Mutations in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) kinase domain occur in 10-30% of lung adenocarcinoma and are associated with tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) sensitivity. We sought to identify the immediate direct and indirect phosphorylation targets of mutant EGFRs in lung adenocarcinoma.

Project description:Mutations in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) kinase domain occur in 10-30% of lung adenocarcinoma. Leucine to arginine substitution at amino acid position 858 (L858R) accounts for around 50% of EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) sensitizing mutations. A second site mutation in the gatekeeper residue (T790M) accounts for around 60% of acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs. We sought to identify the immediate direct and indirect targets of these mutant EGFRs in lung adenocarcinoma and their modulation by erlotinib, the first generation, and most widely used EGFR-directed TKI. We undertook stable isotope labeling of amino acids in cell culture (SILAC), phosphopeptide enrichment, and quantitative mass spectrometry to identify dynamic changes of phosphorylation downstream of mutant EGFRs in lung adenocarcinoma cells harboring L858R or L858R/T790M mutations and their modulation by erlotinib inhibition. Phosphorylation at the majority of phosphosites identified exhibited no change upon either EGF stimulation or erlotinib inhibition. Only around 7% of phosphosites identified and quantified showed increased phosphorylation upon EGF stimulation in either cell line. However, while phosphorylation at 61% of these phosphosites decreased upon erlotinib inhibition in the TKI sensitive H3255 cells, only 24% of such sites exhibited decreased phosphorylation upon erlotinib inhibition in the TKI resistant H1975 cells. Top canonical pathways that were inhibited upon erlotinib treatment in sensitive cells, but not the resistant cells include EGFR, Insulin receptor, HGF, MAPK, mTOR, p70S6K and JAK/STAT signaling. We identified phosphosites in proteins of the autophagy network, such as ULK1 (S623) that is constitutive phosphorylated in these lung adenocarcinoma cells, but phosphorylation is inhibited upon erlotinib treatment in sensitive cells, but not resistant cells. Finally, kinase-substrate prediction analysis from our data indicated that substrates of basophilic kinase families, AGC, CAMK and STE were significantly enriched and those of proline directed kinase families, CMGC and CK were significantly depleted among substrates that exhibit increased phosphorylation upon EGF stimulation and reduced phosphorylation upon TKI inhibition. This is the first study to date to examine global phosphorylation changes upon erlotinib treatment of lung adenocarcinoma cells and results from this study provide new insights into signaling downstream of mutant EGFRs in lung adenocarcinoma.

Mathematical analysis of gefitinib resistance of lung adenocarcinoma caused by MET amplification
Abstract:
Gefitinib, one of the tyrosine kinase inhibitors of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), is effective for treating lung adenocarcinoma harboring EGFR mutation; but later, most cases acquire a resistance to gefitinib. One of the mechanisms conferring gefitinib resistance to lung adenocarcinoma is the amplification of the MET gene, which is observed in 5–22% of gefitinib-resistant tumors. A previous study suggested that MET amplification could cause gefitinib resistance by driving ErbB3-dependent activation of the PI3K pathway. In this study, we built a mathematical model of gefitinib resistance caused by MET amplification using lung adenocarcinoma HCC827-GR (gefitinib resistant) cells. The molecular reactions involved in gefitinib resistance consisted of dimerization and phosphorylation of three molecules, EGFR, ErbB3, and MET were described by a series of ordinary differential equations. To perform a computer simulation, we quantified each molecule on the cell surface using flow cytometry and estimated unknown parameters by dimensional analysis. Our simulation showed that the number of active ErbB3 molecules is around a hundred-fold smaller than that of active MET molecules. Limited contribution of ErbB3 in gefitinib resistance by MET amplification is also demonstrated using HCC827-GR cells in culture experiments. Our mathematical model provides a quantitative understanding of the molecular reactions underlying drug resistance.

