Project description:The standard of care for patients with advanced form of prostate cancer, castration-resistant, now includes enzalutamide, a second generation antiandrogen. However, most of the treated patients will develop resistance to enzalutamide based therapy in around a year, succumbing to lethal disease. Investigating the transcriptome of enzalutamide-resistant prostate cancer cell lines, we identified CXCR7 as one of the most upregulated genes suggesting its role in advanced prostate cancer. CXCR7, known as an atypical G-coupled receptor, is engaged in many physiological and pathological processes. Here we show that in prostate cancer CXCR7 is tightly regulated by androgen receptor (AR), which directly binds to CXCR7 gene promoter and enhancer and represses its transcription. In turn, CXCR7 in prostate cancer reduces enzalutamide toxicity and promotes cell survival and invasiveness. We identified that CXCR7 forms an integral complex with ARRB2 and activates ERK1/2, eliciting pro-survival MAPK pathway. Enzalutamide treatment combined with MAPKK specific inhibitor, trametinib, reversed enzalutamide resistance in prostate cancer in vitro and in vivo. Taken together our findings highlight the critical role of CXCR7 in enzalutamide-resistant prostate cancer and open an avenue for developing novel anti-CXCR7 therapies to improve survival in patients with advanced prostate cancer.

Project description:The first line of therapy for advanced prostate cancer (PCa) is androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) through surgical or chemical castration; however, in the majority of cases, tumors relapse in a hormone refractory or castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) form. Once the PCa has recurred in CRPC form, it progresses to a highly aggressive disease with frequent metastasis and poses an increased risk of morbidity and death This study shows that the loss of PP2Acα methylation in enzalutamide (Enza)-resistant CRPC cells plays a central role in imparting the resistant to the cancer cells by stabilizing the interaction of MED1, BRD4, and AR associated transcriptional complex, thereby amplifying the oncogenic AR transcriptional output through chromatin re-modulatory mechanism. Further, this study demonstrates that targeting the PP2ACα regulatory mechanisms or its downstream epigenetic effectors/mechanisms abolish the enzalutamide-resistance phenotype, thus paving the way for the development of more effective therapeutics to curtail mCRPC. The below given experiments validate the above findings.

Project description:Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death among men in the United States. The androgen receptor (AR) antagonist enzalutamide is a FDA-approved drug for treatment of patients with late-stage prostate cancer and is currently under clinical study for early-stage prostate cancer treatment. After a short positive response period to enzalutamide, tumors will develop drug resistance. In this study, we uncovered that DNA methylation was deregulated in enzalutamide-resistant cells. DNMT activity and DNMT3B expression were upregulated in resistant cell lines. Enzalutamide induced the expression of DNMT3A and DNMT3B in prostate cancer cells with a potential role of p53 and pRB in this process. The overexpression of DNMT3B3, a DNMT3B variant, promoted an enzalutamide-resistant phenotype in C4-2B cell lines. Inhibition of DNA methylation and DNMT3B knockdown induced a re-sensitization to enzalutamide. Decitabine treatment in enzalutamide-resistant cells induced a decrease of the expression of AR-V7 and changes of genes for apoptosis, DNA repair and mRNA splicing. Combination treatment of Decitabine and enzalutamide induced a decrease of tumor weight, Ki-67 and AR-V7 expression and an increase of cleaved-caspase3 levels in 22Rv1 xenografts. The collective results suggest that DNA methylation pathway is deregulated after enzalutamide resistance onset and that targeting DNA methyltransferases restores the sensitivity to enzalutamide in prostate cancer cells.

Project description:<p>We examined genetic resistance to second generation androgen targeting therapies (abiraterone acetate or enzalutamide) by analyzing whole exome sequencing of patient-matched pre-treatment and post-resistance tumors from a series of castrate-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients. Abiraterone resistant tumors harbored alterations in AR and MYC, whereas patients treated with enzalutamide had acquired alterations in the cell cycle pathway. We experimentally confirmed expression of cell-cycle kinases sufficed to drive enzalutamide resistance, which was mitigated through CDK4/6 blockade. These observations link genetic resistance to specific therapeutic agents to inform strategies in genomically selected advanced CRPC.</p>

