Project description:Epithelioid Sarcoma (ES) is a rare neoplasm uniquely comprised of cells exhibiting both mesenchymal and epithelial features. Having propensity for local and distant recurrence, it can pose a diagnostic dilemma secondary to pathologic complexity. Patients have dismal prognosis due to lack of effective therapy. HDAC inhibitors exhibit marked anti-tumor effects in various malignancies. Our studies demonstrate that pan-HDAC inhibitors constitute potentially novel therapeutics versus ES. Human ES cells (VAESBJ, HS-ES, Epi544) were studied in vitro to evaluate the effects of HDACi. Gene array analysis was used to identify the impact of HDACi on ES gene expression in three cell lines.

Project description:Transcriptional dysregulation has emerged as a core pathologic feature of Huntington's disease (HD), one of several triplet-repeat disorders characterized by movement deficits and cognitive dysfunction. Although the mechanisms contributing to the gene expression deficits remain unknown, therapeutic strategies have aimed to improve transcriptional output via modulation of chromatin structure. Recent studies have demonstrated therapeutic effects of commercially available histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors in several HD models; however, the therapeutic value of these compounds is limited by their toxic effects. Here, beneficial effects of a novel pimelic diphenylamide HDAC inhibitor, HDACi 4b, in an HD mouse model are reported. Chronic oral administration of HDACi 4b, beginning after the onset of motor deficits, significantly improved motor performance, overall appearance, and body weight of symptomatic R6/2(300Q) transgenic mice. These effects were associated with significant attenuation of gross brain-size decline and striatal atrophy. Microarray studies revealed that HDACi 4b treatment ameliorated, in part, alterations in gene expression caused by the presence of mutant huntingtin protein in the striatum, cortex, and cerebellum of R6/2(300Q) transgenic mice. For selected genes, HDACi 4b treatment reversed histone H3 hypoacetylation observed in the presence of mutant huntingtin, in association with correction of mRNA expression levels. These findings suggest that HDACi 4b, and possibly related HDAC inhibitors, may offer clinical benefit for HD patients and provide a novel set of potential biomarkers for clinical assessment.

Project description:We investigated the ability of HDAC inhibitors (HDACi) to target CML stem cells. Treatment with HDACi combined with IM effectively induced apoptosis in quiescent CML progenitors resistant to elimination by IM alone, and eliminated CML stem cells capable of engrafting immunodeficient mice. In vivo administration of HDACi with IM markedly diminished LSC in a transgenic mouse model of CML. The interaction of IM and HDACi inhibited genes regulating hematopoietic stem cell maintenance and survival. HDACi treatment represents a novel and effective strategy to target LSC in CML patients receiving tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

Project description:Background: Ewing sarcoma (EwS) are characterized by oncogenic chimeric EWS-ETS proteins. EZH2 is upregulated via predominant EWS-FLI1 in EwS. RNAi of EZH2 revealed an EZH2-maintained, undifferentiated, stemness phenotype. Herein, microarray analysis demonstrated that treatment with HDAC inhibitors (HDACi) entinostat or TSA resulted in the induction of a similar pattern of differentiation genes as observed after EZH2 RNAi. This indicates that EZH2-containing PRC2 complexes may serve as a building block of class I HDAC activity in EwS. Methods: The role of class I HDACs was determined using different inhibitors including TSA, romidepsin (FK228), entinostat (MS-275) and PCI-34051 as well as CRISPR/Cas9 class I HDAC knock outs and HDAC RNAi. To analyze resulting changes microarray and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA), qRT-PCR, western blotting, Co-IP, proliferation, apoptosis, differentiation, invasion assays and xenograft-mouse models were used. Results: Class I HDACs are constitutively expressed in EwS. They seem regulated via EWS-FLI1. Interestingly, patients with high levels of individual class I HDAC expression show decreased overall survival. CRISPR/Cas9 class I HDAC knock out of individual HDACs such as HDAC1 and HDAC2 inhibited growth, invasiveness, and blocked local tumor growth in xenograft mice. Microarray and GSEA analysis demonstrated that treatment with individual HDAC inhibitors (HDACi) blocked an EWS-FLI1 specific expression profile, while entinostat in addition suppressed metastasis relevant genes. EwS cells demonstrated increased susceptibility to treatment with first line chemotherapeutics including doxorubicin in the presence of HDACi. Furthermore, HDACi treatment mimicked RNAi of EZH2 in EwS. Treated cells showed diminished growth capacity, but an increased endothelial as well as neuronal differentiation ability. HDACi synergizes with EED inhibitor (EEDi) in vitro and together inhibited tumor growth in xenograft mice. Co-IP experiments identified HDAC class I family members as part of a regulatory complex together with PRC2. Conclusion: Class I HDAC proteins seem to be important mediators of the pathognomonic EWS-ETS-mediated transcription program in EwS and in combination therapy, co-treatment with HDACi are interesting new treatment opportunities for this malignant disease.

