Targeting EZH2 methyltransferase activity in ARID1A mutated cells as a synthetic lethal therapeutic strategy

ABSTRACT: ARID1A, an epigentic modifier, is often mutated in ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC). In addition, EZH2 is frequently upregulated in OCCC. Inhibtion of EZH2 with an inhibitor (GSK126) selectively inhibits ARID1A-mutated cells. This study was designed to understand changes in gene expression profiles following EZH2 inhibition or ARID1A restoration.

Targeting EZH2 methyltransferase activity in ARID1A mutated cells as a synthetic lethal therapeutic strategy

Project description:ARID1A, an epigentic modifier, is often mutated in ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC). In addition, EZH2 is frequently upregulated in OCCC. Inhibtion of EZH2 with an inhibitor (GSK126) selectively inhibits ARID1A-mutated cells. This study was designed to understand changes in gene expression profiles following EZH2 inhibition or ARID1A restoration. Chromatin remodelers such as ARID1A are frequently mutated in a broad array of cancers. However, targeted cancer therapy based on ARID1A mutation status has not been described. Intriguingly, ARID1A mutated cancers typically lack genomic instability, suggesting significant involvement of epigenetic mechanisms. Here we show that inhibition of the EZH2 methyltransferase acts in a synthetic lethal manner in ARID1A mutated cells. Remarkably, ARID1A mutation status correlated with response to EZH2 inhibitor. Genome-wide profiling revealed antagonistic roles of ARID1A and EZH2 in gene regulation. Further, we identified PIK3IP1 as a direct ARID1A/EZH2 target gene whose upregulation contributes to the observed synthetic lethality in the EZH2 inhibitor treated ARID1A mutated cells. Significantly, EZH2 inhibitor caused the regression of established ARID1A mutated tumors in vivo. Together, this data demonstrate a synthetic lethality between ARID1A mutation and EZH2 inhibition. They indicate that pharmacological inhibition of EZH2 represents a novel treatment strategy for ARID1A mutated cancers.

PPP2R1A mutations cause ATR inhibitor synthetic lethality in ARID1A deficient ovarian clear cell carcinoma

Project description:Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a cancer of unmet need characterized by ARID1A mutation. Prior work identified an ARID1A/ATR synthetic lethality, information that led to phase II clinical trials. Using genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 mutagenesis and interference screens, we identified protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) subunits, including PPP2R1A, as determinants of ATRi sensitivity in ARID1A mutant OCCC. Analysis of an OCCCs cohort indicated that >1/3 possessed both PPP2R1A and ARID1A loss-of-function mutations. CRISPR-prime editing demonstrated that oncogenic PPP2R1A p.R183 missense mutations enhance in vitro and in vivo ATRi sensitivity in ARID1A mutant OCCC. OCCC patients with both ARID1A and PPP2R1A mutations also showed clinical responses to ATRi in a phase II trial. Mechanistically, this synthetic lethal effect is dependent upon WNK1 kinase, which opposes PP2A function. This data suggests that co-occurrence of PPP2R1A and ARID1A mutations in OCCC should be assessed as a biomarker of ATRi response in on-going clinical trials.

Synthetic lethality between ARID1A mutation and HDAC2 inhibition in ovarian cancer

Project description:ARID1A, encoding a subunit of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex, is the most frequently mutated epigenetic regulators in human cancers. ARID1A is mutated in over 50% ovarian clear cell carcinoma, a disease currently has no effective therapy. Here we show that ARID1A-mutated ovarian cancer cells are selectively sensitive to inhibition of HDAC2 activity. HDAC2 interacts with EZH2 in an ARID1A status dependent manner. HDAC2 knockdown inhibits the growth of ARID1A inactivated by not proficient ovarian cancer cells. HDAC2 functions as a co-repressor of EZH2 to suppress the expression of EZH2/ARID1A target tumor suppressor genes such as PIK3IP1, an inhibitor of PI3K/AKT signaling, to inhibit proliferation and promote apoptosis. Indeed, a FDA-approved pan-HDAC inhibitor suberoylannilide hydroxamine (SAHA) significantly suppressed the growth and reduced the ascites of the ARID1A-inactivated ovarian cancers in both orthotopic and genetic mouse models. This correlated with a significant improvement of survival of mice bearing ARID1A-mutated ovarian cancers.

