Diverse phospho-signaling networks mediate RTK dependent growth and survival in childhood ALL [gene expression]

ABSTRACT: Deregulated RTK activity has been implicated as a causal leukemogenic factor in the context of molecular aberrations that perturb differentiation in the hematopoietic lineage such as in childhood ALL. A deeper understanding of RTK signaling processes on a system-wide scale will be key in defining critical components of signaling networks. To link RTK activity with in vivo output in primary ALL we took a functional approach, which combined SH2 domain binding, mass spectrometry, and transcriptome analyses. Structure and composition of evolving networks were highly diverse with few generic features determined by receptor and cell type. A combinatorial assembly of varying context-dependent and few generic signaling components at multiple levels likely generates output specificity. PAK2 was identified as a phosphoregulated FLT3 target, whose allosteric inhibition resulted in apoptosis of ALL cells. Our studies provide evidence that a functional approach to leukemia signaling may yield valuable information for a network-directed intervention.

Three different primary ALL samples expressing FLT3 and/or PDGFRß were stimulated with the corresponding ligands FLT3L and PDGF-BB for five time points. Unstimulated samples served as control. ALL22089 coexpresses FLT3 and PDGFRß. ALL109 expresses PDGFRß. ALL114 expresses FLT3.

Receptor tyrosine kinase dependent phospho-signaling networks determine cellular growth and survival in acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Project description:Receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK)-dependent signaling has been implicated in the pathogenesis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) of childhood. However, the RTK-dependent signaling state and its interpretation with regard to biological behavior are often elusive. To decipher signaling circuits that link RTK activity with biological output in vivo, we established patient-derived xenograft ALL (PDX-ALL) models with dependencies on fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) and platelet-derived growth factor receptor β (PDGFRB), which were interrogated by phosphoproteomics using iTRAQ mass spectrometry. Signaling circuits were determined by receptor type and cellular context with few generic features, among which we identified group I p21-activated kinases (PAKs) as potential therapeutic targets. Growth factor stimulation markedly increased catalytic activities of PAK1 and PAK2. RNA interference (RNAi)-mediated or pharmacological inhibition of PAKs using allosteric or adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-competitive compounds attenuated cell growth and increased apoptosis in vitro. Notably, PAK1- or PAK2-directed RNAi enhanced the antiproliferative effects of the type III RTK and protein kinase C inhibitor midostaurin. Treatment of FLT3- or PDGFRB-dependent ALLs with ATP-competitive PAK inhibitors markedly decreased catalytic activities of both PAK isoforms. In FLT3-driven ALL, this effect was augmented by coadministration of midostaurin resulting in synergistic effects on growth inhibition and apoptosis. Finally, combined treatment of FLT3 D835H PDX-ALL with the ATP-competitive group I PAK inhibitor FRAX486 and midostaurin in vivo significantly prolonged leukemia progression-free survival compared with midostaurin monotherapy or control. Our study establishes PAKs as potential downstream targets in RTK-dependent ALL of childhood, the inhibition of which might help prevent the selection or acquisition of resistance mutations toward tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

Nodal points and complexity of Notch-Ras signal integration

Project description:Metazoans utilize a handful of highly conserved signaling pathways to create a signaling backbone that governs all stages of development, by providing spatial and temporal cues that influence gene expression. How these few signals have such a versatile developmental action is of significance to evolution, development, and disease. Their versatility likely depends upon the larger-scale network they form through integration. Such integration is exemplified by cross-talk between the Notch and the Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (RTK) pathways. We examined the transcriptional output of Notch-RTK cross-talk during Drosophila development and present in vivo data that supports a role for selected mutually-regulated genes as potentially important nodal points for signal integration. We find the complex interplay between these pathways involves their mutual regulation of numerous core components of RTK signaling in addition to targets that include components of all the major signalling pathways (TGF-β, Hh, Jak/Stat, Nuclear Receptor and Wnt). Interestingly, Notch-RTK integration did not lead to general antagonism of either pathway, as is commonly believed. Instead, integration had a combinatorial effect on specific cross-regulated targets, which unexpectedly included the majority of Ras-responsive genes, suggesting Notch can specify the response to Ras activation.

