Project description:Estrogen therapy increases the risk of ovarian cancer and exogenous estradiol accelerates the onset of ovarian cancer in mouse models. Both in vivo and in vitro, ovarian surface epithelial (OSE) cells exposed to estradiol develop a subpopulation that loses cell polarity, contact inhibition, and forms multi-layered foci of dysplastic cells with increased susceptibility to transformation. Here, we use single-cell RNA-sequencing to characterize this dysplastic subpopulation and identify the transcriptional dynamics involved in its emergence. Estradiol-treated cells were characterized by up-regulation of genes associated with proliferation, metabolism, and survival pathways. Pseudotemporal ordering revealed that OSE cells occupy a largely linear phenotypic spectrum that, in estradiol-treated cells, diverges towards cell state consistent with the dysplastic population. This divergence is characterized by the activation of various cancer-associated pathways including an increase in Greb1 which was validated in fallopian tube epithelium and human ovarian cancers. Taken together, this work reveals possible mechanisms by which estradiol increases epithelial cell susceptibility to tumour initiation.

Project description:Emerging evidence suggests that estrogen and prolactin (PRL) play a key role in prostate cancer development, yet their relationship and molecular actions in prostate is not well understood. To address this issue, we made the first direct comparison of estrogen and PRL actions in the Noble rat (NBL) prostate dysplasia model. Prostatic dysplasia in lateral prostate (DLP) has been induced by elevated circulating levels of estrogen and PRL in NBL with estrogen (E2)-filled implants, while physiological level of testosterone (T) was maintained with T-filled implants. The effect of estrogen and PRL was studied by using ICI and bromocriptine (Br) as their respective blockers, both can effectively inhibited dysplasia development under T+E2 induction. Transcript expression profile of the four treatment groups (Control, T+E2, T+E2+Br, and T+E2+ICI) has been characterized in this array.

Project description:Transcriptome profiling using Affymetrix GeneChip arrays was performed on sorted populations of Lgr5-expressing mouse ovarian surface epithelium. The ovary surface epithelium (OSE) undergoes ovulatory tear-and-remodelling throughout life. Resident stem cells drive such tissue homeostasis in many adult epithelia, but their existence in the ovary has yet to be definitively proven. Lgr5 marks stem cells in multiple epithelia. Here we use reporter mice and Single Molecule Florescent-in-Situ-Hybridization (FISH) to document candidate Lgr5+ stem cells within the mouse ovary and associated structures. Lgr5 is broadly expressed during ovary organogenesis, but becomes limited to the OSE in early neonate life. In adults, Lgr5 expression is predominantly restricted to proliferative regions of the OSE and fimbria- mesovarian junction. Using conditional in vivo lineage tracing we identify embryonic and early neonate Lgr5+ populations as stem/progenitor cells contributing to the development of adult OSE and granulosa cell lineages, as well as the epithelia of the mesovarian and oviduct including its distal opening, fimbria. Long-term lineage tracing reveals that adult OSE-resident Lgr5+ populations contribute to epithelial homeostasis and OSE regenerative repair in vivo. Thus, Lgr5 is a marker of stem/progenitor cells of the ovary and tubal epithelia. Ovarian surface epithelium from pooled batches of Lgr5-eGFP-CreERT2 mice (n=8, per array) were sorted for cells expressing either high or low EGFP. Total RNA from three technical replicates per sorted population (Lgr5-high or Lgr5-low) was extracted with the RNeasy Micro Kit (QIAGEN), DNaseI-treated, and amplified with the Ovation Pico WTA V2 (NuGEN Technologies). Single-stranded cDNA amplification products were purified using QIAquick PCR Purification Kit (QIAGEN). cDNA was biotinylated using the Encore Biotin Module (NuGEN Technologies). Biotiylated cDNA was hybridized to Affymetrix Mouse Genechip ST 2.0 expression arrays.

Project description:Adult Ovarian Surface Epithelium (OSE) retains the ability to undergo Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT). We established a cell culture of murine adult OSE in their epithelial state, and we induced EMT by modifying their culture conditions. In this experiment we compare the transcriptional profile of the OSE before and after EMT.

Project description:In a mouse model of ovarian cancer, we have established that prolonged exposure to 17β-estradiol (E2) accelerates tumour onset and increases the incidence of morphologically dysplastic ovarian surface epithelium (OSE). OSE cell proliferation and morphology are tightly regulated by the asymmetrical distribution of polarity proteins that provide positional cues for surface localization and growth inhibition. We hypothesized that E2 causes OSE dysplasia by inhibiting a tumour suppressor gene called Disabled-2 (Dab2). Dab2 is critical in mediating the polarized distribution of cell surface proteins and is highly expressed in normal OSE, but is absent in the majority of ovarian cancers. In this study, Dab2 is shown to be suppressed by E2 and we investigated the possibility that this occurs through E2 up-regulation of microRNAs. microRNA microarray analysis comparing control vs. E2 treated mouse ovarian cancer cells (MASE) was used to identify candidate miRNAs that have a seeding sequence capable of targeting the 3-prime untranslated region (3’UTR) of both human and mouse Dab2 transcript.
