Sema6A and Mical1 control cell growth and survival of BRAFV600E human melanomas

ABSTRACT: Therapeutic targeting of BRAFV600Eand of MEK has shown a significant impact on progression-free and overall survival in advanced melanoma, but only a fraction of patients benefit from these treatments, suggesting that additional signaling pathways involved in melanoma growth/survival need to be identified. To this end, we used whole genome microarray analysis to identify differentially expressed genes in a set of neoplastic clones, isolated from a single melanoma metastasis, and characterized by mututally exclusive expression of BRAFV600E or NRASQ61R. By this approach we identified two genes, SEMA6A and Mical-1 belonging to the semaphorin-plexin signaling pathway and higly expressed, at mRNA and protein level, in BRAF-mutant neoplastic clones. Real-time PCR, Western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry confirmed the preferential expression of SEMA-6A and Mical-1 in BRAFV600E neoplastic cells from melanoma clones, primary and metastatic cell lines and tissue sections from melanoma lesions. SEMA6A depletion, by specific RNA-interference experiments, led to cytoskeletal remodeling, loss of stress fibers, generation of actin-rich protrusion, and cell death, whereas SEMA6A overexpression, in NRASQ61R clones, promoted invasiveness. Mical-1 depletion, by siRNA, in BRAFV600E melanomas, did not alter the actin cytoskeleton organization but caused a strong NDR phosphorylation and NDR-dependent apoptosis. Overall, these results suggest that the SEMA and MICAL pathways contribute to promote survival of BRAFV600E melanomas.

Whole genome expression data from formalin-fixed parrafin embedded (FFPE) primary and metastatic melanomas

Project description:The dominant genetic signature found in melanoma is C to T mutations due to UV radiation. Nucleotide excision repair (NER) recognises and repairs UV-induced DNA damage. We aimed to determine the effect of high UV exposure on the melanoma transcriptome and key NER transcripts in melanoma tumours in association with clinical and genetic features of the disease. 196 primary or metastatic melanomas were utilised for this study. Solar elastosis and transcriptome data was collected. mRNA transcript levels of NER components XPC, DDB1 and DDB2 were quantified and compared to clinical parameters. Solar elastosis negatively correlated with Breslow thickness (-0.251, p=0.017) and was significantly lower in BRAFV600E melanomas. Lower XPC expression was associated with BRAFV600E and NRASQ61R mutations, earlier age of diagnosis and poorer survival. Transcriptome profiling identified an over-representation of DNA repair processes in high vs low solar elastosis. Further analysis revealed DNA repair and kinase activity related transcripts in the low XPC melanomas. XPC deficiency is associated with the presence of kinase mutations and an aggressive disease phenotype, both of which result from the hypermutability of melanoma.

Gene expression profile in melanomas from Pdk1-inactivated BrafV600E::Pten-/- mice

Project description:Gene expression profiling was performed to access the changes in gene expression in melanomas from Pdk1-inactivated Brafv600E::Pten-/- mice. The expression profiles of the BrafV600E::Pten-/-::Pdk1-/- were compared to the BrafV600E::Pten-/-::Pdk+/+ genotypes. The analysis has identified several important signaling pathways in Pdk1-dependent melanomagenesis. Melanoma tumors from the BrafV600E::Pten-/-::Pdk1+/+ and BrafV600E::Pten-/-::Pdk1-/- genotypes were harvested and mRNA from each group was pooled to enable four biologically replicates analysis.

Effect of PTEN knockout on dabrafenib-trametinib treatment in A375 melanoma cells - replicate 1

