Project description:Castration resistance is a lethal form of treatment failure of prostate cancer (PCa) and is associated with ligand-independent activation of the androgen receptor (AR). It is only partially understood how the AR mediates survival and castration-resistant growth of PCa upon androgen deprivation. We investigated integrative genomics using a patient-derived xenograft model recapitulating acquired, AR-dependent castration-resistant PCa (CRPC). Sequencing of chromatin immunoprecipitation using an anti-AR antibody (AR-ChIP seq) revealed distinct profiles of AR binding site (ARBS) in androgen-dependent and castration-resistant xenograft tumors compared with those previously reported based on human PCa cells or tumor tissues. An integrative genetic analysis identified several AR-target genes associated with CRPC progression including OPRK1, which harbors ARBS and was upregulated upon androgen deprivation. Loss of function of OPRK1 retarded the acquisition of castration resistance and inhibited castration-resistant growth of PCa both in vitro and in vivo. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that expression of OPRK1, a G protein-coupled receptor, was upregulated in human prostate cancer tissues after preoperative androgen derivation or CRPC progression. These data suggest that OPRK1 is involved in post-castration survival and cellular adaptation process toward castration-resistant progression of PCa, accelerating the clinical implementation of ORPK1-targeting therapy in the management of this lethal disease.

Project description:Persistent androgen receptor (AR) signaling despite low levels of serum androgens has been identified as a critical target for drug discovery in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). As proof of principle that the AR remains relevant in CRPC, 2 AR-targeted agents recently approved by the Food and Drug Administration-abiraterone and enzalutamide-have increased overall survival for patients with CRPC in the setting of prior chemotherapy. This review focuses on the AR and 2 direct antagonists, enzalutamide and ARN-509. These next-generation AR antagonists offer great promise for patients with advanced disease. Relative to conventional antiandrogens such as bicalutamide, they bind to the receptor with higher affinity, prevent nuclear translocation and DNA binding, and induce apoptosis without agonist activity in preclinical models. The success of these AR-targeted agents in the clinic has changed the landscape of therapy for patients with CRPC, and further therapeutic options building on this platform are currently in development.

Project description:Androgen receptor (AR) and its variants play vital roles in development and progression of prostate cancer. To clarify the mechanisms involved in the enhancement of their actions would be crucial for understanding the process in prostate cancer and castration-resistant prostate cancer transformation. Here, we provided the evidence to show that pre-mRNA processing factor 6 (PRPF6) acts as a key regulator for action of both AR full length (AR-FL) and AR variant 7 (AR-V7), thereby participating in the enhancement of AR-FL and AR-V7-induced transactivation in prostate cancer. In addition, PRPF6 is recruited to cis-regulatory elements in AR target genes and associates with JMJD1A to enhance AR-induced transactivation. PRPF6 also promotes expression of AR-FL and AR-V7. Moreover, PRPF6 depletion reduces tumor growth in prostate cancer-derived cell lines and results in significant suppression of xenograft tumors even under castration condition in mouse model. Furthermore, PRPF6 is obviously highly expressed in human prostate cancer samples. Collectively, our results suggest PRPF6 is involved in enhancement of oncogenic AR signaling, which support a previously unknown role of PRPF6 during progression of prostate cancer and castration-resistant prostate cancers.

Project description:Modification of the furan ring of salvinorin A (1), the main active component of Salvia divinorum, has resulted in novel neoclerodane diterpenes with opioid receptor affinity and activity. Conversion of the furan ring to an aldehyde at the C-12 position (5) has allowed for the synthesis of analogues with new carbon-carbon bonds at that position. Previous methods for forming these bonds, such as Grignard and Stille conditions, have met with limited success. We report a palladium catalyzed Liebeskind-Srogl cross-coupling reaction of a thioester and a boronic acid that occurs at neutral pH and ambient temperature to produce ketone analogs at C-12. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported usage of the Liebeskind-Srogl reaction to diversify a natural product scaffold. We also describe a one-step protocol for the conversion of 1 to 12-epi-1 (3) through microwave irradiation. Previously, this synthetically challenging process has required multiple steps. Additionally, we report in this study that alkene 9 and aromatic analogues 12, 19, 23, 25, and 26 were discovered to retain affinity and selectivity at kappa opioid receptors (KOP). Finally, we report that the furan-2-yl analog of 1 (31) has similar affinity to 1. Collectively, these findings suggest that different aromatic groups appended directly to the decalin core may be well tolerated by KOP receptors, and may generate further ligands with affinity and activity at KOP receptors.

Project description:Kappa Opioid receptors（KORs） belong to family A of G-protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs), and the involvement of their ligands in analgesia and sedation has been extensively studied. KORs, which are expressed in the central and peripheral nervous systems are well known to exert potent anti-nociceptive effects by negatively modulating excitatory neurotransmission. The present study reveals that acute activation of KOR weaken SERT function via protein kinase B/Akt (Akt) and calcium calmodulin dependent kinase II (CaMKII) dependent signaling pathways. Therefore, studying phosphorylation will be helpful to elucidate the cellular mechanisms and downstream effector(s). Studies correlating the dysphoric effects of KOR agonists to the G-protein–independent activation of the p38 MAPK pathway suggest that identification of KOR agonists biased to G-protein–mediated signaling could lead to the development of therapeutics with reduced side effects. Therefore, to better understand the cellular mechanisms and downstream effector(s) by which KOR ligands produce these effects, we employed dimethyl labeling quantitative proteomic approach in this study. In this study, three monoclonal HEK293T cell lines with KOR over-expression were successfully constructed as our experimental models. Then, mass spectrometry-based quantitative approach, based on dimethyl labeling and TiO2 beads-coupled phosphopeptides enrichment, was utilized to analyze the KOR-mediated dynamic phosphorylation network in these three KOR-over-expressed monoclonal cell lines disturbed by LPK-26 or U50,488 treatments. Further Substrate-kinase prediction analysis of 212 up-regulated phosphosites indicated that 18 kinases, such as AKT1 and p70S6K, were involved in the up-regulation of KOR phosphorylation. The up-regulated phosphorylation of AKT1 and p70S6K were further confirmed by western blot, which was consistent with our mass spectrometry results. In summary, quantitative phosphoproteomic study of KOR-over-expressed cells upon agonist stimulation paves the way to systematical investigation of KOR-mediated phosphorylation network dynamics, which will be helpful to research about targeted therapy of KOR related diseases and mechanism study of analgesia addiction.

Project description:It is now understood that persistent activation of the androgen receptor (AR) signaling pathway often underlies the development of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). This realization led to renewed interest in targeting the AR and ultimately to the development of the potent next-generation AR-directed agents abiraterone and enzalutamide. While these drugs prolong survival in men with CRPC, they are unfortunately not curative. Perhaps not surprisingly, evidence points to persistent AR signaling as one of the key drivers by which resistances to these agents develops. In this context, activation of the AR signaling program can occur through a number of molecular adaptations, including alterations leading to persistent canonical AR signaling (e.g., AR amplification/overexpression, elucidations/concentration of intratumoral androgens), activation of the AR program via feedback pathways (e.g., AKT/mTOR/Pi3K, HER2/Neu), and activation of the AR program via mutation or substitution (e.g., AR ligand binding domain mutation; AR splice variants; glucocorticoid receptor signaling). This review will provide an overview of the more clinical relevant (i.e., druggable) pathways that have been implicated in the emergence of drug resistance in men with CRPC and highlight some of the ongoing efforts towards developing therapeutics to impair these mechanisms.
