Inhibition of Karyopherin β1-mediated nuclear import of lineage-defining TFs in small cell lung cancer

ABSTRACT: Extensive genomic studies support the classification of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) into subtypes based on expression of lineage-defining transcription factors including ASCL1 and NEUROD1, which together account for ~80% of this disease. ASCL1 and NEUROD1 activate SCLC oncogene expression and drive distinct transcriptional programs. ASCL1 is also required for tumorigenesis in SCLC mouse models, and both ASCL1 and NEUROD1 maintain the in vitro growth and oncogenic properties of ASCL1+ or NEUROD1+ SCLC cell lines. Strategies to inhibit ASCL1 and NEUROD1 may therefore represent an attractive, targeted SCLC therapy and provide a tool to investigate the underlying plasticity of the predominant SCLC subtypes. However, ASCL1 and NEUROD1 have long been considered “undruggable” vulnerabilities. Here, we use a proteomic approach to identify Karyopherin β1 (KPNB1) as a nuclear import receptor for ASCL1 and NEUROD1 in SCLC, and demonstrate that the inhibition of KPNB1 using a variety of genetic or pharmacological approaches leads to impaired ASCL1 and NEUROD1 nuclear accumulation and transcriptional activity. Pharmacological targeting of KPNB1 preferentially disrupts ASCL1/NEUROD1+ SCLC cell line growth in vitro and ASCL1+ tumor growth in an in vivo patient derived xenograft (PDX) model of SCLC.

KDM6A Epigenetically Regulates Subtype Plasticity in Small Cell Lung Cancer (scatac)

Project description:Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) exists broadly in four molecular subtypes: ASCL1, NEUROD1,POU2F3, and Inflammatory. Initially SCLC subtypes were thought to be mutually exclusive, butrecent evidence shows intra-tumoral subtype heterogeneity and plasticity between subtypes.Using a CRISPR-based autochthonous SCLC GEMM to study the consequences of KDM6A/UTXinactivation, we found that KDM6A inactivation induced plasticity from ASCL1 to NEUROD1resulting in SCLC tumors with open chromatin at the NEUROD1 promoter that express bothASCL1 and NEUROD1. Mechanistically, KDM6A binds and maintains ASCL1 target genes in anactive chromatin state with its loss increasing H3K27me3 near their promoters leading to a cell state that is primed for ASCL1 to NEUROD1 subtype switching. This work identifies KDM6A as \an epigenetic regulator that controls ASCL1 to NEUROD1 subtype plasticity and provides a novel autochthonous SCLC GEMM to model ASCL1 and NEUROD1 subtype heterogeneity and plasticity, which is found in 35-40% of human SCLCs.

Distinct Function for ASCL1 and NEUROD1 in Pulmonary Neuroendocrine Tumors (ChIP-seq)

Project description:Small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) and large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) are high-grade pulmonary neuroendocrine tumors. The neural basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors ASCL1 and NEUROD1 have been shown to play crucial roles in promoting the malignant behavior and survival of human SCLC cell lines. In this study, we find ASCL1 and NEUROD1 identify distinct neuroendocrine tumors, bind distinct genomic loci, and regulate mostly distinct genes. ASCL1 and NEUROD1 are often bound in super-enhancers that are associated with highly expressed genes in their respective SCLC cell lines suggesting different cell lineage of origin for these tumors. ASCL1 targets oncogenic genes such as MYCL1, RET, and NFIB, while NEUROD1 targets the oncogenic gene MYC. Although ASCL1 and NEUROD1 regulate different genes, many of these gene targets commonly contribute to neuroendocrine and cell migration function. ASCL1 in particular also regulates genes in the NOTCH pathway and genes important in cell-cycle dynamics. Finally, we demonstrate ASCL1 but not NEUROD1 is required for SCLC and LCNEC tumor formation in current in vivo genetic mouse models of pulmonary neuroendocrine tumors ChIP-seq analysis performed on three ASCL1high and two NEUROD1high human SCLC cell lines to identify ASCL1 and/or NEUROD1 binding sites in these two types of cells. Also, we performed ChIP-seq for Ascl1 binding sites in mouse neuroendocrine lung tumors obtained from Trp53;Rb1;Rbl2 triple knockout model mice treated with Adeno-CMVCRE intratracheally.

MicroRNA analysis of Lu134A cells following ASCL1 knockdown

Project description:Molecular subtypes of SCLC have been defined by the expression status of ASCL1, NEUROD1, YAP1, and POU2F3 transcription regulators. ASCL1 knockdown resulted in decreased and increased expression of miR-375 and miR-455-3p, respectively. Analyses of publicly available transcriptome datasets suggested that miR-375 induced by ASCL1 is involved in YAP1 suppression whereas miR-455-3p is higher in non-neuroendocrine SCLC cells lacking ASCL1 expression.
