molecule is secreted that interferes with Mlig-ap1, inducing detachment. These findings are of relevance for fundamental adhesion science and efforts to mitigate biofouling. Further, this first model of flatworm temporary adhesion may serve as the starting point for the development of synthetic reversible adhesion systems for medicinal and industrial applications.

Project description:In this experiment, we generated isogenic carboplatin-resistant MDA-MB-468 cells displaying a 5x increase in IC50 in respect to the parental cell line. We set out to compare the transcriptome of these cell lines, together with MDA-MB-468 cells overexpressing a constitutively active form of beta-catenin to understand underlying transcriptional changes supporting stable carboplatin-tolerance.