Project description:Purpose: Gastric cancer remains one of the deadliest neoplasms worldwide, with a high need for new therapeutic options. Efficacies of targeted therapies are often limited owing to the inter- and intratumoral heterogeneity of gastric cancer. Thus, drugs with broader mechanisms of action rather than relying on the inhibition of a single specific oncogene are needed. Preclinical studies have identified histone deacetylases (HDAC) and their respective isoforms as potential therapeutic targets in gastric cancer. However, clinical efficacies are moderate and the mechanism(s) of action of HDAC inhibitors (HDACi) are only partially understood. Methods: In a panel of gastric cancer cell lines with different molecular characteristics, tumor cell inhibitory effects of different HDACi were studied. Lipid peroxidation levels were measured using flow cytometry. Proteome analysis was performed for the in-depth characterization of molecular alterations upon HDAC inhibition. HDACi effects on important ferroptosis genes were validated on the mRNA (RT-qPCR) and protein level (Western Blot). Results: Upon HDACi treatment, lipid peroxidation levels were found increased in all tested cell lines. Class-I HDACi (VK1, entinostat) showed the same toxicity profile as the pan-HDACi vorinostat. Proteome analysis revealed significant and concordant alterations in the expression of proteins related to ferroptosis induction. Key enzymes like ACSL4, POR or SLC7A11 showed distinct alterations in their expression patterns, providing an explanation for the increased lipid peroxidation. Alterations of POR and SLC7A11 levels upon treatment were also confirmed in primary human gastric cancer tissue cultures as relevant ex vivo model. Conclusion: We identify the induction of ferroptosis as a new mechanism of action of class-I HDACi in gastric cancer. Notably, these findings were independent of the genetic background of the cell lines, thus introducing HDAC inhibition as a more general therapeutic principle besides other, less broadly usable targeted drugs.

Project description:Mocetinostat (MGCD) which is a kind of histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) promotes human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) differentiation towards neural progenitor cells (NPCs). Application of HDAC inhibitors (HDACi) increased the expression of neuroectodermal markers once neural differentiation was initiated, thereby leading to more NPC generation. We used microarrays to detail the global gene expression during NPC differentiaton upon MGCD treatment and identified the transcript changes effected by MGCD during this process.

We used microarrays to detail the global gene expression during NPC differentiaton upon MGCD treatment and identified the transcript changes effected by MGCD during this process. Undifferentiated H9 hESCs (D0), as well as H9 cells with or without MGCD treatment on day 3 (D3C and D3M) and on day 7(D7C and D7M) of NPC generation were collected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are critical in the control of gene expression and dysregulation of their activity has been implicated in a broad range of diseases including cancer, cardiovascular and neurological diseases. HDAC inhibitors (HDACi) employing different zinc chelating functionalities such as hydroxamic acids and benzamides have shown promising results in cancer therapy. While it has also been suggested that HDACi with increased isozyme-selectivity and potency may broaden their clinical utility and minimize side effects, the translation of this idea to the clinic remains to be investigated. Moreover, a detailed understanding of how HDACi with different pharmacological properties affect biological functions in vitro and in vivo is still missing. Here we show that a panel of benzamide-containing HDACi are slow tight-binding inhibitors with long residence times unlike the hydroxamate-containing HDACi SAHA and TSA. Characterization of changes in H2BK5 and H4K14 acetylation following HDACi treatment in the neuroblastoma cell line SH-SY5Y revealed that the timing and magnitude of histoneacetylation mirrored both the association and dissociation kinetic rates of the inhibitors. In contrast, cell viability and microarray gene expression analysis indicated that cell death induction and changes in transcriptional regulation do not correlate with the dissociation kinetic rates of the HDACi. Therefore, our study suggests that the evaluation of different classes of HDACi compounds using recombinant HDACs or histone acetylation is insufficient to predict their functional impact on cell activity.
