Loss of enteric neuronal Ndrg4 promotes colorectal cancer via increased release of Nid1 and Fbln2

ABSTRACT: The N-Myc Downstream-Regulated Gene 4 (NDRG4), a prominent biomarker for colorectal cancer (CRC), is specifically expressed by enteric neurons. Considering that nerves are important members of the tumor microenvironment, we here establish different Ndrg4 knockout (Ndrg4-/-) CRC models and an in-direct co-culture of primary enteric nervous system (ENS) cells and intestinal organoids to identify whether the ENS, via NDRG4, affects intestinal tumorigenesis. Linking immunostainings and gastrointestinal motility (GI) assays, we show that absence of Ndrg4 does not trigger any functional or morphological GI-abnormalities. However, combining in vivo, in vitro and quantitative proteomics data, we uncover that Ndrg4 knockdown is associated with enlarged intestinal adenoma development and that organoid growth is boosted by the Ndrg4-/- ENS cell secretome, which is enriched for Nidogen-1 (Nid1) and Fibulin-2 (Fbln2). Moreover, NID1 and FBLN2 are expressed in enteric neurons, enhance tumorigenic capacities of CRC cells and are enriched in human CRC secretomes. Hence, we provide evidence that the ENS, via loss of Ndrg4, is involved in colorectal pathogenesis and that ENS-derived Nidogen-1 and Fibulin-2 enhance colorectal carcinogenesis.

CIP2A-TOPBP1 Interaction in Human Mitotic Cells

Project description:We investigate the implications of DNA double strand breaks in the human genome, regarding the progression and treatment of various cancer types. During mitosis, the canonical DNA repair mechanisms are suspended while broken chromosomes get temporarily stabilized through so-called adapter proteins. We already knew that TOPBP1 is involved in that process and recently, we identified another Protein which recruits TOPBP1 to sites of damage. After mapping the interaction site on TOPBP1 we attempted to pull down CIP2A using a fragment of the binding domain, followed by chromatography-tandem-mass spectrometry analysis, the results of which we share in this upload.

Multi-layered proteomic analysis for colorectal cancer

Project description:Matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) plays a role in cell migration and invasion that involve degradation of extracellular matrix proteins as well as vascular remodeling. Increased expression of MMP-2 has often been observed in the tumors of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. In order to unveil the perturbed proteomic signal during MMP-2-induced cancer progression, we analyzed MMP-2 dependent secretome change in HCT116 cancer cells by stable isotopic labeling with amino acids in cell culture (SILAC), together with the plasma proteome profile of CRC patients by label-free quantification according to disease progression from TNM stage I to IV. We also analyzed public database of CRC tissue proteome deposited by Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (NCI/NIH). As a strategy for integrating the multi-layered proteomes, we first performed unsupervised hierarchical clustering on plasma and tissue proteomes according to TNM stage, and then Fisher’s exact test to find out which clusters were significantly represented by the secretome decreased by more than 1.5-fold upon MMP-2 knock down. The resultant cluster included CD9-ITGB1-ITGA7 protein complex as well as MMP-2. The proteins included in this cluster were mostly related to cell-cell communications and cell motility, and showed remarkable increased expression in tissue and plasma upon disease progression from TNM I to II. MMP-2 induced activation of FAK phospho-signaling in an activity-dependent manner. With the comparative and integrative multi-layered proteomic analysis, we suggest that high invasiveness featured in the disease progression of colorectal cancer with increased secretion of MMP-2 is because MMP-2 activates FAK signaling through CD9-integrin complex and consequently induces positive feedback of MMP-2 upregulation.

Down-regulation of collagen hydroxylation in colorectal liver metastasis

Project description:Collagen, a major component of the extracellular matrix, is significantly upregulated in colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM) compared to liver tissue. Expression levels of specific collagen types in CRLM resemble those in colorectal cancer (CRC) and colon tissue. We investigated whether the collagen hydroxylation pattern from the primary tumor also migrates with the metastatic tumor. The degree of collagen alpha-1(I) hydroxylation in colon, CRC, liver, and CRLM tissue in the same individuals (n=14) was studied with mass spectrometry. The degree of hydroxylation was investigated in 36 collagen alpha-1(I) peptides, which covered 54% of the triple helical region. The average degree of hydroxylation in liver tissue was similar to that in colon tissue. The overall degree of hydroxylation was significantly lower (9% +/- 14%) in CRC tissue and also significantly lower (12% +/-22%) in CRLM tissue compared to colon or liver tissue. Still, in previous research of liver and CRLM enzymes involved in collagen hydroxylation were found to be upregulated, whereas P4HB (4-prolyl hydroxylase beta unit) was downregulated. Furthermore, 11 peptides are present with a specific number of hydroxylations that are significantly different between CRLM and liver tissue; these peptides could be candidates for the detection of CRLM. For one of these eleven peptides, a matching naturally occurring peptide in urine has been identified as being significantly different between patients suffering from CRLM and healthy controls. We conclude that the degree of hydroxylation in CRC and CRLM tumor tissue is in general significantly downregulated in comparison to healthy colon and liver tissue. The hydroxylation pattern in CRLM resemble partly the pattern in liver, primary colorectal cancer and colon.

