Project description:Oxidation of histone H3 at lysine 4 (H3K4ox) is catalyzed by lysyl oxidase–like 2 (LOXL2). This histone modification is enriched in heterochromatin in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells and has been linked to the maintenance of compacted chromatin. However, the molecular mechanism underlying this maintenance is still unknown. Here we show that LOXL2 interacts with RUVBL1, RUVBL2, BAF53, and DMAP1, a complex involved in the incorporation of the histone variant H2A.Z. Our experiments indicate that this interaction and the active form of RUVBL2 are required to maintain LOXL2-dependent chromatin compaction. Genome-wide experiments showed that H2A.Z, RUVBL2, and H3K4ox colocalize in heterochromatin regions. In the absence of LOXL2 or RUVBL2, global levels of the heterochromatin histone mark H3K9me3 were strongly reduced, and the ATAC-seq signal in the H3K9me3 regions was increased. Finally, we observed that the interplay between these series of events is required to maintain H3K4ox-enriched heterochromatin regions, which in turn is key for maintaining the oncogenic properties of the TNBC cell line tested (MDA-MB-231).

Project description:Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) often develops resistance to single-agent treatment, which can be circumvented using targeted combinatorial approaches. Here, we demonstrate that the simultaneous inhibition of LOXL2 and BRD4 synergistically limits TNBC proliferation in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, LOXL2 interacts in the nucleus with the short isoform of BRD4 (BRD4S), MED1, and the cell cycle transcriptional regulator B-MyB. These interactions sustain the formation of BRD4 and MED1 nuclear transcriptional foci and control cell cycle progression at the gene expression level. The pharmacological co-inhibition of LOXL2 and BRD4 reduces BRD4 nuclear foci, BRD4-MED1 colocalization, and the transcription of cell cycle genes, thus supressing TNBC cell proliferation. Finding novel strategies to disrupt BRD4S-LOXL2 interaction holds potential for developing successful TNBC therapies.

Project description:Our results indicate that oxidation of TAF10 by LOXL2 induces its release from its promoters, leading to a block in TFIID-dependent gene transcription. Since TFIID complex is crucial for the expression of Nanog, Klf4, Sox2 and Oct4 and for maintaining the pluripotent state of embryonic stem cells, TAF10 oxidation by LOXL2 leads to inactivation of the pluripotency genes and a loss of pluripotent capacity in embryonic stem cells. Moreover, in vivo results demonstrate an essential role of LOXL2 in neural differentiation during zebrafish development: in the absence of LOXL2 the neural progenitor gene Sox2 is aberrantly overexpressed and neural differentiation is impaired. 12 samples were analyzed: mES transduced with control shRNA (n=3); mES transduced with LOXL2 shRNA (n=3), ES transduced with control shRNA and treated with RA (n=3); ES transduced with LOXL2 shRNA and treated with RA (n=3)

Project description:A novel alternative splicing isoform of LOXL2 â³e13 was expressed ubiquitously in all cell lines and ESCC tissues. In contrast to the impaired deamination enzymatic activity compared with full length LOXL2, LOXL2 â³e13 showed an enhanced ability to promote cell mobility and invasiveness in ESCC cells than full length LOXL2 through a different mechanism. We used cDNA microarrays to identify genes that were differentially expressed upon LOXL2 â³ e13 overexpressed. For this purpose, we selected LOXL2 â³ e13, WT and empty vector control transfeced ESCC KYSE150 cell lines. Total RNA was extracted,compare the gene expression patterns between LOXL2 â³e13, LOXL2 WT and empty vector control transfected cells through the Genechip Primeview Human Gene Expression Array.

Project description:Impaired or excessive growth of endothelial cells contributes to several diseases. However, the functional involvement of regulatory long non-coding RNAs in these processes is not well defined. Here we show that the long non-coding antisense transcript of GATA6 (GATA6-AS) interacts with the epigenetic regulator LOXL2 to regulates endothelial gene expression via changes in histone methylation. Using RNA deep sequencing, we find that GATA6-AS is up-regulated in endothelial cells during hypoxia. Silencing of GATA6-AS diminishes TGF-β2-induced endothelial-mesenchymal transition in vitro and promotes formation of blood vessels in mice. We identify LOXL2, known to remove activating H3K4me3 chromatin marks, as a GATA6-AS-associated protein, and reveal a set of angiogenesis-related genes that are inversely regulated by LOXL2 and GATA6-AS silencing. As GATA6-AS silencing reduces H3K4me3 methylation of two of these genes, periostin and cyclooxygenase-2, we conclude that GATA6-AS acts as negative regulator of nuclear LOXL2 function. In this dataset we include the global gene expression analysis using exon arrays after silencing LOXL2.

Project description:In prostate cancer (PC), cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) exhibit contrasting biological properties to non-malignant prostate fibroblasts (NPFs) and promote tumorigenesis. Resolving intercellular signaling pathways between CAFs and prostate tumor epithelium may offer novel opportunities for research translation. To this end, the proteome and phosphoproteome of four pairs of patient-matched CAFs and NPFs were characterized to identify discriminating proteomic signatures. Samples were analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) with a hyper-reaction monitoring data-independent acquisition (HRM-DIA) workflow. Proteins that exhibited a significant increase in CAFs versus NPFs were enriched for the functional categories ‘cell adhesion’ and the ‘extracellular matrix’. The CAF phosphoproteome exhibited enhanced phosphorylation of proteins associated with the ‘spliceosome’ and ‘actin binding’. STRING analysis of the CAF proteome revealed a prominent interaction hub associated with collagen synthesis, modification, and signaling. It contained multiple collagens, including the fibrillar types COL1A1/2 and COL5A1; the receptor tyrosine kinase discoidin domain-containing receptor 2 (DDR2), a receptor for fibrillar collagens; and lysyl oxidase-like 2 (LOXL2), which promotes collagen crosslinking. Increased activity and/or expression of LOXL2 and DDR2 in CAFs were confirmed by enzymatic assays and Western blot analyses. Pharmacological inhibition of CAF-derived LOXL2 perturbed extracellular matrix (ECM) organization and decreased cell migration in wound-healing assays. Furthermore, it significantly impaired the motility of co-cultured RWPE2 prostate tumor epithelial cells. These results indicate that CAF-derived LOXL2 is an important mediator of intercellular communication within the PC tumor microenvironment and a potential therapeutic target.

Project description:Esophageal cancer is the sixth most common cause of cancer death globally, of which esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is the most common histological subtype. High level expression of LOXL2 has been shown to be associated with tumor metastasis and poor clinical outcome in ESCC. To determine whether there are genes whose expression in ESCC cells is regulated by LOXL2, next generation RNA sequencing analysis was used to compare the RNA expression profile of KYSE510 cells before and after silencing LOXL2 expression.

Project description:We have identified a new novel spliced variant of Lysyl Oxidase-like 2 (LOXL2), termed LOXL2 delta72, in human oesophageal carcinoma cells (ESCC). To explore the biological function of this variant, the cDNA microarrays was perform to assess the genes expression induced by its over-expression in ESCC KYSE150. We used microarrays to detail the global programmed of genes expression when LOXL2 delta72 over-expressed in KYSE150 cells compared with wild-type LOXL2.
