Project description:Pathologic activation of c-Myc plays a central role in pathogenesis of several neoplasias, including multiple myeloma. However, therapeutic targeting of c-Myc has remained elusive due to its lack of a clear ligand-binding domain. We therefore targeted c-Myc transcriptional function by another means, namely the disruption of chromatin-dependent signal transduction. Members of the bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) subfamily of human bromodomain proteins (BRD2, BRD3 and BRD4) associate with acetylated chromatin and facilitate transcriptional activation by increasing the effective molarity of recruited transcriptional activators. Notably, BRD4 marks select M/G1 genes in mitotic chromatin for transcriptional memory and direct post-mitotic transcription, via direct interaction with the positive transcription elongation factor complex b (P-TEFb). Because c-Myc is known to regulate promoter-proximal pause release of Pol II, also through the recruitment of P-TEFb, we evaluated the selective small-molecule inhibitor of BET bromodomains, JQ1, as a chemical probe to interrogate the role of BET bromodomains in Myc-dependent transcription and to explore their role as therapeutic targets in c-Myc-driven neoplasias. Duplicate cultures of MM.1S, OPM1 and KMS11 human myeloma cells were treated with either DMSO alone or with JQ1 (500 nM), for 24 hours. Total RNA was extracted and hybridized to Affymetrix human Gene 1.0 ST microarrays (two arrays per treatment per cell line for a total of 12 arrays).

Project description:The MYC transcription factor is a master regulator of diverse cancer pathways and somatic cell reprogramming. MYC is a compelling therapeutic target that exhibits cancer-specific cellular effects. Pharmacologic inhibition of MYC function has proven challenging due to its numerous modes of forced expression and the difficulty of disrupting protein-DNA interactions. Here we demonstrate the rapid and potent abrogation of MYC gene transcription by representative small molecule bromodomain inhibitors of the BET family of chromatin adaptors. This transcriptional suppression of MYC was observed in the context of the natural, chromosomally translocated, and amplified gene locus. Inhibition of BET bromodomain-promoter interactions and subsequent reduction of MYC transcript and protein levels resulted in G1 arrest and extensive apoptosis in a variety of leukemia and lymphoma cell lines. Exogenous expression of MYC from an artificial promoter that is resistant to BET regulation significantly protected cells from growth suppression by BET inhibitors and revealed that MYC exerts a direct and tight control of key pro-growth and anti-apoptotic target genes. Transcriptional profiling of two cells after 4 and 8 hours of treatment with BET inhibitor shows that both MYC and its targets are strongly down-regulated. We thus demonstrate that pharmacologic inhibition of MYC is achievable through targeting BET bromodomains, and suggest that such inhibitors may have broad clinical applicability given the widespread pathogenetic role of MYC in cancer. LP-1, a multiple myeloma cell line, and Raji, a Burkitt lymphoma cell line, were treated with BET inhibitor and an inactive enantiomer for 4 or 8 hours. Two biological replicates of each sample were profiled on exon arrays.

Project description:NUT midline carcinoma (NMC) is a rare, aggressive subtype of squamous carcinoma that is driven by the BRD4-NUT fusion oncoprotein. BRD4, a BET protein, binds to chromatin through its two bromodomains, and NUT recruits the p300 histone acetyltransferse (HAT) to activate transcription of oncogenic target genes. BET selective bromodomain inhibitors have demonstrated on-target activity in NMC patients, but with limited efficacy. P300, like BRD4, contains a bromodomain. We show that combining selective p300/CBP and BET bromodomain inhibitors, GNE-781 and OTX015, respectively, induces synergistic inhibition of NMC growth. Treatment of NMC cells with the novel dual p300/CBP and BET bromodomain selective inhibitor, NEO2734, potently inhibits growth and induces differentiation of NMC cells in vitro; findings that correspond with potentiated transcriptional effects from combined BET and p300 bromodomain inhibition. In three disseminated NMC xenograft models, NEO2734 provided greater growth inhibition, with tumor regression and significant survival benefit seen in two of three models, compared with a lead clinical BET inhibitor or 'standard' chemotherapy.

