Synthetic Lethal Interaction Between Loss of Function of OGDH and Bcl-xL in Glioblastoma

ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma (GBM) remains an incurable disease, requiring more effective therapies. Through CRISPR and RNAi library screening interrogation we identified several TCA-cycle enzymes as essential for GBM growth. By combining a transcriptome and metabolite screening analyses we discovered that loss of function of OGDH by the clinically validated drug compound, CPI-613, is synthetically lethal with Bcl-xL inhibition (genetically and through the clinically validated BH3-mimetic, ABT263) in patient-derived xenograft as well neurosphere GBM cultures. CPI-613 mediated energy deprivation drives an integrated stress response with an up-regulation of the BH3-only domain protein, Noxa in an ATF4 dependent manner as demonstrated by genetic loss of function experiments. Consistently, silencing of Noxa rescued from cell death induced by CPI-613 in model systems of GBM. In patient-derived xenograft models of GBM in mice, the combination treatment of ABT263 and CPI613 suppressed tumor growth more potently than each compound on its own. Therefore, combined inhibition of Bcl-xL along with interference of the TCA-cycle might be a novel treatment strategy for GBM.

BCL-XL inhibition induces an FGFR4 mediated rescue response in colorectal cancer

Project description:The heterogeneous therapy response observed in colorectal cancer is in part due to cancer stem cells (CSCs) that resist chemotherapeutic insults. The anti-apoptotic protein BCL-XL plays a critical role in protecting CSCs from cell death, where its inhibition with high doses of BH3-mimetics can induce apoptosis. To identify pathways that can regulate sensitivity to BCL-XL inhibition, we screened a compound library for synergy with low dose BCL-XL inhibitor A-1155463 and reveal that FGFR4 inhibition effectively sensitizes to A-1155463 both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, we identify a rescue response that is activated upon BCL-XL inhibition and leads to rapid FGF2 secretion and subsequent FGFR4-mediated post-translational stabilization of MCL-1. FGFR4 inhibition prevents MCL-1 upregulation and thereby sensitizes CSCs to BCL-XL inhibition. Altogether, our findings suggest a cell transferable induction of a FGF2/FGFR4 rescue response in CRC that is induced upon BCL-XL inhibition and leads to MCL-1 upregulation.

Venetoclax treatment imparts distinct cell death sensitivity and adaptivity patterns in T cells

Project description:BH3 mimetics are increasingly used as anti-cancer therapeutics either alone or in conjunction with other chemotherapies. However, mounting evidence has also demonstrated that BH3 mimetics induce varied amounts of cell death in healthy immune populations. In order to maximize their clinical potential, it is essential to understand how BH3 mimetics affect discrete immune populations and to determine how BH3 mimetic pressure causes immune system adaptation. Here we focus on the BCL-2 specific inhibitor venetoclax (ABT-199) and its effects following short-term and long-term BCL-2 blockade on T cell subsets. Seven day "short-term” ex vivo and in vivo BCL-2 inhibition led to divergent cell death sensitivity patterns in CD8+ T cells, CD4+ T cells, and Tregs resulting in shifting of global T cell populations towards a more memory T cell state with increased expression of BCL-2, BCL-XL, and MCL-1. However, twenty-eight day “long-term” BCL-2 blockade during T cell engraftment following bone marrow transplantation did not lead to changes in the global T cell landscape. Despite the lack of changes in T cell proportions, animals treated with venetoclax developed CD8+ and CD4+ T cells with high levels of BCL-2 and were more resistant to apoptotic stimuli. Further, we demonstrate through RNA profiling that T cells adapt while under BCL-2 blockade post-transplant and develop a more activated genotype. Taken together, these data emphasize the importance of evaluating how BH3 mimetics affect the immune system in different treatment modalities and disease contexts and suggest that venetoclax should be further explored as an immunomodulatory compound.

Cellular senescence in malignant cells promotes tumorigenesis in mouse and patient glioblastoma [bulk RNA-seq]

