Project description:Mutant KRAS (mut-KRAS) is present in 30% of all human cancers and plays a critical role in cancer cell growth and resistance to therapy. There is evidence from colon cancer that mut-KRAS is a poor prognostic factor and negative predictor of patient response to molecularly targeted therapy. However, evidence for such a relationship in non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is conflicting. KRAS mutations are primarily found at codons 12 and 13, where different base changes lead to alternate amino acid substitutions that lock the protein in an active state. The patterns of mut-KRas amino acid substitutions in colon cancer and NSCLC are quite different, with aspartate (D) predominating in colon cancer (50%) and cysteine (C) in NSCLC (47%). Through an analysis of a recently completed biopsy biomarker-driven, molecularly targeted multi-arm trial of 215 evaluable patients with refractory NSCLC we show that mut-KRas-G12C/V but not total mut-KRAS predicts progression free survival for the overall group, and for the sorafenib and vandetanib treatment arms. Transcriptome microarray data shows differential expression of cell cycle genes between mut-KRas-G12C/V and G12D patient tumors. A panel of NSCLC cell lines with known mut-KRas amino acid substitutions was used to identify pathways activated by the different mut-KRas, showing that mut-KRas-G12D activates both PI-3-K and MEK signaling, while mut-KRas G12C does not, and alternatively activates RAL signaling. This finding was confirmed using immortalized human bronchial epithelial cells stably transfected with wt-KRAS and different forms of mut-KRAS. Molecular modeling studies show that the different conformation imposed by mut-KRas-G12C could lead to altered association with downstream signaling transducers compared to wild type and mut-KRas-G12D. The significance of the findings for developing mut-KRAS therapies is profound, since it suggests that not all mut-KRas amino acid substitutions signal to effectors in a similar way, and may require different therapeutic interventions.

Gene expression profiles were measured in 22 core biopsies from patients with refractory non-small cell lung cancer included in the Biomarker-integrated Approaches of Targeted Therapy for Lung Cancer Elimination (BATTLE). All tumors were KRAS mutants, but with different patterns of amino acid substitutions. Supervised analysis of transcriptome profiling was performed to compare cysteine or valine KRAS mutants with other KRAS mutants.

Project description:Radiotherapy is standard of care for inoperable non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) but adenocarcinoma NSCLC respond more poorly than squamous cell NSCLC. Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) activity is induced by radiation and plays a recently recognized role in the DNA damage response. Here we show in murine lung tumor model that radiation activates TGFβ acutely and persistently and that TGFβ neutralizing antibody, 1D11, systemic treatment increased tumor control following either fractionated or single high dose radiation regimes. TGFβ dependent genes in the irradiated tumor indicated crosstalk between innate and adaptive immunity but therapeutic benefit of 1D11 in irradiated tumors in immunocompromised mice suggested that innate immune cells are more influential than the adaptive immune response. Irradiated tumors in which TGFβ was blocked were highly hypoxic, exhibit pronounced microvascular damage and promoted neither cancer-associated fibroblasts nor recruit bone marrow derived cells (BMDC). Tumor educated immature BMDC were significant sources of TGFβ and inhibiting BMDC recruitment achieved tumor growth control in response to RT comparable to TGFβ inhibition. Thus, radiation-induced TGFβ both compromises tumor control by RT and promotes reestablishment of the tumor microenvironment. Concordant with the critical role of TGFβ activity in RT, radiation resistant NSCLC adenocarcinomas exhibit higher TGFβ activity compared to squamous cell NSCLC, which suggests a rationale for using TGFβ inhibition to augment radiotherapy. Lewis lung cancer (LLC) model were established in 6 to 8 week-old C57BL/6 female mice by subcutaneous injection. When tumors were 60-80 mm3, Mice were randomized to achieve comparable mean tumor size for each treatment group as indicated below. Tumor growth were monitored and tumors were collected and characterized by gene expression profiling and immunostaining.

Project description:Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations are leading oncogenic drivers in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Many third-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been developed to target EGFR T790M and activating mutations. Osimertinib (AZD9291) was the first approved drug and is now the standard-of-care therapy for untreated EGFR-mutated NSCLC. Our team previously identified ASK120067, for which we have submitted a new drug application (NDA) in China. Although third-generation EGFR TKIs exhibit favorable antitumor effects in NSCLC treatment, acquired resistance with largely unexplored mechanisms still limits their long-term efficacy. In this study, we aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying resistance to EGFR TKIs and identify new therapeutic strategies for the treatment of NSCLC. Methods: Elevated expression of BCAT1 in EGFR TKI-resistant lung cancer cells was identified using stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC)-based proteomics analysis and verified with Western blotting and RT‒qPCR.

Project description:Introduction: Overcoming of acquired resistance to EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) is an intractable obstacle for many clinical oncologists. The mechanisms of resistance to EGFR-TKIs are very complex. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) may play an important role in cancer development and metastasis. However, the biological process between lncRNAs and drug resistance to EGFR mutated lung cancer largely unknown. Methods: Osimertinib and afatinib-resistant EGFR-mutated lung cancer cells were established using by a stepwise method. Microarray analysis of non-coding and coding RNAs was performed using parental and resistant EGFR-mutant NSCLC cells. Results: Microarray analysis was evaluated by bioinformatics analysis through medical-industrial collaboration. CRNDE and DGCR5 lncRNAs were highly expressed in EGFR-TKIs-resistant cells. CRNDE binds to eIF4A3 protein, down-regulates eIF4A3 and MUC1 expression, and down-regulates p-EGFR expression. CRNDE inhibition activated the eIF4A3/MUC1/EGFR signaling pathway and apoptotic activity and restored sensitivity to EGFR-TKIs. Conclusions: We identified lncRNA CRNDE associated with resistance to EGFR-TKIs in EGFR-mutant NSCLC cells. CRNDE may be a novel therapeutic target for EGFR mutant NSCLC patients.

Project description:Non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLCs) harboring activating EGFR mutants show dramatic responses to EGFR TKIs, such as erlotinib and geffitinib. However, nearly all patients show relapse within 1 year after initial treatment. We used microarrays to detail global gene expression changes in EGFR mutant cells vs. WT cells responding to erlotinib. 4 EGFR mutant and 4 WT NSCLC cells were treated with or without erlotinib for 24 hr, followed by RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:The transcription factor RUNX1 is frequently mutated in myelodysplastic syndrome and leukemia. RUNX1 mutations can be early events, creating pre-leukemic stem cells that expand in the bone marrow. Here we show that, counter-intuitively, Runx1 deficient hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) have a slow growth, low biosynthetic, small cell phenotype and markedly reduced ribosome biogenesis (Ribi). The reduced Ribi involves decreased levels of rRNA and many mRNAs encoding ribosome proteins. Runx1 appears to directly regulate Ribi; Runx1 is enriched on the promoters of genes encoding ribosome proteins, and binds the ribosomal DNA repeats. Runx1 deficient HSPCs have lower p53 levels, reduced apoptosis, an attenuated unfolded protein response, and accordingly are resistant to genotoxic and endoplasmic reticulum stress. The low biosynthetic activity and corresponding stress resistance provides a selective advantage to Runx1 deficient HSPCs, allowing them to expand in the bone marrow and outcompete normal HSPCs. Comparison of the phenotypic and molecular properties of normal (Runx1f/f, or WT) versus Runx1 deficient (Mut) hematopoietic stem cells.
