Description
Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a plasma cell tumor localized to the bone marrow (BM). Despite current progress in improving patient outcome, MM remains largely incurable. Disease clonal and interpatient heterogeneity has hampered identification of a common underlying mechanism for disease establishment and have slowed the development of novel targeted therapies. Epigenetic aberrations are now emerging as increasingly important in tumorigenesis, thus selective targeting of crucial epigenetic enzymes may provide new therapeutic potential in cancer including MM. Recently, we and others suggested the histone methyltransferase enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2), to be a potential therapeutic target in MM. Now we show that pharmacological inhibition of EZH2 suppresses the MM cell growth through downregulation of MM-associated oncogenes; IRF-4, XBP-1, PRDM1/BLIMP-1and c-MYC. We also show that downregulation of these genes is mediated via reactivated expression of microRNAs with tumor suppressor functions; primarily miR125a-3p and miR320c. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) we demonstrate that miR125a-3p and miR320c are targets of EZH2 and H3K27me3 in MM cell lines and primary MM cells. Our results further highlight the importance of polycomb-mediated silencing in MM to include microRNAs with tumor suppressor activity. This novel role further strengthens the oncogenic features of EZH2 and its potential as a therapeutic target in MM.

Description
The autoregulation of mycorrhization (AOM) describes a plant regulatory mechanism that limits the number of infection events by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. The key signal mediator is a receptor kinase (GmNARK) that acts in the shoots. Early signals of the mycorrhizal symbiosis induce a root-derived signal that activates GmNARK in the shoot finally leading to a systemic repression of subsequent infections in the root. So far, less is known about the signals down-stream of GmNARK. To find genes regulated by GmNARK in a mycorrhiza-dependent as well as in a mycorrhiza-independent manner, we used the Affymetrix GeneChip for soybean. In general, mycorrhizal root systems consist of both colonized and non-colonized, but autoregulated roots. To physically separate those two root types for transcript analysis of specifically regulated genes, we used the split-root system. Transcript profiling during AOM was done with material of Bragg wild-type and of the nark mutant nts1007, either non-inoculated or partially inoculated with the mycorrhizal fungus Rhizophagus irregularis (formerly Glomus intraradices). Wild-type and nark mutants were inoculated with R. irregularis on one half of the root-systems (root-parts "A") only. The remaining half of the root-systems stayed non-infected (root-parts "B"). Corresponding controls stayed completely non-infected. Gene expression was analyzed in inoculated root-parts, non-inoculated root-parts and shoots of three individual plants per treatment. ****[PLEXdb(http://www.plexdb.org) has submitted this series at GEO on behalf of the original contributor, Sara Schaarschmidt.

Description
Interferons have been ascribed to mediate antitumor effects. IRF-1 is a major target gene of interferons. It inhibits cell proliferation and oncogenic transformation. Here we show that 60% of all mRNAs deregulated by oncogenic transformation mediated by c-myc and H-ras are reverted to the expression levels of non-transformed cells by IRF-1. These include cell cycle regulating genes. Activation of IRF-1 decreases cyclin D1 expression and CDK4 kinase activity concomitant with dephosphorylation of pRb. These effects of IRF-1 are mediated by inhibition of the MEK-ERK pathway and a transcriptional repression of cyclin D1. IRF-1 mediated effects on cell cycle progression were found to be overridden by ectopic expression of cyclin D1. Ablation of cyclin D1 by RNA interference experiments prevents transformation and tumor growth in nude mice. The data demonstrate that cyclin D1 is a key target for IRF-1 mediated tumor suppressive effects.
Publication Title
Tumor suppression by IFN regulatory factor-1 is mediated by transcriptional down-regulation of cyclin D1.
