- W2017907154 abstract "CD30, as a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF. receptor family, is expressed on the surface of activated lymphoid cells. CD30 overexpression is a characteristic of lymphoproliferative diseases such as Hodgkin's/non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, embryonal carcinoma, and a number of Th2-associated diseases. The CD30 gene has been mapped to a region of the murine genome that is involved in susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus. Functionally, CD30 may play a role in the deletion of autoreactive T cells. We were interested in determining the molecular nature of CD30 overexpression. Sequence comparison has revealed significant identity between the TATA-less human and murine CD30 promoters; they share a number of common consensus binding motifs. Transfection assays identified three regions of transcriptional importance; the region between position −1.2 kb and −336 bp, containing a CCAT microsatellite sequence, a conserved Sp1 site at positions −43 to −38, and a downstream promoter element (DPE) at positions +24 to +29. EMSA and DNase I footprinting showed specific DNA-protein interactions of the CD30 promoter with the Sp1 site and the CCAT repeat region. The DPE element was shown to be essential for start site selection. We conclude that the conserved Sp1 site at −43 to −38 is associated with maximum reporter gene activity, the DPE element is required for start site selection, and the CCAT tetranucleotide repeats act to repress transcription. We also have shown that the microsatellite is multiallelic, when we screened a random healthy population. Further studies are required to determine whether microsatellite instability in the repressor predisposes susceptible individuals to CD30 overexpression.

We have identified a number of functionally important regulatory regions, including an Sp1 element in the minimal promoter and a downstream promoter element (DPE) within the initiator, which is required for start site selection. In addition, the discovery of a polymorphic, upstream tetranucleotide repeat that binds proteins acting to repress transcriptional activity of the CD30 promoter, may implicate this region in the dysregulation of CD30 expression in neoplastic cells. Cultured cell lines were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (Bethesda, MD). All cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum, 2 mmol/L l-glutamine, 100 U/ml penicillin, and 100 μg/ml streptomycin. Cells were incubated at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO2. Jurkat T cells were transfected by electroporation, using a BioRad (Hercules, CA) Gene Pulser at 240 V, 960 μF. Approximately 4 × 106 cells in a final volume of 400 μl were cotransfected with 10 μg of each test construct and 300 ng of control plasmid pRL-TK. Cells were cultured for 32 hours after transfection in 5 ml complete media before preparation of cellular extracts. Cells were harvested, washed twice in phosphate-buffered saline, and lysed in 300 μl of passive lysis buffer (Promega Corp., Madison, WI). Promoter activity of constructs and controls was measured using the Dual Luciferase Assay kit (Promega), following the manufacturer's instructions. Total RNA was isolated from Jurkat T cells transfected with either the −336 CD30/luciferase construct or the DPE downstream mutant, using the RNasol B method (Geneworks, Adelaide, Australia). A fragment of the CD30 promoter from −83 to +167 plus 153 bp (bp) of the luciferase gene derived from the WT CD30/luciferase construct was subcloned into pGEM-3ZF+ (Promega), linearized with an enzyme distal to the promoter, and used as a template for the T7 MAXI Script in Vitro Transcription Kit (Ambion, Austin, TX) to generate an antisense riboprobe. RNase protection assays were performed on 50 μg total RNA, using the Hybspeed RPA kit (Ambion). Protected fragments were analyzed on a 6. denaturing polyacrylamide/urea gel. Gels were dried and exposed to X-ray film. A 3.7-kb CD30 DNA fragment spanning the region from approximately −3500 to +199 relative to the major transcription start site was generated by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) from a plasmid containing the human CD30 promoter. This fragment was directionally cloned, via SacI and HindIII sites in the primers, into the polylinker of pGL3-Basic (Promega) to generate the