Project description:Glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) has been recently identified as an important regulator of stem cell function. In vitro studies show that GSK-3β inhibition delays proliferation of human haematopoietic progenitor cells while increasing numbers of late dividing multipotent progenitors. Gene expression analysis revealed that GSK-3β inhibition modulates the expression of a subset of genes that are transcriptional targets for cytokines. GSK-3β inhibition antagonised down-regulation of genes encoding cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor p57 and a member of the growth arrest and DNA damage 45 family, GADD45B as well as up-regulation of cyclin D1 by cytokines, providing a possible mechanism for the BIO-induced delay in cell cycle progression. Surprisingly, inhibition of GSK-3β earlier shown to prevent β-catenin degradation and promote the nuclear accumulation of β-catenin was not sufficient to activate its transcriptional targets in haematopoietic stem cells. GSK-3β inhibition up-regulated the expression of a several positive regulators of stem cell function suppressed during cytokine-induced proliferation. The data supports a clinical role for GSK-3β inhibition to improve engraftment efficiency of ex vivo expanded stem cells.

Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in hepatocellular carcinoma cell line hepG2 in regular culture, hepG2-slug in regular culture and hepG2-slug on Matrigel. Whole genome gene expression level changes have been compared in hepatocellular carcinoma cell line hepG2 in regular culture, hepG2-slug in regular culture and hepG2-slug on Matrigel. Roche NimbleGen micro-array analysis was employed to assess global genome expression in HepG2 in regular culture, HepG2-slug in regular culture and HepG2-slug on Matrigel. The results demonstrated that the up-regulated genes and the down-regulated genes increased significantly when HepG2-slug cells with VM forming ablity were cultured on Matrigel and formed VM.

Project description:ARHGAP35 encoding p190A RhoGAP (p190A) was identified by GWAS as a major human cancer gene. Our published studies have determined that p190A is a tumor suppressor that activates the canonical Hippo pathway. To elucidate how p190A signals in this context, we performed mass spectrometry to identify p190A binding proteins. Two interactors were identified significantly more frequently than others: p120 RasGAP (p120) and ZO-1. Originally p190A was cloned via its direct binding to p120, hence validating our approach. In addition, we found that p190A also binds to ZO-2. The interaction of p190A with ZO-2 is dependent on p120, thus suggesting formation of a ternary complex. Next, we determine that both p120 and ZO-2, but not ZO-1, are necessary for p190A to activate LATS kinases and suppress tumorigenesis in a xenograft mouse model. Moreover, the interactions with p120 and ZO-2 are essential for transcriptional modulation by p190A, including the CDH1 gene encoding E-cadherin, which we previously have demonstrated is essential for p190A signaling. Collectively, this work identifies a novel tumor suppressor interactome of p190A, which includes ZO-2, an established constituent of the Hippo pathway, and p120, which in spite of its strong association with Ras signaling, is essential for p190A to activate LATS kinases.

Project description:Despite the prevalence of KRAS mutations in colorectal cancer, there is no K-Ras targeted therapies for these tumors and available treatment options are limited for metastatic disease. GSK-3β has been demonstrated to be a critically important kinase for survival and proliferation of K-Ras-depended pancreatic cancer cells. In this study we tested 9-ING-41, a small molecule inhibitor of GSK-3β, in patient-derived tumor organoid models of colorectal cancer. We demonstrated that addition of 9-ING-41 to the standard of care drugs 5-FU and oxaliplatin could significantly enhance inhibition of the growth of colorectal cancer cells harboring KRAS mutations. The results of the transcriptomic analysis support our findings of cell cycle arrest and DNA repair deficiency in 9-ING-41-treated colorectal cancer cells. Moreover, we found substantial similarity in the changes of transcriptomic profile after inhibition of GSK-3β and suppression of STK33, another critically important kinase for K-Ras-dependent cells. Overall, the results of this study provide a rationale for the inclusion of patients with mutant KRAS colorectal cancer in clinical studies of 9-ING-41 and other GSK-3 inhibitors.

Project description:Studies of the zinc finger transcription factors Slug and Snail have largely focused on their important role in modulating epithelial-mesenchymal transition during embryonic development and tumor progression. However, these transcription factors also appear to regulate local inflammation. In previous studies, we showed that Slug knockout mice were resistant to sunburn, an acute cutaneous inflammatory response, compared to wild type mice. In the present studies, we used Slug knockout, chimeric Slug knockout/wild type, conditional Slug knockout, and Slug transgenic mice to study the role of Slug in ultraviolet radiation (UVR)-induced cutaneous inflammation. We demonstrated, using immunohistochemistry, in vivo imaging, and neutrophil migration studies, that it was Slug expression in the epidermis rather than in neutrophils that modulated the UVR response. Microarray analysis indicated that this modulation was effected by the production of epidermal cytokines, including CCL3, CCL4, oncostatin, and interleukin-1β, that recruited neutrophils to UVR-exposed skin. The pattern of pro-inflammatory gene regulation by Slug suggested a central role for NF-κB in mediating gene induction. Immunohistochemical analysis of UVR-induced NF-κB activation demonstrated reduced activation in Slug knockout and enhanced activation in Slug transgenic epidermis. Slug thus appears to modulate NF-κB activation in response to UVR.

Project description:Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) represents the most commonly diagnosed precursor lesion of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA), however the cell-of-origin remains unclear. Herein, we show that pancreas-specific activation in mice of nuclear-targeted glycogen synthase kinase-3β and oncogenic KRasG12D leads to the loss of acinar cells, the expansion of ductal cells, and the rapid development of IPMN with low-grade dysplasia. RNA-sequencing identified the expression of several ductal stem cell lineage genes including the water channel AQP5. The Aqp5+ pancreatic ductal cell pool was proliferative, phenotypically distinct from mature pancreatic ductal cells, and deletion of AQP5 limited IPMN development. Significantly, Aqp5 is highly expressed in human IPMN along with GSK-3b suggesting that human preneoplastic lesions likely arise from the expansion of an Aqp5+ pancreatic ductal stem cell. Altogether, these data identify Aqp5+ ductal cells in the mouse and human pancreas as the likely cell-of-origin for IPMN.