Project description:GBM mouse model: The goal of this study is to compare the transcriptomic landscape at the endpoint of GBMs upon senescent cells deletion. We introduced the p16-3MR transgene in the GBM mouse model to selectively delete senescent cells expressing high level of p16Ink4a (p16Ink4a Hi) upon ganciclovir (GCV) injection. We compared p16-3MR+GCV GBMs to two control conditions, either WT+GCV or p16-3MR+GCV. We showed a slight decreased of p16Ink4a transcripts in p16-3MR+GCV compared to WT+GCV GBMs and GSEA demonstrated significant down-regulation of senescence pathways in p16-3MR+GCV GBMs compared to control GBMs. GBM-derived organoids: We used a mouse GBM-derived organoids model to further explore the function of Nrf2, that we identified as one potential trigger of the pro-tumoral action of p16Ink4a Hi malignant cells. We compared GBM-derived organoids treated with the senolytic ABT263 (Navitoclax; inhibitor of the anti-apoptotic proteins Blcl2 and BCL-xL) or vehicle (vhc) after 14 days in culture. We validated ABT263 efficacy via the significant downregulation of the expression of p16Ink4a, p15Ink4b and p21Cip1 senescent markers. We further identified upon senolytic treatment, downregulated genes encoding for SASP. Importantly, GSEA revealed a significant downregulation of Nrf2 pathway upon senolytic treatment.

Activation of the Mitochondrial ClpP protease is Synthetically Lethal with HDAC1/2 Inhibition in Glioblastoma Model Systems

Project description:By integration of transcriptome and metabolite analyses, we showed that pharmacological activation of the mitochondrial ClpP protease through utilization of enhanced imipridone compounds (ONC206 and ONC212) in combination with global (Panobinostat) and selective (romidepsin) HDAC – inhibitors caused synergistic reduction of viability in established and patient-derived xenograft (PDX) cultures of human GBM. This effect occurred independent of TP53 status and was partially mediated by activation of a cell death with apoptotic features accompanied by activation of initiator and effector caspases as well as cleavage of PARP. Consistently, the combination treatment altered the expression of anti-apoptotic and pro-apoptotic Bcl-2 family members, resulting in down-regulation of Bcl-xL and Mcl-1. Knockdown experiments targeting Noxa, BIM, Bcl-xL and Mcl-1 confirmed a functional implication of these proteins in the reduction of cellular viability mediated by the combination treatment. Importantly, knockdown of the ClpP protease significantly rescued the reduction of cellular viability by ClpP activators and the combination treatment, respectively, suggesting critical involvement of this protein. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying cellularization and identified distinct classes of up-regulated and down-regulated genes in cells treated with ONC206 and Romidepsin.

Mitochondrial E3 ubiquitin ligase MARCHF5 controls BAK function independently of BH3-only proteins

Project description:Intrinsic apoptosis is principally regulated by the BCL-2 family of proteins, but some non-BCL-2 proteins also serve as important regulators. To identify novel apoptosis regulators, we performed a genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 library screen, and it identified the mitochondrial E3 ubiquitin ligase MARCHF5/MITOL/RNF153 as an important regulator of BAK apoptotic function. Deleting MARCHF5 in multiple BAX-deficient cell lines conferred profound resistance to BH3-mimetic drugs. The loss of MARCHF5 or its E3 ubiquitin ligase activity surprisingly drove BAK to adopt an active conformation, with resistance to BH3-mimetics afforded by the formation of inhibitory complexes with pro-survival proteins MCL-1 and BCL-XL. Importantly, these changes to BAK conformation and pro-survival association occurred independently of BH3-only proteins. This study identifies a mechanism by which MARCHF5 regulates apoptotic cell death and provides new insight into how cancer cells respond to BH3-mimetic drugs. These data also highlight the emerging role of ubiquitin signalling in apoptosis that may be exploited therapeutically.

Co-inhibition of BET proteins and PI3Kα triggers mitochondrial apoptosis in rhabdomyosarcoma cells

Project description:Remodeling transcription by targeting bromodomain and extraterminal (BET) proteins has emerged as promising anticancer strategy. Here, we identify a novel synergistic interaction of the BET inhibitor JQ1 with the PI3Kα-specific inhibitor BYL719 to trigger mitochondrial apoptosis and to suppress tumor growth in models of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS). RNA-Seq revealed that JQ1/BYL719 co-treatment shifts the overall balance of BCL-2 family gene expression towards apoptosis and upregulates expression of BMF, BCL2L11 (BIM) and PMAIP1 (NOXA) while downregulating BCL2L1 (BCL-xL).

