Project description:The RSK2 gene is responsible for Coffin-Lowry syndrome, an X-linked monogenic disease associating severe learning deficit andassociated to typical facial and digital abnormalities and skeletal changes. Craniofacial and dental anomalies encountered in this rare disease have been poorly characterized. In this study we explore, through X-Ray microtomographic analysis, the variable craniofacial dysmorphism and dental anomalies present in Rsk2 knockout mice, an animal model of Coffin-Lowry syndrome, as well as in triple Rsk1,2,3 knockout mutants. We report in these mutants the occurrence of a surpernumerary tooth mesial to the first molar. This highly penetrant phenotype is considered as a remnant of evolutionary lost teeth. This possibly leads to the significant reduction of the maxillary diastema. Abnormalities of molar shape were almost restricted to the mesial part of both upper and lower first molars (M1). We also report an expression analysis of the four Rsk genes (Rsk1, 2, 3 and 4) at various stages of odontogenesis in wild-type (WT) mice. Rsk2 was mainly expressed in the mesenchymal, neural crest derived compartment, correlating with proliferative areas of the developing teeth and consistent with a biological function of RSK2 in cell cycle control and cell growth, which when invalidated could be responsible for the dental phenotype. In an attempt to unravel the molecular pathways involved in the genesis of these dental defects, we performed a comparative transcriptomic (DNA microarray) analysis of mandibular wild-type versus Rsk2-/Y molars, and further demonstrated a misregulation of selected genes, using a Rsk2 shRNA knock-down strategy in molar tooth germs cultured in vitro.

Project description:Coffin–Lowry Syndrome (CLS) is a syndromic form of mental retardation caused by loss of function mutations in the X-linked RPS6KA3 gene, which encodes Rsk2, a serine/threonine kinase involved in spatial memory. We analyzed hippocampal gene expression profiles in Rsk2-KO mice to identify changes in molecular pathways. Total RNA was extracted from hippocampi from 6 KO and 6 WT (littermates) 2-month-old male mice. For each genotype, equivalent amounts of RNA from 2 mice were pooled and processed for hybridization to the genome wide oligonucleotide microarray (Murine 430A 2.0 Affymetrix, 22.000 probe sets). Thus, 3 independent pooled samples were hybridized for each genotype. We compared hippocampal gene expression profiles from rsk2-KO and normal littermate mice to identify changes in molecular pathways

Project description:RSK2 is a serine/threonine kinase downstream signaling mediator in the RAS/ERK signaling pathway and may be a therapeutic target in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). RSK2-Ser227 in the N-terminal kinase domain (NTKD) of RSK2 was found to be ubiquitously active in five MCL-derived cell lines and in tumor tissues derived from five MCL patients. BI-D1870, an inhibitor specific to RSK2-NTKD, caused RSK2-Ser227 dephosphorylation, and thereby, induced dose-dependent growth inhibition via G2/M cell cycle blockade and apoptosis. Comparative gene expression profiling of the MCL-derived cell lines showed that inhibition of RSK2-Ser227 by BI-D1870 caused downregulation of oncogenes, such c-MYC and MYB; anti-apoptosis genes, such as BCL2 and BCL2L1; genes for B cell development, including IKZF1, IKZF3 and PAX5; and genes constituting the B cell receptor signaling pathway, such as CD19, CD79B and BLNK. These findings show that targeting of RSK2-Ser227 enables concomitant blockade of pathways that are critically important in B cell tumorigenesis.

Project description:In order to better understand the process of breast cancer metastasis, we have generated a mammary epithelial progression series of increasingly aggressive cell lines that metastasize to lung. Here we demonstrate that upregulation of an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to Golgi trafficking gene signature in metastatic cells enhances transport kinetics, which promotes malignant progression. We observe increased ER-Golgi trafficking, an altered secretome and sensitivity to the retrograde transport inhibitor brefeldin A (BFA) in cells that metastasize to lung. CREB3 was identified as a transcriptional regulator of upregulated ER-Golgi trafficking genes ARF4, COPB1, and USO1, and silencing of these genes attenuated the metastatic phenotype in vitro and lung colonization in vivo. Furthermore, high trafficking gene expression significantly correlated with increased risk of distant metastasis and reduced relapse-free and overall survival in breast cancer patients, suggesting that modulation of ER-Golgi trafficking plays an important role in metastatic progression.

Project description:Radioresistance is one of the main factors that lead to the failure of radiotherapy in lung cancer patients. The mechanisms underlying these processes are, however, not fully understood. Here, we find that the low levels of FOXN3 protein is associated with poor prognosis of lung cancer patients. Furthermore, we show that depletion of FOXN3 promotes DNA damage repair and confers lung cancer radioresistance in a BRCA1-dependent manner. Mechanistically, we uncover that E3 ligase β-Trcp and protein kinase RSK2 bind to and cooperatively induce the ubiquitin-mediated degradation of FOXN3. More importantly, β-Trcp and RSK2-mediated ubiquitination of FOXN3 facilitate DNA damage repair in lung cancer. Thus, our findings reveal the molecular mechanism to control the abundance of FOXN3 in DNA damage repair, indicating that targeting β-Trcp/RSK2/FOXN3/BRCA-1 axis may be a novel radiosensitization strategy in lung cancer.
