Expression profiling of MAPK inhibition in WM266-4 BRAF V600D mutant melanoma cell line

ABSTRACT: Extracellular signal regulated kinases, ERK1 and ERK2 are often considered as redundant due to their high homology, large number of overlapping substrates, and ability to substitute for each other in genetically engineered mouse models. We have investigated the individual contribution of ERK1 and ERK2 to the survival of human melanoma cell lines driven by oncogenic BRAF. ERK2, but not ERK1 activity, was crucial to drive survival and maintain transcriptional output of the MAPK pathway. Furthermore, we found that ERK2 DEF-domain interactions were crucial for transcriptional regulation and survival in some cells, but not in others, whereas ERK2-substrate interactions at the D-docking motif were largely dispensable. We used microarrays to examine the global impact of gene expression by imhibiting different nodes of MAPK pathway.

Expression data from ERK1/2 null endothelial cells

Project description:Angiogenesis is a complex process orchestrated by both growth factors and cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix and is initiated by focal degradation of the vascular basement membrane with subsequent migration and proliferation of endothelial cells (EC). The Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK pathway is critical for EC function during angiogensis. Although in vitro studies implicate ERK1 and ERK2 in EC survival, their precise role in EC function in vivo remains poorly defined. Cre/loxP technology was used to inactivate Erk1 and Erk2 in EC during murine development, resulting in embryonic lethality due to a drastic reduction in angiogenesis. The angiogenic defect was linked to diminished EC proliferation and migration, but not to increased cell apoptosis. Expression of key cell cycle regulators was diminished in the double knockout cells. In addition, both Paxillin and Focal Adhesion Kinase were expressed at lower levels and failed to correctly localize to the cell membrane in EC lacking Erk1 and Erk2, leading to defects in the organization of the cytoskeleton and in cell motility. The results demonstrate that ERK1 and ERK2 coordinate cell proliferation and migration during angiogenesis. Lentivirus infected cells to generate ERK1/2 WT and ERK1/2 DKO endothelial cells were cultured, RNA was extracted and Affymetrix gene expression arrays were performed.

Proteomic and phosphoproteomics profiling depict drug addiction mechanisms in BRAFi-resistant melanoma

Project description:Acquired resistance to MAPK inhibitors limits the clinical efficacy in melanoma treatment. We and others have recently shown that BRAF inhibitors (BRAFi)-resistant melanoma cells can develop a dependency on the therapeutic drugs to which they have acquired resistance, creating a vulnerability for these cells that can potentially be exploited in cancer treatment. In drug addicted melanoma cells, it was shown that this induction of cell death was preceded by a specific ERK2-dependent phenotype switch, however, the underlying molecular mechanisms are largely lacking. To increase the molecular understanding of this drug dependency, we applied a mass spectrometry-based proteomic approach on BRAFi-resistant BRAFMUT 451Lu cells, in which ERK1, ERK2 and JUNB were silenced separately using CRISPR–Cas9. Inactivation of ERK2 and, to a lesser extent, JUNB prevents drug addiction in these melanoma cell while, conversely, knock out of ERK1 fails to reverse this phenotype, showing a response similar to control cells. Our analysis reveals that ERK2 and JUNB share comparable proteome responses dominated by reactivation of cell division. Importantly, we find that EMT activation in drug addicted melanoma cells upon drug withdrawal is affected by silencing ERK2 but not ERK1. Moreover, transcription factor (regulator) enrichment shows that PIR acts as an effector of ERK2 and phosphoproteome analysis reveals that silencing of ERK2 but not ERK1 leads to amplification of GSK3 kinase activity. Our results depict possible mechanisms of drug addiction in melanoma, which may provide a guide for strategies in drug-resistant melanoma.

Vasopressin V2 Receptor, Tolvaptan, and ERK1/2 Phosphorylation in the Renal Collecting Duct II

