Effect of knockdown OFD1 on gene expression in pancreatic cancer cells

ABSTRACT: PARP inhibitors (PARPi) have demonstrated efficacy in treating human cancers with BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutations, which are present in only a small portion of breast, ovarian, prostate, and pancreatic cancers. In this study, we discovered that OFD1 is highly expressed in pancreatic cancer and is associated with a poor prognosis. Through screening an FDA-approved drug library, we found that OFD1 knockdown synergizes most effectively with PARPi for the treatment of pancreatic cancer cells. To explore the mechanism of OFD1 knockdown and PARP inhibitor-induced synthetic lethality, we knocked down OFD1 in three pancreatic cancer cell lines and performed RNA sequencing analysis of the whole genome to investigate the mechanisms underlying OFD1 inhibition and PARP inhibitor-induced synthetic lethality. In summary, our research will provide insights into the role of OFD1 in pancreatic cancer by revealing changes in the whole-genome expression profile and the underlying mechanisms.

Investigating Synthetic Lethality and PARP Inhibitor Resistance in Pancreatic Cancer Through Enantiomer Differential Activity

Project description:The RAD51-BRCA2 interaction is central to DNA repair through homologous recombination. Emerging evidence indicates RAD51 overexpression and its correlation with chemoresistance in various cancers, suggesting RAD51-BRCA2 inhibition as a compelling avenue for intervention. We previously showed that combining olaparib (a PARP inhibitor (PARPi)) with RS-35d (a BRCA2-RAD51 inhibitor) was efficient in killing pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells. However, RS-35d impaired cell viability even when administered alone, suggesting potential off-target effects. Here, through multiple, integrated orthogonal biological approaches in different 2D and 3D PDAC cultures, we characterised RS-35d enantiomers, in terms of mode of action and single contributions. By differentially inhibiting both RAD51-BRCA2 interaction and sensor kinases ATM, ATR and DNA-PK, RS-35d enantiomers exhibit a "within-pathway synthetic lethality" profile. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported proof-of-concept single small molecule capable of demonstrating this built-in synergism. In addition, RS-35d effect on BRCA2-mutated, olaparib-resistant PDAC cells suggests that this compound may be effective as an anticancer agent possibly capable of overcoming PARPi resistance. Our results demonstrate the potential of synthetic lethality, with its diversified applications, to propose new and concrete opportunities to effectively kill cancer cells while limiting side effects and potentially overcoming emerging drug resistance.

A genome-wide CRISPR screen identifies ZNF251 critical for resistance to PARP inhibitors

Project description:The poly (ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs) inhibitors are an exciting new class of agents that have shown efficacy in treating various cancers, especially these harboring BRCA1/2 mutations. The cancer associated BRCA1/2 mutations disrupt DNA double strand break (DSB) repair by homologous recombination (HR). PARP inhibitors (PARPi) have been applied to trigger synthetic lethality in BRCA1/2-mutated cancer cells by promoting accumulation of toxic DSBs. Unfortunately, PARP inhibitor (PARPi) resistance is common and develops through multiple mechanisms. Restoration of HR and/or stabilizing replication forks are two major mechanisms of PARPi resistance in BRCA1/2-mutated cells. To further understand the mechanisms of drug resistance to PARPi, we undertook an unbiased approach with a CRISPR-pooled library to screen new genes whose loss-of-function confers resistance to PARPi olaparib. We identified ZNF251, a transcription factor, and confirmed its loss-of-function led to the PARPi resistance in BRCA1-mutated breast and ovarian cancer lines. Elevated activities of both HR and non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) repair were detected in cancer cells harboring BRCA1 mutation and ZNF251 deletion (BRCA1mut+ZNF251del) and were associated with enhanced expression of RAD51 and Ku70/Ku80, respectively. Furthermore, we showed that DNA-PKcs inhibitor restored sensitivity of BRCA1mut+ZNF251del cells to PARPi. Taken together, our study identified a novel gene whose loss of function conferred resistance to PARPi, providing new insight into signaling pathways that contribute to acquired resistance in BRCA1-mutated breast and ovarian cancers.

