Mesenchymal tumor cells drive adaptive resistance of Trp53-/- breast tumor cells to inactivated mutant Kras

ABSTRACT: As precision medicine increases the response rate of treatment, tumors frequently bypass inhibition and reoccur. In order for treatment to be effective long term, the mechanisms enabling treatment adaptation need to be understood. Here, we report a mouse model that, in the absence of p53 and the presence of oncogenic KrasG12D, develops breast tumors. Upon inactivation of KrasG12D, tumors initially regress and enter remission. Subsequently, the majority of tumors adapt to the withdrawal of KrasG12D expression and return. KrasG12D-independent tumor cells show a strong mesenchymal profile with active MAPK/ERK signaling. Both KrasG12D-dependent and KrasG12D-independent tumors display a high level of genomic instability, and KrasG12D-independent tumors harbor numerous amplified genes that can activate the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway. Our study identifies both epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) and active MAPK/ERK signaling in tumors that adapt to oncogenic KrasG12D withdrawal in a novel Trp53-/- breast cancer mouse model. To achieve long-lasting responses in the clinic to RAS-fueled cancer, treatment will need to focus in parallel on obstructing tumors from adapting to oncogene inhibition.

Yap1 activation enables bypass of oncogenic Kras addiction in pancreatic cancer (part 2)

Project description:Activating mutations in KRAS are among the most frequent events in diverse human carcinomas and are particularly prominent in human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). An inducible KrasG12D-driven mouse model of PDAC has established a critical role for sustained KrasG12D expression in tumor maintenance, providing a model to determine the potential for, and underlying mechanisms of, KrasG12D–independent PDAC recurrence. Here we show that some tumors undergo spontaneous relapse and are devoid of KrasG12D expression and downstream canonical MAPK signaling and instead acquired amplification and overexpression of the transcriptional co-activator Yap1. Functional studies established the role of Yap1 and the transcriptional factor Tead2 in driving KrasG12D–independent tumor maintenance. The Yap1/Tead2 complex acts cooperatively with E2F transcription factors to activate a cell cycle and DNA replication program. Our studies, along with corroborating evidence from human PDAC models, portend a novel mechanism of escape from oncogenic Kras addiction in PDAC.

Exploiting drug addiction mechanisms to select against MAPKi resistant melanoma

Project description:Melanoma resistant to MAPK inhibitors (MAPKi) displays loss of fitness upon experimental MAPKi withdrawal and, clinically, may be resensitized to MAPKi therapy after a drug holiday. Here, we uncovered and therapeutically exploited the mechanisms of MAPKi addiction in MAPKi-resistant BRAF MUT or NRAS MUT melanoma. MAPKi-addiction phenotypes evident upon drug withdrawal spanned transient cell-cycle slowdown to cell-death responses, the latter of which required a robust phosphorylated ERK (pERK) rebound. Generally, drug withdrawal–induced pERK rebound upregulated p38–FRA1–JUNB–CDKN1A and downregulated proliferation, but only a robust pERK rebound resulted in DNA damage and parthanatos-related cell death. Importantly, pharmacologically impairing DNA damage repair during MAPKi withdrawal augmented MAPKi addiction across the board by converting a cell-cycle deceleration to a caspase-dependent cell-death response or by furthering parthanatos related cell death. Specifically in MEKi-resistant NRAS MUT or atypical BRAF MUT melanoma, treatment with a type I RAF inhibitor intensified pERK rebound elicited by MEKi withdrawal, thereby promoting a cell death–predominant MAPKi-addiction phenotype. Thus, MAPKi discontinuation upon disease progression should be coupled with specific strategies that augment MAPKi addiction.

CRAF dimerization with ARAF regulates KRAS driven tumors

Project description:KRAS, mutated in ~30% of all cancers, activates the RAF-MEK-ERK signaling cascade. It has previously been shown that CRAF is required for growth of KRAS mutant lung tumors but the requirement for CRAF kinase activity is unknown. Here, we show that subsets of KRAS mutant tumors are dependent on CRAF for growth. Kinase-dead but not dimer-defective CRAF rescued growth inhibition suggesting that dimerization but not kinase activity is required. Quantitative proteomics demonstrated enrichment of CRAF:ARAF dimers in KRAS mutant cells and depletion of both CRAF and ARAF rescued the CRAF loss phenotype. Mechanistically, CRAF depletion caused sustained ERK activation and induction of cell cycle arrest. Treatment with low dose MEK or ERK inhibitor rescued the CRAF loss phenotype. Our studies highlight the role of CRAF in regulating MAPK signal intensity to promote tumorigenesis downstream of mutant KRAS and suggest that disrupting dimerization or degrading CRAF may have therapeutic benefit.

Characterization of the genetic mouse model of non-small cells lung cancer p53R172HM-bM-^HM-^Fg/KrasG12D

Project description:Background: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for 81% of all cases of lung cancer and they are often fatal because 60% of the patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage. Besides the need for earlier diagnosis, there is a great need for additional effective therapies. In this work we investigated the feasibility of a lung cancer progression mouse model, mimicking features of human aggressive NSCLC cancer, as biological reservoir for potential therapeutic targets and biomarkers. Results:RNA-seq profiling was performed on total RNA extracted from lungs of 30 week-old p53R172HM-bM-^HM-^Fg/KrasG12D and wild type mice to detect fusion genes and gene/exon-level differential expression associated to the increase of tumor mass. Fusion events were not detected in p53R172HM-bM-^HM-^Fg/KrasG12D tumors. Differential expression at exon-level detected 33 genes with differential exon usage. The study provides a complete transcription overview of the p53R172HM-bM-^HM-^Fg/KrasG12D mouse NSCLC model Lung mRNA profiles of 30-week old wild type (WT) and p53R172HM-bM-^HM-^Fg/KrasG12D mice were generated by deep sequencing, in duplicate using Illumina HiSeq2000.

Generating a RAS expression signature in neuroblastoma

Project description:Mutations affecting the RAS-MAPK pathway frequently occur in relapse neuroblastoma tumors, which suggests that activation of this pathway is associated with a more aggressive phenotype. To explore this hypothesis we generated several model systems to define a neuroblastoma RAS-MAPK pathway signature. We could show that activation of this pathway in primary tumors indeed correlates with poor survival and is associated with known activating mutations in ALK and other RAS-MAPK pathway genes. From integrative analysis we could show that mutations in PHOX2B, CIC and DMD are also associated with an activated RAS-MAPK pathway. Mutation of PHOX2B and deletion of CIC in neuroblastoma cell lines induces activation of the RAS-MAPK pathway. This activation was independent of phosphorylated ERK in the CIC knock out systems. Furthermore, deletion of CIC causes a significant increase in tumor growth in vivo. These results show that the RAS-MAPK pathway is involved in tumor progression, and establish CIC as a powerful tumor suppressor that functions downstream of this pathway in neuroblastoma.