Transcription profiling of human SCLC cell line set 2

Project description:RNA expression analysis was performed to compare patterns to sensitivity to BCL2 inhibitors (ABT-263). Overexpression of the prosurvival Bcl-2 family members (Bcl-2, Bcl-xL and Mcl-1) is commonly associated with tumor maintenance, progression and chemoresistance. We previously reported the discovery of ABT-737, a potent, small molecule Bcl-2 family protein inhibitor. A major limitation of ABT-737 is that it is not orally bioavailable. This may limit its use for chronic single agent treatment and the flexibility to dose in combination with parenteral chemotherapy. Here we report the discovery and biological properties of ABT-263, a potent, orally bioavailable Bad-like BH3 mimetic (KiÃ¢??s of < 1 nM for Bcl-2, Bcl-xL and Bcl-w). The oral bioavailability of ABT-263 in preclinical animal models is 20% - 50%, depending on formulation. ABT-263 disrupts Bcl-2/Bcl-xL interactions with pro-death proteins (e.g., Bim) in cells leading to the initiation of apoptosis within 2 hr post-treatment. In human tumor cells, ABT-263 rapidly induces Bax translocation, cytochrome c release and subsequent programmed cell death. Oral administration of ABT-263 alone induces complete tumor regressions in xenograft models of small cell lung cancer and acute lymphoblastic leukemia. In xenograft models of aggressive B-cell lymphoma and multiple myeloma where ABT-263 exhibits modest or no single agent activity, it significantly enhances the efficacy of clinically relevant therapeutic regimens. These data provide the rationale for clinical trials evaluating ABT-263 in SCLC and B-cell malignancies. The oral efficacy of ABT-263 should provide dosing flexibility to maximize clinical utility as both a single agent and in combination with standard chemotherapeutic regimens. Experiment Overall Design: Naive cell lines were isolated in duplicate or triplicate (only a single for H69AR) to determine RNA expression pattern.

Engineering ABT-737 Resistance in MYC-driven Lymphomas Identifies DHX9 as a Drug Response Modifier

Project description:Many traditional cytotoxic agents used in the treatment of cancer function by eliciting an apoptotic response in tumor cells. However, evasion of apoptosis by BCL-2 family members is often deregulated prior to therapeutic intervention leading to treatment failure. To address this, ABT-737 was rationally designed to target BCL-2-like family members and has shown promising results against tumor cells dependent on BCL-2 for their survival. One shortcoming is that MCL-1, a member of the BCL-2 family is poorly inhibited by ABT-737 and is a major cause of resistance. To gain insight into biological pathways that could circumvent this resistance, we designed an shRNA screen to identify novel sensitizers to ABT-737 by engineering MYC driven lymphomas that were resistant to ABT-737 due to endogenous MCL-1 expression. Utilizing this model, we performed a shRNA drop-out screen and identified Dhx9 as a target whose suppression sensitizes cells to ABT-737. DHX9 loss lead to replicative stress signaling, which in turn potently induced the BH3-only proteins, NOXA and PUMA, in a p53-dependent manner to curtail MCL-1 activity. Induction of NOXA is essential for ABT-737 sensitization. Our results ascribe a novel role for DHX9 in the replicative stress pathway and link DHX9 activity to p53 function in vivo.

STING-dependent paracriny shapes apoptotic priming of breast tumors in response to anti-mitotic treatment

Project description:A fascinating but uncharacterized action of antimitotic chemotherapy is to collectively prime cancer cells to apoptotic mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization (MOMP), while impacting only on cycling cell subsets. Here, we show that a proapoptotic secretory phenotype is induced by activation of cGAS/STING in cancer cells that are hit by antimitotic treatment, accumulate micronuclei and maintain mitochondrial integrity despite intrinsic apoptotic pressure. Organotypic cultures of primary human breast tumors and patient-derived xenografts sensitive to paclitaxel exhibit gene expression signatures typical of type I IFN and TNFalpha exposure. These cytokines induced by cGAS/STING activation trigger NOXA expression in neighboring cells and render them acutely sensitive to BCL-xL inhibition. cGAS/STING-dependent apoptotic effects are required for paclitaxel response in vivo, and they are amplified by sequential, but not synchronous, administration of BH3 mimetics. Thus anti-mitotic agents propagate apoptotic priming across heterogeneously sensitive cancer cells through cytosolic DNA sensing pathway-dependent extracellular signals, exploitable by delayed MOMP targeting.

Expression Profiles of Responders versus Non-Responders with AML or MDS to the Novel Mitochondrial Inhibitor CPI-613

Project description:To determine if there are differences in the gene expression profile of peripheral blood mononuclear cells in patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) or Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) who responded to CPI-613 when compared to those patients who did not respond we generated gene expression profiles from four responding patients and compared them to four non-responders. None of the gene expression profiles have been previously published. Here we describe the origins and provide associated clinical annotations with the hope that other investigators will be able to utilize this data in their own research. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated from 4 patients (3 MDS, 1 AML) who responded to treatment with CPI-613 and four patients (all with AML) who did not respond. Total RNA was isolated and gene expression levels were profiled on the Affymetrix Gene Atlas U219 array strips.
