• Non-coding RNAs Activated by the Wnt/Beta-catenin Signaling Pathway in Hepatoblastoma

  Hepatoblastoma (HB) is the most common pediatric liver tumor, affecting mostly children under 3 years of age. This rare tumor represents 1% of all pediatric cancers. Genetic studies have shown that HB is characterized by high frequency mutations of the CTNNB1 gene encoding beta-catenin (around 75%) and relative genomic stability. Here we have analyzed the transcriptional profile of 21 HBs compared to matched non-tumor livers by Cap Analysis of Gene Expression (CAGE), which provides accurate and quantitative profiling of all transcripts. CAGE analysis revealed strong upregulation of known Wnt target coding genes in most tumors analyzed, consistent with previous transcriptomic studies. To better define the Wnt-dependent transcriptional landscape of HB, we integrated CAGE data with TCF4 ChIP-seq data from a CTNNB1-mutated cancer cell line and with the FANTOM5 genomic coordinates of TCF/LEF binding motifs. Both TCF/LEF binding motifs and ChIP-seq peaks were strongly enriched in the immediate upstream region, not only for protein-coding genes, but also for non-coding transcripts. Among the selected 112 top Wnt target genes at FDR<1.0E-6 and fold change>8, we found clear over-representation (66%) of distant transcription start sites (TSSs) representing lncRNAs and enhancer RNAs, which raises the question of their role in HB pathogenesis. Analysis of the 112 promoters using CAGEd-oPOSSUM confirmed the predominant involvement of Tcf/Lef transcription factors, together with HNF4G, GATA2, Sox3 and Ets-related genes. Finally, the 112 Wnt target signature defined 3 tumor subclasses, T1, T2 and T3, characterized by progressive alteration of the non-coding part of the transcriptome and significant differences in clinical behavior.

• Mitochondrial DNA deletion detection in POLG patients

  Accumulation of deletions in the mitochondrial genome is a pathological hallmark of both aging and a broad range of neurometabolic disorders. Prior mtDNA deletion studies have been limited by reliance upon either long range PCR or NGS strategies that target specific regions of the mitochondrial genome. We developed an ultrasensitive high throughput sequencing process (LostArc) to identify and quantify all deletions in circular DNA molecules while minimizing interference from linear DNA and PCR artefacts. We applied this process to skeletal muscle biopsies from 19 unaffected individuals (aged 17 to 93 years) and from 22 patients with heritable mitochondrial disease (17 to 80 years) bearing pathogenic variants in POLG, the nuclear gene encoding the catalytic subunit of the mitochondrial replicative DNA polymerase ɣ (Pol ɣ). To our astonishment, LostArc revealed 35 million mtDNA deletions with ~470,000 unique deletion spans. This unprecedented volume of data enabled detailed and highly informative bioinformatics analyses. We show that ablation of mtDNA is sufficient to explain skeletal muscle phenotypes associated with aging and POLG-derived disease, with a clear threshold separating symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering and principle component analysis reveal distinct age- and disease-correlated deletion patterns that implicate DNA replication by Pol ɣ in the formation of mtDNA deletions. Deletion patterns also point to active mtDNA replication but little or no purifying selection against deleted mtDNA by mitophagy in postmitotic muscle fibers. Monte Carlo simulations of varied hypotheses for deletion formation, based in part on competing models of mtDNA replication, suggest the observed patterns are most consistent with deletions initiated by replication fork stalling during strand displacement mtDNA synthesis. Note that sequence data for HEK293 can be found under BioProject PRJNA642884.

• Investigating the Role of Neddylation in the Repair of Topoisomerase I-Mediated DNA Damage in Colorectal Cancer

  Colorectal cancer is one of the most lethal cancers worldwide. First-line chemotherapy for metastatic CRC (mCRC) entails a combination of irinotecan with 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin (FOLFIRI). Irinotecan is a prodrug that is converted within the cell to its active metabolite SN38, a potent TOP1 inhibitor. TOP1 relieves DNA torsional strain arising from DNA metabolism by cleaving one strand of the DNA duplex and forming an enzyme-DNA covalent intermediate that can be trapped by inhibitors. The resulting TOP1 DNA-protein crosslinks (TOP1-DPCs) interfere with replication and transcription and induce cell death if left unrepaired. I have established the role of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway in TOP1-DPC repair, but it remains unknown how ubiquitylation is activated. One possibility is that collision between advancing replication forks and the DPCs triggers a specific ubiquitin ligase to target DPCs for degradation. The DDB1-CUL4 (Cullin 4)-RBX1 (CRL4) ubiquitin ligase complex performs a salient role in both replication and DNA repair upon its activation by auto-NEDD8 modification (neddylation), but it is unknown whether it plays a role for TOP1-DPC repair. We plan to define the role of neddylation for TOP1-DPC repair during replication and examine irinotecan plus pevonedistat (PEV), a NEDD8-activating enzyme inhibitor in multiple clinical trials, in CRC patient-derived preclinical models including 3D organoids. The three in-house organoids, from which samples have been submitted to dbGaP, were sequenced as a means of verifying their identity as colon cancer organoids, to allow us to investigate the combination of TOP1 inhibitors and PEV and the molecular mechanisms underlying this drug combination in these organoids.