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus is the leading cause of infections worldwide and infection results in a variety of diseases. As of no surprise, phosphorylation is a major game player in signaling cascades and has been shown to be involved in S. aureus virulence. Albeit long neglected, eukaryotic-like serine/threonine kinases have been implicated in these complex signaling cascades. Due to the sub-stoichiometric nature of protein phosphorylation and a lack of suitable analysis tools, the knowledge of these cascades is however, to date, still limited. Here, were apply an optimized protocol for efficient phosphopeptide enrichment via Fe3+-IMAC followed by LC-MS/MS to get a better understanding of the impact of protein phosphorylation on the complex signaling networks involved in pathogenicity. By profiling a serine/threonine kinase and phosphatase mutant from a methicillin-resistant S. aureus mutant library, we generated the most comprehensive phosphoproteome dataset of S. aureus to date, aiding a better understanding of signaling in bacteria.

Project description:Lung cancer continues to be the leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide. The treatment of lung cancer patients harboring mutant EGFR with orally administered EGFR TKIs has been a paradigm shift. Osimertinib and rociletinib are two 3rd generation irreversible EGFR TKIs targeting the EGFR T790M mutation. Osimertinib is the current standard care for patients with EGFR mutations due to increased efficacy, lower side effects, and enhanced brain penetrance. Unfortunately, all patients develop resistance to it. Genomic approaches have primarily been used to interrogate resistance mechanisms. Here, we have characterized the proteome and phosphoproteome of a series of isogenic EGFR mutant lung adenocarcinoma cell lines that are either sensitive or resistant to these drugs. To our knowledge, this is the most comprehensive proteomic dataset resource to date to investigate 3rd generation EGFR TKI resistance in lung adenocarcinoma. We have interrogated this unbiased global quantitative proteomic and phosphoproteomic dataset to uncover alterations in signaling pathways, and to reveal a proteomic signature of EMT and kinases / phosphatases with altered protein expression and phosphorylation in the TKI resistant cells. We validated the significant role of SHP2 in the activation of RAS/MAPK and PI3K/AKT signaling pathways. Furthermore, we performed anticorrelation analyses of this phosphoproteomic dataset with the published drug-induced P100 phosphoproteomic datasets from the Library of Integrated Network-Based Cellular Signatures (LINCS) program to predict drugs with the potential to overcome EGFR TKI resistance. We identified that dactolisib, a PI3K/mTOR inhibitor, in combination with osimertinib, may overcome osimertinib resistance both in vitro and in vivo. Introduction Lung cancer continues to be the leading cause of cancer mortality in the world (1). Many lung adenocarcinoma patients with activating epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations initially respond dramaticlly to the first- or second-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). However, they eventually develop resistance. The most common mechanism of acquired resistance is the EGFR T790M gatekeeper site residue mutation (2). Osimertinib, a third generation irreversible EGFR TKI has been approved by the FDA to treat patients harboring the EGFR T790M mutation who have developed resistance to first- and second- generation EGFR TKIs (3). Recently, osimertinib was also approved for the front-line treatment of patients harboring EGFR mutations (4). Rociletinib is another irreversible inhibitor targeting the EGFR T790M mutation, which has minimal activity against wild-type EGFR. Both drugs have therapeutic benefits and have demonstrated activity in tumors with T790M-mediated resistance to other EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (5, 6). Further development of rociletinib was ceased in 2016 due to less than expected efficacy, poor brain penetration leading to tumor progression in brain tissues and off-target effects on IGFR activation leading to hyperglycemia (7, 8). Although 3rd-generation TKIs provide clinical benefit to most patients with EGFR mutations, some patients, demonstrating primary resistance, still do not respond to these inhibitors. Complete responses are rare, and all patients eventually develop resistance, suggesting primary and acquired resistance mechanisms decrease the efficacy of the drugs (9, 10). Genomic approaches have been used primarily to interrogate osimertinib resistance mechanisms (9, 11-15). Several mechanisms of osimertinib resistance have been identified (16), including novel second site EGFR mutations, activated bypass pathways such as MET amplification, HER2 amplification, RAS mutations, BRAF mutations, PIK3CA mutations, and novel fusion events (17). However, the resistance mechanism is complex and still not fully understood. Previously, we have used SILAC-based quantitative phosphoproteomics to identify the global dynamic modification which occur upon treatment of TKI-sensitive and -resistant lung adenocarcinoma cells with the 1st and 2nd generation EGFR TKIs, erlotinib and afatinib. Utilizing this strategy, we identified the targets of mutant EGFR signaling pathways responsible for TKI resistance, and possible off-target effects of the drugs (18, 19). In this study, we employed SILAC-based quantitative mass spectrometry to characterize alterations in the proteome and phosphoproteome which occur upon acquired resistance and sought to identify novel mechanisms of resistance to the third generation EGFR TKIs, osimertinib and rociletinib. To our knowledge, this is the most comprehensive 3rd generation EGFR TKI resistant proteome and phosphoproteome analysis resource available to date.