wild-type CD30 reporter construct. The Quick-Change Site-Directed Mutagenesis Kit (Stratagene, La Jolla, CA) was used to introduce KpnI or SacI restriction sites at different positions within the wild-type construct to generate a series of mutant constructs. Mutated plasmids were subsequently digested with SacI or KpnI and religated to generate deletion constructs. The microsatellite region of the CD30 promoter (∼400 bp) was isolated from the CD30 promoter by digestion with KpnI and cloned upstream from the SV40 promoter in the plasmid pGL3-Promoter (Promega) to generate a heterologous promoter construct. All DNA used in transfections was prepared using the Qiafilter plasmid maxi kit (Qiagen GmbH, Hilden, Germany), and all constructs were checked by sequencing. Nuclear extracts were prepared according to the method of Li et al.43Li YC Ross J Scheppler JA Franza Jr, BR An in vitro transcription analysis of early responses of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 long terminal repeat to different transcriptional activators.Mol Cell Biol. 1991; 11: 1883-1893Crossref PubMed Scopus (76) Google Scholar For DNase I footprinting, a fragment of the CD30 gene spanning the region from −311 to +152 bp was generated by PCR and labeled with [γ-32P]ATP, using T4 DNA polymerase (Promega). Approximately 10,000 cpm of the labeled DNA fragment was incubated with 25 μg nuclear extract or 5 μg BSA and 1 μg poly(dI-dC) for 20 minutes on ice. Samples were treated with increasing units of DNase I (0.02–0.04 U with BSA and 2–10 U with nuclear extract) at room temperature for 2 minutes. Samples were analyzed using a 6% denaturing polyacrylamide/urea gel. For comparison a G/A ladder of the same end-labeled DNA fragment was generated by Maxam-Gilbert chemistry. Wild-type and mutant double-stranded oligonucleotides representing −57 to −22 of the CD30 promoter or the microsatellite region [(CCAT)5CACCTTATGCAT(CCAT)2' were synthesized for electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA. with a single 5′ G overhang to facilitate end-labeling with [α-32P]dCTP. Nuclear proteins were preincubated on ice with 1 μg poly(dI-dC) in a binding buffer (4. Ficoll, 20 mmol/L HEPES (pH 7.9), 1 mmol/L EDTA, 1 mmol/L DTT, 50 mmol/L KCl, 0.8 μg ssDNA) to give a final reaction volume of 20 μl. For competition assays a 50-fold molar excess of specific or nonspecific competitor, as indicated, was incubated with nuclear extract for 10 minutes on ice before the addition of 32P-labeled oligonucleotide. Nuclear proteins were then incubated with 32P-labeled oligonucleotide (0.32 pmol) for 30 minutes on ice. For supershift assays anti-Sp1 or anti-Sp3 antibody was added after 30 minutes and incubated on ice for 1 hour. Products were analyzed by electrophoresis through a 6% polyacrylamide gel at 150 V. DNA was obtained by mouthwash from seven randomly chosen individuals essentially as described, but with the use of 10% Chelex (Biorad) instead of EDTA.44Lench N Stanier P Williamson R Simple non-invasive method to obtain DNA for gene analysis.Lancet. 1988; 1: 1356-1358Abstract PubMed Scopus (264) Google Scholar An aliquot (1/20th of the total) of DNA was used in a 50-ml PCR reaction with 25 pmol each of the microsatellite flanking primers 30MSF (5′-ACCCATTTACCCACTCACCTGC-3′. and 30MSR (5′-CAACTGGCCTAGGGAGACTGC-3′). The reactions contained 2.0 mmol/L MgCl2, 1× PCR buffer (Promega, Madison, WI), 2 mmol/L dNTPs, and 1 U Taq polymerase (Promega). Reactions were treated as follows: 94°C for 5 minutes; 29 cycles of 94°C for 30s, 60°C for 30s, 72°C for 1 minute; and 72°C for 10 minutes. PCR products were analyzed on 6% nondenaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). To identify DNA elements that control the regulation of CD30 transcription, we subcloned the 5′ flanking region of the human CD30 gene from −3.5 kb to +199 bp into the luciferase expression vector pGL3-Basic. Restriction sites were introduced into the core recognition sequences contained in the full-length CD30/luciferase construct (−3.5 kb) by site-directed mutagenesis to generate mutant/deletion derivatives for transient transfection assays in Jurkat T cells. Potential transcription factor binding sites chosen for mutation included two Sp1 sites, two ETS sites, and an MZF site. The region of the CD30 promoter containing the Sp1 site (−43 to −38) has been previously shown to be highly conserved