Trancriptome sequencing of BGC823 with or without ZBTB7A knockdown

ABSTRACT: Tumor budding (TB), clusters of less than 5 cells dissociated from the tumor mass, is reported to predict nodal involvement and recurrence in multiple human cancers including gastric carcinoma (GC). However, it is not clear how TB forms. In this study, we determined the expression pattern of GAGE12I, CTNND1, Kif26B, CREB1 and ZBTB7A in human GC samples by IHC attempting to find any TB-related markers. The results showed that TB could predict lymph node metastasis and is negatively associated with the overall survival of GC patients. The expression of ZBTB7A in the tumor margin (invasive front), rather than the other four markers, was much higher than that inside the tumor and was positively correlated with TB score. Moreover, patients with higher marginal ZBTB7A expression had poorer prognosis. ZBTB7A could enhance the migration and invasion capabilities of GC cells in vitro. Mechanically, ZBTB7A might activate EGFR-MAPK-ERK and PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway, which resulted in epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) to induce the formation of TB. Thus, we concluded that higher ZBTB7A expression in the tumor margin may contribute to the dissociation of tumor cells from the tumor mass to form TB by initiating EMT via EGFR-MEK-ERK and PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway.

Phosphoproteome profiling reveals molecular mechanisms of growth factor mediated kinase inhibitor resistance in cancer cells

Project description:Although substantial progress has been made regarding the use of molecularly targeted cancer therapies, resistance almost invariably develops and presents a major clinical challenge. To evade the selective pressure of kinase inhibitors, cells often activate bypass signaling tracks and become intrinsically resistant. Apart from intrinsic cellular adaptation, the tumor microenvironment can rescue cancer cells by growth factor mediated induction of pro-survival signaling. We show that EGFR inhibition by Gefitinib is counteracted by several growth factors notably FGF2 and we assessed the global consequences of FGF2-mediated Gefitinib resistance at the proteome and phosphoproteome level. Multiplexed tandem mass tag (TMT) peptide labeling in conjunction with high resolution tandem mass spectrometry allowed the identification and quantification of ~22,000 phosphopeptides and ~8,800 proteins in biological triplicates without missing values. The data shows that Gefitinib treated cells are forced into developing intrinsic resistance by reprogramming of the proteome and phosphoproteome, whereas co-treatment with FGF2 largely reverted these changes to resemble the molecular composition of untreated cells. Simultaneous small molecule EGFR and FGFR inhibition overcomes FGF2 induced Gefitinib resistance and the phosphoproteomic experiments further prioritized the RAS/MEK/ERK axis as well as the PI3K/mTOR axis for combination treatment. Consequently, the MEK inhibitor Trametinib prevented FGF2-mediated survival of EGFR inhibitor resistant cells when used in combination with Gefitinib. Surprisingly, the pase II PI3K/mTOR inhibitor GSK2126458 reversed resistance mediated by all four growth factors tested, making it an interesting candidate for targeting the survival signals provided by the tumor microenvironment.

AXL mediates resistance to PI3Kα inhibition by activating the EGFR/PKC/mTOR axis in head and neck and esophageal squamous cell carcinomas.

Project description:Phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K)-α inhibitors are clinically active in squamous carcinoma (SCC) of the head and neck (H&N) bearing mutations or amplification of PIK3CA. We aimed to identify potential mechanism of resistance and have observed that SCCs cells overcome the antitumor effects of the PI3Kα inhibitor BYL719 by maintaining PI3K-independent activation of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). The persistent mTOR activation is mediated by the tyrosine kinase receptor AXL. We found that AXL is overexpressed in resistant tumors, dimerizes with the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), phosphorylates EGFR tyrosine 1173, resulting in activation of phospholipase Cγ (PLCγ)- protein kinase C (PKC) that, in turn, activates mTOR. Finally, simultaneous treatment with PI3Kα and either EGFR, AXL or PKC inhibitors reverts this resistance. RNAseq from acquired resistant cells CAL33B, K180B were compared to their parental counterpart CAL33 and K180, respectively. K180 is a shortcut of KYSE180, and B stands for BYL719. Duplicate of parental sensitive cells and K180B, and triplicate for CAL33B.