Project description:Targeting the epigenome to modulate gene expression programs driving cancer development has emerged as an exciting avenue for therapeutic intervention. Pharmacological inhibition of the bromodomain and extraterminal (BET) family of chromatin adapter proteins has proven effective in this regard, suppressing growth of diverse cancer types mainly through downregulation of the c-MYC oncogene and its downstream transcriptional program. While initially effective, resistance to BET inhibitors (BETi) typically occurs through mechanisms that reactivate MYC expression. We have previously shown that lung adenocarcinoma (LAC) is inhibited by JQ1 through suppression of FOSL1, suggesting that the epigenetic landscape of tumor cells from different origins and differentiation states influences BETi response. Here, we assessed how these differences affect mechanisms of BETi resistance through the establishment of isogenic pairs of JQ1 sensitive and resistant LAC cell lines. We found that resistance to JQ1 in LAC occurs independent of FOSL1 while MYC levels remain unchanged between resistant cells and their JQ1 treated parental counterparts. Furthermore, while epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is observed upon resistance, TGF- induced EMT did not confer resistance in JQ1 sensitive LAC lines, suggesting this is a consequence, rather than a driver of BETi resistance in our model systems. Importantly, siRNA knockdown demonstrated that JQ1 resistant cell lines are still dependent on BRD4 expression and we found that phosphorylation of BRD4 is elevated in resistant LACs, identifying casein kinase 2 (CK2) as a candidate protein mediating this effect. Inhibition of CK2, as well as downstream transcriptional targets of phosphorylated BRD4 - including AXL and activators of the PI3K pathway - synergize with JQ1 to inhibit BETi resistant LAC. Overall, this demonstrates that the mechanism of resistance to BETi varies depending on cancer type, with LAC cells developing JQ1 resistance independent of MYC re-activation, and identifying CK2 phosphorylation of BRD4 as a potential target to overcome resistance in this cancer.

