LC-MS/MS identification of differentially expressed proteins in carboplatin resistant Triple Negative Breast Cancer

ABSTRACT: Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the subtype of breast cancer most lacking in efficient treatment options. Although many TNBCs show remarkable responses to carboplatin-based chemotherapy, they often develop resistance over time. With increasing use of carboplatin in clinics, there is a pressing need to understand mechanisms causing carboplatin resistance and identify the vulnerabilities of carboplatin-resistant tumors. We generated carboplatin-resistance models based on the TNBC cell line MDA-MB-468 and patient derived xenograft (PDX) models of TNBCs. By combining the results of mass spectrometry-based proteome profiling and a kinome RNA interference screen, we assessed the molecular changes and vulnerabilities of carboplatin-resistant TNBCs. Using pharmacological inhibition of the identified targets, we validated the dependencies of carboplatin-resistant cells in vitro and in PDX models. We found that carboplatin resistance in TNBC is accompanied by drastic proteome rewiring. Carboplatin-induced metabolism alterations and upregulation of anti-oxidative response keep low levels of DNA damage and support cell replication in the presence of carboplatin. Carboplatin-resistant cells also exhibited longer mitosis due to dysregulation of mitotic checkpoint. Whereas the components of the mitotic checkpoints, AURKA and BUB1, are essential for the viability of carboplatin-resistant cells, the checkpoint kinases CHEK1 and WEE1 are indispensable for survival of carboplatin-treated resistant cells. We confirmed that pharmacological inhibition of CHEK1 by prexasertib in the presence of carboplatin is well tolerated by mice and suppresses the growth of carboplatin-resistant TNBC xenografts. Abrogation of the mitotic checkpoint re-sensitizes carboplatin-resistant TNBCs to carboplatin. CHEK1 inhibition represents a potential strategy for the treatment of carboplatin-resistant TNBCs.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive breast cancer subtype, lacking effective therapy. Many TNBCs show remarkable response to carboplatin-based chemotherapy, but often develop resistance over time. With increasing use of carboplatin in the clinic, there is a pressing need to identify vulnerabilities of carboplatin-resistant tumors.

Project description:Purpose:Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) commonly metastasizes to the brain and predicts poor prognosis with limited therapeutic options. TNBC frequently harbors BRCA mutations translating to platinum sensitivity; platinum response may be augmented by additional suppression of DNA repair mechanisms through poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase (PARP) inhibition. We evaluated brain penetrance and efficacy of Carboplatin +/- the PARP inhibitor ABT888, and investigated gene expression changes in murine intracranial (IC) TNBC models stratified by BRCA and molecular subtype status. Experimental design:Athymic mice were inoculated intra-cerebrally with BRCA-mutant: SUM149 (basal), MDA-MB-436 (claudin-low), or BRCA-wild-type: MDA-MB-468 (basal), MDA-MB-231BR (claudin-low) TNBC cells and treated with PBS control (IP, weekly), Carboplatin (50mg/kg/week, IP), ABT888 (25mg/kg/day, OG), or their combination. DNA-damage (?-H2AX) and apoptosis (cleaved-Caspase-3(cC3)) were assessed via IHC of IC tumors. Gene expression of BRCA-mutant IC tumors was measured. Results: Carboplatin+/-ABT888 significantly improved survival in BRCA-mutant IC models compared to control, but did not improve survival in BRCA-wild-type IC models. Carboplatin+ABT888 revealed a modest survival advantage versus Carboplatin in BRCA-mutant models. ABT888 yielded a marginal survival benefit in the MDA-MB-436 but not in the SUM149 model. BRCA-mutant SUM149 expression of ?-H2AX and cC3 proteins was elevated in all treatment groups compared to Control, while BRCA-wild-type MDA-MB-468 cC3 expression did not increase with treatment. Carboplatin treatment induced common gene expression changes in BRCA-mutant models.Conclusions: Carboplatin+/-ABT888 improves survival in BRCA-mutant IC TNBC models with corresponding DNA damage and gene expression changes. Combination therapy represents a promising treatment strategy for patients with TNBC brain metastases warranting further clinical investigation. reference x sample
