Project description:Many neurodegenerative diseases are thought to be caused by impaired containment and/or disposal of neurotoxic material such as amyloid beta (Ab) and myelin debris. Indeed, recent human genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and animal model studies have begun to reveal critical roles for the brain’s professional phagocytes, microglia, as well as various innate immune receptors expressed by microglia in the control of neurotoxic material and subsequent neurodegenerative disease pathogenesis. Yet, the critical intracellular molecules that orchestrate the neuroprotective functions of microglia in degenerative disorders remain poorly understood. In our studies, we have identified the innate immune signaling molecule spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) as a key regulator of microglial phagocytosis in neurodegenerative disease. We find that targeted deletion of SYK in microglia leads to exacerbated Ab deposition, aggravated neuropathology, and cognitive defects in the 5xFAD mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Furthermore, disruption of SYK signaling in this AD model was also shown to impede the development of disease-associated microglia (DAMs), alter AKT/GSK3b-signaling in microglia, and to cause severe deficits in the ability of microglia to phagocytose Ab. Importantly, these critical neuroprotective functions of SYK in microglia were not only restricted to Ab-driven models of neurodegeneration, as we found that SYK is also a critical regulator of microglial phagocytosis and DAM phenotype acquisition in demyelinating disease. Collectively, these results help to break new ground in our understanding of the key innate immune signaling molecules that instruct beneficial microglial functions in response to neurotoxic material. Moreover, these findings suggest that targeting SYK may offer a therapeutic strategy to treat a spectrum of neurodegenerative disorders.

Project description:Background: Among all gynecologic malignancies, epithelial ovarian cancer has the highest case-to-fatality ratio. Most patients are diagnosed at advanced stages and recurrence is common and accounts for disease-related mortality. Spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) is an emerging cancer-associated kinase upregulated in recurrent tumors and is amenable for inhibition using small compounds that have been studied in clinical trials for autoimmune diseases. Our previous proteomic analysis identified several novel SYK substrates including EGFR and ERBB2. Here, we investigated the cross-talk between these pathways in ovarian carcinomas. Methods: Immunohistochemistry and immunoblotting were utilized to assess SYK and EGFR phosphorylation in ovarian serous carcinomas. Association with survival was determined by Kaplan-Meier analysis and the log-rank test. To study its role in EGFR signaling, SYK activity was modulated using a small molecule inhibitor, a syngeneic knockout, and an active kinase inducible system. We applied RNA-seq to investigate the SYK-regulated EGF-induced transcriptome. Results: Intense immunoreactivity of active pSYK(Y525/526) correlated with poor overall survival in two independent ovarian cancer cohorts. SYK directly phosphorylated EGFR and ERBB2, while knockout of SYK reduces their phosphorylation. Phosphorylation levels of SYK(Y525/526) positively correlated with EGFR(Y1187) and STAT3(Y705). Active SYK reduced sensitivity to the EGFR/ERBB2 inhibitor, lapatinib, and SYK non-phosphorylatable EGFR mutant was more sensitive to paclitaxel. SYK modulated the EGF-induced transcriptome, supporting its involvement in EGFR/ERBB2-regulated transcriptional activity. Conclusions: Our findings suggest an upstream role of SYK in regulating the EGFR/ERBB2 signaling, and provide a biological rationale for targeting SYK in ovarian cancer therapy.

Project description:Genetic studies have highlighted microglia as pivotal in orchestrating Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Microglia that adhere to Aβ plaques acquire a transcriptional signature, “diseaseassociated microglia” (DAM), which largely emanates from the TREM2-DAP12 receptor complex that transmits intracellular signals through the protein tyrosine kinase SYK. The human TREM2R47H variant associated with high AD risk fails to activate microglia via SYK. We found that SYK-deficient microglia cannot encase Aβ plaques, accelerating brain pathology and behavioral deficits. SYK deficiency impaired the PI3K-AKT-GSK3β-mTOR pathway, incapacitating anabolic support required for attaining the DAM profile. However, SYK-deficient microglia proliferated and advanced to an Apoe-expressing prodromal stage of DAM; this pathway relied on the adaptor DAP10, which also binds TREM2. Thus, microglial responses to Aβ involve non-redundant SYK- and DAP10-pathways. Systemic administration of an antibody against CLEC7A, a receptor that directly activates SYK, rescued microglia activation in mice expressing the TREM2R47H allele, unveiling new options for AD immunotherapy.

Project description:Cooperative dependencies between mutant oncoproteins and wild-type proteins are critical in cancer pathogenesis and therapy resistance. Although spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) has been implicated in hematologic malignancies, it is rarely mutated. We used kinase activity profiling to identify collaborators of SYK in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and determined that FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) is transactivated by SYK via direct binding. Highly activated SYK is predominantly found in FLT3-ITD positive AML and cooperates with FLT3-ITD to activate MYC transcriptional programs. FLT3-ITD AML cells are more vulnerable to SYK suppression than FLT3 wild-type counterparts. In a FLT3-ITD in vivo model, SYK is indispensable for myeloproliferative disease (MPD) development, and SYK overexpression promotes overt transformation to AML and resistance to FLT3-ITD-targeted therapy. HL-60, MOLM-14, and U937 cell lines were transduced in triplicate with a control luciferase-directed shRNA (target sequence CCTAAGGTTAAGTCGCCCTCG), and in duplicate with two SYK-directed shRNAs: shSYK_1 (clone ID TRCN0000197257, target sequence GCAGCAGAACAGACATGTCAA) and shSYK_2 (clone ID TRCN0000003163 , target sequence GCAGGCCATCATCAGTCAGAA), and were then selected with 1 µg/ml puromycin 48 hours post-infection. At day 5 post-infection, RNA was extracted and profiled using HT HG-U133A arrays (Affymetrix) at the Broad Institute (Cambridge, MA, USA). The computational analysis of the gene expression data was performed through the Genome Space bioinformatics platform (http://www.genomespace.org).

Project description:Loss of Syk in normal breast cells in vivo and in vitro: gene expression and phenotypic switch to stem-cell like with induction of invadopodia Morphological and gene microarray analysis following Syk knockdown in MCF10A reveals a loss of luminal and differentiated epithelial features with epithelial to mesenchymal transition and a gain in invadopodia and stem/ progenitor cell marker expression. These results support the role of Syk in limiting normal stem/progenitor proliferation and invasion during morphogenesis, and support the role of Syk as a critical tumor suppressor for breast cancer.

Project description:Targeted therapy studies with small molecules against kinases, such as spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK), are underway in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and show promising initial results. Identifying the potential mechanism of resistance and finding new drug combinations to overcome them, however, is essential for the long-term success of these targeted agents. Here, we conducted a genome-scale ORF resistance screen and identified activation of the RAS/MAPK/ERK signaling pathway as one major mechanism of resistance to SYK inhibition. This finding was validated in AML cell lines with innate and acquired resistance to a SYK inhibitor and in AML samples from patients who developed resistance to SYK inhibition. In order to circumvent this resistance, we demonstrate the synergistic activity of a MEK Inhibitor in combination with a SYK inhibitor in RAS mutated cells, as well as in entospletinib-resistant AML cells.
