Project description:Human fetal lung fibroblasts (IMR90) were induced to undergo senescence via ionizing radiation (IR). Ten days post-IR, RNA was collected from proliferating, senescent+DMSO, senescent+Palbociclib (2 µM), and senescent+Ruxolitinib (2 µM) conditions. Cells were treated on Days 4, 6, 8 and 10 after IR. This dataset examines how CDK4/6 or JAK inhibition affects gene expression in senescent cells.

Project description:CDK4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) are effective in metastatic breast cancer, but they have been only modestly effective in most other tumor types. Here we show that tumors expressing low CDK6 rely on CDK4 function, and are exquisitely sensitive to CDK4/6i. In contrast, tumor cells expressing both CDK4 and CDK6 have increased reliance on CDK6 to ensure cell cycle progression. We discovered that CDK4/6i and CDK4/6 degraders potently bind and inhibit CDK6 selectively in tumors in which CDK6 is highly thermo-unstable and strongly associated with the HSP90/CDC37 complex. In contrast, CDK4/6i and CDK4/6 degraders are ineffective in antagonizing tumor cells expressing thermostable CDK6, due to their weaker binding to CDK6 in these cells. Thus, we uncover a general mechanism of intrinsic resistance to CDK4/6i and CDK4/6i-derived degraders and the need for novel inhibitors targeting the CDK4/6i-resistant, thermostable form of CDK6 for application as cancer therapeutics.

Project description:Cdk4 and Cdk6 are two related kinases that bind D-type cyclins and regulate cell cycle progression. Due to their relevance in cancer, Cdk4/6 inhibitors are currently in advanced clinical trials in multiple tumor types. Cdk4/6 are inhibited by INK4 proteins that exert tumor suppressing functions. To test the significance of this inhibitory mechanism we have generated knock-in mice that express a Cdk6 mutant (Cdk6 R31C) insensitive to INK4-mediated inhibition. Cdk6R/R mice display altered development of the hematopoietic system without resulting in enhanced tumor susceptibility, either in the presence or absence of p53. The presence of the Cdk6 R31C allele results in defective potential of hematopoietic progenitors in adoptive transfer assays or after induced damage. These defects are rescued after complete insensitivity to INK4 inhibitors in Cdk4R/R; Cdk6R/R double mutant mice, and INK4-resistant mice display increased susceptibility to hematopoietic and endocrine tumors. In BCR-ABL-transformed hematopoietic cells, the presence of the Cdk6 R31C allele results in increased binding of p16INK4a to wild-type Cdk4, whereas the double mutant is fully insensitive to INK4 inhibitors resulting in accelerated disease onset. Our observations reveal that Cdk4 and Cdk6 cooperate in tumor development and suggest a role for Cdk6 in buffering INK4 protein levels thus contributing to the development of hematopoietic tumors. The presence of the Cdk4 R24C and Cdk6 R31C alleles results in relevant changes in the expression profiles of cancer cells including deregulation of apoptosis and other processes. p185BCR-ABL1 was used to transform wild-type or double knock-in Cdk4 R24C; Cdk6 R31C fetal livers. Cell lines were isolated as spontaneous immortal and transformed clones after transduction of fetal liver with a p185 BCR-ABL1-transgene. RNA was isolated from asynchronous cultures. Two-condition experiment, Cdk4R-Cdk6R cells versus wild-type cells. Biological replicates: 3 control replicates, 3 transfected replicates.

Project description:By selective and reversible inhibition of CDK4/CDK6, we have developed a strategy to both inhibit proliferation and enhance cytotoxic killing of cancer cells. Induction of prolonged early-G1 arrest (pG1) by CDK4/CDK6 inhibition halts gene expression in early-G1 and prevents expression of genes programmed for other cell cycle phases. S-phase synchronization upon removal of the early-G1 block (pG1-S) fails to completely restore scheduled gene expression. Consequently, coordinate loss of IRF4 and gain of Bim and Noxa expression sensitize myeloma tumor cells to bortezomib-induced apoptosis in pG1 and more profoundly in pG1-S in vitro. Induction of pG1 and pG1-S by CDK4/CDK6 inhibition augments tumor-specific bortezomib killing in myeloma xenografts. Inhibition of CDK4/CDK6 in combination therapy thus represents a novel mechanism-based cancer therapy. PD 0332991 (PD) is the only known specific and reversible CDK4/CDK6 inhibitor. Gene expression was measured in myeloma MM1.S cells treated with PD (0.25 uM) in triplicate for 12, 24 or 36 h, or in cells released from G1, induced by 24hPD, for 4 or 18 h.

Project description:This data set belongs to the publication 'Distinct CDK6 complexes determine tumor cell response to CDK4/6 inhibitors and degraders' from Xuewei Wu et al (PI: Poulikos I. Poulikakos) and contains the mass spectrometry files for affinity purification of endogenous CDK6 from tumor cell lines either sensitive or resistant to CDK4/6 inhibitors. The data showed a higher degree of interaction of CDK6 with components of the HSP90/CDC37 chaperoning complex in CDK4/6i-sensitive compared to CDK4/6i-resistant cells.

Project description:Cyclin-dependent kinase 6 (CDK6) represents a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of certain subtypes of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). CDK4/6 kinase inhibitors have been widely studied in many cancer types and their effects may be limited by primary and secondary resistance mechanisms. CDK4/6 degraders, which eliminate kinase dependent and kinase independent effects, have been suggested as alternative therapeutic option. We show that efficacy of the CDK6 specific protein degrader BSJ-03-123 varies among AML subtypes and depends on low expression of the INK4 proteins p16INK4A and p18INK4C. INK4 protein levels are significantly elevated in MLL-AF9+ compared to AML1-ETO+ cells, contributing to the different CDK6 degradation efficacy. We demonstrate that CDK6 complexes containing p16INK4A or p18INK4C are protected from BSJ-mediated degradation and that INK4 levels define the proliferative response to CDK6 degradation. These findings define INK4 proteins as predictive marker for CDK6 degradation – targeted therapies in AML.

Project description:The cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) CDK6 and CDK4 have redundant functions in regulating cell-cycle progression. We describe a novel role for CDK6 in hematopoietic and leukemic stem cells (HSCs and LSCs) that exceeds its function as cell-cycle regulator. Although hematopoiesis appears regular under steady state conditions Cdk6-/- HSCs do not efficiently repopulate upon competitive transplantation and Cdk6-deficient mice are significantly more susceptible to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) treatment. We find that activation of HSCs requires CDK6, which interferes with transcription of key regulators including Egr1. The central role of Egr1 is supported by transcriptional profiling of HSCs. The impaired repopulation capacity extends to BCR-ABLp210+ leukemic stem cells. Transplantation with BCR-ABLp210+-infected bone marrow (BM) from Cdk6-/- mice fails to induce disease although recipient mice do harbor LSCs. Egr1 knock-down in cdk6-/- BCR-ABLp210+ LSKs significantly enhances colony formation underlining the importance of the Cdk6-Egr1 axis. Our findings define CDK6 as an important regulator of stem cell activation and as essential component of a transcriptional complex that suppresses Egr1 in HSCs and LSCs. Four-condition experiment, Untreated or polyI:C-treated CDK6-/- cells versus untreated or polyI:C-treated wild-type cells. Biological replicates: 3 untreated replicates, 3 polyI:C-treated replicates.
