Androgen receptor-negative prostate cancer is vulnerable to SWI/SNF-targeting degrader molecules

ABSTRACT: The switch/sucrose non-fermentable (SWI/SNF) chromatin remodeling complex becomes frequently deregulated in advanced castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) therapies degrading SWI/SNF ATPases offer a novel approach to interfere with androgen receptor (AR) signaling in AR-dependent castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC-AR). To explore the utility of SWI/SNF therapy beyond AR-sensitive CRPC, we investigated SWI/SNF-targeting agents in AR-negative CRPC. SWI/SNF targeting PROTAC treatment of cell lines and organoid models reduced the viability of not only CRPC-AR but also WNT-signaling dependent AR-negative CRPC (CRPC-WNT). We discovered that SWI/SNF ATPase SMARCA4 depletion interfered with the WNT master transcriptional regulator TCF7L2 (TCF4) in CRPC-WNT.

Androgen receptor-negative prostate cancer is vulnerable to SWI/SNF-targeting degrader molecules

Project description:The switch/sucrose non-fermentable (SWI/SNF) chromatin remodeling complex becomes frequently deregulated in advanced castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). SWI/SNF ATPase degrader molecules, also known as Proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC), offer a novel approach to tackle resistance to androgen receptor (AR) antagonists in AR-dependent CRPC (CRPC-AR). However, the frequent emergence of AR-negative CRPC remains a major clinical hurdle. We investigated SWI/SNF ATPase targeting agents in AR-negative CRPC. SWI/SNF targeting PROTAC treatment reduced the viability of both CRPC-AR and WNT-signaling dependent CRPC (CRPC-WNT), which accounts for about 10% of all clinical CRPC cases. In CRPC-WNT, we characterized that SWI/SNF ATPase SMARCA4 depletion interfered with WNT signaling via the master transcriptional regulator TCF7L2 (TCF4). Functionally, TCF7L2 maintains proliferation via the AP-1/MAPK signaling axis in this subtype of CRPC.

Spermine is a natural suppressor of AR signaling in castration-resistant prostate cancer

Project description:In castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), clinical response to androgen receptor (AR) antagonists is limited mainly due to AR-variants expression and restored AR signaling. The metabolite spermine is most abundant in prostate and it decreases as prostate cancer progresses, but its functions remain poorly understood. Here, we show spermine inhibits full-length androgen receptor (AR-FL) and androgen receptor splice variant 7 (AR-V7) signaling and suppresses CRPC cell proliferation by directly binding and inhibiting protein arginine methyltransferase PRMT1. Spermine reduces H4R3me2a modification at the AR locus and suppresses AR binding as well as H3K27ac modification levels at AR target genes. Spermine supplementation restrains CRPC growth in vivo. PRMT1 inhibition also suppresses AR-FL and AR-V7 signaling and reduces CRPC growth. Collectively, we demonstrate spermine as an anticancer metabolite by inhibiting PRMT1 to transcriptionally inhibit AR-FL and AR-V7 signaling in CRPC, and we indicate spermine and PRMT1 inhibition as powerful strategies overcoming limitations of current AR-based therapies in CRPC.

Development of an Androgen Receptor Inhibitor Targeting the N-Terminal Domain of Androgen Receptor for Treatment of Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer

Project description:Prostate cancer patients undergoing androgen deprivation therapy almost invariably develop castration-resistant prostate cancer. Resistance occurs when mutations in the androgen receptor (AR) render anti-androgen drugs ineffective or when constitutively active splice variants lacking the androgen binding domain entirely (e.g. ARV7) is expressed. In this study, we are reporting the discovery of novel AR-NTD covalent inhibitor 1‐chloro‐3‐[(5‐([(2S)‐3‐chloro‐2‐hydroxypropyl]amino)naphthalen‐1‐yl)amino]propan‐2‐ol (VPC-220010) targeting the AR-N-terminal Domain (AR-NTD). VPC-220010 inhibits AR-mediated transcription of full length and truncated variant ARV7, downregulates AR response genes, and selectively reduces the growth of both full-length AR- and truncated AR-dependent prostate cancer cell lines. We show that VPC-220010 disrupts interactions between AR and its known coactivators and interactors, such as CHD4, FOXA1, ZMIZ1, and several SWI/SNF complex proteins. Taken together, our data suggest that VPC-220010 is a promising small molecule AR-NTD inhibitor for the treatment of CRPC.

