BRAF inhibition leads to oxidative phosphorylation and cellular senescence in human melanoma cells

ABSTRACT: Targeting components of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway prolongs survival of patients with advanced BRAFV600E melanomas but such an approach is not curative because of the rapid acquisition of numerous resistance mechanisms. Here we analyze melanoma cells that evade MAPK inhibitors by undergoing a senescence-like, slow-growth, phenotype, which leads to acquired resistance. The initial therapeutic response is characterized by an integrated stress response program, including stimulation of autophagic flux, activation of the endoplasmic reticulum machinery, and an enhanced ability of detoxifying reactive oxygen species. Reversibly senescent cells also exhibit an increase in mitochondrial genome copy number and a strong metabolic shift towards oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos). Inducing mitochondrial dysfunction by co-targeting the MAPK pathway and mitochondrial Hsp90-directed protein folding with specific inhibitors prevented entry of cells into a reversibly senescent state, suppressed mitochondrial energy metabolism and augmented therapy response.

Combinatorial treatment with PARP and MAPK inhibitors overcomes phenotype switch-driven drug resistance in advanced melanoma

Project description:Metastatic melanoma is either intrinsically resistant or rapidly acquires resistance to targeted therapy treatments, such as MAPK inhibitors. A leading cause of resistance to targeted therapy is a dynamic transition of melanoma cells from a proliferative to a highly invasive state, a phenomenon called phenotype switching. Mechanisms regulating phenotype switching represent potential targets for improving treatment of melanoma patients. Using a drug screen targeting chromatin regulators in patient-derived 3D MAPK inhibitor-resistant melanoma cell cultures, we discovered that PARP inhibitors restore sensitivity to MAPK inhibitors, independent of DNA damage repair pathways. Integrated transcriptomic, proteomic, and epigenomic analyses demonstrated that PARP inhibitors induce lysosomal autophagic cell death, accompanied by enhanced mitochondrial lipid metabolism that ultimately increases antigen presentation and sensitivity to T-cell cytotoxicity. Moreover, transcriptomic and epigenetic rearrangements induced by PARP inhibition reversed EMT-like phenotype switching, which redirected melanoma cells toward a proliferative and MAPK inhibitor-sensitive state. The combination of PARP and MAPK inhibitors synergistically induced cancer cell death both in vitro and in vivo in patient-derived xenograft models. Therefore, this study provides a scientific rationale for treating melanoma patients with PARP inhibitors in combination with MAPK inhibitors to abrogate acquired therapy resistance.

Quantitative Tyr Phosphoproteomic Analyses of Tumor Adaptive Response to MAPK Inhibition

Project description:Although targeted inhibition of the MAPK pathway has achieved remarkable patient responses in many cancers with MAPK hyperactivation, the development of resistance has remained a critical challenge. Besides genomic resistance mechanisms, adaptive tumor response also underlies the resistance to targeted MAPK inhibitors. It is being increasingly appreciated that such bypass mechanisms often lead to the activation of many pro-survival kinases, which complicates the rational design of combination therapies. Here we performed global tyrosine phosphoproteomic (pTyr) analyses and demonstrated that targeted inhibition of MAPK signaling in melanoma cells leads to a profound remodeling of the pTyr proteome. Intriguingly, many of these kinases contain a cholesterol binding motif, suggesting that altered cholesterol metabolism might drive, in a coordinated fashion, the activation of these kinases. Indeed, we found a dramatic accumulation of intracellular cholesterol in melanoma cells (with BRAFV600E mutations) and non-small cell lung cancer cells (with KRasG12C mutations) treated with MAPK and KrasG12C inhibitors, respectively. Importantly, depletion of cholesterol not only prevents the MAPK inhibition-induced feedback activation of pTyr singling but also enhances the cytotoxic effects of MAPK inhibitors, both in vitro and in vivo. Taken together, our findings provide the evidence suggesting that cholesterol functions as a master regulator of the tumor adaptive response to targeted MAPK inhibitors. These results also suggest that MAPK inhibitors could be combined with cholesterol-lowering agents to achieve a more complete and durable response in tumors with hyperactive MAPK signaling.

