Project description:Metastatic prostate cancer (PCa) is a terminal disease and establishment of novel therapeutic strategy specifically targeting metastasis is critically required for its management. This study was aimed at identifying metastasis-driving genes which could potentially be therapeutic targets for metastatic prostate cancer. Integrative analysis of gene expression profiles from a pair of metastatic and non-metastatic prostate cancer tissue xenografts was used to identify potential prostate cancer metastasis-driving genes. Among the candidate genes found, GATA2, a master regulator gene in the development of hematopoietic system, was particularly interesting since it is an important pioneer factor in the regulation of AR-target gene in prostate cancer. In consistent with our finding, elevated expression of the GATA2 gene in metastatic prostate cancers was found and its expression was significantly correlated with poor prognosis in prostate cancer patients. Furthermore, indication of the GATA2 gene maybe the metastasis-driving gene was evidenced in decreased of cell migration, tissue invasion and focal adhesion disassembly in GATA2-down-regulated LNCaP cells. Global gene expression analysis after silencing of the GATA2 gene revealed a significant changed in cell transcriptomes with ~ 2500 genes with > 2 fold mRNA level changed and FDR <0.05, indicates that GATA2 plays a critical role in cell reprogramming as pioneer factor in the development of prostate cancer metastasis. LNCaP human prostate cancer cells transiently knockdown with siRNA that specifically targeting GATA2 (siGATA2) or scrambled siRNA (sicontrol). RNAs were isolated from cells after 72 hours of incubation. Gene expression profiles of four biological replicates from each sample group were analyzed to identify differentially regulated downstream genes after knockdown of GATA2.

Project description:Kynureninase is a member of a large family of catalytically diverse but structurally homologous pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) dependent enzymes known as the aspartate aminotransferase superfamily or alpha-family. The Homo sapiens and other eukaryotic constitutive kynureninases preferentially catalyze the hydrolytic cleavage of 3-hydroxy-l-kynurenine to produce 3-hydroxyanthranilate and l-alanine, while l-kynurenine is the substrate of many prokaryotic inducible kynureninases. The human enzyme was cloned with an N-terminal hexahistidine tag, expressed, and purified from a bacterial expression system using Ni metal ion affinity chromatography. Kinetic characterization of the recombinant enzyme reveals classic Michaelis-Menten behavior, with a Km of 28.3 +/- 1.9 microM and a specific activity of 1.75 micromol min-1 mg-1 for 3-hydroxy-dl-kynurenine. Crystals of recombinant kynureninase that diffracted to 2.0 A were obtained, and the atomic structure of the PLP-bound holoenzyme was determined by molecular replacement using the Pseudomonas fluorescens kynureninase structure (PDB entry 1qz9) as the phasing model. A structural superposition with the P. fluorescens kynureninase revealed that these two structures resemble the "open" and "closed" conformations of aspartate aminotransferase. The comparison illustrates the dynamic nature of these proteins' small domains and reveals a role for Arg-434 similar to its role in other AAT alpha-family members. Docking of 3-hydroxy-l-kynurenine into the human kynureninase active site suggests that Asn-333 and His-102 are involved in substrate binding and molecular discrimination between inducible and constitutive kynureninase substrates.

Project description:Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) play an important role in cancer progression and have been implicated to play a role in prostate cancer. However, TAMs in osteogenic prostate cancer bone metastasis have not been characterized. Here we used a novel osteogenic MycCaP-BMP4 model to study the unique cellular and molecular mechanisms in driving the tumor progression in osteogenic prostate cancer metastasis.