Project description:Activation of ERK1 and ERK2 is essential in regulation of a wide variety of cellular and physiological processes. In native inner medullary collecting ducts, vasopressin (AVP) working through the V2 subtype vasopressin receptor (V2R)-mediated activation of Gαs, inhibits ERK1 and ERK2 activity. However, it has been reported that V2R can signal independently of Gαs through the activation of β-arrestin, which activates ERK1 and ERK2. Vaptans, V2R antagonists that function as so-called “inverse agonists”, have the potential of promoting cell proliferation via β-arrestin-dependent ERK activation. Here we use the mpkCCD cell line which natively expresses V2R to investigate the effects of AVP, the V2-selective analog dDAVP, and tolvaptan on ERK1 and ERK2 phosphorylation and activation. We demonstrated that ERK1 and ERK2 phosphorylation in mpkCCD cells was significantly reduced by either AVP or dDAVP, in contrast to the increases seen in non-collecting duct cells overexpressing V2R. We also found that tolvaptan has a strong effect to increase ERK1 and ERK2 phosphorylation in the presence of dDAVP and that the tolvaptan effect to increase ERK1 and ERK2 phosphorylation is absent in PKA-null mpkCCD cells. Thus, it appears that the tolvaptan effect to increase ERK activation is PKA-dependent and, therefore, not mediated by the β-arrestin pathway. Overall, the studies show that AVP decreases and that tolvaptan increases ERK1 and ERK2 activation in cells expressing V2R at endogenous levels, and provide no evidence for a role for β-arrestin in the regulation of ERK1 and ERK2 activity.

Genomic Collaboration of Estrogen Receptor-Î± and ERK2 in Regulating Gene and Proliferation Programs

Project description:The nuclear hormone receptor, estrogen receptor-alpha (ERÎ±), and MAP kinases both play key roles in hormone-dependent cancers, yet their interplay and the integration of their signaling inputs remain poorly understood. In these studies, we document that estrogen-occupied ERÎ± activates and interacts with ERK2, a downstream effector in the MAPK pathway, resulting in ERK2 and ERÎ± colocalization at chromatin binding sites across the genome of breast cancer cells. KEYWORDS: siRNA knock-down, ligand treatment MCF-7 human breast adenocarcinoma cells were tranfected with control, ERK1 and ERK2 siRNA for 60 hours and treated with 0.1% EtOH (Vehicle) or 10 nM E2 for 4 hours or 24 hours, and cDNA microarray analyses were carried out using Affymetrix [HG-U133A_2] Affymetrix Human Genome U133A 2.0 Array.

RNA-seq data of BRAF wild-type and BRAF mutant tumor cells treated with the ERK inhibitor GDC-0994

Project description:BRAF or RAS mutation-induced aberrant activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway is frequently observed in human cancers. As the key downstream node of MAPK pathway, ERK1/2 is as an important therapeutic target. GDC-0994 (ravoxertinib), an orally bioavailable, highly selective small-molecule inhibitor of ERK1/2, showed acceptable safety and pharmacodynamic profile in a recent phase I clinical trial. In this study, we investigated dependence of the anti-tumor effect of ERK inhibitor GDC-0994 on genetic alterations in the MAPK pathway. Our date showed that the expression of a large number of genes, particularly the genes in the cell cycle pathway, were significantly changed after GDC-0994 treatment in BRAF mutant cells, while no remarkable expression change of such genes was observed in wild-type cells.

Depletion of Erk1 and Erk2 MAP kinases in primary human keratinocytes

Project description:We assessed the effect of RNAi-mediated MAP kinase cascade signaling blockade in primary human keratinocytes. Two sets of siRNA targeting different regions of the Erk1/2 genes were used, enabling identification of off-target siRNA effects. Primary human keratinocytes were electroporated with scrambled control siRNA, a pair of siRNA oligomers against Erk1 and Erk2 (set A), or an independent pair of siRNA oligomers against Erk1 and Erk2 (set B). Four days after electroporation, RNA was harvested. Three biological replicates were performed for each of the three siRNA groups.

Transcription profiling of ERK1 and ERK2 knockdown in zebrafish embryos at blastula stage

Project description:ERK1 and ERK2 MAPKs are intensively studied signaling proteins that are involved in numerous cellular processes and signaling networks. However, their specific functions in embryonic development remain elusive. The upstream activation pathways for ERK1 and ERK2 are considered to be highly similar, and also many of their downstream targets are considered as common, but still relatively few in vivo downstream targets of these kinases have been identified conclusively. Recent mice studies indicate distinct roles for both ERKs in cellular proliferation, oncogenic transformation and development. <br><br>Microarray experiments were performed to compare morpholino mediated knockdown of ERK1 versus ERK2 in zebrafish development. These two conditions were compared to a standard control morpholino condition. To exclude possible effects of the control morpholino at a transcriptional level, we also performed the transciptome-analysis of the control morpholino, to an injection control (injection with phenol red).