Project description:Various mechanisms have been reported to be responsible for enzalutamide resistance in prostate cancer. In our previous studies, we have demonstrated that the histone acetyltransferase EP300 is highly expressed in castration therapy-resistant prostate cancer. In the present study, we investigated the role of EP300/CREBBP in enzalutamide-resistant prostate cancer. Enzalutamide resistant and control DuCaP cells generatd previously were treated with histone acetyltransferase (C646) and bromodomain (I-CBP112) inhibitors of EP300/CREBBP. Additionally Enzalutamide resistant cells under 5 µM enzalutamide treatment and control LNCaP cells were analyzed. DuCaP and LNCaP cells were seeded in 6-well-plates at 8 x 10^5 and 6 x 10^5 cells per well. The following day, DuCaP cells were treated with 8 µM enzalutamide, 10 µM C646, 10 µM I-CBP112 or DMSO equivalent for 24 hr.

Project description:In 2012, the US Food and Drug Administration approved enzalutamide (Xtandi) for the treatment of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have previously received docetaxel. In most patients, enzalutamide halts progression of the disease for a short period of time, but patients usually relapse, which is associated with poor prognosis. Identifying the genes and pathways that the cancer cells use to overcome enzalutamide are of interest, because new interventions aimed at preventing relapse after enzalutamide therapy would have therapeutic value to late-stage prostate cancer patients. In this study, we took advantage of RNA interference techniques and an in vitro model of castration-resistant prostate cancer cells to identify genes that drive resistance to enzalutamide.

Project description:Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death among men in the United States. The Androgen receptor (AR) antagonist Enzalutamide is a FDA approved therapy for treatment of late stage prostate cancer patients and is currently under clinical study for early stage prostate cancer treatment. After a short positive response period, patients will develop drug resistance. In this study we used RNA-sequencing and bioinformatics analysis to identify Notch signaling pathway as a deregulated pathway in Enzalutamide-resistant cells. NOTCH2 and c-MYC positively correlated with AR expression in patients' samples mimicking cells with Enzalutamide-resistance. In Enzalutamide-resistant cells, MR49F and C4-2R, we found that cleaved-NOTCH1, HES1 and c-MYC protein expression are significantly elevated indicating an activated NOTCH1 pathway in those cells. In addition, ADAM10 and ADAM17 had a higher expression in Enzalutamide-resistant cells, suggesting a role for S2 cleavage in the increased cleaved NOTCH1 expression. Furthermore, treatment of Enzalutamide-resistant cells with PF-03084014 in combination with Enzalutamide increased cell death, decreased colony formation ability and re-sensitized Enzalutamide-resistant cells to Enzalutamide. Knockdown of NOTCH1 in C4-2R increases Enzalutamide sensitivity by decreasing cell proliferation and increasing cell death. In a 22RV1 xenograft model, PF-03084014 and Enzalutamide induced a decrease in tumor growth through a reduced cell proliferation and increased apoptosis. These results indicate that Notch1 signaling can contribute to Enzalutamide-resistance in Prostate cancer and inhibition of this pathway can re-sensitize resistant cells to Enzalutamide.

Project description:The treatment of advanced prostate cancer has been transformed by novel antiandrogen therapies such as enzalutamide. Using the LnCaP/AR xenograft model, we identified induction of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) expression as a common feature of drug resistant tumors. From a resistant xenograft tumor, we derived a GR expressing resistant subline called LREX' which maintains the resistant phenotype. mRNA expression was used to characterize resistant tissues. LnCaP/AR cells were injected into castrate mice and tumors were established. Mice were then treated with vehicle (Con), 4 days of anti-androgen (ARN-509 10mgkg), or were maintained on anti-androgen (10mg/kg ARN-509 or enzalutamide) until emergence of resistance. Resistant tissues continued to be exposed to anti-androgen through time of harvest. LREX' (LnCaP/AR Resistant to Enzalutamide Xenograft Derived) was derived from an enzalutamide resistant xenograft and was re-injected into castrate mice undergoing continual treatment with enzalutamide. The GR probe on the Illumina array failed to detect GR expression. Therefore, GR expression as determined by qPCR is annotated separately. Of the 10 control tissues, 8 were analyzed twice (technical duplicates annotated as A and B).