Activation of PARP-1 by snoRNAs Controls Ribosome Biogenesis and Cell Growth via the RNA Helicase DDX21 (RNA-Seq)

Project description:PARP inhibitors (PARPi) prevent cancer cell growth by inducing synthetic lethality with DNA repair defects (e.g., in BRCA1/2 mutant cells). We have identified an alternate pathway for PARPi-mediated growth control in BRCA1/2-intact breast cancer cells involving rDNA transcription and ribosome biogenesis. PARP-1 binds to snoRNAs, which stimulate PARP-1 catalytic activity in the nucleolus independent of DNA damage. Activated PARP-1 ADP-ribosylates DDX21, an RNA helicase that localizes to nucleoli and promotes rDNA transcription when ADP-ribosylated. Treatment with PARPi or mutation of the ADP-ribosylation sites reduce DDX21 nucleolar localization, rDNA transcription, ribosome biogenesis, protein translation, and cell growth. The salient features of this pathway are evident in xenografts in mice and human breast cancer patient samples. Elevated levels of PARP-1 and nucleolar DDX21 are associated with cancer-related outcomes. Our studies provide a mechanistic rationale for efficacy of PARPi in cancer cells lacking defects in DNA repair whose growth is inhibited by PARPi.

Activation of PARP-1 by snoRNAs Controls Ribosome Biogenesis and Cell Growth via the RNA Helicase DDX21

Project description:PARP inhibitors (PARPi) are thought to control cancer cell growth by inducing synthetic lethality with DNA repair defects (e.g., in BRCA1/2 mutant cells). We have identified an alternate pathway for PARPi-mediated growth control in BRCA1/2-intact breast cancer cells involving rDNA transcription and ribosome biogenesis. PARP-1 binds to snoRNAs, which stimulate PARP-1 catalytic activity in the nucleolus independent of DNA damage. Activated PARP-1 ADPribosylates DDX21, an RNA helicase that localizes to the rDNA locus and promotes rDNA transcription when ADP-ribosylated. Treatment with PARPi or mutation of the ADP-ribosylation sites on DDX21 causes a reduction in rDNA transcription, as well as a reduction in ribosome biogenesis, protein translation, and cell growth. Our studies provide mechanistic insights into PARP-1-dependent ADP-ribosylation of DDX21 and its role in ribosome biogenesis. This pathway can be targeted for disruption in cancer cells that lack defects in DNA repair, but exhibit growth inhibition in response to PARPi.

Amplification of mutant BRCA2 gene confers resistance to PARP inhibitor

Project description:Breast cancer gene 2 (BRCA2) deleterious mutations confer sensitivity to poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibition due to its critical role in DNA repair. PARP inhibitor Olaparib is now approved and several other PARP inhibitors are now in different stages of clinical trials. Development of resistance to PARP inhibitors limits their clinical utility. The mechanism of resistance remains not fully understood. Here we show that amplification of mutant BRCA2 confers PARP inhibitor resistance. The amplification of mutant BRCA2 gene copies correlates with an increase in mutant BRCA2 expression and an increase in the levels of its interacting proteins PALB2 and RAD51. In addition, homologous recombination mediated DNA repair is rescued in these cells as evidenced by the formation of RAD51 focus formation. The overexpressed mutant BRCA2 is essential for the observed PARP inhibitor resistance because knockdown of its expression is sufficient to re-sensitize these cells to PARP inhibition. Collectively, our results indicate a new mechanism of resistance to PARP inhibitor in BRCA2 mutant cancer cells

Proteomic profile of BxPC3 cells after RAD51 inhibition by treatment with BRC4

Project description:RAD51 protein is an evolutionarily conserved recombinase that plays a central role in homologous recombination (HR) and DNA double strand break (DSB) repair. RAD51 inactivation by small molecules has been proposed as a strategy to impair the BRCA2/RAD51 binding and, ultimately, the HR pathway, with the aim to make cancer cells more sensitive to PARP inhibitors (PARPi). This strategy, which mimics a synthetic lethality (SL) approach, has been successfully assayed in vitro by using myr-BRC4, a peptide derived from the fourth BRC repeat of BRCA2, being the strongest reported natural RAD51 binder. The present study applies a method to obtain a proteomic fingerprint for RAD51 inhibition by the myr-BRC4 peptide (designed for a more efficient cell entry) using a mass spectroscopy (MS) proteomic approach. We performed a comparative proteomic profiling of the myr-BRC4 treated vs. untreated BxPC-3 pancreatic cancer cells and evaluated the differential expression of proteins. Among the identified proteomic hits, we focused our attention on proteins shared by both the RAD51 and the BRCA2 interactomes, and on those whose reduction showed high statistical significance. Three downregulated proteins were identified (FANCI, FANCD2, and RPA3) and protein downregulation was confirmed through immunoblotting analysis, validating the MS approach. Our results suggest that, being a direct consequence of RAD51 inhibition, the detection of FANCD2, FANCI, and RPA3 downregulation could be used as an indicator for monitoring HR impairment.