Project description:ChIP-Seq of RNA Polymerase II, and transcriptional regulators in multiple myeloma (MM.1S), glioblastoma (U87-MG), and small cell lung carcinoma (H2171) treated with the BET bromodomain inhibitor JQ1. Cell lines (MM.1S, U87-MG, and H2171) representing multiple myeloma, glioblastoma, and small cell lung carcinoma, were treated with varying concentrations (5nM to 5µM) of the BET bromodomain inhibitor JQ1 followed by ChIP-Seq for RNA Polymerase II and transcriptional regulators. Other datasets from this series of experiments have been release as a part of GSE42355.

Project description:BET bromodomain inhibitors are known to block prostate cancer cell survival through suppression of c-Myc and androgen receptor (AR) function. However, little is known about other transcriptional modulators whose function is blocked by these drugs and the anti-tumor activity of BET bromodomain inhibition in AR-independent castration-resistant prostate cancers (CRPC), whose frequency may be increasing. In this study we determined that BET bromodomain inhibition suppresses survival of a diverse set of CRPC cell models, including those that do not express the AR or in which c-Myc is not suppressed. To identify additional transcriptional regulators whose suppression contributes to the anti-tumor effects of BET bromodomain inhibition, we treated multiple CRPC cell lines with the BET bromodomain inhibitor JQ1, measured genome-wide gene expression changes, and then used the Master Regulator Inference Algorithm (MARINa). This approach identified transcriptional regulators whose function is blocked by JQ1 and whose suppression recapitulates the effects of BET bromodomain inhibition. High Expression of these Master Regulators in aggressive human CRPC demonstrates their clinical relevance.

Project description:Multiple myeloma is a genetically heterogeneous disease of plasma cells. The thalidomide analog lenalidomide is a mainstay in the treatment of multiple myeloma and is used in combination with other drugs such as corticosteroids, chemotherapy and proteasome inhibitors, achieving high remission rates. However, most patients relapse due to acquired resistance of the malignant cells. Genetic analyses have revealed mutations in CRBN, the target of all IMiDs, as a resistance mechanism in 10% of patients, while for the majority of cases, the mechanism of resistance is unknown. Here, we performed integrated global quantitative tandem mass tag (TMT)-based proteomic and phosphoproteomic analyses and RNA sequencing in five paired pre-treatment and relapse samples from multiple myeloma patients. These analyses revealed proteins highly upregulated at relapse, including TRIP13, RRM1 and CDK6, which was not reflected on the RNA expression level. Overexpression of CDK6 in multiple myeloma cell lines reduced sensitivity to lenalidomide and pomalidomide in a kinase-dependent fashion. CDK6 inactivation by palbociclib or a CDK6-specific proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) plus lenalidomide or pomalidomide was highly synergistic. Proteomic analyses in cell lines revealed that CDK6 inhibition reverses a complex protein resistance signature including RRM1 and TRIP13 and in combination with IMiDs promotes metabolic remodeling and c-MYC downregulation . In conclusion, our global proteomic analyses identified CDK6 upregulation as a drug target to overcome lenalidomide resistance in multiple myeloma.

Project description:MYC-amplified medulloblastomas are highly lethal tumors. BET bromodomain inhibition was recently described to downregulate MYC-associated transcriptional activity in various cancer subtypes. To investigate whether JQ1, a BET bromodomain inhibitor is downregulation MYC and MYC-associated transcriptional activity, we performed global gene expression profiling of five medulloblastomas MYC-amplified patient-derived cell lines treated by JQ1 and the inactive form of JQ1. Five medulloblastomas patient-derived MYC-amplified cell lines were treated with the active and the inactive form of the drug (JQ1S or JQ1R, respectively, 1μM for 24 hours) followed by RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays
