Project description:A central challenge in human cancer therapy is the identification of pathways that control tumor cell survival and chemosensitivity in the absence of functional p53. The p53-related transcription factors p63 and p73 exhibit distinct, p53-independent roles in development and cancer: p73 promotes genome stability and mediates chemosensitivity, while p63 largely lacks these p53-like functions and instead promotes proliferation and cell survival. Here, we identify a new and physiologically important mechanism of p63/p73 cross-talk which governs the balance between pro-survival and pro-apoptotic programs in both human and murine squamous cell carcinoma. Through comprehensive profiling of p63-regulated microRNAs (miRs), we identified a subset which target p73 for inhibition, including miR-193a-5p, a direct endogenous transcriptional target repressed by p63 and activated by pro-apoptotic p73 isoforms in both normal cells and tumor cells in vivo. Consequently, chemotherapy treatment causes p63/p73-dependent induction of this miR, thereby limiting chemosensitivity due to miR-mediated feedback control of p73. We demonstrate that interrupting this feedback by inhibiting miR-193a suppresses tumor cell viability and induces dramatic chemosensitivity both in vitro and in vivo. Thus, we have identified a direct, miR-dependent regulatory circuit mediating inducible chemoresistance, whose inhibition provides a new therapeutic opportunity in p53-deficient tumors.

Project description:The integral role of p53 in tumor suppression has promted many laboratories to perform extensive analyses of signaling pathways downstream of the p53 family of sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factors (p53 and its homologs p63 and p73). Despite the ability of p73 to regulate many p53 family target genes, little is known about the specific pathways that modulate p73 during development, tumorigenesis and tumor therapy. In this study we present a gene signature-based approach for connecting signaling pathways to transcription factors, as exemplified by p73. We generated a p73 gene signature by integrating whole-genome chromatin immunoprecipitation and expression profiling. Experiment Overall Design: H1299 lung carcinoma cells were infected with p73 expressing or control adenovirus for 5 h and then harvested.

Project description:The p53 tumor suppressor belongs to a gene family that includes two other structurally and functionally related members: p63 and p73. However, the regulation of p53 activity differs significantly from that of p73 and p63. To enhance the tumor suppressive activity of p53, we created a p63/p53 hybrid molecule, named p63-53O, which comprises the transcriptional activation and DNA-binding domains of TAp63? and the oligomerization domain of p53. In this study, we generated a series of p63-53O derivatives and developed an advanced hybrid molecule named “Super Hybrid p53 (SHp53).” SHp53 efficiently transactivated several proapoptotic genes, including CASP10, KCNK3, and PYCARD, compared with p53. Moreover, the silencing of these proapoptotic genes partially abolished the apoptotic response to SHp53 in human cancer cells. The potency of SHp53 for suppressing tumorigenesis was also evaluated using in vivo models. Thus, our results identify a better p63/p53 hybrid molecule for the development of anti-cancer therapies. HuH-7 human hepatocellular carcinoma cells were either transduced with adenoviral vectors expressing p53, TAp63gamma, p53-p63 hybrid (super hybrid p53 version 2, p63-53O-FL), or lacZ. After 24 hours, total RNA was isolated and analyzed by hybridization to Agilent-028004 SurePrint G3 Human GE 8x60K Microarray.
