Project description:T cell senescence and exhaustion are major barriers to successful cancer immunotherapy. Here, we show that miR-155 increased CD8+ T cell antitumor function by restraining T cell senescence and functional exhaustion through epigenetic silencing of drivers of terminal differentiation. miR-155 enhanced Polycomb Repressor Complex 2 (PRC2) activity indirectly by promoting the expression of the PRC2 associated factor Phf19 through downregulation of the Akt inhibitor, Ship1. Phf19 orchestrated a transcriptional program extensively shared with miR-155 to restrain T cell senescence and sustain CD8+ T cell antitumor responses. These effects relied on Phf19 histone-binding capacity, which is critical for PRC2 recruitment to chromatin. These findings establish the miR-155–Phf19–PRC2 as a pivotal axis regulating CD8+ T cell differentiation, paving new ways for potentiating cancer immunotherapy through epigenetic reprogramming of CD8+ T cell fate.

Project description:The microRNA miR-155 is essential for CD8+ T cell antiviral and antitumor immunity but the mechanisms behind its activity remain unresolved. Here, we show that miR-155 increased CD8+ T cell antitumor function by restraining T cell senescence and functional exhaustion through epigenetic silencing of key drivers of effector differentiation. miR-155 enhanced the function of polycomb repressor complex 2 (PRC2) indirectly by promoting the expression of the PRC2 cofactor Phf19 via AKT signaling. Phf19 orchestrated a transcriptional program extensively shared with miR-155 to enhance T cell engraftment, polyfunctionality, and antitumor immunity. These effects were dependent on the histone-binding capacity of Phf19 which is critical for the PRC2 recruitment to chromatin. These findings establish miR-155–Phf19–PRC2 as a pivotal axis regulating CD8+ T cell differentiation. Targeting the microRNA–polycomb-group protein circuitry is a promising route to potentiate cancer immunotherapy through epigenetic reprogramming of CD8+ T cell fate.

Project description:PCL family protein Phf19/Pcl3 is one of the accessory components of the PRC2 core complex, and Phf19 is highly expressed in murine ES cells and an ES cell-like embryonic carcinoma cell line, F9 cells. Here we performed microarray analysis of embryonal carcinoma cell line F9 following Phf19 knockdown by shRNA. Knocking down Phf19/Pcl3 in F9 embryonic cells led to derepression of numerous PRC2 direct target genes. 4 sampels including 2 shRNA vector control cell lines and 2 shPhf19 cell lines were used for RNA extraction and Affymetrix mouse 430 2.0 arrays.

Project description:The Polycomb-like protein PHF19/PCL3 associates with the Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) and mediates its recruitment to chromatin in embryonic stem cells, where it is essential for maintaining the repression of developmental genes. PHF19 is also overexpressed in many cancers. However, neither PHF19 targets in cancer cells nor potentially misregulated pathways involving PHF19 are known. Here, we investigate the role of PHF19 in prostate cancer cells. We find that PHF19 interacts with PRC2 and binds to PRC2 targets on chromatin. Direct PHF19 target genes are involved in proliferation, differentiation, angiogenesis, and extracellular matrix organization, among others. Depletion of PHF19 triggers an increase in MTF2/PCL2 recruitment to chromatin, along with a genome-wide gain in PRC2 occupancy and H3K27me3 deposition. Transcriptome analysis shows that loss of PHF19 promotes deregulation of key genes involved in growth, metastasis, and invasion, as well as of factors that stimulate formation of new blood vessels. Consistent with this, PHF19 silencing reduces cell proliferation rate and promotes invasive growth and angiogenesis. Taking together, our findings reveal a role for PHF19 in controlling the balance between cell proliferation and invasiveness in prostate cancer.

Project description:Polycomb group proteins are transcriptional repressors that play essential roles in regulating genes required for differentiation and embryonic development. The Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) contains the methyltransferase activity for lysine 27 on histone 3 (H3K27me3), which is a docking site for the PRC1 complex and leads to gene repression. However, the role of other histone modifications in regulating PRC2 activity is just beginning to be understood. Here we show that direct recognition of histone H3 methylated at lysine 36 (H3K36me), an mark associated with activation, by the PRC2 subunit Phf19 is required for the full enzymatic activity of the PRC2 complex. We provide structural evidence for this interaction by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). Using genome-wide chromatin binding analyses and expression analyses, we show that Phf19 binds to a subset of PRC2 targets in embryonic stem (ES) cells, and that this is required for their repression and for H3K27me3 deposition. These findings reveal that the H3K36me2/3-Phf19 interaction is essential for PRC2 complex activity and for proper regulation of gene repression in ES cells. We determined the genome binding/occupancy profile of Phf19, H3K36me3, H3K36me2, H3K27me3 and Suz12 by high throughput sequencing in mouse embryonic stem cells. For Phf19 two independent biological replicas were performed and Phf19 binding sites were defined as those sites (ChIP-seq peaks) present in both replicas. H3K27me3 was evaluated in control ES cells and cells depleted of Phf19 (shRd and shPhf19 respectively).
