Project description:The goal of this experiment was to understand the changes in gene expression in the human basal-like breast cancer cell line HCC1143 following treatment with the MEK inhibitor Trametinib (T), PI3K/mTOR inhibitor BEZ235 (B), the BET inhibition JQ1 (JQ), Trametinib + JQ1 (TJ), or BEZ235 + JQ1(BJ), compared to a DMSO control (D). Samples were treated for 72hr and run in triplicate.

Project description:Nearly 30% of all malignant melanomas harbor somatic mutations in NRAS. However, there are currently no effective targeted therapies for this tumor type. The bromodomain and extra terminal domain (BET) family of proteins are transcriptional regulators that serve as scaffolds to facilitate gene transcription by binding to acetylated lysine residues in the N-terminal tail of histones. BET/BRD proteins have emerged as therapeutic targets in a broad range of tumors. We found that BET proteins are overexpressed in NRAS mutant melanoma, and that high levels of BET family member BRD4 are associated with poor patient survival, suggesting that BRD4 plays a key role in melanoma. Consequently, we hypothesized that these epigenetic regulators constitute potential vulnerabilities that can be exploited for melanoma treatment. We found that genetic or pharmacological inhibition of BET/BRD proteins decreases viability and inhibits proliferation of NRAS mutant melanoma cells, as well as BRAF/MEK-inhibitor resistant melanoma cells harboring concurrent BRAF/NRAS mutations. However, BET inhibitors when used as single agents were either cytostatic (in vitro) or ineffective (in vivo). We therefore evaluated combinations that could maximize the efficacy of BET inhibitors in NRAS mutant melanoma. Here we report that co-targeting BET and MEK synergistically restrained tumor growth and significantly prolonged the survival of NRAS-mutant tumor bearing mice. RNA-sequencing and RPPA analysis revealed that co-treatment with BETi/MEKi synergistically downregulated cell cycle regulators and activated caspase-7. This study demonstrates that combined BET and MEK inhibition elicits robust synergistic therapeutic effects and supports the clinical utility of this combination therapy for NRAS mutant melanoma patients.

Project description:Mutation or deletion of Neurofibromin (NF1), an inhibitor of RAS signaling, frequently occurs in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), supporting therapies that target downstream RAS effectors, such as the RAF-MEK-ERK pathway. However, no comprehensive studies have been carried out testing the efficacy of MEK inhibition in NF1-deficient EOC. Here, we performed a detailed characterization of MEK inhibition in NF1-deficient EOC cell lines using kinome profiling and RNA sequencing. Our studies showed MEK inhibitors were ineffective at providing durable growth inhibition in NF1-deficient cells due to kinome reprogramming. MEKi-mediated destabilization of FOSL1 resulted in induced expression of RTKs and their downstream RAF and PI3K signaling overcoming MEKi therapy. MEKi synthetic enhancement screens identified BRD2 and BRD4 as integral mediators of the MEKi-induced RTK signatures. Inhibition of BET proteins using BET bromodomain inhibitors (BETi) blocked MEKi-induced RTK reprogramming, indicating BRD2 and BRD4 represent promising therapeutic targets in combination with MEKi to block resistance due to kinome reprogramming in NF1-deficient EOC.

Project description:Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a heterogeneous and clinically aggressive disease for which there is no targeted therapy. Here we report the preferential and high sensitivity of TNBCs to BET bromodomain inhibitors such as JQ1 manifested by cell cycle arrest in early G1, apoptosis, and induction of markers of luminal epithelial differentiation in vitro and in vivo. The sensitivity of TNBC and other tumor types to BET inhibition establishes a rationale for clinical investigation, and a motivation to understand mechanisms of resistance. After engendering acquired resistance to BET inhibition in previously sensitive TNBCs, we utilized integrative approaches to identify a unique mechanism of epigenomic resistance to this epigenetic therapy. Resistant cells remain dependent on BRD4, confirmed by RNA interference. However, TNBC cells adapt to BET bromodomain inhibition by re-recruitment of unmutated BRD4 to super-enhancers, now in a bromodomain-independent manner. Proteomic studies of resistant TNBC identify hyper-phosphorylation of BRD4 and strong association with MED1. Together, these studies provide a rationale for BET inhibition in TNBC and argue for combination strategies to anticipate clinical drug resistance.

Project description:Cell atlas projects and high-throughput perturbation screens require single-cell sequencing at a scale that is challenging with current technology. To enable cost-effective single-cell sequencing for millions of individual cells, we developed “single-cell combinatorial fluidic indexing” (scifi). The scifi-RNA-seq assay combines one-step combinatorial pre-indexing of entire transcriptomes inside permeabilized cells with subsequent single-cell RNA-seq using microfluidics. Pre-indexing allows us to load multiple cells per droplet and bioinformatically demultiplex their individual expression profiles. Thereby, scifi-RNA-seq massively increases the throughput of droplet-based single-cell RNA-seq, and it provides a straightforward way of multiplexing thousands of samples in a single experiment. Compared to multi-round combinatorial indexing, scifi-RNA-seq provides an easier, faster, and more efficient workflow. In contrast to cell hashing methods, which flag and discard droplets containing more than one cell, scifi-RNA-seq resolves and retains individual transcriptomes from overloaded droplets.

Project description:We developed a combinatorial indexing strategy to profile the transcriptomes of large numbers of single cells or nuclei (Single cell Combinatorial Indexing RNA-seq or sci-RNA-seq). We applied sci-RNA-seq to profile nearly 50,000 cells from C. elegans at the L2 stage, effectively ~56-fold “shotgun cellular coverage” of its somatic cell composition.
