项目摘要

Project Summary This Diversity Supplement application builds on a parental grant studying the genetic alterations at the RB transcriptional corepressor 1 (RB1) gene that are associated with increased mortality, metastasis and poor response to chemotherapy in osteosarcoma. We recently identified ubiquitin-like, containing PHD and RING finger domains-1 (UHRF1), as a key epigenetic regulator that is upregulated in osteosarcoma. Our preliminary studies suggest that UHRF1 overexpression results in increased cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and metastasis. For this supplement, we propose to expand the scope of our parental grant to elucidate the mechanisms through which UHRF1 overexpression in osteosarcoma contributes to tumor invasion and metastasis. We propose to examine the role of UHRF1 on the interaction between cancer cells and the tumor microenvironment through exosome alterations. Exosomes have been identified as an important factor in the modulation of cancer and stromal cells towards induction of a metastatic phenotype. We hypothesize that UHRF1 overexpression contributes to altered exosome formation and/or exosomal cargo and this contributes to metastasis in osteosarcoma. Overall, this research proposal will broaden our understanding of the role of UHRF1 in osteosarcoma metastasis.

项目摘要这种多样性补充应用是基于父母赠款，研究了RB的遗传改变转录核心1（RB1）基因与死亡率增加，转移和差有关对骨肉瘤化疗的反应。我们最近确定了类似泛素的样子，包含博士和环 Finger域1（UHRF1），是骨肉瘤中上调的关键表观遗传调节剂。我们的初步研究表明，UHRF1的过表达导致细胞增殖，迁移，侵袭和转移。对于此补充，我们建议扩大我们父母赠款的范围，以阐明骨肉瘤中UHRF1过表达的机制有助于肿瘤侵袭和转移。我们建议检查UHRF1对癌细胞与肿瘤之间相互作用的作用微环境通过外泌体改变。外泌体已被确定为调节癌症和基质细胞以诱导转移性表型。我们假设UHRF1 过表达会导致外泌体形成和/或外泌体货物的改变，这有助于骨肉瘤的转移。总体而言，这项研究建议将扩大我们对UHRF1作用的理解在骨肉瘤转移中。
