Impaired proteolysis of non-canonical RAS proteins drives clonal hematopoietic transformation [scRNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Recently, screens for mediators of resistance to FLT3 and ABL kinase inhibitors in leukemia resulted in the discovery of LZTR1 as an adaptor of a Cullin-3 RING E3 ubiquitin ligase complex responsible for degradation of RAS GTPases. In parallel, dysregulated LZTR1 expression via aberrant splicing and mutations have been identified in clonal hematopoietic conditions. Here we identify that loss of LZTR1, or leukemia-associated mutants in the LZTR1 substrate and RAS GTPase RIT1 which escape degradation, drive hematopoietic stem cell expansion (HSC) and leukemia in vivo. LZTR1 null cells rely on multiple RAS GTPases for transformation. Consequently, RAS targeting bioPROTACs or reduction of GTP-loaded RAS overcomes LZTR1 loss-mediated resistance to FLT3 inhibitors. These data thereby reveal proteolysis of non-canonical RAS proteins as novel regulators of HSC function, define the function and spectrum of RIT1 and LZTR1 mutations in leukemia, and identify means to overcome drug resistance due to LZTR1 downregulation.

Minor intron retention drives clonal hematopoietic disorders and diverse cancer predisposition.

Project description:Most metazoans contain two distinct pre-mRNA splicing machineries: the major spliceosome, which removes >99% of introns, and the minor spliceosome, which recognizes <1% of introns. Despite their rarity, minor introns are exquisitely conserved amongst species, suggesting important regulatory functions. However, physiologic roles for the minor spliceosome and the relevance of recurrent, leukemia-associated mutations affecting minor spliceosome components are not well understood. Here, we identify that mutational loss of the minor spliceosomal factor ZRSR2 enhances hematopoietic stem cell self-renewal via impaired minor intron splicing that converges on LZTR1, a regulator of Ras-related GTPases. LZTR1 minor intron retention is additionally observed in Noonan syndrome and diverse cancers. These data uncover minor intron recognition as a regulator of hematopoiesis and mechanistic links between ZRSR2 mutations, LZTR1, and leukemia.

Minor intron retention drives clonal hematopoietic disorders and diverse cancer predisposition

Project description:Most eukaryotes harbor two distinct pre-mRNA splicing machineries: the major spliceosome, which removes >99% of introns, and the minor spliceosome, which removes rare, evolutionarily conserved introns. Although hypothesized to serve important regulatory functions, physiologic roles for the minor spliceosome are not well understood. For example, the minor spliceosome component ZRSR2 is subject to recurrent, leukemia-associated mutations, yet functional connections between minor introns, hematopoiesis, and cancers are unclear. Here, we identify that impaired minor intron excision via ZRSR2 loss enhances hematopoietic stem cell self-renewal. CRISPR screens mimicking nonsense-mediated decay of minor intron-containing mRNAs converged on LZTR1, a regulator of Ras-related GTPases. LZTR1 minor intron retention was also discovered in the RASopathy Noonan syndrome, due to intronic mutations disrupting splicing, and diverse solid tumors. These data uncover minor intron recognition as a regulator of hematopoiesis, noncoding mutations within minor introns as cancer drivers, and links between ZRSR2 mutations, LZTR1 regulation, and leukemias.

Alkynyl nicotinamides with antileukemic activity to treat poor prognosis AM

Project description:FLT3 activating mutations cause myeloproliferative neoplasms by deregulating hematopoietic progenitor cell growth, and acute myeloid leukemia is on the rise. Investigational drugs targeting mutant FLT3, including Quizartinib and Crenolanib, develop inherent and acquired resistance to FLT3 targeted therapy. FLT3 inhibitor resistance in AML is dependent on co-occurring mutations, parallel survival pathways, and/or subsequent FLT3-ITD mutations. Despite the high prevalence of FLT3 mutations and their clinical significance in AML, there are few targeted therapeutic options. We identified two novel naphthyridine-based FLT3 inhibitors (HSN608 and HSN748) that specifically target FLT3-ITD at sub-nanomolar concentrations and are effective against drug-resistant secondary mutations. In the current study, we evaluated these compounds antileukemic activity against FLT3-ITD and gatekeeper mutations in drug-resistant AML, relapsed/refractory AMLs with FLT3 mutations, and in vivo mouse models with combinations of epigenetic mutations TET2 with FLT3-ITD, and AML patients PDX. In these model systems, we demonstrate that HSN748 outperforms the FDA-approved FLT3 inhibitor Gilteritinib in terms of inhibitory activity against FLT3-ITD.