Proteomic analysis of the secretome of Schistocephalus solidus LC-MS/MS

Project description:Schistocephalus solidus is a cestode parasite that is thought to manipulate the behaviour of its threespine stickleback host Gasterosteus aculeatus. It has been hypothesized that the worm could liberate in its external environment “manipulation factors” that would ultimately interfere with the host’s physiology and behaviour. The objective of this project is to describe the whole proteomic content of the proteome and of the secretome of a putative manipulative parasite, Schistocephalus solidus, with the aim to identify proteins that could be involved in the behavioural perturbations of the threespine stickleback.

Enteric glia express proteolipid protein 1 and are a transcriptionally unique population of glia in the mammalian nervous system

Project description:To identify the gene expression profile of enteric glia and assess the transcriptional similarity between enteric and extraenteric glia, we performed RNA sequencing analysis on PLP1-expressing cells in the mouse intestine. This analysis shows that enteric glia are transcriptionally unique and distinct from other cell types in the nervous system. Enteric glia express many genes characteristic of the myelinating glia, Schwann cells and oli- godendrocytes, although there is no evidence of myelination in the murine ENS. Total RNA expression profiles of PLP1 expressing enteric glial cells (GFP+) and non-glial cells (GFP-negative) were obtained from the ileum and colon of juvenile PLP1-eGFP transgenic mice.

The Pseudomonas fluorescens Crc affects the length of the transition phase during diauxic growth

Project description:Pseudomonads, unlike enteric bacteria, prefer to utilize tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates over glucose. The crc gene has been implicated to impart repression on glucose and other metabolic enzymes in various Pseudomonas species when grown in a mixture of glucose and various organic acids. The crc gene of P. fluorescens strain MB101 has been identified and a crc deletion derivative was constructed. Unlike a crc mutant of P. aeruginosa described earlier, the P. fluorescens ïcrc did not begin to catabolize glucose until most of the succinate has been utilized in a medium containing both carbon sources. The transition phase during diauxic growth in succinate/glucose media was found to be shorter in a strain lacking crc and considerably longer in a strain overproducing Crc as compared to the wild type. DNA microarray analyses were performed with wild-type and crc mutant strains during the transition phase from succinate to glucose. In the wild-type strain, high expression signals were obtained for genes normally induced in cells that approach or are in stationary phase. By contrast, ïcrc cells showed higher expression signals for genes associated with rapid growth than the wild-type strain. Taken together, this data indicates that Crc influences the length of the lag during the transition phase from succinate to glucose by directly or indirectly affecting the mRNA levels of target genes. Keywords: time course strain comparison These are time course experiments to compare crc mutant strain to the wildtype MB101 strain at 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 ht time points. Dye swaps were included in each time point comparison. There are 10 pairs in total.

Tendon tissue degradome in response to the patho-physiological niche

Project description:Aberrant matrix turnover with elevated matrix proteolysis is a hallmark of tendon pathology. While tendon disease mechanisms remain obscure, mechanical cues are central regulators. Unloading of tendon explants in standard culture conditions provokes rapid cell-mediated tissue breakdown. Here we show that biological response to tissue unloading depends on the mimicked physiological context. Our experiments reveal that explanted tendon tissues remain functionally stable in a simulated avascular niche of low temperature and oxygen, regardless of the presence of serum. This hyperthermic and hyperoxic niche-dependent catabolic switch was shown by whole transcriptome analysis (RNA-seq) to be a strong pathological driver of an immune-modulatory phenotype, with a stress response to reactive oxygen species (ROS) and associated activation of catabolic extracellular matrix proteolysis that involved lysosomal activation and transcription of a range of proteolytic enzymes. Secretomic and degradomic analysis through terminal amine isotopic labeling of substrates (TAILS) confirmed that proteolytic activity in unloaded tissues was strongly niche dependent. Through targeted pharmacological inhibition we isolated ROS mediated oxidative stress as a major checkpoint for matrix proteolysis. We conclude from these data that the tendon stromal compartment responds to traumatic mechanical unloading in a manner that is highly dependent on the extrinsic niche, with oxidative stress response gating the proteolytic breakdown of the functional collagen backbone.

