Transcriptional regulation of oncogenic cellular plasticity in the intestinal epithelium - Project summary: The rewiring of transcriptional networks following oncogenic mutations is a poorly understood phenomenon. By integrating the two most commonly deregulated signaling pathways found in colon cancer, I have created mouse models to study the transcriptional programs that initiate and promote oncogenesis. The goal of the proposed project is to understand transcriptional regulation of tumor initiation and progression in vivo. The project is based on the hypothesis that the transcriptional program that regulate cellular plasticity drive and the maintain oncogenesis in vivo. Results from the proposed project will greatly impact the efforts to understand the mechanism of cellular plasticity that drive and maintain oncogenic plasticity. The proposal seeks to address two specific aims: 1) Determine the transcriptional program that regulates cellular plasticity in an inducible Smad4 knockout-β-catenin gain of function mutant mouse model, and 2) Determine the extent to which Smad4 functions as a gatekeeper of Wnt signaling, which drive tumor progression. The proposal will reveal the molecular function of Smad4 in suppressing cellular plasticity, thus enabling better understanding of oncogenesis and elucidate the transcriptional mechanism regulating colon tumor progression. The project is innovative in employing inducible mouse models to study cellular plasticity and tumor progression. It relies on the notion that “Stemness” whether it is inherent, or is acquired by the cell drive oncogenesis. Results from the project will impact our understandings on cellular plasticity that drive oncogenesis, and inform decisions on devising therapeutic strategies.
