Project description:To detect dysregulated genes upon overexpression of the functional smad suppressing element (fuss) in Drosophila melanogaster, we overexpressed fuss with the GMR-Gal4 line in developing eye discs and with the nub-Gal4 driverline in developing wing discs. The offspring of crossings of the driver lines GMR-Gal4 or nub-Gal4 with w1118 were used as controls. Libraries were generated from total RNA and sequenced on a Illumina HiSeq 1000. Via differential gene expression analysis we discovered the genes which are dysregulated by fuss overexpression compared to controls.

Project description:Over the years Ski and Sno have been found to be involved in cancer progression e.g. in oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma, melanoma, oestrogen receptor-positive breast carcinoma, colorectal carcinoma, and leukaemia. Often, their prooncogenic features have been linked to their ability of inhibiting the anti-proliferative action of TGF-ß signalling. Recently, not only pro-oncogenic but also anti-oncogenic functions of Ski/Sno proteins have been revealed. Besides Ski and Sno, which are ubiquitously expressed other members of Ski/Sno proteins exist which show highly specific neuronal expression, the SKI Family Transcriptional Corepressors (Skor). Among others Skor1 and Skor2 are involved in the development of Purkinje neurons and a mutation of Skor1 has been found to be associated with restless legs syndrome. But neither Skor1 nor Skor2 have been reported to be involved in cancer progression. Using overexpression studies in the Drosophila eye imaginal disc, we analysed if the Drosophila Skor homologue Fuss has retained the potential to inhibit differentiation and induce increased proliferation. Fuss expressed in cells posterior to the morphogenetic furrow, impairs photoreceptor axon pathfinding and inhibits differentiation of accessory cells. However, if its expression is induced prior to eye differentiation, Fuss might inhibit the differentiating function of Dpp signalling and might maintain proliferative action of Wg signalling, which is reminiscent of the Ski/Sno protein function in cancer.

Project description:SKI is a transcriptional co-regulator and overexpressed in various human tumors, for example in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). SKI contributes to the origin and maintenance of the leukemic phenotype. Here we use ChIP-seq and RNA-seq to identify the epigenetic alterations induced by SKI overexpression in AML cells. We show that approximately two thirds of differentially expressed genes are up-regulated upon SKI deletion, of which nearly 50% harbour SKI binding sites in their proximity, primarily in enhancer regions. Gene ontology analysis reveals that many of the differentially expressed genes are annotated to hematopoietic cell differentiation and inflammatory response, corroborating our finding that SKI deletion causes a release of the myeloid differentiation block in HL60 cells. We find that SKI peaks are enriched for RUNX1 consensus motifs, particularly in up-regulated SKI targets. RUNX1 ChIP-seq demonstrates that nearly 70% of RUNX1 binding sites overlap with SKI peaks, mainly at enhancer regions. SKI and RUNX1 co-occupy the same genomic sites and cooperate in gene silencing. Our work demonstrates for the first time on a genome-wide scale the predominant co-repressive function of SKI in AML cells and uncovers the transcription factor RUNX1 as an important mediator of SKI-dependent transcriptional repression.

Project description:Wilm’s tumor(WT) is the most common malignant renal tumor in children, representing approximately 6-14% of all childhood cancers and about 95% of all pediatric renal malignancies. SKI-5C is a newly developed Sphk1 inhibitor. This small molecular inhibitor was firstly reported at 2009 by Wang et al. This study investigated the antitumor activity of SKI-5C in SK-NEP-1 cells. SKI-5C inhibited cell proliferation of SK-NEP-1 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Annexin V, Tunel and Hochest 33342 staining analysis showed that SKI-5C-treated cells showed more apoptotic features compared with the control.

Project description:Whole transcriptome for SKI knock-out and control HL60 cells was sequenced. SKI control and knockout samples were compared to find differentially expressed genes. Differentially expressed genes were further analysed to find the significance of SKI in HL60 cells.

Project description:While c-Src is infrequently mutated in human cancers, it mediates oncogenic signals of many activated growth factor receptors and thus remains a key potential target of cancer therapy. However, the widespread function of Src in many cell types and processes requires evaluation of Src-targeted therapeutics within a normal developmental and immune competent environment. In an effort to direct clinical use of Src inhibitors, we tested the effectiveness of one of the four Src inhibitors in clinical testing, SKI-606 (bosutinib), in the MMTV-PyVmT transgenic mouse model of breast cancer. Tumor formation in this model is dependent on the presence of Src, but the necessity of Src kinase activity for tumor formation has not been determined. Furthermore, Src inhibitors have not been examined in an autochthonous tumor model. Here we show that oral administration of the Src inhibitor SKI-606 inhibited the phosphorylation of Src in mammary tumors, and caused a rapid decrease in the Ezh2 Polycomb group histone H3K27 methyltransferase and an increase in epithelial organization. SKI-606 prevented the appearance of palpable tumors in more than half of the animals treated from puberty and stopped tumor growth in older animals with preexisting tumors. These antitumor effects were accompanied by decreased cellular proliferation, altered tumor blood vessel organization and dramatically increased differentiation to lactational and epidermal cell fates. SKI-606 controls the development of mammary tumors in this model by inducing differentiation. Differentiation of Mammary Tumors by SKI-606 (bostutinib)