between human and murine CD30 promoter sequences. Preliminary transfection results also indicate that the region between −90 and −25 is important in driving transcription.34Croager EJ Muir TM Abraham LJ Analysis of the human and mouse promoter region of the non-Hodgkin's lymphoma-associated CD30 gene.J Interferon Cytokine Res. 1998; 18: 915-920PubMed Google Scholar Analysis of transient transfection results showed that the full-length −3.5-kb construct was able to direct low-level expression of the luciferase reporter in Jurkat T cells as illustrated in Figure 1. Deletion of DNA sequences between −3.5 kb to −1.2 kb had no effect on promoter activity. However, deletion of the sequence between −1.2 kb and −336 resulted in a 3.5-fold increase in promoter activity (Figure 1A). This result suggests that the region contained strong repressor activity. Further sequential deletion of sequences between −336 and −90 had little effect on promoter activity. Deletion of the region between −90 and −40 had a dramatic effect on promoter activity and resulted in a decrease in activity to the level of the full-length construct and confirmed the presence of strong positive regulatory elements in the immediate upstream region containing the Sp1 site. Results generated from transfection of mutant constructs in Jurkat T cells (Figure 1B) indicated that mutations within the upstream ETS sites (−238 to −233 and −158 to −153) had little effect on expression. However, mutation of the highly conserved Sp1 site at position −43 to −38 had a profound effect on transcription (Figure 1B) and completely abolished activity to the level seen with the luciferase vector alone (data not shown), suggesting that proteins binding within this region are essential for CD30 expression. This result is consistent with data generated from analysis of the 5′ CD30 deletion series, where deletion of this potential Sp1 site essentially abolishes high-level transcription. To define DNA-protein interactions in the region surrounding the conserved Sp1 site, we performed in vitro DNase I footprint assays, using a fragment from −311 to +152 of the CD30 promoter as a probe. Three major regions of protection were identified in the presence of Jurkat T-cell nuclear extract. These regions encompassed nucleotides −159 to −149, −142 to −128, and −44 to −28 (Figure 2A). The region spanning −44 to −28 contains the conserved Sp1 site, which appears to be essential for high-level expression of the −3.5-kb CD30/luciferase construct. The two upstream regions (−164 to −148 and −144 to −131) both contain sites mutated in the transfection experiments; however, the mutations did not appear to alter basal transcription levels (Figure 1B). A double-stranded oligonucleotide probe, representing the protected region from −44 to −28 of the CD30 promoter, was used in EMSA to analyze the interaction of this region with Jurkat T-cell nuclear proteins. Six major complexes (a–f) were formed between the probe and nuclear proteins (Figure 2B, lane 1). All of these complexes could be competed away by using a 50-fold molar excess of unlabeled probe (Figure 2B, lane 2). Complexes a and b could be completely competed away by using a 50-fold molar excess of consensus Sp1 GC and GT box sequences, suggesting that complexes a and b recognized Sp1-binding sequences (Figure 2B, lanes 3 and 4). An unrelated GC-rich oligonucleotide sequence (NI) was able to compete for complex d and f binding but was less efficient at competing away complexes a–c (Figure 2B, lane 5). To determine whether members of the Sp family of transcription factors were involved in formation of complexes a and b, the DNA protein complexes, formed during the binding reaction, were incubated in the presence of either anti-Sp1 or anti-Sp3 antibodies. Results indicated that complexes a and b were supershifted with the Sp1 antibody, suggesting that Sp1 formed part of these complexes (Figure 2B, lane 6). No shift was seen with the Sp3 antibody (lane 7), indicating that the complexes a and b were antigenically related to Sp1 specifically. To further characterize the nature of complexes c–e, mutated versions of the EMSA oligonucleotide were designed and used to identify the relative binding position of the observed complexes. Three mutated oligonucleotides were generated (M1, M2, M3) and used as probes or competitors in EMSAs with Jurkat T-cell extracts (Figure 3).