Copy number profiling of 92 human lung tumors on Affymetrix 100K SNP arrays

Project description:Copy number profiling of 92 human lung tumors on Affymetrix 100K SNP arrays was conducted in order to assess the interaction of common genomic alterations with response to targeted anti-cancer therapeutics. Class 1 phosphatidylinositol 3' kinase (PI3K) plays a major role in cell proliferation and survival in a wide variety of human cancers. Here we investigate biomarker strategies for PI3K pathway inhibitors in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Molecular profiling of NSCLC tumor samples showed that copy number gains in PIK3CA and total loss of PTEN protein were common in squamous cell carcinoma samples, whereas LKB1 loss and mutations in KRAS and EGFR were common in adenocarcinomas. A panel of NSCLC cell lines characterized for alterations in the PI3K pathway was screened with PI3K and dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitors to assess the preclinical predictive value of candidate biomarkers. Cell lines harboring pathway alterations (RTK activation, PI3K mutation or amplification, PTEN loss) were exquisitely sensitive to the PI3K inhibitor GDC-0941. A dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor had broader activity across the cell line panel and in tumor xenografts. The combination of GDC-0941 with paclitaxel, erlotinib, or a MEK inhibitor had greater effects on cell viability than PI3K inhibition alone. CONCLUSIONS: Candidate biomarkers for PI3K inhibitors have predictive value in preclinical models and show histology-specific alterations in primary tumors, suggesting that distinct biomarker strategies may be required in squamous compared with non-squamous NSCLC patient populations. Lung tumors were profiled on Affymetrix GeneChip Mapping 100K Set Arrays Tumor samples were profiled for copy number without any treatment of the tumor.

Effect of a dual specificity PI3K/mTOR inhibitor, NVP-BEZ235, on human ovarian cancer cell lines grown in 3D culture

Project description:Analysis of the effects of a dual specificity PI3K/mTOR inhibitor on two human ovarian cell lines, OV2008 and MCAS. Results provide insight into the adaptive response to PI3K/mTOR inhibition in matrix attached ovarian cancer cells. The PI3K/mTOR-pathway is the most commonly deregulated pathway in epithelial cancers and thus represents an important target for cancer therapeutics. Here we show that dual inhibition of PI3K/mTOR in ovarian cancer 3D-spheroids leads to death of the inner matrix-deprived cells, whereas matrix-attached cells are resistant. Resistance is associated with up-regulation of a cellular survival program that involves both FOXO-regulated transcription and a novel translational resistance mechanism resulting in specific up-regulation of IRES-mediated, cap-independent translation. Inhibition of any of several up-regulated proteins, including Bcl-2, EGFR, or IGF1R, abrogates resistance to dual PI3K/mTOR inhibition. These results demonstrate that acute adaptive response to PI3K/mTOR inhibition resembles well-conserved adaptive response to nutrient and growth factor deprivation and how development of rational drug combinations can bypass resistance mechanisms. Total RNA was isolated 6h and 24h after treatment with 1 M-NM-<M NVP-BEZ235 or DMSO vehicle control from 3D grown structures

Comparative study of a mTOR inhibitor, a pan-PI3K inhibitor and a dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor in MCL

Project description:Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway activation contributes to mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) pathogenesis and drug resistance. However, the use of mTOR inhibitors as single agents have shown limited clinical efficacy in relation with drug activation of feedback loops. Selective PI3K inhibition or dual PI3K/mTOR catalytic inhibition are different therapeutic approaches developed to achieve effective pathway blockage. Here, we evaluated the antitumor activity of a mTOR inhibitor, a pan-PI3K inhibitor and a dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor in primary MCL cells. We found that dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor modulated angiogenesis, tumor invasiveness and cytokine signaling compared to a mTOR inhibitor and a pan-PI3K inhibitor in MCL. We used microarrays to compare the effect of these three compounds in MCL and identified distinct classes of down-regulated genes modulated by each compound. Global RNA expression in primary cells from two MCL patients treated with a mTOR inhibitor, a pan-PI3K inhibitor and a dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor for 8 hours

Functional RNAi Screens Define Distinct Protein Kinase Vulnerabilities in EGFR-Dependent HNSCC Cell Lines

