Project description:In this study, to investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms of how EGFR-TKIs resistance occurs in NSCLC, we examined gene expression using microarray technology on gefitinib-resistant NSCLC cells to obtain differentially expressed (DE) lncRNAs and mRNAs. Then we carried out KEGG enrichment analysis for DE-mRNAs and constructed the ceRNA regulatory network of DE-lncRNAs and DE-mRNAs. Our results revealed the downregulated lncRNA LINC01128 acted as ceRNA to decrease PTEN via sponging miR-25-3p, and then the signal reactions caused by the reduction of PTEN would activate PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, which may lead to the development of drug resistance to EGFR-TKIs in NSCLC. Our findings will provide a novel perspective for the underlying molecular mechanisms of EGFR-TKIs resistance in NSCLC. Besides, this research will help to develop new therapeutic targets for EGFR-TKIs resistance in NSCLC.

Project description:Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations are leading oncogenic drivers in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Many third-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been developed to target EGFR T790M and activating mutations. Osimertinib (AZD9291) was the first approved drug and is now the standard-of-care therapy for untreated EGFR-mutated NSCLC. Our team previously identified ASK120067, for which we have submitted a new drug application (NDA) in China. Although third-generation EGFR TKIs exhibit favorable antitumor effects in NSCLC treatment, acquired resistance with largely unexplored mechanisms still limits their long-term efficacy. In this study, we aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying resistance to EGFR TKIs and identify new therapeutic strategies for the treatment of NSCLC. Methods: Elevated expression of BCAT1 in EGFR TKI-resistant lung cancer cells was identified using stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC)-based proteomics analysis and verified with Western blotting and RT‒qPCR.

Project description:Introduction: Overcoming of acquired resistance to EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) is an intractable obstacle for many clinical oncologists. The mechanisms of resistance to EGFR-TKIs are very complex. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) may play an important role in cancer development and metastasis. However, the biological process between lncRNAs and drug resistance to EGFR mutated lung cancer largely unknown. Methods: Osimertinib and afatinib-resistant EGFR-mutated lung cancer cells were established using by a stepwise method. Microarray analysis of non-coding and coding RNAs was performed using parental and resistant EGFR-mutant NSCLC cells. Results: Microarray analysis was evaluated by bioinformatics analysis through medical-industrial collaboration. CRNDE and DGCR5 lncRNAs were highly expressed in EGFR-TKIs-resistant cells. CRNDE binds to eIF4A3 protein, down-regulates eIF4A3 and MUC1 expression, and down-regulates p-EGFR expression. CRNDE inhibition activated the eIF4A3/MUC1/EGFR signaling pathway and apoptotic activity and restored sensitivity to EGFR-TKIs. Conclusions: We identified lncRNA CRNDE associated with resistance to EGFR-TKIs in EGFR-mutant NSCLC cells. CRNDE may be a novel therapeutic target for EGFR mutant NSCLC patients.

Project description:Non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLCs) harboring activating EGFR mutants show dramatic responses to EGFR TKIs, such as erlotinib and geffitinib. However, nearly all patients show relapse within 1 year after initial treatment. We used microarrays to detail global gene expression changes in EGFR mutant cells vs. WT cells responding to erlotinib. 4 EGFR mutant and 4 WT NSCLC cells were treated with or without erlotinib for 24 hr, followed by RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a leading cause of death worldwide. Activating mutations in the tyrosine kinase domain of the oncogene epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) are responsible for ~10-50% of all LUAD cases. Although EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been effective in prolonging NSCLC patient survival and quality of life, acquired resistance mechanisms and disease progression are inevitable. Contemporary second- and third-line treatments, such as immunotherapy, remain ineffective for these patients, presenting a clear and unmet need for alternative or adjuvant therapeutics for the treatment of mutant EGFR positive NSCLC. Here we show that an anti-EGFR aptamer (EGFRapt) decreases viability of NSCLC cell lines harboring the L858R ± T790M mutation in EGFR but not cell lines harboring wild-type or exon 19 deletions. In a humanized xenograft mouse model, EGFRapt decreased tumor burden compared to controls when delivered intratumorally over multiple doses. To elucidate the mechanism by which EGFRapt exerts these effects, we examined kinase-dependent and kinase-independent mechanisms and found that it is cell line dependent, either inhibiting cellular proliferation or inducing cell death. Post hoc transcriptomics analysis comparing EGFRapt to control aptamer or vehicle validated these findings and provided additional mechanistic insights. Overall, these data establish that EGFRapt has direct anti-cancer activity in mutant EGFR positive NSCLC via targetable mechanisms that are independent of existing approaches and provide a foundation for further development of nucleic acid-based therapies that target EGFR.