Role of ALDH1A1 in PARPi resistance in ovarian cancer

Project description:Poly (ADP-ribose) Polymerase (PARP) inhibitors (PARPi) are approved to treat recurrent ovarian cancer with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations, and as maintenance therapy for recurrent platinum sensitive ovarian cancer (BRCA wild-type or mutated) after treatment with platinum. However, the acquired resistance against PARPi remains a clinical hurdle. Our previous study has demonstrated that PARPi can enhance the Aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity in ovarian cancer cells, mainly through inducing expression of ALDH1A1, an isoform of the ALDH family. In addition, an ALDH1A1 selective inhibitor can synergize with olaparib in killing EOC cells carrying BRCA2 mutation in both in vitro cell culture and the in vivo xenograft animal model. In order to elucidating the mechanism by which ALDH1A1 renders PARPi resistance to ovarian cancer, we performed RNA-seq analysis to identify genes whose expression can be regulated by ALDH1A1.

Characterization of TNG348: a selective, allosteric USP1 inhibitor that synergizes with PARP inhibitors in tumors with DNA damage repair alterations

Project description:Inhibition of the deubiquitinating enzyme USP1 can induce synthetic lethality in tumors characterized by homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) and represents a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of BRCA1/2 mutant cancers, potentially including patients whose tumors have primary or acquired resistance to PARP inhibitors (PARPi). Here, we present a comprehensive characterization of TNG348, an allosteric, selective, and reversible inhibitor of USP1 (USP1i). TNG348 induces dose-dependent accumulation of ubiquitinated protein substrates both in vitro and in vivo. CRISPR screens show that TNG348 exerts its anti-tumor effect by disrupting the translesion synthesis pathway of DNA damage tolerance through RAD18-dependent ub-PCNA induction. Though TNG348 and PARPi share the ability to selectively kill HRD tumor cells, CRISPR screens reveal that TNG348 and PARPi do so through discrete mechanisms. Particularly, knocking out PARP1 causes resistance to PARPi but sensitizes cells to TNG348 treatment. Consistent with these findings, combination of TNG348 with PARPi leads to synergistic anti-tumor effects in HRD tumors, resulting in tumor growth inhibition and regression in multiple mouse xenograft tumor models. Importantly, our data in human cancer models further show that the addition of TNG348 to PARPi treatment can overcome acquired PARPi resistance in vivo. While the clinical development of TNG348 has been discontinued due to unexpected liver toxicity in patients (NCT06065059), the present data provides preclinical and mechanistic support for the continued exploration of USP1 as a drug target for the treatment of patients with BRCA1/2 mutant or HRD cancers.

Shieldin complex promotes DNA end joining and counters homologous recombination in BRCA1-null cells

Project description:BRCA1 deficiencies cause breast, ovarian and other cancers, and render tumours hypersensitive to PARP-inhibitors. To understand resistance mechanisms, we conducted whole-genome CRISPR-Cas9 synthetic-viability/resistance screens in BRCA1-deficient breast cancer cells treated with PARP-inhibitors. Thus, we identified two previously uncharacterized proteins, C20orf196 and FAM35A, whose inactivation confers strong PARP-inhibitor resistance. Mechanistically, we show that C20orf196 and FAM35A form a complex, termed “Shieldin” (SHLD1/2), with FAM35A interacting with single-stranded DNA via its C-terminal OB-fold region. We establish that Shieldin promotes DNA double-strand break (DSB) end-joining, acting as the downstream effector of 53BP1/RIF1/MAD2L2 to restrict DSB resection and counteract homologous recombination in BRCA1-deficient cells by antagonising BRCA2/RAD51 loading. Notably, Shieldin inactivation further sensitises BRCA1-deficient cells to cisplatin, suggesting how defining the SHLD1/2 status of BRCA1-deficient tumours might aid patient stratification and yield new treatment opportunities. Highlighting this potential, we document reduced SHLD1/2 expression in human breast cancers displaying intrinsic or acquired PARP-inhibitor resistance.
