KDM4 inhibition targets breast cancer stem cells

ABSTRACT: Cancer progression is associated with alterations of epigenetic regulators such as histone-lysine demethylases 4 (KDM4)2-5. During breast cancer therapy, classical treatments fail to address resistant cancer stem cell populations6-10. Here, we identified a novel KDM4 inhibitor (KDM4(i)) with unique preclinical characteristics. KDM4(i) is a highly potent pan KDM4 inhibitor that specifically blocks the demethylase activity of KDM4A, B, C, and D but not that of the other members of the KDM family. We validated the KDM4(i) anti-tumoral properties under conditions recapitulating patient tumors. Therefore, we established a method to isolate and grow triple-negative breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs) from individual patient tumors after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Limiting dilution orthotopic xenografts of these BCSCs faithfully regenerate original patient tumor histology and gene expression. KDM4(i) blocks proliferation, sphere formation and xenograft tumor growth of BCSCs. Importantly, KDM4(i) abrogates expression of EGFR, a driver of therapy-resistant triple-negative breast tumor cells11, via inhibition of the KDM4A demethylase activity. Taken together, we present a unique BCSC culture system as a basis for therapeutic compound identification and demonstrate that KDM4 inhibition is a new therapeutic strategy for the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer.

Breast cancer stem cell-derived tumors escape from γδ T cell immunosurveillance in vivo by modulating γδ T cell ligands

Project description:Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) lacks targeted therapy options. TNBC is enriched in breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs), which play a key role in metastasis, chemoresistance, relapse and mortality. γδ T cells hold great potential in immunotherapy against cancer, and might be an alternative to target TNBC. γδ T cells are commonly observed to infiltrate solid tumors and have an extensive repertoire of tumor sensing, recognizing stress-induced molecules and phosphoantigens (pAgs) on transformed cells. We show that patient derived triple negative BCSCs are efficiently recognized and killed by ex vivo expanded γδ T cells from healthy donors. Orthotopically xenografted BCSCs, however, were refractory to γδ T cell immunotherapy. Mechanistically, we unraveled concerted differentiation and immune escape: xenografted BCSCs lost stemness, expression of γδ T cell ligands, adhesion molecules and pAgs, thereby evading immune recognition by γδ T cells. Indeed, neither pro-migratory engineered γδ T cells, nor anti-PD 1 checkpoint blockade significantly prolonged overall survival of tumor-bearing mice. BCSC immune escape was independent of the immune pressure exerted by the γδ T cells, and could be pharmacologically reverted by Zoledronate or IFN-α treatment. These results pave the way for novel combinatorial immunotherapies for TNBC.

Histone lysine demethylase 4 family proteins maintain the transcriptional program and adrenergic cellular state of MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma [RNA-seq]

Project description:Neuroblastoma with MYCN amplification (MNA) is a high-risk disease that requires long-term intensive multimodal therapies. Less than 50% survival rate of high-risk patients has prompted active and extensive studies to seek more effective therapies against MNA neuroblastomas but with few successes. We show that MYCN transdifferentiates the neuroblastoma cells from mesenchymal state to adrenergic state accompanied with induction of histone lysine demethylase 4 family members (KDM4A-C), all of which act in concert to control the expression of MYCN and adrenergic core regulatory transcription factors (CRC TF). Pharmacologic inhibition of KDM4 blocks expression of MYCN and adrenergic CRC transcriptome with genome-wide induction of transcriptionally repressive H3K9me3, resulting in potent anticancer activity against MNA neuroblastomas by inducing differentiation, apoptosis and type I interferon response. KDM4 inhibition in combination with chemotherapy leads to complete tumor response of MNA xenografts, without overt toxicity in animals. Thus, KDM4 blockade may be a transformative strategy to target the dependency of adrenergic CRC TFs in MNA neuroblastomas.

mRNA differencial expression data between scrambled siRNA-treated mice and HN1L siRNA-treated mice tumor samples

Project description:(HN1L) is a targetable breast cancer stem cell (BCSC) gene that is altered in 25% of whole breast cancer and significantly correlated with shorter overall or relapse-free survival in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients. HN1L silencing reduced the population of BCSCs, inhibited tumor initiation, re-sensitized chemo-resistant tumors to docetaxel, and hindered cancer progression in multiple TNBC cell line derived xenografts. We used microarray to compare mRNA expression profiles from PDX BCM2665 xenograft tumors with or without HN1L knockdown, to identify role of HN1L in regulating cancer stem cells.

Efficient Elimination of Acute Myeloid Leukaemia Cells through Inhibition of KDM4A

Project description:We previously identified an essential role for the H3K9me3 histone demethylase, KDM4A, in maintaining AML cell survival, with genetic depletion by shRNA of KDM4A inducing leukaemic cell death with little effect on normal haematopoiesis. We hypothesised KDM4A inhibition may represent a novel and effective strategy to treat AML. To address this, we provided proof-of-principle for the use of KDM4 inhibitors (KDM4Ai) and fully characterised their functional potential in AML cells and identified the epigenetic mechanisms underpinning the essential role of KDM4A activity in THP-1 cells using both ChIP-seq and RNA-seq, delineating and functionally validating the epigenomic network regulated by KDM4A, showing that selective loss of KDM4A is sufficient to induce apoptosis in a broad spectrum of human AML cells. This detrimental phenotype results from a global accumulation of H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 at KDM4A targeted genomic loci thereby causing down-regulation of a KDM4A-PAF1 controlled transcriptional program essential for leukemogenesis, distinct from that of KDM4C.