Project description:The receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) EGFR is overexpressed and mutated in NSCLC. These mutations can be targeted by RTK inhibitors (TKIs), such as erlotinib. Chromatin-modifying agents offer a novel therapy approach by sensitizing tumor cells to TKIs. The NSCLC cell lines HCC827 (EGFR mutant, adenocarcinoma), A549 (EGFR wt, adenocarcinoma) and NCI-H460 (EGFR wt, large cell carcinoma) were analyzed by SNP6.0 array. Changes in proliferation were quantified by WST-1 assay, apoptosis by Annexin V/7-AAD flow cytometry and histone marks (acH3, H3K4me1,-2,-3) by immunoblotting. Expectedly, the EGFR wt cell lines A549 and NCI-H460 were insensitive to the growth-inhibiting effect of single-agent erlotinib (IC50 70-100µM), compared to HCC827 (IC50 <0.02μM). Treatment with panobinostat diminished growth to <50% in both EGFR wt and <30% in HCC827 cells. The combination of both drugs significantly reduced proliferation by ≥70% in A549, >95% in HCC827, but not further in NCI-H460. Panobinostat alone induced differentiation and expression of p21WAF1/CIP1 and p53 in all three cell lines, with almost no further increase when combined with erlotinib. In contrast, combination treatment additively decreased pERK, pAKT and pEGFR in A549, and synergistically induced acH3 in both adenocarcinoma lines. Surprisingly, we also saw an induction of H3K4 methylation marks in all three cell lines. In conclusion, panobinostat synergistically sensitized lung adenocarcinoma cells to the antiproliferative effects of erlotinib. Since single-agent erlotinib has only modest clinical effects in adenocarcinoma EGFR wt patients, combination therapy with an HDACi might offer a promising therapy approach to extend this activity. Copy-number analysis of three NSCLC cell lines HCC827, A549 and NCI-H460 (in unicates) was performed according to protocol by Affymetrix Genome-Wide Human SNP-Array 6.0.

Project description:The Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) regulates a diverse set of biological processes including cell growth, proliferation, and differentiation. Deregulation of the EGFR pathway has been implicated in a variety of human diseases including cancer. Gefitinib and erlotinib are tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) that have demonstrated clinical benefit for patients with Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and EGFR activating mutations. However, patients invariably acquire resistance to TKI treatment through a number of mechanisms. We utilized in vitro models of NSCLC with EGFR activating mutations and derived three isogenic cell lines with acquired resistance to gefitinib. We next studied genomewide mRNA expression in resistance and wild type cells and their effect in the reprogramming of pathways in lung cancer cell line models..

Project description:Despite initial and often dramatic responses of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-addicted lung tumors to the EGFR-specific tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), gefitinib and erlotinib, nearly all develop resistance and relapse. To explore novel mechanisms mediating acquired resistance, we employed non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines bearing activating mutations in EGFR and rendered them resistant to EGFR-specific TKIs through chronic adaptation in tissue culture. In addition to previously observed resistance mechanisms including EGFR-T790M 'gate-keeper' mutations and MET amplification, a subset of the seven chronically adapted NSCLC cell lines including HCC4006, HCC2279 and H1650 cells exhibited marked induction of fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 2 and FGF receptor 1 (FGFR1) mRNA and protein. Also, adaptation to EGFR-specific TKIs was accompanied by an epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) as assessed by changes in CDH1, VIM, ZEB1 and ZEB2 expression and altered growth properties in Matrigel. In adapted cell lines exhibiting increased FGF2 and FGFR1 expression, measures of growth and signaling, but not EMT, were blocked by FGFR-specific TKIs, an FGF-ligand trap and FGFR1 silencing with RNAi. In parental HCC4006 cells, cell growth was strongly inhibited by gefitinib, although drug-resistant clones progress within 10 days. Combined treatment with gefitinib and AZD4547, an FGFR-specific TKI, prevented the outgrowth of drug-resistant clones. Thus, induction of FGF2 and FGFR1 following chronic adaptation to EGFR-specific TKIs provides a novel autocrine receptor tyrosine kinase-driven bypass pathway in a subset of lung cancer cell lines that are initially sensitive to EGFR-specific TKIs. The findings support FGFR-specific TKIs as potentially valuable additions to existing targeted therapeutic strategies with EGFR-specific TKIs to prevent or delay acquired resistance in EGFR-driven NSCLC. Examination of mRNA levels in DMSO and gefitinib-resistant cultures of HCC4006 and HCC827. Each group has two replicates.
