Project description:The mechanisms by which Myc transcriptionally induces tumour progression is unclear. In an autochthonous mouse model of lung adenocarcinoma driven by oncogenic Kras and deregulated Myc cooperation, we initiated acute activation of Myc exclusively in the tumour epithelial cells to identify the sequence of events and crosstalk in a tumour and its attendent microenvironement in the first week of tumour progression, with a focus on the first 24 hours.

Project description:We sought to compare the transcriptomic output of Kras activation with that of modestly overexpressed cMYC, to better understand the mechanism of oncogenic cooperation. We isolated fibrobalsts from mouse embryos carrying CRE-inducible alleles for KRasG12D (LSL-KRasG12D) and MYC (Rosa26-LSL-MYC), alongside double positive and wild-type control MEFs. All MEFs were infected at early passage with Adeno-CMV-CRE, to induced expression of conditional alleles, where present, and RNA was isolated 24hrs post infection.

Project description:Microarray expression data generated to compare the biological impact of KrasG12D allelic duplication in p53null mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). The RAS/MAPK-signalling pathway is frequently deregulated in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), often through activating mutations in KRAS. Mouse models demonstrated that activation of a single endogenous mutant Kras allele is sufficient to promote lung tumour formation, but acquisition of other genetic alterations is required for malignant progression. Using a well-established lung cancer mouse model we recently demonstrated that advanced KrasG12D-driven spontaneous tumours frequently exhibit enhanced MAPK signalling and KrasG12D allelic enrichment (KrasG12D/Kraswild-type>1), implying that mutant Kras copy gains are positively selected during lung cancer progression. To compare the oncogenic impact of a single mutant allele versus additional mutant Kras copy gain, we carried out a comprehensive analysis of mutant Kras homozygous and heterozygous MEFs and lung cancer cells and show that these genotypes are phenotypically distinct.

Project description:Almost all human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs) are driven by oncogenic Kras and the progression of the disease is characterized by the serial appearance of certain genetic lesions. Mouse models have convincingly shown that Kras mutation induces classical PanIN lesions that can progress to PDAC in the appropriate tumor suppressor background. However, the cooperative mechanism between mutant Kras-dependent signaling surrogates and other oncogenic pathways remains to be fully elucidated in order to devise better therapeutic strategy. Mounting evidence PTEN/PI3K perturbation on PDAC tumorigenesis, we observed frequent PTEN inactivation at both genomic and histopathological levels in primary human PDAC samples. The importance of PTEN/PI3K pathway during the development of PDAC was further supported by genetic studies demonstrating that Pten deficiency in cooperation with Kras activation accelerated the formation of invasive PDAC. Mechanistically, combined Kras mutation and Pten inactivation leads to NFkB activation and subsequent induction of cytokine pathways, accompanied with strong stromal activation and immune cell infiltration. Therefore, PTEN/PI3K pathway dictates the activity of NFkB network and serves as a major surrogate during Kras-mediated pancreatic tumorigenesis. Primary pancreatic ductal epithelial cell cultures were established from 6 week old Pdx1-Cre;LSL-KrasG12D L/+ (n=3) or Pdx1-Cre;LSL-KrasG12D L/+;Pten L/+ (n=5) mice. Total RNA was collected from early passage cells.

Cells were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS, 2 mM L-Glutamine for one passage and then infected with adenovirus-Cre (5âÃâ107âplaque-forming units/1 x 106 cells). Recombination of LoxP sites was confirmed by PCR analysis. Three independent embryos per genotype were analysed using GPL6887 Illumina MouseWG-6 v2.0 expression beadchip.

Project description:Despite the high prevalence of cancers driven by KRAS mutations, to date only the G12C mutation has been clinically proven to be druggable via covalent targeting of the mutated cysteine amino acid residue. However, in many cancer indications other KRAS mutations, such as G12D and -V, are far more prevalent and small molecule concepts that can address a wider variety of oncogenic KRAS alleles are in high clinical demand. Here we show that a single small molecule degrader can be used to simultaneously and potently target multiple KRAS alleles, including those not yet tractable by inhibitors. Degradation of oncogenic KRAS results in profound and sustained pathway modulation across a broad range of KRAS mutant cell lines. As a result, KRAS degraders inhibit growth of the majority of cancer cell lines driven by KRAS mutations while sparing models without genetic KRAS aberrations. Finally, we demonstrate that pharmacological degradation of oncogenic KRAS leads to tumour regression in vivo. Together, these findings unveil a new path towards addressing KRAS driven cancers with small molecule degraders. This experiment corresponds to Figure 2g

Project description:Despite the high prevalence of cancers driven by KRAS mutations, to date only the G12C mutation has been clinically proven to be druggable via covalent targeting of the mutated cysteine amino acid residue1. However, in many cancer indications other KRAS mutations, such as G12D and -V, are far more prevalent and small molecule concepts that can address a wider variety of oncogenic KRAS alleles are in high clinical demand2. Here we show that a single small molecule can be used to simultaneously and potently degrade 13 out of 17 of the most prevalent oncogenic KRAS alleles, including those not yet tractable by inhibitors. Compared with inhibition, degradation of oncogenic KRAS results in more profound and sustained pathway modulation across a broad range of KRAS mutant cell lines. As a result, KRAS degraders inhibit growth of the majority of cancer cell lines driven by KRAS mutations while sparing models without genetic KRAS aberrations. Finally, we demonstrate that pharmacological degradation of oncogenic KRAS leads to tumour regression in vivo. Together, these findings unveil a new path towards addressing KRAS driven cancers with small molecule degraders. This is the proteomics analysis of ACBI3 and compoun 8, its negative control.

Project description:Experiment designed to study the effect of deregulated myc on pancreatic cancer progression and regression. In the KRasG12D/RosaMycER mouse model KRas and MycER are expressed exclusively in the pancreas, but MycER activity depends on Tamoxifen presence. RNAseq was preformed on pancreata from mice treated with Tamoxifen as follows: 1- Normal food. 2- Tamoxifen food 2 weeks. 3- Tamoxifen food 2 weeks, followed by normal food 1 day. 4- Tamoxifen food 2 weeks, followed by normal food 3 days.
