Description
In blood, the transcription factor C/EBPa is essential for myeloid differentiation and has been implicated in regulating self-renewal of fetal liver hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). However, its function in adult HSCs is unknown. Here, using an inducible knockout model, we found that C/EBPa deficient adult HSCs underwent a pronounced expansion with enhanced proliferation, characteristics resembling fetal liver HSCs. Consistently, transcription profiling of C/EBPa deficient HSCs revealed a gene expression program similar to fetal liver HSCs. Moreover we observed that age-specific C/EBPa expression correlated with its inhibitory effect on the HSC cell cycle. Mechanistically, we identified N-Myc as a C/EBPa downstream target. C/EBPa upregulation during HSC transition from an active fetal state to a quiescent adult state was accompanied by down-regulation of N-Myc, and loss of C/EBPa resulted in de-repression of NMyc. Our data establish that C/EBPa acts as a molecular switch between fetal and adult states of HSC in part via transcriptional repression of the proto-oncogene N-Myc.

Description
Ammonia is a toxic by-product of metabolism that causes cellular stress. Although a number of proteins are involved in adaptive stress response, specific factors that counteract ammonia-induced cellular stress and regulate cell metabolism that facilitate survival against toxicity have yet to be identified. We demonstrated that hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) is stabilised and activated by ammonia stress. HIF-1 activated by ammonium chloride compromises ammonia-induced apoptosis. Furthermore, we identified glutamine synthetase (GS) as a key driver of cancer cell proliferation and glutamine-dependent metabolism under ammonia stress in ovarian cancer stem-like cells expressing CD90. Interestingly, activated HIF-1 counteracts glutamine synthetase function in glutamine metabolism by facilitating glycolysis and elevating glucose dependency. Our studies reveal the hitherto unknown functions of HIF-1 in biphasic ammonia stress management in cancer stem-like cells. GS facilitates proliferation and HIF-1 contributes to metabolic remodelling in cellular energy usage resulting in attenuated proliferation but conversely promoting cell survival.

Description
BCOR is a component of a variant Polycomb group repressive complex 1 (PRC1) complex. Recently, we and others reported recurrent somatic BCOR loss-of-function mutations in myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myelogenous leukaemia (AML). However the role of BCOR in normal hematopoiesis is largely unknown. Here, we explored the function of BCOR in myeloid cells using myeloid murine cell models with Bcor conditional loss-of-function or overexpression alleles. Bcor mutant bone marrow cells showed significantly higher proliferation and differentiation rates with reduced protein levels of RING1B, a ubiquitin ligase subunit of PRC1 family complexes. Global RNA expression profiling in murine cells and AML patient samples with BCOR loss-of-function mutation suggested that loss of BCOR expression is associated with proliferation and myeloid differentiation and decreased stem cell quiescence. Further, we used a MLL-AF9 murine model of AML and found that loss of Bcor increased serial replating efficiency, enhanced MLL-AF9 in blocking cell differentiation, and increased expression of Evi1 which is associated with leukemic transformation. Our results strongly suggest that BCOR plays an indispensable role in maintaining hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) quiescence by inhibiting myeloid stem cell proliferation and differentiation and offer a mechanistic explanation for how BCOR regulates gene expression such as Hox genes.

Description
The tumor-initiating cell (TIC) model accounts for the phenotypic and functional heterogeneity among cancer cells found within human cancers. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key regulatory molecules frequently aberrantly expressed in tumors, and may play important roles in contributing towards tumor heterogeneity and TIC behavior. More recent efforts have focused on miRNAs for diagnosis and as targets for novel therapies. In this study, we identified the miRNAs, miR-1246 and miR-1290, which are crucial for the function of TICs, thereby driving cancer progression in human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). These miRNAs are restricted to patient-derived tumorspheres and CD166+ primary tumor cells, both enriched for TICs. Loss of either miRNA impacted the tumorigenic potential of TICs and their ability to metastasize. Interestingly, longitudinal analyses of serum miR-1246 and miR-1290 levels correlated circulating levels of either miRNA to the clinical response seen in lung cancer patients to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibition, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Functionally, direct inhibition of miR-1246 or miR-1290 with locked nucleic acid (LNA) administered systemically, could arrest the growth of established patient-derived tumors xenografted in immunocompromised mice, thus indicating these miRNAs are clinically useful as biomarkers for tracking disease progression and as therapeutic targets.
