Project description:Smyd3 is a histone methyltransferase implicated in tumorigenesis. Here we show that Smyd3 expression in mice is required but not sufficient for chemically induced liver and colon cancer formation. In these organs Smyd3 is functioning in the nucleus as a direct transcriptional activator of several key genes involved in cell proliferation, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, JAK/Stat3 oncogenic pathways, as well as of the c-myc and b-catenin oncogenes. Smyd3 specifically interacts with H3K4Me3-modified histone tails and is recruited to the core promoter regions of many but not all active genes. Smyd3 binding density on target genes positively correlates with increased RNA Pol-II density and transcriptional outputs. The results suggest that Smyd3 is an essential transcriptional potentiator of a multitude of cancer-related genes. Standard Smyd3-deficient (Smyd3-KO) mice were generated using gene-trap ES cell clones (AS0527 from International Gene Trap Consortium), in which a selection cassette, containing the splice acceptor site from mouse EN2 exon 2 followed by the beta-galactosidase and neomycin resistance gene fusion gene and the SV40 polyadenylation sequence was inserted into the 5th intron of the Smyd3 gene. The resulting mice were devoid of Smyd3 mRNA and protein in all tissues, including liver and colon. For the generation of Smyd3-Tg mice the open reading frame of the mouse Smyd3 cDNA, which contained 3 Flag epitopes at the 3â end was inserted into the StuI site of the pTTR1-ExV3 plasmid (Yan et al, 1990). The 6.8 kb HindIII fragment containing the mouse transthyretin enhancer/promoter, intron 1, Smyd3 cDNA, three Flag epitopes and SV40 poly-A site was used to microinject C57Bl/6 fertilized oocytes. Founder animals were identified by Southern blotting and crossed with F1 mice to generate lines. Specific overexpression in the liver was tested by RT-PCR analysis in different tissues.

Project description:Members of the SMYD family of Histone Lysine Methyltransferases, including SMYD3, were shown to be involved in both cardiac and skeletal myogenesis. Currently, very little is known about their mechanisms of action and their potential target genes. To study the cellular and molecular function of SMYD3 in skeletal muscle differentiation, we used loss and gain of function approaches in C2C12 myoblasts. We used RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to generate gene expression profiling during myogenic differentiation under SMYD3 transient knockdown by siRNAs or SMYD3 stable overexpression in C2C12. We identified multiple genes whose expression is significantly affected by Smyd3 levels, among them the key myogenic regulatory factor (MRF) Myogenin.

Project description:Genetic abnormalities in histone methyltransferases (HMTs) frequently occur in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and are related to its progression. SET and MYND domain containing 3 (SMYD3) is an HMT that is upregulated in various tumors and promotes their malignancy. To further explore the functional role of SMYD3 in DLBCL, RNA-Seq was carried out on total RNA isolated from SMYD3-knockdown or control OCI-LY8 cells.

Project description:During the course of surveying Medulloblastoma (MB) group specific lncRNAs, we found that SPRIGHTLY was highly upregulated in group 4 cell lines and patient derived xenografts (PDX). Its knock down reduced cell proliferation, invasion, and colony formation. It binds to the intron region of SMYD3 pre-mRNA and regulates SMYD3 exon 5 skipping together with PTBP1 protein. In group 4 cell line, the increase of SMYD3 affects EGFR pathway and regulates its downstream gene transcription. Inquiring SMYD3 and SMYD3 E5D transcripts expression in the patient RNA-seq data suggests that balancing two transcripts level seems to be associated with tumor development or maintenance.

Project description:SET and MYND-domain containing protein 3 (SMYD3) mediates epigenetic repression of type I IFN response genes in human papilloma virus (HPV)-negative HNSCC cells, and Smyd3 depletion using anti-sense oligonucleotides (ASOs) increases the sensitivity of syngeneic mouse oral carcinoma (MOC1) models to anti-PD-1 therapy. In this study, we interrogated the effects ASO-induced Smyd3 depletion in the cancer and immune cell populations, as well as the global changes in the tumor microenvironment (TME) of MOC1 tumors treated with Smyd3 ASOs and anti-PD-1. Single-cell RNA-seq of MOC1 tumors treated with Smyd3 ASOs revealed enrichment of type I IFN response pathways in cancer cells, a shift of CD8+ T-cells towards an activated/memory phenotype and a shift of neutrophils towards an anti-tumorigenic phenotype. While Smyd3 ASOs seemed to also promote a Treg and M2 macrophage phenotype, bulk RNA-seq of MOC1 tumors treated with Smyd3 ASOs and anti-PD-1 revealed enrichment of type I IFN response pathways and upregulation of CD8+ T-cell attracting chemokines, implying the induction of an inflamed TME. Non-responder MOC1 tumors to the Smyd3 ASO and anti-PD-1 combination revealed mechanisms of resistance derived from cancer cells, macrophages and CD8+ T-cells, including neutrophil enrichment through upregulation of Cxcl2, repression of Cxcl9 and defective antigen presentation. This study sheds light in the immunomodulatory functions of Smyd3 in an in vivo setting and provides insight into actionable mechanisms of resistance to improve the therapeutic efficacy of Smyd3 ASO and anti-PD-1 combination treatment.

Project description:SET (Su) and MYND (myeloid-Nervy-DEAF-1) domain-containing protein (SMYD) is a methyltransferase family, including five members of which SMYD1, SMYD2, SMYD3 and SMYD4, has been found to play critical roles in human carcinogenesis. It has been demonstrated that the altered expression of SMYD3 is associated with the progression of several solid tumors, including bladder cancer, glioma, gastric cancer, prostate cancer and colorectal cancer. Several trials have explored the effects of SMYD3 overexpression on proliferation, viability, cancer cells migration and invasion. The series of elegant experiments suggested that SMYD3 could serve as a potential biomarker for clinically aggressive disease and an attractive therapeutic target. In our previous study (PMID: 26980013), we found SMYD3 expression is frequently upregulated in human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) clinical tissues, correlating with overall survival of ESCC patients. RNAi-mediated knockdown of SMYD3 suppressed ESCC cell proliferation, migration and invasion in vitro, and inhibited local tumor invasion in vivo. To identify genes and biological pathways associated with SMYD3 functions and mechanism, SMYD3 was knockdowned bypGLV3/H1/GFP/+Puro Vector in ESCC cell line KYSE150 with an empty plasmid as a control, these two cells were applied for mRNA expression profile analyses to find the differentially expressed genes using GeneChip® PrimeView⢠Human Gene Expression Array. shRNA sequences targeting SMYD3 was ligated into the pGLV3/H1/GFP/+Puro Vector and transfected into ESCC cell line KYSE150 with an empty plasmid as a control. The mRNA expression profiles of SMYD3 knockdown was analyzed by GeneChip® PrimeViewâ¢Â Human Gene Expression Array (Affymetrix, USA). The knockdown of SMYD3 was confirmed by QRT-PCR and Western blot. Total RNAs from SMYD3 knockdown cells and control cells were extracted for GeneChip® PrimeView⢠Human Gene Expression Array.