Targeting SWI/SNF ATPases in enhancer-addicted prostate cancer [HiChIP-Seq]

Project description:This study profiles chromatin accessibility, gene expresison, transcription factor binding, and three-dimensional DNA-DNA contact changes upon rapid SWI/SNF ATPase inactivation in prostate cancer cells. SWI/SNF ATPases activity was disabled using a novel PROTAC degrader compound targeting the SMARCA2, SMARCA4 and PBRM1 subunits of the SWI/SNF remodeling complex.

Targeting the MLL complex in castration-resistant prostate cancer [expression]

Project description:Resistance to androgen deprivation therapies and increased androgen receptor (AR) activity are major drivers of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Prior work has focused on targeting AR directly; however, the identification and targeting of co-activators of AR signaling remains an underexplored area. Here we demonstrate that the MLL (mixed-lineage leukemia) complex, a well-known contributor in MLL-fusion-positive leukemia, acts as a co-activator of AR signaling. AR interacts with the MLL complex via its subunit, menin. Small molecule inhibition of the menin-MLL interaction blocks AR signaling and inhibits tumor growth in vivo. Furthermore, we find that menin is up-regulated in CRPC and high expression correlates with poor overall survival. Our study identifies the MLL complex as a co-activator of AR that can be targeted in advanced prostate cancer. ASH2L / Menin / MLL1 were knocked down using shRNA /siRNA in two prostate cancer cell lines, VCaP and LNCaP.

siRNA Knockdown of SWI/SNF complex proteins in prostate cancer cell lines

Project description:Here we performed transcriptional profiling of the prostate cancer cell lines LNCaP and 22Rv1 comparing non-targeting siRNA treatment versus siRNAs targeting SWI/SNF complex proteins (SMARCA2, SMARCA4, and SMARCB1). Goal was to determine the effect of SWI/SNF knockdown on gene expression in prostate cancer. Two-condition experiment: non-targeting siRNA versus SWI/SNF-siRNA treated cells. Three SWI/SNF proteins were targeted: SMARCA2, SMARCA4, and SMARB1. Biological replicates: 1 control replicate, 2 treatment replicates per SWI/SNF protein. Technical replicates: 1 replicate per SWI/SNF protein. Cell lines: 22Rv1 and LNCaP.

Identification of EP4 as a Potential Target for the Treatment of Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer Using a Novel Xenograft Model

Project description:More effective therapeutic approaches for castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) are urgently needed, thus reinforcing the need to understand how prostate tumors progress to castration resistance. We have established a novel mouse xenograft model of prostate cancer, KUCaP-2, which expresses the wild-type androgen receptor (AR) and which produces the prostate-specific antigen (PSA). In this model, tumors regress soon after castration, but then reproducibly restore their ability to proliferate after 1 to 2 months without AR mutation, mimicking the clinical behavior of CRPC. In the present study, we used this model to identify novel therapeutic targets for CRPC. Evaluating tumor tissues at various stages by gene expression profiling, we discovered that the prostaglandin E receptor EP4 subtype (EP4) was significantly upregulated during progression to castration resistance. Immunohistochemical results of human prostate cancer tissues confirmed that EP4 expression was higher in CRPC compared with hormone-naÃ¯ve prostate cancer. Ectopic overexpression of EP4 in LNCaP cells (LNCaP-EP4 cells) drove proliferation and PSA production in the absence of androgen supplementation in vitro and in vivo. Androgen-independent proliferation of LNCaP-EP4 cells was suppressed when AR expression was attenuated by RNA interference. Treatment of LNCaP-EP4 cells with a specific EP4 antagonist, ONO-AE3-208, decreased intracellular cyclic AMP levels, suppressed PSA production in vitro, and inhibited castration-resistant growth of LNCaP-EP4 or KUCaP-2 tumors in vivo. Our findings reveal that EP4 overexpression, via AR activation, supports an important mechanism for castration-resistant progression of prostate cancer. Furthermore, they prompt further evaluation of EP4 antagonists as a novel therapeutic modality to treat CRPC. 4 samples in each group: androgen-dependent growth (AD), castration-induced regression nadir (ND), and castration-resistant regrowth (CR) stages