Project description:Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death. Mutations in the kinase domain of EGFR, a predominant driver oncogene, such as L858R missense mutation and a series of deletions spanning the conserved sequence 747LREA750, are associated with sensitivity to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). However, patients receiving EGFR-TKIs (gefitinib and erlotinib) develop drug-resistance due to a secondary mutation at the gatekeeper residue (T790M) in about 50-60% of cases, urging for new drug development. Afatinib, a FDA approved second-generation EGFR-TKI that was developed to circumvent T790M-mediated resistance, has not been very effective in clinical trials. In this study, we performed a global phosphoproteomic screen to identify targets that undergo mutant EGFR-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation and their modulation by erlotinib or afatinib. We undertook stable isotope labeling of amino acids in cell culture (SILAC), phosphopeptide enrichment, and quantitative mass spectrometry to identify dynamic changes of phosphorylation downstream of mutant EGFRs in lung adenocarcinoma cells harboring L858R or L858R/T790M mutations and their modulation by erlotinib and afatinib inhibition. We identified and quantified 397, 429, 223, and 594 phosphotyrosine sites in H3255, 11-18,PC9, and H1975 cell lines that were grown in presence of FBS and in presence/absence of TKIs, respectively. These account for a total of 907 unique phospho-tyrosine sites in 496 proteins. Among them, 187 phosphotyrosine sites were found to be in 89 kinases, which may serve as intermediary regulatory kinases in EGFR signalling pathway. Further analysis indicated that in TKI-sensitive H3255 and 11-18 cells, there were 58/111 and 65/101 tyrosine sites that were hypophosphorylated in presence of erlotinib and afatinib, respectively. However, in TKI-resistant H1975 cells, 189 and 264 tyrosine sites were hypophosphorylated in presence of erlotinib and afatinib respectively, indicating that the afatinib-specific additional sites could be validated for identifying potentially new drug targets to counter TKI-resistance. Ingenuity pathway analysis (IPA) of proteins with altered phosphorylation sites demonstrated that several canonical pathways including ephrin receptor signalling and integrin signalling pathways were enriched, which may play important roles in cell growth and proliferation. However, upon EGF stimulation of serum starved H3255 cells in presence or absence of TKIs, 99 tyrosine sites that were hyperphosphorylated upon EGF stimulation were inhibited in presence of erlotinib or afatinib. But in H1975 cells treated with erlotinib, 48 of the above sites were either unchanged or were hyperphosphorylated. These sites include EGFR (Y1197/869/998), JAK1 (Y1034), FRK (Y497), GAB1 (Y657/689), MAPK1 (Y187), MAPK3 (Y204), MET (Y1252/1253). Furthermore, a total of 112 sites that were observed to be hypophosphorylated upon EGF stimulation in H1975 cells, were found to be hyperphosphorylated upon erlotinib inhibition. This could possibly be due to the activation of downstream phosphatases with EGF stimulation. We are now performing in-depth bioinformatic analysis and validation experiments using functional genomics to understand the role of targets of mutant EGFR signalling in lung cancer.

Project description:Although Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors (PARPi) have been approved in multiple diseases, including BRCA1/2 mutant breast cancer, responses are usually transient thus requiring the development of combination therapies that can capitalize on PARPi activity. We thus explored mechanisms underlying sensitivity and resistance to PARPi using two intrinsically sensitive and resistant syngeneic murine breast cancer models. Our data indicate that the PARPi sensitive tumor model has a high ratio of M1 anti-tumor/M2 pro-tumor macrophages with the M1/M2 ratio being increased by PARPi. In contrast the PARPi resistant tumor model had very low levels of M1 macrophages and thus a low M1/M2 ratio that was not altered by PARPi. Our data indicate that co-transplantation of the PARPi sensitive and the PARPi resistant tumor results in accumulation of M2 macrophages in the sensitive tumor, rendering the sensitive tumor PARPi resistant. C5aR1 and RPS19/C5aR1 signaling is selectively elevated in the M2 macrophages that are associated with PARPi resistance. Strikingly C5aR1 targeting decreased M2 macrophages, while sparing M1 macrophages rendering PARPi resistant tumors sensitive to PARPi. Consistent with the murine data, human breast cancers with high C5aR1 levels have a poor response to immune checkpoint blockade. Thus targeting C5aR1 may represent a therapeutic approach to selectively deplete M2 macropahges and engender sensitivity to PARPi and potentially other therapeutic approaches.

Project description:The present hypothesis is that anti-EGFR agents are active in tumors with low-level RAS mutation when the majority of tumor cells is still sensitive. While response rate may be high and may reflect sensitivity to anti-EGFR agents, PFS is anticipated to be shorter than in RAS wild-type patients due to the faster development of resistance when sensitive cells are eradicated and when the RAS-mutant anti-EGFR resistant clones become predominant.
The characteristics of low-level RAS mutant tumors would be:
* Objective response rate (ORR) high (reflecting the sensitive clone)
* Progression-free survival (PFS) short (reflecting the more rapid outgrowth of RAS mutant clones)