Loss of HDAC-mediated repression and gain of NF-kB activation underlies cytokine induction in ARID1A and PIK3CA mutation-driven ovarian cancer

Project description:ARID1A is frequently mutated in ovarian clear-cell carcinoma (OCCC) and often co-exists with activating mutations of PIK3CA. Although induction of pro-inflammatory cytokines has been observed in this cancer, the mechanism by which the two mutations synergistically activate cytokine genes remains elusive. Here we established an in vitro model of OCCC by introducing ARID1A knock-down and mutant PIK3CA in a normal human ovarian epithelial cell line, which resulted in cell transformation and cytokine gene induction. We demonstrate that loss of ARID1A impairs the recruitment of the Sin3A-HDAC complex, while PIK3CA mutation releases RelA from IkB, leading to cytokine gene activation. We show that an NF-kB inhibitor partly attenuates proliferation of OCCC and improves the efficacy of carboplatin both in cell culture and a mouse model. Our study thus reveals the mechanistic link between ARID1A/PIK3CA mutations and cytokine gene induction in OCCC, and suggests NF-kB inhibition can be a potential therapeutic option.

Effect of EZH2 inhibition on ARID1A mutant bladder cancer cell lines

Project description:ARID1A, a subunit of SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex. SWI/SNF complex can regulate expression of genes involved in vital biological processes such as cell cycle, DNA damage repair and development. ARID1A is known to have high mutation rate in human cancers including bladder cancer, leading to its loss of function. Publicly available whole exome sequencing data for muscle invasive and non-muscle invasive bladder cancers, show fraction of tumors with truncated ARID1A. Thus identifying therapeutic strategies for ARID1A mutant cancers is of high importance. EZH2, a histone methyltransferase is known to over-express and play pivotal role in aggressive bladder cancer. Our preliminary studies show that treatment of EZH2 inhibitor (GSK126) on ARID1A mutant bladder cancer cells significantly reduced cancer cell viability, invasion and colony formation relative to wild type ARID1A containing cells. Here, we performed microarray experiments to assess the effect of EZH2 inhibitor on global transcriptome of both ARID1A mutant and wild type bladder cancer cell line.

Coexistent ARID1A-PIK3CA mutations promote ovarian clear cell tumorigenesis through pro-tumorigenic inflammatory cytokine signaling

Project description:Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is an aggressive form of ovarian cancer with high ARID1A mutation rates. Here we present a genetically engineered mouse model of OCCC. We find that ARID1A inactivation is not sufficient for tumor formation, but requires concurrent activation of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase catalytic subunit, PIK3CA. Remarkably, the mice develop highly penetrant tumors with OCCC-like histopathology, culminating in hemorrhagic ascites and a median survival period of 7.5 weeks. Therapeutic treatment with the pan-PI3K inhibitor, BKM120, prolonged mouse survival by inhibiting tumor cell growth. Cross-species gene expression comparisons support a role for IL-6 inflammatory cytokine signaling in OCCC pathogenesis. We further show that ARID1A-PIK3CA mutations cooperate to promote tumor growth through sustained IL-6 overproduction. Our findings establish an epistatic relationship between SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling and PI3K pathway mutations in OCCC and demonstrate that these pathways converge on pro-tumorigenic cytokine signaling. We propose that ARID1A protects against inflammation-driven tumorigenesis.

Transcriptomic profiling for differential gene expression in ARID1A-wt and ARID1A-deficient bladder cancer cells with and without GSK126 (an EZH2 inhibitor) treatment

Project description:Metastatic urothelial carcinoma of the bladder is generally incurable with current systemic therapies. Chromatin modifiers are frequently mutated in bladder cancer, with ARID1A inactivating mutations present in 20% of tumors. EZH2 is a histone methyltransferase that acts as an oncogene that functionally opposes ARID1A. In addition, PI3K signaling is activated in over 20% of bladder cancers. Here we show that ARID1A-mutant tumors are more sensitive to EZH2 inhibition than ARID1A-wild-type tumors. Mechanistic studies reveal that: 1) ARID1A deficiency results in a dependency on PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling via upregulation of a non-canonical PI3K regulatory subunit PIK3R3, and: 2) EZH2 inhibitor sensitivity is due to upregulation of PIK3IP1, an inhibitor protein of PI3K signaling. Thus, our studies suggest that a subset of bladder cancers with ARID1A mutations can be treated with inhibitors of EZH2 and/or PI3K, and reveal novel mechanistic insights into the role of non-canonical PI3K constituents in bladder cancer biology.

Catalytic subunits switch drives resistance to EZH2 inhibitors in ARID1A-mutated cells [RNA-seq]

Project description:The SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex is altered in ~20% of human cancers. ARID1A, a component of the SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex, is the most frequently mutated epigenetic regulator in human cancers. Inactivation of the SWI/SNF complex is synthetically lethal with inhibition of EZH2 activity. EZH2 inhibitors are entering clinical trials for specific tumor types with SWI/SNF mutations. However, mechanisms of de novo or acquired resistance to EZH2 inhibitors in cancers with inactivating SWI/SNF mutations are unknown. Here we show that the switch of the SWI/SNF catalytic subunits from SMARCA4 to SMARCA2 drives resistance to EZH2 inhibitors in ARID1A-mutated ovarian cancer cells.
