Project description:Overactivation of the Hedgehog (HH) signaling pathway is implicated in many cancers. In this study, we demonstrate that the small molecule RITA, a p53 activator, effectively downregulates HH signaling in human medulloblastoma and rhabdomyosarcoma cells irrespective of p53. This is mediated by a ROS-independent activation of the MAP kinase JNK. We also show that in vitro RITA sensitized cells to the GLI antagonist GANT61, as co-administration of the two drugs had more pronounced effects on cell proliferation and apoptosis. In vivo administration of RITA or GANT61 suppressed rhabdomyosarcoma xenograft growth in nude mice; however, co-administration did not further enhance tumor suppression, even though cell proliferation was decreased. RITA was more potent than GANT61 in downregulating HH target gene expression; surprisingly, this suppressive effect was almost completely eliminated when the two drugs were administered together. Notably, RNA-seq demonstrated a broader response of pathways involved in cancer cell growth in the combination treatment, providing a plausible interpretation for tumor reduction in the absence of HH signaling downregulation.

Project description:Targeting “oncogene addiction” is a promising strategy for anti-cancer therapy. Here, we report a potent inhibition of crucial oncogenes by p53 upon reactivation with small molecule RITA in vitro and in vivo. RITA-activated p53 unleashes transcriptional repression of anti-apoptotic proteins Mcl-1, Bcl-2, MAP4, and survivin, blocks Akt pathway on several levels and downregulates c-Myc, cyclin E and B-catenin. p53 ablates c-Myc expression via several mechanisms at transcriptional and posttranscriptional level. We show that transrepression of oncogenes correlated with higher level of p53 bound to chromatin-bound p53 than transactivation of pro-apoptotic targets. Inhibition of oncogenes by p53 reduces the cell’s ability to buffer pro-apoptotic signals and elicits robust apoptosis. Our study highlights the role of transcriptional repression for p53-mediated tumor suppression. Keywords: time course

Project description:Since its discovery as a tumour suppressor some fifteen years ago, the transcription factor p53 has attracted paramount attention for its role as “the guardian of the genome”. TP53 mutations occur so frequently in cancer, regardless of patient age or tumour type, that they appear to be part of the life history of at least 50% of human tumours. In most tumours that retain wild-type p53, its function is inactivated due to deregulated HDM2, a protein which binds to p53 and which can inhibit the transcriptional activity of p53 and induce its degradation. RITA is a low-molecular-weight compound which addresses the second group of tumours retaining functionally reactive wt p53. It was found in a screening of the National Cancer Institute (NCI) library of low-molecular-weight compounds based on its ability to selectively kill wtp53-containing cells. RITA binds directly to p53 and diplaces its main destructor Mdm2, as well as inducing a shift in the conformation of p53. This is in contrast to the wtp53-reactivating compound Nutlin3a, which targets Mdm2, inhibiting its ability to degrade p53. Using microarray technology we have explored the effect of RITA on the transcriptome of isogenic cell-lines with knocked-out (KO) or intact (WT) TP53. While the effects on KO cells are below detection limit, the effects on WT cells are profound. The known p53 targets induced are predominately apoptotic, in contrast to the genes affected by Nutlin3a, which are exclusively growth-arrest genes. Keywords: Antitumor agent HCT116 parental and HCT116 p53-null (HCT116 TP53-/-) cells were subjected to treatment with 1uM RITA for 12h, or left untreated. The experiment was done in three independent biological replicates.

Project description:NSTS-11 cell line derived from a primary embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma was used for serial xenotransplantation in NSG mice in vivo. Subsequently, three cell lines, LTB1, LTB5, and LTB24, were derived from primary, secondary, and tertiary xenograft tumors, respectively. Gene expression profiling of all four cell lines was performed to identify changes in gene expression over the course of serial xenotransplantation, which was associated with a gradual increase of stemness of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma cells. For each of the xenograft-derived cell lines, the parental NSTS-11 cell line served as a reference control.
