Project description:Signaling by the cytokine LIF and its downstream transcription factor, STAT3, prevents differentiation of pluripotent embryonic stem cells (ESCs) by opposing MAP kinase signaling. This contrasts with most cell types where STAT3 signaling induces differentiation. We find that STAT3 binding across the pluripotent genome is dependent upon Brg, the ATPase subunit of a specialized chromatin remodeling complex (esBAF) found in ESCs. Brg is required to establish chromatin accessibility at STAT3 binding targets, in essence preparing these sites to respond to LIF signaling. Moreover, Brg deletion leads to rapid Polycomb (PcG) binding and H3K27me3-mediated silencing of many Brg-activated targets genome-wide, including the target genes of the LIF signaling pathway. Hence, one crucial role of Brg in ESCs involves its ability to potentiate LIF signaling by opposing PcG. Contrary to expectations, Brg also facilitates PcG function at classical PcG target including all four Hox loci, reinforcing their repression in ESCs. These findings reveal that esBAF does not simply antagonize PcG, but rather, the two chromatin regulators act both antagonistically and synergistically with the common goal of supporting pluripotency.

Brg conditional embryonic stem cell (ESC) line was prepared from Brg(lox/lox);Actin-CreER mice that allow conditional deletion of Brg upon addition of 4-hydroxytamoxifen (4OHT, Sigma). Brg conditional ESCs were treated with 4-OHT for 72 hours to delete Brg. Brg protein levels completely abolished only at 48 hours (Brg-KO). RNA from Brg conditional ESCs (WT), Brg-KO ESCs, Brg conditional ESCs starved of LIF (Lif-WD) for 48 hours were extracted using Trizol reagent (Invitrogen), followed by RNeasy kit with DNaseI digestion to eliminate genomic DNA. Purified RNA was processed and hybridized onto Affymetrix Mouse MOE 4.0 3’ expression arrays according to the manufacturer's instructions. ChIP-Seq was used to detect and measure STAT3 occupancy and levels of H3K27me3 in the genome before and after the removal of the SWI/SNF ATPase Brg in mouse ESCs. Total of 4 samples (WT and KO STAT3; WT and KO H3K27me3). Input DNA was sequenced as control.

Project description:Super-enhancers (SEs) have been recognized as key epigenetic regulators underlying cancer stemness and malignant traits by aberrant transcriptional control and promising therapeutic targets against human cancers. However, the SE landscape and their roles during head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) development especially in cancer stem cells (CSCs) maintenance remain underexplored yet. Here, we identified leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF)-SE as a representative oncogenic SE to activate LIF transcription in HNSCC. LIF secreted from cancer cells and cancer-associated fibroblasts promotes cancer stemness by driving SOX2 transcription in an autocrine or paracrine manner, respectively. Mechanistically, enhancer elements E1, 2, 4 within LIF-SE recruited SOX2/SMAD3/BRD4/EP300 to facilitate LIF transcription; LIF activated downstream LIFR-STAT3 signaling to drive SOX2 transcription, thus forming a previously unknown regulatory feedback loop (LIF-SE-LIF/LIFR-STAT3-SOX2) to maintain LIF overexpression and CSCs stemness. Clinically, increased LIF abundance in clinical samples correlated with malignant clinicopathological features and patient prognosis; higher LIF concentrations in presurgical plasma were negatively associated with patient survival and dramatically diminished following cancer eradication. Therapeutically, pharmacological targeting LIF-SE-LIF/LIFR-STAT3 significantly impaired tumor growth and reduced CSC subpopulations in HNSCC xenograft and PDX models. Our findings reveal a hitherto uncharacterized LIF-SE-mediated auto-regulatory loop in regulating HNSCC stemness and highlight LIF as a novel non-invasive biomarker and potential therapeutic target for HNSCC.

Project description:To identify downstream targets of Jak/Stat3 pathways without being distracted by differentiation signalings from MEK/ERK pathway, we exploited a engineered B6 cells, which stably stably expressing a chimeric receptor (GRgp-Y118F). The chimeric receptor can induce the phosphorylation of Stat3 by GCSF without activating the MEK/ERK pathway. To mimic the effect of GCSF, the chimeric B6 cells were also treated with LIF plus a selective MEK chemical inhibitor, PD0325901, to induce LIF/Jak/Stat3 but MEK/ERK pathways. mESCs starved in serum free growth medium for 6hrs were treated with GCSF or with LIF plus PD0325901 for 1hr, after which total RNA was extracted for analysis.

Project description:The TET family of FE(II) and 2-oxoglutarate-dependent enzymes (Tet1/2/3) promote DNA demethylation by converting 5-methylcytosine to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), which they further oxidize into 5-formylcytosine and 5-carboxylcytosine. Tet1 is robustly expressed in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) and has been implicated in mESC maintenance. Here we demonstrate that, unlike genetic deletion, RNAi-mediated depletion of Tet1 in mESCs led to a significant reduction in 5hmC and loss of mESC identity. The differentiation phenotype due to Tet1 depletion positively correlated with the extent of 5hmC loss. Meta-analyses of genomic datasets suggested interaction between Tet1 and leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) signaling. LIF signaling is known to promote self-renewal and pluripo-tency in mESCs partly by opposing MAPK/ERK mediated differentiation. Withdrawal of LIF leads to differentiation of mESCs. We discovered that Tet1 depletion impaired LIF-dependent Stat3-mediated gene activation by affecting Stat3's ability to bind to its target sites on chromatin. Nanog overexpression or inhibition of MAPK/ERK signaling, both known to maintain mESCs in the absence of LIF, rescued Tet1 depletion, further supporting the dependence of LIF/Stat3 signaling on Tet1. These data support the conclusion that analysis of mESCs in the hours/days immediately following efficient Tet1 depletion reveals Tet1’s normal physiological role in maintaining the pluripotent state that may be subject to homeostatic compensation in genetic models.
