Project description:Nrf2-Keap1 signaling pathway protects cells against photo-oxidative stress. Yet in recent works, its role in melanogenesis together with cell protection functions against oxidative stress has been gaining interest. However, its effect on melanogenesis still has contradictory results from different studies. The aims of our study were to investigate the effect of Keap1 silencing in melanocyte on melanogenesis and its associated mechanism. Primary human epidermal melanocytes and melan-a cell line were used for this experiment. RNA sequencing was done to identify genes involved in melanocyte biology using Keap1 knockdown through siRNA techniques. And melanogenesis and the expression of melanogenesis-associated molecules were evaluated in Keap1 silenced melanocyte to examine the effects of Keap1 on melanogenesis, melanocyte growth, and related pathways. RNA-sequencing data revealed that Keap1 knockdown in primary human epidermal melanocytes (PHEMs) induced cell survival-related gene expression. Additionally, siRNA-mediated inhibition of Keap1 led to upregulation of MITF and melanogenesis-associated molecules along with Nrf2 activation in PHEMs. HO-1, a major gene that is upregulated in RNA-sequencing using Keap1-silenced PHEMs, protected melanocytes against H2O2-induced cell death and upregulated MITF and β-catenin expression. Further, increased expression of melanogenesis-associated molecules after Keap1 silencing was validated to occur through HO-1-associated β-catenin activation in a Keap1 and HO-1 double knockdown experiment. This work suggests that Keap1 silencing in melanocytes induced melanogenesis and the expression of melanogenesis-associated molecules through HO-1-associated β-catenin activation. Keap1 downregulation in melanocytes is important for cell proliferation and survival.

Project description:Dickkopf 1 (DKK1), which is expressed at high mRNA levels by fibroblasts in the dermis of human skin on the palms and soles, inhibits the function and proliferation of melanocytes in the epidermis of those areas via the suppression of beta-catenin and microphthalmia-associated transcriptor factor (MITF). In this study, we report that treatment of keratinocytes with DKK1 increases their proliferation and decreases their uptake of melanin, and that treatment of reconstructed skin with DKK1 induces a thicker and less pigmented epidermis. We investigated the effects of DKK1 on keratinocytes using DNA microarray technology. Keywords: compound treatment design

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying CRC progression remain to be further defined to improve patient outcomes. In this study, we found that KCTD9, a member of the potassium channel tetramerization domain-containing (KCTD) gene family, was commonly downregulated in CRC tissues and that KCTD9 expression was negatively correlated with the clinical CRC stage. Survival analysis showed that patients whose tumors expressed low KCTD9 levels had poorer outcomes. Functional analyses revealed that KCTD9 overexpression inhibited CRC cell proliferation and metastasis, whereas KCTD9 knockdown promoted CRC cell proliferation and metastasis in both in vitro and in vivo models. Manipulating KCTD9 levels in CRC cells via overexpression or knockdown showed KCTD9 expression positively influenced the degradation of β-catenin levels leading to inhibition of Wnt signaling and reductions in Wnt pathway target gene expression. Mechanistically, we found KCTD9 associated with ZNT9 (Zinc Transporter 9), a coactivator of β-catenin-mediated gene transcription. The overexpression of KCTD9 or knockdown of ZNT9 in CRC cells increased the polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of β-catenin. In turn, the KCTD9-ZNT9 interaction disrupted interactions between β-catenin and ZNT9, thereby leading to decreased β-catenin target gene expression and the inhibition of Wnt signaling. In conclusion, our findings propose that KCTD9 functions as a tumor suppressor that inhibits CRC cell proliferation and metastasis by inactivating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Moreover, its frequent downregulation in CRC suggests KCTD9 as a potential prognostic and therapeutic target in CRC.

Project description:Deregulation of canonical Wnt/beta-catenin pathway is one of the earliest events in the pathogenesis of colon cancer. Mutations in APC or CTNNB1 (beta-catenin gene) are highly frequent in colon cancer and cause aberrant stabilization of b-catenin, which activates the transcription of Wnt target genes by binding to chromatin via the TCF/LEF transcription factors. Here we report an integrative analysis of genome-wide chromatin occupancy of b-catenin by chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) and gene expression profiling by microarray analysis upon RNAi-mediated knockdown of beta-catenin in colon cancer cells (GSE53656). Immunoprecipitated samples from human colon cancer SW480 cells with antibodies against beta-catenin and control IgG respectively were used for ChIP-seq experiments.

Project description:Occurrence of Colorectal cancer（CRC）is relevant with gut microbiota. However, role of IRF3, a key signaling mediator in innate immune sensing, has been barely investigated in CRC. Here, we unexpectedly found that the IRF3 deficient mice are hyper-susceptible to the development of intestinal tumor in AOM/DSS and Apcmin/+ models. Genetic ablation of IRF3 profoundly promotes the proliferation of intestinal epithelial cells via aberrantly activating Wnt signaling. Mechanically, IRF3 in resting state robustly associates with the active β-catenin in the cytoplasm, thus preventing its nuclear translocation and cell proliferation, which can be relieved upon microbe-induced activation of IRF3. In accordance, the survival of CRC is clinically correlated with the expression level of IRF3. Therefore, our study identifies IRF3 as a negative regulator of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and a potential prognosis marker for Wnt-related tumorigenesis, and describes an intriguing link between gut microbiota and CRC via the IRF3-β-catenin axis.

In this study, we investigated the effects of DKK1 on melanocyte gene expression profiles and on Wnt signaling pathways using DNA microarray technology. Paired cDNA samples, labeled by cyanine 3- and cyanine 5-dUTP incorporation (Qiagen, Valencia, CA) during reverse transcription (Qiagen), were hybridized simultaneously with one oligo-DNA chip (HS-Operon V2vB2.2p13) as per NCI in-house protocol (available at http://mach1.nci.nih.gov/). Two fluorescent intensities of the oligo-DNA chip were scanned using a microarray scanner (GenePix 4000A, Axon Instruments, Inc., Molecular Device Corp., Sunnyvale, CA).
