Project description:Analysis of gene expression in LKB1(Stk11)-depleted sciatic nerves (LKB1-SCKO) vs control nerves from age-matched mice. Gene expression profiles are predominantly derived from Schwann cell glia and provide important information about the response of peripheral nerve Schwann cells to inactivation of the metabolic regulator protein LKB1(aka Stk11). Total RNA obtained from sciatic nerve segments from 6 LKB1-SCKO mutant mice compared to RNA from nerve segments from 6 control mice (floxed LKB1 mutant mice that do not express Cre recombinase).

Project description:Mutations in STK11/LKB1 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are associated with poor patient responses to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) and introduction of a Stk11/Lkb1 (L) mutation into murine lung adenocarcinomas driven by mutant Kras and Trp53 loss (KP) resulted in an ICB refractory syngeneic KPL tumor. Mechanistically this occurred because KPL mutant NSCLCs lacked TCF1-expressing CD8 T cells, a phenotype recapitulated in human STK11/LKB1 mutant NSCLCs. Systemic inhibition of Axl results in increased type I interferon secretion from dendritic cells that expanded tumor-associated TCF1+ PD-1+ CD8 T cells, restoring therapeutic response to PD-1 ICB for KPL tumors. This was observed in syngeneic immunocompetent mouse models and in humanized mice bearing STK11/LKB1 mutant NSCLC human tumor xenografts. NSCLC patients with identified STK11/LKB1 mutations receiving bemcentinib and pembrolizumab demonstrated objective clinical response to combination therapy. We conclude that AXL is a critical targetable driver of immune suppression in STK11/LKB1 mutant NSCLC.

Project description:The purpose of the experiment is to study the expression profiles variations upon the expression of the wild type isoform of LKB1 (STK11) in human lung carcinoma A459 cells. These cells are KRAS mutated and null for STK11. Cells were previously infected with the lentiviral construct pLenti-rtTA2-IRES-H2B-GFP doxycycline-inducible plasmid (obtained from S. Tenbaum, HG Palmer’s Lab Vall d´Hebron Institute of Oncology, VHIO) containing the human STK11wild type cDNA.

Project description:The myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) frequently progress to blast phase disease, an aggressive form of acute myeloid leukemia. To identify genes that suppress disease progression, we performed a focused CRISPR/Cas9 screen and discovered that depletion of LKB1/Stk11 led to enhanced in vitro self-renewal of murine MPN cells. Deletion of Stk11 in a mouse MPN model caused rapid lethality with enhanced fibrosis, osteosclerosis, and an accumulation of immature cells in the bone marrow, as well as enhanced engraftment of primary human MPN cells in vivo. LKB1 loss was associated with increased mitochondrial reactive oxygen species and stabilization of HIF1α, and downregulation of LKB1 and increased levels of HIF1α were observed in human blast phase MPN specimens. Of note, we observed strong concordance of pathways that were enriched in murine MPN cells with LKB1 loss with those enriched in blast phase MPN patient specimens, supporting the conclusion that STK11 is a tumor suppressor in the MPNs.

Project description:STK11 (LKB1) missense somatic mutant isoforms promote tumor growth, motility and inflammation. Elucidating the contribution of somatic mutations to cancer is essential for personalized medicine. STK11 (LKB1) tumor suppressor appears to be inactivated in human cancer, however, somatic missense mutations also occur. Despite of our increased knowledge about LKB1 function, the role/s of these alterations in cancer are mostly unknown. Here, we investigated the contribution of four missense LKB1 somatic mutations in tumor biology. Three, out of the four mutants, lost their tumor suppressor capabilities and showed a deficient kinase activity. The remaining mutant conserved the enzymatic activity, but conferred an increased cell motility. Mechanistically, LKB1 mutants promoted the differential gene expression regulation of vesicle trafficking regulating molecules, adhesion molecules and cytokines, that correlated with the identified protein networks associated to the comparative secretome analysis. Notably, three mutant isoforms promoted tumor growth, and one of them induced inflammation and hemorrhagic tumors that correlated with the deregulated levels of cytokines. Altogether, our findings uncover oncogenic roles of LKB1 somatic mutations helping to understand their contribution to cancer.

Project description:Germline mutations in LKB1 (STK11) are associated with the Peutz–Jeghers syndrome (PJS), which includes aberrant mucocutaneous pigmentation, and somatic LKB1 mutations occur in 10% of cutaneous melanoma. By somatically inactivating Lkb1 with K-Ras activation (+/- p53 loss) in murine melanocytes, we observed variably pigmented and highly metastatic melanoma with 100% penetrance. LKB1 deficiency resulted in increased phosphorylation of the SRC-family kinase (SFK) YES and the subsequent expansion of a CD24+ cell population which showed increased metastatic behavior in vitro and in vivo relative to isogenic CD24- cells. These results suggest that LKB1 inactivation in the context of RAS activation facilitates metastasis by inducing a SFK-dependent expansion of a pro-metastatic, CD24+ tumor sub-population reference x sample

Project description:LKB1 deficiency in Treg cells impairs their survival, metabolism and suppressive function. To exclude the impact of excessive inflammation on LKB1-deficient Treg cells, we generated mixed bone marrow (BM) chimeras using Foxp3-Cre WT and Foxp3-Cre Stk11 fl/fl BM cells, together with CD45.1+ BM cells. We used microarray to compare the global transcription profile of dornor-derived LKB1-deficient Tregs with WT counterparts.

Project description:Inactivating mutations in LKB1/STK11 are present in ~20% of non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) and portend poor response to anti-PD-1 immunotherapy in patients and genetically engineered mouse model (GEMMs). Here, we sought to uncover the basis for immunotherapy resistance of these tumors and to define strategies that overcome this barrier. Whereas high tumor mutational burden (TMB) often correlates with response to anti-PD1 treatment, we found that LKB1-deficient NSCLCs from non-smokers and GEMMs exhibited striking elevations in nonsynonymous mutations compared to LKB1 wildtype tumors. Correspondingly, LKB1 mutant NSCLC cell lines showed defects in both replication dependent and independent double-strand DNA break (DSB) repair, which were reversed upon LKB1 re-expression.

Project description:The aim of our study is to determine the functions of histone deacetylases (HDACs) 1 and 2 in Schwann cells during postnatal development of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Schwann cells are the myelinating glial cells of the PNS. At birth, mouse sciatic nerves mature in 2 subsequent phases: 1/ big caliber axons get sorted into a 1 to 1 relationship with Schwann cells, 2/ Schwann cells build a myelin sheath around sorted axons. In mice where both HDAC1 & HDAC2 have been specifically knocked out in Schwann cells, both phases are impaired. HDACs are chromatin remodeling enzymes, they can thus alter gene expression directly. We want to identify which genes controlled by HDAC1 and HDAC2 in Schwann cells are necessary for the maturation of sciatic nerves. Because HDAC1 and HDAC2 can compensate for each other loss to some extend, we will first analyze changes of gene expression in HDAC1/HDAC2 double KO animals. We expect to gain critical insights into the molecular mechanisms controlling Schwann cell differentiation and myelination. This knowledge is of key importance for the success of regenerative medicine in peripheral neuropathies, nerve tumors, and transplantation paradigms in non-regenerative CNS lesions and in large PNS injuries. 3 double knockout mutants for HDAC1 and HDAC2 and 3 control littermates were analyzed. Tissues analyzed: sciatic nerves of 2 day-old mouse pups
