Genome-wide transcriptome analysis of PAK4 inhibition/knockdown in human bladder cancer cell line VMCUB1

Project description:Using multi-omic analyses, we identified PAK4 (P21 (RAC1) Activated Kinase 4) amplification and overexpression of Kinase PAK4 in a subset of bladder cancers. We confirmed the role of PAK4 in bladder cancer cell proliferation and invasion by in vitro experiments. Furthermore, our studies showed that PAK4 inhibitor is effective in curtailing bladder cancer cell growth. In order to understand the effect of PAK4 inhibition and knockdown on bladder cancer transcriptome, we performed RNA-sequencing of PAK4 siRNA transfected and PAK4 inhibitor (PF-3758309) treated bladder cancer cells (VM-CUB1). Analyses led to identification of direct targets of PAK4 in bladder cancer and associated pathways.

PAK4 suppresses RELB to prevent senescence-like growth arrest in breast cancer

Project description:Overcoming cellular growth restriction, including the evasion of cellular senescence, is a hallmark of cancer. We report that PAK4 is overexpressed in all human breast cancer subtypes and associated with poor patient outcome. In mice, MMTV-PAK4 overexpression promotes spontaneous mammary cancer, while PAK4 gene depletion delays MMTV-PyMT driven tumors. Importantly, PAK4 prevents senescence-like growth arrest in breast cancer cells in vitro, in vivo and ex vivo, but is not needed in non-immortalized cells, while PAK4 overexpression in untransformed human mammary epithelial cells abrogates H-Ras-V12-induced senescence. Mechanistically, a PAK4 – RELB - C/EBPa axis controls the senescence-like growth arrest and a PAK4 phosphorylation residue (RELB-Se151) is critical for RELB-DNA interaction, transcriptional activity and expression of the senescence regulator C/EBPa. These findings establish PAK4 as a promoter of breast cancer that can overcome oncogene-induced senescence and reveal a selective vulnerability of cancer to PAK4 inhibition.

Effect of Pak4 deficiency on transcriptome in liver of mice

Project description:PAK4 has emerged as a promising target for anti-cancer drug development. However, its role in oxidative stress conditions remains elusive. We investigated the effects of PAK4 signaling on hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. To elucidate molecular mechanisms, we performed RNA-sequencing analysis using littermate WT and hepatocyte-specific Pak4 KO mice in I/R condition. Transcriptomic analysis enabled us to find the main signaling nodes altered by Pak4 deficiency in close association with antioxidant response.

Functional role and therapeutic targeting of p21-associated kinase 4 (PAK4) in Multiple Myeloma

Project description:Dysregulated oncogenic serine/threonine kinases play a pathological role in diverse forms of malignancies, including multiple myeloma (MM), and thus represent potential therapeutic targets. Here, we evaluated the biological and functional role of p21-activated kinase 4 (PAK4), and its potential as a new target in MM for clinical applications. PAK4 promoted MM cell growth and survival via activation of MM survival signaling pathways, including the MEK-ERK pathway. Furthermore, treatment with orally bioavailable PAK4 allosteric modulator (KPT-9274) significantly impacted MM cell growth and survival in a large panel of MM cell lines and primary MM cells alone and in the presence of bone marrow microenvironment. Intriguingly, we have identified FGFR3 as a novel binding partner of PAK4 and observed significant activity of KPT-9274 against t(4;14)-positive MM cells. These data support PAK4 as an oncogene in myeloma, and provide the rationale for the clinical evaluation of PAK4 modulator in myeloma.

Characterization of the PAK4 interactome by quantitative mass spectrometry

Project description:p21-activated kinase 4 (PAK4) is a serine/threonine kinase critical during development and with a proposed role in cancer and related cellular processes, including cell proliferation, survival and migration. However, while a limited number of PAK4-interacting proteins have been identified, the PAK4 interactome has not been systematically characterized. Here, we employed iTRAQ-based quantitative mass spectrometry of PAK4-immunioprecipitations from three distinct isolated cellular fractions to comprehensively profile the PAK4 interactome in human. These data will provide a valuable resource for further investigations on the role of PAK4 in physiology and disease.

Discovery of PDE7B as a novel effector of GBM growth by computational deconvolution of an in vitro physical coculture system

Project description:Cell-to-cell interactions between tumor cells and their microenvironment are critical determinants of tumor tissue biology and therapeutic responses. Interactions between glioblastoma (GBM) cells and endothelial cells (ECs) establish a purported stem cell niche. We hypothesized that genes that mediate these interactions would be important, particularly as therapeutic targets. Using a novel computational approach to deconvoluting expression data from mixed physical coculture of GBM cells and ECs, we identified upregulation of the cAMP specific phosphodiesterase PDE7B in GBM cells in response to ECs. We further found that elevated PDE7B expression occurs in most GBM cases and has a negative effect on survival. PDE7B overexpression resulted in the expansion of a stem-like cell subpopulation, increased tumor aggressiveness, and increased growth in an intracranial GBM model. This deconvolution algorithm provides a new tool for cancer biology, and these results identify PDE7B as a therapeutic target in GBM. 3 replicates from U87 monocultures, 3 replicates from HBMEC monocultures, 3 replicates from U87-HBMEC cocultures

Aberrant L-Fucose accumulation and increased core fucosylation are metabolic liabilities in mesenchymal glioblastoma (Xenograft assays)

Project description:<p>Glioblastoma (GBM) is a common and deadly form of brain tumor in adults. Dysregulated metabolism in GBM offers an opportunity to deploy metabolic interventions as precise therapeutic strategies. To identify the molecular drivers and the modalities by which different molecular subgroups of GBM exploit metabolic rewiring to sustain tumor progression, we interrogated the transcriptome, the metabolome, and the glycoproteome of human subgroup-specific GBM sphere-forming cells (GSC). L-fucose abundance and core fucosylation activation were elevated in mesenchymal (MES) compared with proneural GSCs; this pattern was retained in subgroup-specific xenografts and in subgroup-affiliated human patient samples. Genetic and pharmacological inhibition of core fucosylation significantly reduced tumor growth in MES GBM preclinical models. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS)-based glycoproteomic screening indicated that most MES-restricted core-fucosylated proteins are involved in therapeutically relevant GBM pathological processes, such as extracellular matrix interaction, cell adhesion, and integrin-mediated signaling. Selective L-fucose accumulation in MES GBMs was observed using preclinical minimally invasive PET, implicating this metabolite as a potential subgroup-restricted biomarker.Overall, these findings indicate that L-fucose pathway activation in MES GBM is a subgroup-specific dependency that could provide diagnostic markers and actionable therapeutic targets.</p><h4><strong>SIGNIFICANCE: </strong>Metabolic characterization of subgroup-specific glioblastoma (GBM) sphere-forming cells identifies the L-fucose pathway as a vulnerability restricted to mesenchymal GBM, disclosing a potential precision medicine strategy for targeting cancer metabolism.</h4>