Loss-of-function of ubiquitin ligase adaptor LZTR1 triggers human disease by dysregulating RAS ubiquitination

Project description:Mutations in LZTR1, a substrate adaptor for cullin 3 (CUL3) ubiquitin ligase complexes1, have been recently associated with Noonan syndrome2,3 and familial Schwannomatosis4-6. Concordantly, we found that Lztr1+/- mice showed craniofacial abnormalities, cardio defects, and premature ageing; whereas loss of LZTR1 in Schwann cells drives their dedifferentiation into proliferating, pro-myelinating cells. We screened for LZTR1 substrates by trapping LZTR1 complexes from intact mammalian cells. In parallel, we analysed changes in the ubiquitin landscape induced by LZTR1 loss of function. RAS proteins emerged as substrates of the LZTR1/CUL3 complex, which inhibits the RAS pathway by ubiquitinating RAS at K170 and triggering its dissociation from the membrane. Disease-associated LZTR1 mutations affect either the LZTR1/CUL3 complex formation, or the interaction with RAS proteins. These results position LZTR1 as a key node in the RAS pathway, loss-of-function of which leads to a human disease.

Concordantly, we found that Lztr1+/- mice showed craniofacial abnormalities, cardio defects, and premature ageing; whereas loss of LZTR1 in Schwann cells drives their dedifferentiation into proliferating, pro-myelinating cells. In the present dataset we screened for changes in the ubiquitin landscape induced by LZTR1 loss of function by mass spectrometry-based proteomics and identified RAS proteins as substrates of the LZTR1/CUL3 complex. In follow-up experiments we showed that LZTR1/CUL3 inhibits the RAS pathway by ubiquitinating RAS at K170 and triggering its dissociation from the membrane. Disease-associated LZTR1 mutations affect either the LZTR1/CUL3 complex formation, or the interaction with RAS proteins. Together, our results position LZTR1 as a key node in the RAS pathway, loss-of-function of which leads to human disease.

Differential expression analysis of primary AML cells treated with AC220 vs DMSO in endothelial cell co-culture.

Project description:Although chemotherapy can successfully induce remission in FLT3/ITD positive acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients, many, especially those with a high ratio of the FLT3/ITD versus wild type allele (FLT3-AR), exhibit a high relapse rate, requiring hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation to increase the chance of long-term remission. As the bone marrow tumor microenvironment (TME) has been implicated in drug resistance, we reasoned that AML-TME interactions might be critical for leukemic precursor survival and drug resistance, and that targeting AML-TME interactions might be crucial to improving survival in FLT3/ITD AML patients. In this study, we demonstrate that endothelial cells (ECs), a component of the TME, and the Notch pathway plays a critical role in the protection of FLT3/ITD positive progenitors against AC220 in AML patient samples with high FLT3-AR. We have previously shown that high FLT3-AR disease is distinguished by the presence of the mutation in the least mature CD34+CD33- precursors, where leukemic stem cells (LSCs) reside. Here, we demonstrate that inhibiting Notch signaling overcomes the TME-mediated drug resistance of the LSC-enriched CD34+CD33- precursors, raising the possibility that Notch may serve as a therapeutic target for eradicating LSCs that are thought to be responsible for relapse in this high-risk AML subset.

Transcriptomic profiling identifies unique and shared functions of oncogenic KRAS and RIT1

Project description:Aberrant activation of RAS oncogenes is a prevalent event in lung adenocarcinoma, with somatic mutation of KRAS occurring in ~30% of tumors. Recently, we identified somatic mutation of the RAS-family GTPase RIT1 in lung adenocarcinoma, but relatively little is known about the biological pathways regulated by RIT1 and how these relate to the oncogenic KRAS network. Here we present (quantitative proteomic and) transcriptomic profiles from KRAS-mutant and RIT1-mutant isogenic lung epithelial cells and globally characterize the signaling networks regulated by each oncogene.

Tyr62 phosphorylation of the phosphatase SHP2 enables acquired resistance to SHP2 allosteric inhibitors in FLT3-ITD-driven AML

Project description:The protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP2 is crucial for oncogenic transformation of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells expressing mutated receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), as it is required for full RAS-ERK activation to promote cell proliferation and survival programs. SHP2 allosteric inhibitors act by stabilizing SHP2 in its auto-inhibited conformation and they are currently being tested in clinical trials for tumors with over-activation of the RAS/ERK pathway, alone and in various drug combinations. Using in vitro models, we established acquired resistant cell lines to the allosteric SHP2 inhibitor SHP099 from two FLT3-ITD-positive AML cell lines. We performed both label-free and isobaric labeling quantitative mass spectrometry-based phosphoproteomics to reveal that AML cells can restore phosphorylated ERK (pERK) in presence of SHP099, thus developing adaptive resistance. Mechanistically, SHP2 inhibition induces the tyrosine phosphorylation and feedback-activation of the FLT3 receptor, which in turn phosphorylates SHP2 on Tyrosine 62. This phosphorylation stabilizes SHP2 in its open conformation, preventing SHP099 binding, thus resulting in resistance. Combinatorial inhibition of SHP2 and MEK or SHP2 and FLT3 prevents pERK rebound and resistant cell growth. We observed the same mechanism in a FLT3-mutated B-ALL cell line and in the inv(16)/KITD816Y AML mouse model. Finally, we show that allosteric SHP2 inhibition does not impair the clonogenic ability of normal bone marrow progenitors, supporting its future use for clinical applications.