Capicua controls Toll/IL-1 signaling targets independently of RTK regulation

Project description:The HMG-box protein Capicua (Cic) is a conserved transcriptional repressor that functions downstream of receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signaling pathways in a relatively simple switch: in the absence of signaling, Cic represses RTK-responsive genes by binding to nearly invariant sites in DNA, whereas activation of RTK signaling downregulates Cic activity, leading to derepression of its targets. This mechanism controls gene expression in both Drosophila and mammals, but whether Cic can also function via other regulatory mechanisms remains unknown. Here we characterize an RTK-independent role of Cic in regulating spatially restricted expression of Toll/IL-1 signaling targets in Drosophila embryogenesis. We show that Cic represses those targets by binding to suboptimal DNA sites of lower affinity than its known consensus sites. This binding depends on Dorsal/NF-kB, which translocates into the nucleus upon Toll activation and binds next to the Cic sites. As a result, Cic binds to and represses Toll targets only in regions with nuclear Dorsal. These results reveal a new mode of Cic regulation unrelated to the well-established RTK-Cic depression axis and implicate cooperative binding in conjunction with low-affinity binding sites as an important mechanism of enhancer regulation. Given that Cic plays a role in many developmental and pathological processes in mammals, our results raise the possibility that some of these Cic functions are independent of RTK regulation and may depend on cofactor-assisted DNA binding.

Feedback circuitry between miR-218 repression and RTK activation in glioblastoma

Project description:Receptor tyrosine kinase pathway signalings plays a central role in the growth and progression of glioblastoma, a highly aggressive group of brain tumors. We recently reported that miR-218 repression, an essentially uniform feature of human GBM, directly promotes RTK hyperactivation by increasing the expression of key positive signaling effectors, including EGFR, PLCr1, PIK3CA and ARAF. However, enhanced RTK signaling is known to activate compensatory inhibitory feedback mechanisms in both normal and cancer cells. We demonstrate here that miR-218 repression in GBM cells also increases the abundance of additional up stream and downstream signaling mediators, including PDGFRa, RSK2, and S6K1, which collectively funciton to alleviate inhibitory RTK feedback regulation. In turn, RTK signaling suppresses miR-218 expression via STAT3, which binds to the miR-218 locus, along with BCLAF1, to repress its expression. These data identify novel interacting feedback loops by which miR-218 repression promotes increased RTK signaling in high-grade gliomas.

Complementary omics strategies to dissect p53 signaling networks under nutrient stress

Project description:Signaling trough cytoplasmic or nuclear action of p53 is a major response mechanism to cellular stresses. While p53 protein levels have been shown to increase upon nutrient stresses such as starvation, the exact signaling cascade in this context remains elusive. Here, we show in a human hepatoma cell line that nutrient withdrawal leads to robust nuclear p53 stabilization and utilize various complementary omics approaches to dissect upstream and downstream networks in the response to starvation. Using the affinity purification mass spectrometry (MS) method BioID, we determine the cytoplasmic p53 interaction network within the immediate-early starvation response and show that p53 is dissociated from several metabolic enzymes and the kinase PAK2. Direct binding of p53 DNA-binding domain and N-terminal PAK2 was confirmed with nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) interaction studies. Furthermore, rapid immunoprecipitation MS of endogenous proteins (RIME) uncovered the nuclear interactome under prolonged starvation, where we confirmed the novel p53 interactors SORBS1, involved in insulin signaling, and UGP2, a key enzyme of glycogen synthesis. Finally, transcriptomics after p53 re-expression on a CRISPR/Cas9 knock out background revealed a distinct starvation-specific transcriptome response and suggested novel nutrient-dependent p53 target genes. Together, our complementary approaches delineate several nodes of the p53 signaling cascade in response to starvation, shedding new light on the mechanisms of p53 as a nutrient stress sensor and regulator of specific transcriptional output. Given the central role of p53 in cancer biology and the beneficial effects of fasting in cancer treatment, the identified interaction partners and networks could pinpoint novel pharmacologic targets to fine-tune p53 activity.
