Project description:Breast cancer (BC), the most frequent tumor entity in women globally, shows a high therapeutic response in early and non-metastatic stages. However, triple-negative BC (TNBC), enriched with cancer stem cells (CSCs), presents significant challenges due to its chemoresistant and metastatic nature. Ubiquitin Specific Proteinase 22 (USP22) has emerged as a key player in promoting CSC functions, contributing to resistance to conventional therapies, tumor relapse, metastasis, and poor survival across various cancers, including BC. The specific role of USP22 in TNBC, however, remains underexplored. In this study, we employed the MMTV-cre, Usp22fl/fl transgenic mouse model to investigate USP22's influence on stem cell-like properties in mammary tissue. High-throughput transcriptomic analyses, combined with publicly available patient data and TNBC culture models, were utilized to elucidate USP22's role in CSC characteristics of TNBC. Our findings reveal that USP22 enhances CSC properties and drug tolerance by supporting oxidative phosphorylation, a key factor in the poor response to conventional therapies in aggressive BC subtypes. The study uncovers a novel tumor-supportive role of USP22 in sustaining cellular respiration, which contributes to the drug-tolerant behavior of HER2+-BC and TNBC cells. This highlights USP22 as a potential therapeutic target, offering new avenues to optimize standard treatments and address the aggressiveness of these malignancies.

Project description:BackgroundBreast cancer (BC) is the most frequent tumor entity in women worldwide with a high chance of therapeutic response in early- and non-metastatic disease stages. Among all BC subtypes, triple-negative BC (TNBC) is the most challenging cancer subtype lacking effective molecular targets due to the particular enrichment of cancer stem cells (CSCs), frequently leading to a chemoresistant phenotype and metastasis. The Ubiquitin Specific Peptidase 22 (USP22) is a deubiquitinase that has been frequently associated with a CSC-promoting function and intimately implicated in resistance to conventional therapies, tumor relapse, metastasis and overall poor survival in a broad range of cancer entities, including BC. To date, though, the role of USP22 in TNBC has been only superficially addressed.MethodsThe current study utilized the MMTV-cre, Usp22fl/fl transgenic mouse model to study the involvement of USP22 in the stem cell-like properties of the growing mammary tissue. Additionally, we combined high-throughput transcriptomic analyses with publicly available patient transcriptomic data and utilized TNBC culture models to decipher the functional role of USP22 in the CSC characteristics of this disease.ResultsInterestingly, we identified that USP22 promotes CSC properties and drug tolerance by supporting the oxidative phosphorylation program, known to be largely responsible for the poor response to conventional therapies in this particularly aggressive BC subtype.ConclusionsThis study suggests a novel tumor-supportive role of USP22 in sustaining cellular respiration to facilitate the drug-tolerant behavior of HER2+-BC and TNBC cells. Therefore, we posit USP22 as a promising therapeutic target to optimize standard therapies and combat the aggressiveness of these malignancies. Video Abstract.

Project description:Emergency hematopoiesis is a concerted response geared towards enhanced protection from infection, involving multiple cell types and developmental stages across the immune system. Despite its importance, the underlying molecular regulation remains poorly understood. The deubiquitinase USP22 regulates the levels of monoubiquitinated histone H2B (H2Bub1), which is involved in intracellular interferon responses. Here we show that, in the absence of infection or inflammation, mice lacking Usp22 in blood and immune cells display profound systemic emergency hematopoiesis, evident by increased hematopoietic stem cell proliferation, myeloid bias, and extramedullary hematopoiesis. Functionally, loss of Usp22 results in elevated phagocytosis by neutrophilic granulocytes, and enhanced innate protection against Listeria monocytogenes infection. At the molecular level, we find this state of emergency hematopoiesis associated with transcriptional signatures of myeloid priming, enhanced mitochondrial respiration, as well as innate and adaptive immunity and inflammation. Augmented inflammatory gene expression was linked to elevated locus-specific H2Bub1 levels. Collectively, a tunable epigenetic state promotes systemic emergency hematopoiesis in a cell-autonomous manner and enhances innate protection, paving potential ways towards immune enhancement.

Project description:Mouse ESCs depleted of the epigenetic modifying enzyme Usp22 fail to differentiate properly. Ectopic expresison of Usp22 results in spontaneous differnetiation. In order to understand the transcriptional program underlying this biological defect, whole genome expression analysis was performed. E14 mESCs were infected with lentivirus containing shRNA targeting Usp22 or control (Luc). RNA was extracted from both samples and subjected to expression analysis by affymetrix array.

Project description:Dynamic control of ubiquitination by deubiquitinating enzymes is essential for almost all biological processes. Ubiquitin-specific peptidase 22 (USP22) is part of the SAGA complex and catalyzes the removal of monoubiquitination from histone H2B, thereby regulating gene transcription. However, novel roles for USP22 have recently emerged, such as tumor development and cell death. Apart from apoptosis, the relevance of USP22 in other programmed cell death pathways still remains unclear. Here, we describe a novel role for USP22 in controlling necroptotic cell death in a variety of tumor cell lines. Loss of USP22 expression significantly delays TNF/Smac mimetic/zVAD.fmk (TBZ)-induced necroptosis, without affecting TNF-mediated NF-B activation or extrinsic apoptosis. Mass-spectrometric ubiquitin remnant profiling identified lysine 518 of Receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) as USP22-dependent ubiquitination target during necroptosis induction. Mutation of K518 in RIPK3 reduced necroptosisassociated RIPK3 ubiquitination and amplified necrosome formation and necroptotic cell death. In conclusion, we identify a novel role of USP22 in necroptosis and further elucidate the relevance of ubiquitination as crucial regulator of necroptotic cell death.

Project description:Somatic cells can be reprogrammed to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) by overexpressing OCT4, SOX2, KLF4 and MYC. Although this cell fate transition is a slow and inefficient process, inhibiting several epigenetic barriers has shown to facilitate it. A previously employed epigenetic focused CRISPR-Cas9-mediated knockout screen during reprogramming uncovered novel human somatic cell reprogramming barriers. Here, I showed that USP22, target for gRNAs that were enriched in iPSCs from the screen, is a barrier for reprogramming and its loss is compatible with iPSC generation. Overexpressing wild-type or deubiquitinase mutant (C185A) USP22 in knockout background could rescue the phenotype. Additionally, knocking out other SAGA deubiquitinase subunits, ENY2 and ATXN7L3 did not increase the reprogramming efficiency. Mechanistically, we showed that USP22 loss upregulates an important pluripotency-related transcription factor, SOX2, expression even as early as 3 days after OSKM expression. We hypothesized that USP22 downregulates pluripotency-related gene expression during reprogramming independent from its SAGA integration and deubiquitinase activity. To address this, I will repeat rescuing USP22 knockout phenotype in reprogramming by overexpressing mutant versions of USP22 including K129R (acetyl inhibited) and HHAA (deubiqutinase). Additionally, I will check the expression of pluripotency-related genes at early time points of reprogramming upon USP22 knockout by transcriptome profiling. Lastly, I will generate USP22 knockout iPSC lines to force them to differentiation to observe if they have any problem with pluripotency exit. This work will establish a mechanistic understanding for the role USP22 play on both human somatic cell reprogramming, pluripotency and differentiation.
