Description
Tristetraprolin (TTP) is an RNA-binding protein that post-transcriptionally suppresses gene expression by delivering mRNA cargo to processing bodies (P-bodies) where the mRNA is degraded. TTP functions as a tumor suppressor in a mouse model of B cell lymphoma, and in some human malignancies low TTP expression correlates with reduced survival. Here we report important prognostic and functional roles for TTP in human prostate cancer. First, gene expression analysis of prostate tumors revealed low TTP expression correlates with patients having high-risk Gleason scores and increased biochemical recurrence. Second, in prostate cancer cells with low levels of endogenous TTP, inducible TTP expression inhibits their growth and proliferation, as well as their clonogenic growth. Third, TTP functions as a tumor suppressor in prostate cancer, as forced TTP expression markedly impairs the tumorigenic potential of prostate cancer cells in a mouse xenograft model. Finally, pathway analysis of gene expression data suggested metabolism is altered by TTP expression in prostate tumor cells, and metabolic analyses revealed that such processes are impaired by TTP, including mitochondrial respiration. Collectively, these findings suggest that TTP is an important prognostic indicator for prostate cancer, and augmenting TTP function would effectively disable the metabolism and proliferation of aggressive prostate tumors. Overall design: PC-3 cells were infected with a pRetroX-Tet-On-Advanced retrovirus and selected for by G418 resistance. Then the G418-resistant cells were secondarily infected with either a pRetroX-Tight-pPGK-tdTomato or a pRetroX-Tight-TTP-pPGK-tdTomato retrovirus and selected for by the expression of tdTomato. G418-resistant, tdTomato-positive cells were used for experiments, in triplicate for each cell type. Cells were treated with 300 ng/ml doxycycline (Dox) for 4h prior to collection. Cells infected with pRetroX-Tight-pPGK-tdTomato were used as controls.

Description
miR-155 has recently emerged as an important promoter of antitumor immunity through its functions in T lymphocytes. However, the impact of T cell expressed miR-155 on immune cell dynamics in solid tumors remains unclear. In the present study, we used single-cell RNA-sequencing to define the CD45+ immune cell populations within B16F10 murine melanoma tumors growing in either wild-type (WT) or miR-155 T cell conditional knockout (TCKO) mice at different timepoints. miR-155 was required for optimal T cell activation and reinforced the T cell response at the expense of infiltrating myeloid cells. Further, myeloid cells from tumors growing in TCKO mice were defined by an increase in wound healing genes and a decreased IFNg response gene signature. Finally, we found that miR-155 expression predicted a favorable outcome in human melanoma patients and was associated with a strong immune signature. Moreover, gene expression and histological analysis of the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data revealed that miR-155 expression also correlates with an immune-enriched subtype in 29 other human solid tumor types. Together, our study provides an unprecedented analysis of the cell types and gene expression signatures by immune cells within experimental melanoma tumors and elucidates miR-155's role in coordinating this dynamic response. Overall design: B16F10 murine melanoma cells expressing ovalbumin model antigen were injected subcutaneously (1e6) into wild-type (C57BL/6) and miR-155 T cell conditional knockout mice (n>4). 9 or 12 days after injection, tumors were pooled in each group, and DAPI(-)CD45(+) live tumor infiltrating immune cells were sorted via flow cytometry. Sorted immune cells were processed for single-cell RNA-sequencing via 10x platform.

Description
Myc oncoproteins directly regulate transcription by binding to target genes, yet this only explains a fraction of the genes affected by Myc. mRNA turnover is controlled via AU-binding proteins (AUBPs) that recognize AU-rich elements (AREs) found within many transcripts. Analyses of precancerous and malignant Myc-expressing B cells revealed that Myc regulates hundreds of ARE-containing (ARED) genes and select AUBPs. Notably, Myc directly suppresses transcription of Tristetraprolin (TTP/ZFP36), an mRNA-destabilizing AUBP, and this circuit is also operational during B lymphopoiesis and IL7 signaling. Importantly, TTP suppression is a hallmark of cancers with MYC involvement, and restoring TTP impairs Myc-induced lymphomagenesis and abolishes maintenance of the malignant state. Further, there is a selection for TTP loss in malignancy; thus, TTP functions as a tumor suppressor. Finally, Myc/TTP-directed control of select cancer-associated ARED genes is disabled during lymphomagenesis. Thus, Myc targets AUBPs to regulate ARED genes that control tumorigenesis.
