Project description:SPOP is a ubiquitin ligase adaptor frequently mutated in prostate cancer. It is involved in ubiquitination and degradation of substrate proteins. We examined the impact of wild-type and mutant SPOP on the transcriptional profile of prostate cancer cells. We cloned several naturally occurring (in human prostate cancer) SPOP mutants and expressed the corresponding constructs in prostate cancer cells. Our experimental conditions were: Human prostate cancer cells (LNCaP-Abl), transfected with control vector, SPOP-wt, and any of the following mutants: SPOP-F102C, SPOP-F133V, SPOP-F133L (2-4 biological replicates each). We analyzed their gene expression profiles for differences induced by SPOP-wt vs SPOP-mutant.

Project description:Recurrent point mutations in SPOP define a distinct molecular subclass of prostate cancer. Here, we describe the first mouse model showing that mutant SPOP drives prostate tumorigenesis in vivo. Conditional expression of mutant SPOP in the prostate dramatically altered phenotypes in the setting of Pten loss, with early neoplastic lesions (high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia) with striking nuclear atypia, and invasive poorly differentiated carcinoma. In mouse prostate organoids, mutant SPOP drove increased proliferation and a transcriptional signature consistent with human prostate cancer. Using these models and human prostate cancer samples, we show that SPOP mutation activates both PI3K/mTOR and androgen receptor (AR) signaling, effectively uncoupling the normal negative feedback between these two pathways.

Project description:Bromodomain and extraterminal domain (BET) protein inhibitors are emerging as promising therapeutics of cancers including prostate cancer. The E3 ubiquitin ligase adaptor protein speckle-type POZ protein (SPOP) is implicated in human prostate cancers due to its frequent mutation. Here we demonstrate that SPOP binds to the BET proteins BRD2, BRD3 and BRD4. Wild-type SPOP, but not prostate cancer-associated mutants, promotes polyubiquitination and proteasome degradation of BET proteins by recognizing a common degron motif. BET protein levels are highly elevated in SPOP-mutated prostate cancers in patients. Expression of cancer-derived SPOP mutants upregulates cholesterol biosynthesis genes and confers resistance to the BET inhibitor in cultured prostate cancer cells and tumors in mice, and this effect can be overcome by the AKT inhibitor. Our findings reveal BET proteins as proteolytic targets of SPOP and identify deregulated cholesterol biosynthesis as a downstream event of SPOP mutation-mediated tumorigenesis and therapy resistance in prostate cancer.

Project description:Purpose: Little is known about the interplay of driver mutations that never co-occur within the same cancer cells. The latter scenario has been identified in prostate cancer where recurrent gene fusions involving the oncogenic ERG transcription factor and point mutations in the ubiquitin ligase adaptor SPOP are strictly mutually exclusive. We show that ERG and mutant SPOP – even though oncogenic on their own – are together synthetic sick. Description: RNA-Seq of lentiviral-transduced VCaP cells with stable knockdown of wild type SPOP (2 x hairpins) or stable overexpression of either wild-type or mutant SPOP (Y87C, F102C, W131G).

Project description:Mutations in SPOP, the gene most frequently point-mutated in primary prostate cancer, are associated with a high degree of genomic instability and deficiency in homologous recombination repair of DNA but the underlying mechanisms. SPOP knockdown leads to spontaneous replication stress and impaired recovery from replication fork stalling. An SPOP interactome analysis shows that wild type (WT) SPOP but not mutant SPOP associates with multiple proteins involved in transcription, mRNA splicing and export. Consistent with the association of SPOP with transcription, splicing and RNA export complexes, the decreased expression of several components of the DNA damage response pathway occurs at the level of transcription.

Project description:Although androgen deprivation therapy triggers a rapid response in men with metastatic prostate cancer, most patients eventually progress to lethal castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) characterized by androgen receptor (AR)-dependent tumor growth despite castrate levels of circulating androgens. Current treatment options for CRPC remain limited and non-curative, rendering improved outcomes dependent on deeper mechanistic insight and new therapeutic targets. In this RNA sequencing study we profiled the transcriptomes of SPOP WT and mutant LNCaP cells before and after androgen deprivation by RNA-sequencing. Using standard criteria (minimum 2-fold change), we identified 981 genes that were differentially expressed in SPOP mutant vs SPOP WT LNCaP cells grown in the absence of androgens . Strikingly, a significant fraction (595 or ~60%) of these genes overlapped with genes (3510 in number) differentially expressed as a function of androgen in WT LNCaP cells, indicating partial restoration of AR signaling in SPOP mutant cells following androgen withdrawal. To determine the contribution of GLI3 to this process, we performed RNA-sequencing following GLI3 knockdown in androgen-deprived SPOP mutant LNCaP cells. Among the 595 androgen-responsive genes in LNCaP cells whose hormone-independent expression is regulated by SPOP 187 (or ~31%) are also regulated by GLI3, thus revealing a prominent role for GLI3 in restoration of AR signaling in SPOP mutant cells following androgen withdrawal. Enrichment analysis using Gene Ontology Biological Processes revealed these 187 GLI3-regulated genes to be prominently linked with “chromosome segregation”, “DNA replication”, “transcriptional regulation of in G1/S transition”, “regulation of mitotic cell cycle”, and “chromatin silencing” among others, suggesting possible molecular genetic bases for androgen independent growth of SPOP mutant cells. Taken together, these findings indicate that SPOP mutant prostate cancer cells acquire robust androgen-independent growth through reestablishment of an AR signaling axis that involves functional crosstalk with the SHH/GLI3 pathway.