Project description:Cetuximab, an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitory antibody, is an approved therapy for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Despite the EGFR dependency of HNSCC, cetuximab alone or combined with radio- or chemotherapy fails to yield long-term control or cures. Herein, we submitted EGFR-dependent HNSCC cell lines to RNAi-based functional genomics screens to identify, in an unbiased fashion, essential protein kinases for growth and survival as well as synthetic lethal targets for combined inhibition with EGFR inhibitors. MTOR and ERBB3 were identified as the highest ranking essential kinase hits. MTOR dependency was confirmed by distinct shRNAs and high sensitivity of the cell lines to AZD8055 while ERBB3 dependency was validated by shRNA-mediated silencing. Further, a synthetic lethal kinome shRNA screen with a pan-ERBB inhibitor, AZD8931, identified multiple components of the ERK MAPK pathway, consistent with ERK reactivation and/or incomplete ERK pathway inhibition in response to EGFR inhibitor monotherapy. As validation, distinct MEK inhibitors yielded synergistic growth inhibition when combined with the EGFR inhibitors, gefitinib and AZD8931. The findings identify ERBB3 and MTOR as important pharmacological vulnerabilities in HNSCC and support combining MEK and EGFR inhibitors to enhance efficacy of agents such as cetuximab.

TMEM65 promotes gastric tumorigenesis by targeting YWHAZ to activate PI3K-Akt-mTOR pathway and is a therapeutic target

Project description:Copy number alterations are crucial for the development of gastric cancer (GC). Here, we identified Transmembrane Protein 65 (TMEM65) amplification by genomic hybridization microarray to profile copy-number variations in GC. TMEM65 mRNA level was significantly up-regulated in GC compared to adjacent normal tissues, and was positively associated with TMEM65 amplification. High TMEM65 expression or DNA copy number predicts poor prognosis in GC. Furtherly, GC patients with TMEM65 amplification or overexpression significantly associated with shortened survival. Ectopic expression of TMEM65 significantly promoted cell proliferation, cell cycle progression and cell migration/invasion ability, but inhibited apoptosis. Conversely, silencing of TMEM65 in GC cells showed opposite abilities on cell function in vitro and suppressed tumor growth and lung metastasis in vitro. Moreover, TMEM65 depletion by VNP-encapsulated TMEM65-siRNA significantly suppressed tumor growth in subcutaneous xenograft model. Mechanistically, TMEM65 exerted oncogenic effects through activating PI3K-Akt-mTOR signaling pathway, as evidenced of increased expression of key regulators (p-Akt, p-GSK-3β, p-mTOR) by Western blot. YWHAZ (Tyrosine 3-Monooxygenase/Tryptophan 5-Monooxygenase) was identified as a direct downstream effector of TMEM65. Direct binding of TMEM65 with YWHAZ in the cytoplasm inhibited ubiquitin-mediated degradation of YWHAZ. Moreover, oncogenic effect of TMEM65 was partly dependent on YWHAZ. In conclusion, TMEM65 promotes gastric tumorigenesis by activating PI3K-Akt-mTOR signaling via cooperating with YWHAZ. TMEM65 overexpression may serve as an independent new biomarker and is a therapeutic target in GC.

Dual Blockade of the Lipid Kinase PIP4Ks and Mitotic Pathways Leads to Cancer-selective Lethality

Project description:We discover drugs with a dual-inhibitory mechanism provides a unique pharmacological strategy against cancer and evidence of cross-activation between the Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK and PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathways via a Ras˧PIK3IP1˧PI3K signaling network Achieving robust cancer-specific lethality is the ultimate clinical goal. Here we identify a compound with dual-inhibitory properties, named a131, that selectively kills cancer cells, while protecting normal cells. Through an unbiased CETSA screen, we identify the PIP4K lipid kinases as the target of a131. Ablation of the PIP4Ks generates a phenocopy of the pharmacological effects of PIP4K inhibition by a131. Notably, PIP4Ks inhibition by a131 causes reversible growth arrest in normal cells by transcriptionally up-regulating PIK3IP1, a suppressor of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway. Strikingly, Ras activation overrides a131-induced PIK3IP1 up-regulation and activates the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway. Consequently, Ras-transformed cells override a131-induced growth arrest and enter mitosis where a131’s ability to de-cluster supernumerary centrosomes in cancer cells eliminates Ras-activated cells through mitotic catastrophe. Our discovery of drugs with a dual-inhibitory mechanism provides a unique pharmacological strategy against cancer and evidence of cross-activation between the Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK and PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathways via a Ras˧PIK3IP1˧PI3K signaling network.