Differential regulation of extracellular matrix proteins in three recurrent liver metastases of a single patient with colorectal cancer

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) patients suffer from the second highest mortality among all cancer entities. In half of all CRC patients, colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) can be observed. Metastatic colorectal cancer is associated with poor overall survival and limited treatment options. Even after successful surgical resection of the primary tumor, metachronous liver metastases occur in one out of eight cases. The only available curative intended treatment is hepatic resection, but metachronous CRLM frequently recur after approximately one year. In this study, we performed a proteome analysis of three recurrent liver metastases of a single CRC patient by mass spectrometry. Despite surgical resection of the primary CRC and adjuvant chemotherapy plus cetuximab treatment, the patient developed three metachronous CRLM which occurred consecutively after 9, 21 and 31 months. We identified a set of 1,132 proteins expressed in the three metachronous CRLM, of which 481 were differentially regulated, including 81 proteins that were associated with the extracellular matrix (ECM). 56 ECM associated proteins were identified as upregulated in the third metastasis, 26 (46%) of which were previously described as negative prognostic markers in CRC, including tenascin C, nidogen 1, fibulin1 and vinculin. These data may reflect an ascending trend of malignancy from the first to the third metachronous colorectal cancer liver metastasis. Additionally, the results indicate different ECM phenotypes for recurrent metachronous metastasis, associated with different grades of malignancy and highlights the importance of individual analysis of molecular features in different, consecutive metastatic events in a single patient.

Soybean seed germination LC-MS/MS

Project description:This study aims at addressing soybean seeds (variety Absolute RR) germination, at 48h, during optimal and salt stressed condition when treated with bacterial signal compounds lipo-chitooligosaccharide (LCO) and thuricin 17 (Th17). Soybean growth is negatively affected when exposed to 40 mM NaCl and exposure to 80 mM NaCl is often lethal. When treated with the bacterial signal compounds lipo-chitooligosaccharide (LCO) and thuricin 17 (Th17), soybean seeds (variety Absolute RR) responded positively at salt stress of up to 150 mM NaCl. Shotgun proteomics of unstressed and 100 mM NaCl stressed seeds (48 h) in combination with the LCO and Th17 revealed many known, predicted, hypothetical and unknown proteins. In all, carbon, nitrogen and energy metabolic pathways were affected under both unstressed and salt stressed conditions when treated with signals. PEP carboxylase, Rubisco oxygenase large subunit, pyruvate kinase, and isocitrate lyase were some of the noteworthy proteins enhanced by the signals, along with antioxidant glutathione-S-transferase and other stress related proteins. These findings suggest that the germinating seeds alter their proteome based on bacterial signals and on stress, the specificity of this response plays a crucial role in organ maturation and transition from one stage to another in the plants life cycle; understanding this response is of fundamental importance in agriculture and, as a result, global food security.

Arabidopsis rosettes proteome in response to LCO and Th17 under salt stress- LC-MS/MS

Project description:Lipo-chitooligosaccharide (LCO) and thuricin 17 (Th17) are two bacterial compounds that have been shown to positively influence plant growth of both legumes and non-legumes. Arabidopsis thaliana responded positively to treatment with the bacterial signal compounds LCO and Th17 in the presence of salt stress (up to 250 mM NaCl). Shotgun proteomics of unstressed and 250 mM NaCl stressed A. thaliana rosettes (7 days post stress) in combination with the LCO and Th17 revealed many known, putative, hypothetical and unknown proteins. Overall, carbon and energy metabolic pathways were affected under both unstressed and salt stressed conditions when treated with these signals. PEP carboxylase, Rubisco-oxygenase large subunit, pyruvate kinase, and proteins of photosystem I and II were some of the noteworthy proteins enhanced by the signals, along with other stress related proteins. These findings suggest that the proteome of A. thaliana rosettes is altered by the bacterial signals tested, and more so under salt stress, thereby imparting a positive effect on plant growth under high salt stress. The roles of the identified proteins are discussed here in relation to salt stress adaptation, which, when translated to field grown crops can be a crucial component and of significant importance in agriculture and global food production.