Activation of STAT3 through SRC and EGFR Drives Resistance to a Mitotic Kinesin Inhibitor in Glioblastoma [bulk RNA-seq]

Project description:Inhibitors of the mitotic kinesin Kif11 are anti-mitotics that, unlike vinca alkaloids or taxanes, do not disrupt microtubules and are not neurotoxic. However, development of resistance has limited their clinical utility. While resistance to Kif11 inhibitors in other cell types is due to mechanisms that prevent these drugs from disrupting mitosis, we find that in glioblastoma (GBM), resistance to the Kif11 inhibitor ispinesib works instead through suppression of apoptosis driven by activation of STAT3. This form of resistance requires dual phosphorylation of STAT3 residues Y705 and S727, mediated by SRC and EGFR, respectively. Simultaneously inhibiting SRC and EGFR reverses this resistance, and combined targeting of these two kinases in vivo with clinically available inhibitors is synergistic and significantly prolongs survival in ispinesib-treated GBM-bearing mice. We thus identify a translationally actionable approach to overcoming Kif11 inhibitor resistance that may work to block STAT3-driven resistance against other anti-cancer therapies as well.

Mediator Kinase Inhibition Impedes Transcriptional Plasticity and Prevents Resistance to ERK/MAPK-Targeted Therapy in KRAS-Mutant Cancers

Project description:Acquired resistance remains a major challenge for therapies targeting oncogene activated pathways. KRAS is the most frequently mutated oncogene in human cancers, yet strategies targeting its downstream signaling kinases have failed to produce durable treatment responses. Here, we developed multiple models of acquired resistance to dual-mechanism ERK/MAPK inhibitors across KRAS-mutant pancreatic, colorectal, and lung cancers, and then probed the long-term events enabling survival against this class of drugs. These studies revealed that resistance emerges secondary to large-scale transcriptional adaptations that are diverse and tumor-specific. Transcriptional reprogramming extends beyond the well-established early response, and instead represents a dynamic, evolved population-level process that is refined to attain a stably resistant phenotype. Mechanistic and translational studies reveal that resistance to dual-mechanism ERK/MAPK inhibition is broadly susceptible to manipulation of the epigenetic machinery, and that Mediator kinase, in particular, can be co-targeted at a bottleneck point to prevent diverse, tumor-specific resistance programs.

Senescent glia link neuronal mitochondrial dysfunction and lipid droplet accumulation with age [19082-12_MASTER]

Project description:Senescence is a cellular state linked to aging and age-onset disease across many mammalian species. Acutely, senescent cells promote wound healing and prevent tumor formation; but they are also pro-inflammatory, thus chronically exacerbate tissue decline. While senescent cells are active targets for anti-aging therapy, why these cells form in vivo, how they affect tissue aging, and the impact of their elimination remain unclear. Here we identify naturally-occurring senescent glia in aged Drosophila brains and decipher their origin and influence. Using AP1 activity to screen for senescence, we determine that senescent glia can appear in response to neuronal mitochondrial dysfunction. In turn, senescent glia promote lipid accumulation in non-senescent glia; similar effects are seen in senescent human fibroblasts in culture. Targeting AP1 activity in senescent glia mitigates senescence biomarkers, extends fly life and health span, and prevents lipid accumulation. However, these benefits come at the cost of increased oxidative damage in the brain, and neuronal mitochondrial function remains poor. Altogether, our results map the trajectory of naturally-occurring senescent glia in vivo and indicate that these cells link key aging phenomena: mitochondrial dysfunction and lipid accumulation.

Combinatorial treatment with PARP and MAPK inhibitors to overcome phenotype switch-driven drug resistance in advanced melanoma

Project description:Metastatic melanoma is either intrinsically resistant or rapidly acquires resistance to targeted drugs such as MAPK inhibitors (MAPKi). Here, using a drug screen targeting chromatin regulators in patient-derived 3D melanoma cell cultures, we discovered that PARP inhibitors are capable of restoring MAPKi sensitivity. This synergy was found to be independent of DNA damage repair pathways and was effective both in vitro and in vivo in patients-derived xenografts. Strikingly, through integrated transcriptomic, proteomic and epigenomic analysis, we discovered that PARPi induces lysosomal autophagy which was accompanied by enhanced mitochondrial lipid metabolism that, ultimately, increased antigen presentation and sensitivity to T-cell cytotoxicity. Moreover, we also found that PARP inhibitors regulated EMT-like phenotype switching by dampening the mesenchymal phenotype via transcriptomic and epigenetic rearrangements. This, in turn, redirected melanoma cells towards a proliferative and, thus, MAPKi-sensitive state. Our study provides a scientific rational for treating patients with PARPi in combination with MAPKi to annihilate acquired therapy resistance.
