Project description:Epigenetic drugs exert a wide range of immune-related effects, but have strong drug-specific heterogeneity in immunomodulation, thus hampering selection of the most promising agent for innovative cancer immunotherapy approaches. Here we identified immune-related signatures induced by four classes of epigenetic drugs in melanoma cells to define the most active agent and to understand its biological activity in -vitro, in a pre-clinical model and in clinical samples. Gene modulation, induced by inhibitors of DNA methyltransferases (guadecitabine), histone deacetylases (givinostat), bromodomain and extraterminal domain proteins (JQ1 and OTX-015) and enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (GSK126), was assessed in human melanoma cell lines. All drugs modulated genes belonging to 20 families. Guadecitabine, followed by givinostat, was the most active drug and upregulated >160 immune-related genes characterized by low expression and high methylation. JQ1 and OTX-015 showed predominant inhibitory effects, GSK126 was the least active. A dominant immunomodulatory effect of guadecitabine and JQ1 was observed in combinatorial treatments.

Project description:Purpose: To compare the transcriptomes of HCC1937 vector and wtBRCA1 cells which were treated with OTX-015. Methods: HCC1937 vector and wtBRCA1 cells were treated with 5 micromolar OTX-015 for 24 hours. Total RNA was extracted and processed with NEBNext Ultra Directional RNA Library Prep Kit for cDNA library preparation. The data are in duplicate and raw data were generated by Illumina 2500 sequencer. The Fastq format data were then processed with Tophat for genome mapping. After getting the bam files, they were further analyzed with cuffdiff for gene expression of different groups. Results: From the transcriotome profiling and analysis, we got gene expression data of DMSO control group and OTX-015 treatment group for the HCC1937 BRCA1 isogenic cell lines. Conclusion: The gene expression data revealed the transcriptome variation by OTX-015 treatment.

Project description:The BET (bromodomain and extra terminal) protein family members including BRD4 bind to acetylated lysines on histones and regulate the expression of important oncogenes, e.g., MYC and BCL2. Here we demonstrate the sensitizing effects of the histone hyperacetylation inducing pan-histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDI) panobinostat (PS) on human AML blast progenitor cells (BPCs) to the BET protein inhibitor JQ1. Treatment with JQ1 but not its inactive enantiomer (R-JQ1) was highly lethal against AML BPCs expressing mutant NPM1c+ with or without co-expression of FLT3-ITD, or AML expressing MLL fusion oncoprotein. JQ1 treatment reduced binding of BRD4 and RNA polymerase II to the DNA of MYC and BCL2, and reduced their levels in the AML cells. Co-treatment with JQ1 and the HDAC inhibitor panobinostat (PS) synergistically induced apoptosis of the AML BPCs, but not of normal CD34+ hematopoietic progenitor cells. This was associated with greater attenuation of MYC and BCL2, while increasing p21, BIM and cleaved PARP levels in the AML BPCs. Co-treatment with JQ1 and PS significantly improved the survival of the NOD/SCID mice engrafted with OCI-AML3 or MOLM13 cells (p < 0.01). These findings highlight co-treatment with a BRD4 antagonist and an HDI as a potentially efficacious therapy of AML. Two samples were analyzed (untreated cells, cells treated with JQ1)

Project description:Androgen receptor (AR)-negative castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is highly aggressive and resistant to current therapies. BET bromodomain protein BRD4 binds to super-enhancers (SEs) that drive high expression of oncogenes in many cancers. A BET inhibitor JQ1 has been found to suppress malignant phenotypes of prostate cancer cells, however, the target genes of JQ1 remains largely unknown. Here we show that SE-associated genes specific for AR-negative CRPC PC3 cells include the genes involved in migration and invasion and that JQ1 impairs migration and invasion of PC3 cells. We identified the long non-coding RNA MANCR, which is markedly down-regulated by JQ1 and found that BRD4 binds to the MANCR locus. MANCR knockdown led to a significant decrease in migration and invasion of PC3 cells. RNA sequencing analysis revealed that expression of the genes involved in migration and invasion is altered by MANCR knockdown. In summary, our data demonstrate that MANCR has a critical role for cellular migration and invasion abilities of PC3 cells.

Project description:Background: Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) is an autosomal dominant genetic disease characterized by the development of multiple Schwannomas, usually occurring on both VIIIth (vestibular) cranial nerves. Bromodomain and extra-terminal domain (BET) proteins regulate gene transcription and their activity is required in a variety of cancers including malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST). The use of BET inhibitors as a therapeutic option to treat NF2 schwannomas has not been explored and is the focus of this study. Methods: A panel of normal and NF2-null Schwann cell and schwannoma cell lines were used to characterize the impact of the BET inhibitor JQ1 in vitro and in vivo. The mechanism of action was explored by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) of the BET BRD4, phospho-kinase arrays and immunohistochemistry of BRD4 in human vestibular schwannomas. Results: JQ1 inhibited the proliferation of NF2-null schwannoma and Schwann cell lines in vitro and in vivo. Further, loss of NF2 by CRISPR deletion or siRNA knockdown increased the sensitivity of cells to JQ1. Knock-down experiments identified BRD4 as the BET family member mediating the majority of JQ1 effects on cell proliferation. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated elevated levels of BRD4 protein in human vestibular schwannomas. BRD4 ChIP experiments identified the small G-protein Rac1 and PI3K signaling pathways as sensitive to JQ1. Conclusions: NF2 deficient Schwann cell and schwannoma cells are sensitive to BET inhibition, primarily mediated by BRD4, which is overexpressed in human vestibular schwannomas. BRD4 regulates Rac/Ras and PI3K signaling pathways and inhibition of these pathways by JQ1 impedes NF2 Schwannoma growth. These findings implicate BET inhibition as a therapeutic option for NF2-deficient schwannomas.