Project description:Approximately 50% of melanomas harbor an activating BRAFV600E mutation. Standard of care involves a combination of inhibitors targeting mutant BRAF and MEK1/2, the substrate for BRAF in the MAPK pathway. PTEN loss of function mutations occur in 40% of BRAFV600E melanomas, resulting in increased PI3K/AKT activity that enhances resistance to BRAF/MEK combination inhibitor therapy. To compare the response of PTEN null to PTEN wild type cells in an isogenic background, CRISPR was used to knock out PTEN in the A375 melanoma cell line that harbors a BRAFV600E mutation. RNA sequencing and functional kinome analysis revealed the loss of PTEN led to an induction of FOXD3 and an increase in expression of the FOXD3 target gene, ERBB3/HER3. Inhibition of BRAFand MEK1/2 in PTEN null, BRAFV600E cells dramatically induced expression of ERBB3/HER3 relative to wild type cells. A synergy screen of epigenetic modifiers and kinase inhibitors in combination with inhibitors for mutant BRAF/MEK1/2 identified the pan ERBB/HER inhibitor, neratinib, as reversing the resistance observed in PTEN null, BRAFV600E cells. The findings indicate PTEN null BRAFV600E melanoma becomes dependent on ERBB/HER signaling when treated with clinically approved BRAF and MEK inhibitors. Future studies are warranted to test neratinib reversal of resistance in patient melanomas expressing ERBB3/HER3 in combination with its dimerization partner ERBB2/HER2.

Expression data from mouse splenocytes cocultured with differently treated KLN-205KD cells

Project description:Semophorin (SEMA) 6A showed capability to reduce the SEMA3A-derived supression of T cells. However, the effect of SEMA6A on the other immune cells was still unclear. Therefore, we performed gene expression analysis using an Affymetrix mouse genome 430 2.0 array to investigate the potential immune cells regualted by the interaction of SEMA6A and SEMA3A. Thus, we predicted other possible immune cells regulated by SEMA6A using GSEA to analyze the microarray data of co-cultured splenocytes. The reuslts revealed that SEMA6A decreased the SEMA3A-mediated inhibition of B cells and induced activities of dendritic cells in a SEMA3A-indepenet manner. Moreover, M1 and M2 macrophages were not influenced by SEMA6A and SEMA3A.

Expression data from BRAFV600E A375 melanoma cells treated with vehicle or vemurafenib

Project description:Vemurafenib is a BRAF inhibitor with specificity for the most common BRAF mutant encountered in melanomas (BRAFV600E). Vemurafenib suppresses the proliferation of BRAF mutant human melanoma cells by suppressing downstream activation of the MEK/ERK mitogen activated protein kinases. We used microarrays to examine the transcriptional response of a vemurafenib-sensitive BRAFV600E human melanoma cell line (A375) to vemurafenib in order to further delineate the mechanisms by which BRAFV600E drives cell proliferation and energy metabolism in human melanoma. BRAFV600E A375 human melanoma cells were treated with vehicle (0.1% DMSO) or 10 uM vemurafenib for 24 h after which total RNA was extracted. Cells were prepared and RNA was extracted in 3 separate batches (three different cell stocks on three separate days) providing three independent replicates (n=3). Paired replicates (prepared from the same stock of cells on the same day) are denoted by A, B and C.

Oncogenic BRAFV600E remodels the melanocyte transcriptome and induces BANCR to regulate melanoma cell migration [HT-seq]

Project description:Most cancer genomics papers to date have focused on aberrations in genomic DNA and protein-coding transcripts. However, around 50% of transcripts have no coding potential and may exist as non-coding RNA. We performed RNA-seq in BRAFv600e melanoma skin cancer and on melanocytes over-expressing oncogenic BRAF to catalog transcriptome remodeling. We discovered that BRAF regulates expression of 1027 protein coding transcripts, 39 annotated lncRNAs and 70 novel transcripts. Many of the novel transcripts are lncRNAs. We used an indepenedent dataset to interrogate our novel transcripts and found that the novel lncRNA BANCR is a BRAF-regulated lncRNA recurrently upregulated in melanoma. Knockdown of BANCR impairs melanoma cell migration. Whole transcriptome RNA-seq followed assembly to Refseq/Gencode and de novo transcript assembly. RNA-seq performed on: 2 BRAFv600e melanomas, melanocytes+RFP control and melanocytes + BRAFv600e. We discovered protein-coding transcripts, annotated ncRNAs and novel transcripts (including lncRNAs) regulated by BRAFv600e also coordinately expressed in melanoma.
