A phosphoproteomic comparison of B-RAFV600E and MKK1/2 inhibitors in melanoma cells, part 1

ABSTRACT: To provide insight into the molecular nature of the clinical responses seen with MAPK pathway inhibition in melanoma, we used quantitative mass spectrometry to characterize the inhibitor-dependent phosphoproteome of human melanoma cells treated with the B-RAFV600E inhibitor PLX4032 (vemurafenib) and the MKK1/2 inhibitor AZD6244 (selumetinib).. In three replicate experiments, we quantified a total of 23,986 phosphosites on 4,722 proteins. This included 1,317 phosphosites that reproducibly decreased in response to at least one inhibitor.

Inhibitors of oncogenic B-RAF(V600E) and MKK1/2 have yielded remarkable responses in B-RAF(V600E)-positive melanoma patients. However, the efficacy of these inhibitors is limited by the inevitable onset of resistance. Despite the fact that these inhibitors target the same pathway, combination treatment with B-RAF(V600E) and MKK1/2 inhibitors has been shown to improve both response rates and progression-free survival in B-RAF(V600E) melanoma patients. To provide insight into the molecular nature ...[more]

Project description:BACKGROUND:Isobutanol is a promising next generation biofuel with demonstrated high yield microbial production, but the toxicity of this molecule reduces fermentation volumetric productivity and final titers. Organic solvent tolerance is a complex, multigenic phenotype that has been recalcitrant to rational engineering approaches. We apply experimental evolution followed by genome resequencing and a gene expression study to elucidate genetic bases on adaptation to exogenous isobutanol stress. RESULTS:The adaptations acquired in our evolved lineages exhibit antagonistic pleiotropy between minimal and rich medium, and appear to be specific to the effects of longer chain alcohols. By examining genotypic adaptation in multiple independent lineages, we find evidence of parallel evolution in hfq, mdh, acrAB, gatYZABCD, and rph genes. Many isobutanol tolerant lineages show reduced rpoS activity, perhaps related to mutations in hfq or acrAB. Consistent with the complex, multigenic nature of solvent tolerance, we observe adaptations in a diversity of cellular processes. Many adaptations appear to involve epistasis between different mutations, implying a rugged fitness landscape for isobutanol tolerance. We observe a trend of evolution targeting post-transcriptional regulation and high centrality nodes of biochemical networks. Collectively, the genotypic adaptations we observe suggest mechanisms of adaptation to isobutanol stress based on remodelling the cell envelope and surprisingly, stress response attenuation. CONCLUSIONS:We have discovered a set of genotypic adaptations that confer increased tolerance to exogenous isobutanol stress. Our results are immediately useful to efforts to engineer more isobutanol tolerant host strains of E. coli for isobutanol production. We suggest that rpoS and post-transcriptional regulators, such as hfq, RNA helicases, and sRNAs may be interesting mutagenesis targets for futurue global phenotype engineering. Two strains (WT strain and G3.2 mutant strain), each with two culture conditions (with and without isobutanol in medium). Three biological replicates for each strain/culture condition. Twelve samples in total.

Project description:Although the "seed and soil" hypothesis was proposed by Stephen Paget at the end of the 19th century, where he said that tumor cells (seeds) need a propitious medium (soil) to be able to establish metastases, only recently the tumor microenvironment started to be more studied in the field of Oncology. Multiple myeloma (MM), a malignancy of plasma cells, can be considered one of the types of cancers where there is more evidence in the literature of the central role that the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment plays, contributing to proliferation, survival, migration and drug resistance of tumor cells. Despite all advances in the therapeutic arsenal for MM treatment in the last years, the disease remains incurable. Thus, studies aiming a better understanding of the pathophysiology of the disease, as well as searching for new therapeutic targets are necessary and welcome. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate the protein expression profiling of mononuclear cells derived from BM of MM patients in comparison with these same cell types derived from healthy individuals, in order to fill this gap in MM treatment. Proteomic analysis was performed using the mass spectrometry technique and further analyses were done using bioinformatics tools, to identify dysregulated biological pathways and/or processes in the BM microenvironment of patients with MM as a result of the disease. Among the pathways identified in this study, we can highlight an upregulation of proteins related to protein biosynthesis, especially chaperone proteins, in patients with MM. Additionally, we also found an upregulation of several proteins involved in energy metabolism, which is one of the cancer hallmarks. Finally, with regard to the downregulated proteins, we can highlight mainly those involved in different pathways of the immune response, corroborating the data that has demonstrated that the immune system of MM is impaired and, therefore, the immunotherapies that have been studied recently for the treatment of the disease are extremely necessary in the search for a control and a cure for these patients who live with the disease.

Project description:B-1 and B-2 lymphocytes are derived from distinct developmental pathways, and represent layered arms of the innate and adaptive immune systems, respectively. In contrast to the majority of murine B- cell malignancies, which stain positive with the B220 antibody, we discovered a novel form of B-cell leukemia in NUP98-PHF23 (NP23) transgenic mice. The immunophenotype (Lin- B220 - CD19+ AA4.1+) was identical to B-1 progenitor cells, and VH gene usage was skewed toward 3’ V regions, similar to murine fetal liver B-cells. We performed RNA sequencing and determined that the expression profile of these leukemias was most similar to fetal liver pro B fraction BC, a known source of B-1 B cells, further supporting a B-1 progenitor origin of these leukemias. The NP23 B-1 progenitor ALLs acquired spontaneous mutations in both Bcor and Jak pathway (Jak1/2/3 and Stat5a) genes, supporting a hypothesis that mutations in three critical pathways (stem cell self-renewal, B-cell differentiation, and cytokine signaling) collaborate to induce B-cell precursor (BCP) ALL. Finally, the Tslp cytokine is required for murine B- 1 development, and chromosomal rearrangements resulting in overexpression of the TSLP receptor (CRLF2) are present in some high risk BCP ALL patients (referred to as CRLF2r ALL). Gene expression profiles of NP23 pro-B1 ALL were more similar to CRLF2r ALL than non-CRLF2r ALL, and analysis of VH gene usage from CRLF2r ALL patients demonstrated preferential usage of VH regions used by human B-1 B-cells, leading to the suggestion that this subset of BCP ALL patients have a malignancy of B-1, rather than B-2 B-cell origin. RNA was extracted from seven NP23 pro-B1, two E2A-PBX pre-B2, and three Eμ-RET pre-B2 ALL samples, and purified wild-type fetal liver Ter119-AA4.1+CD19+B220+ cells pooled from E15.5-16 embryos. Cells were purified using fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS) at the NCI FACS core facility using an Aria Violet-Cli FACS sorter. RNA samples were prepared using TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen) following the manufacturer’s recommended protocol. Samples were evaluated using Fragment Analyzer and NanoDrop. Indexed cDNA sequencing libraries were prepared using the TruSeq Stranded mRNA Sample Preparation Kit, and bar-coded with individual tags, following the manufactures recommendations. Library preparation was performed using a 96-well plate method. The libraries were quantified using Qubit fluoroscopy and the NGS kit for Fragment Analyzer. Any failed results from the fragment analyzer were repeated using 2100 Bioanalyzer. Indexed libraries were prepared as equimolar pools and run on HiSeq4000 (2x150 paired end runs) to generate 40 million paired-end reads per sample library.
