Histone deacetylase inhibition decreases proliferation and potentiates the effect of ionizing radiation in atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor cells

ABSTRACT: Atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (ATRT) is a highly malignant CNS neoplasm whichprimarily occurs in children under three years of age. Due to poor outcomes with intense and toxicmultimodality treatment, new therapies are urgently needed. Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDIs)have been evaluated as novel agents for multiple malignancies and have been shown to function asradiosensitizers. They act as epigenetic modifiers and lead to re-expression of inappropriatelyrepressed genes, proteins, and cellular functions. Due to the underlying chromatin remodeling genemutation in ATRT, HDIs are ideal candidates for therapeutic evaluation. To evaluate the role of HDIsagainst ATRT in vitro, we assessed the effect of drug treatment on proliferation, apoptosis, and geneexpression. Additionally, we examined HDI pretreatment as a radiosensitization strategy for ATRT.MTS and clonogenic assays demonstrated that HDI treatment significantly reduces the proliferativecapacity of BT-12 and BT-16 ATRT cells. Also, the HDI SNDX-275 was able to induce apoptosis in bothcell lines and induced p21Waf1/Cip1 protein expression as measured by Western blot. Evaluation ofdifferential gene expression by microarray and pathway analysis after HDI treatment demonstratedalterations of several key ATRT cellular functions. Finally, we showed that HDI pretreatmenteffectively potentiates the effect of ionizing radiation on ATRT cells as measured by clonogenic assay.These findings suggest that the addition of HDIs to ATRT therapy may prove beneficial, especiallywhen administered in combination with current treatment modalities such as radiation. Keywords: ATRT; HDAC inhibitor; radiosensitization BT12 and BT16 cells were plated and subsequently treated for 24hr with IC25 concentrations of SNDX-275 (Sigma), at which time total RNA was collected. IC25 concentrations were calculated based on MTS assay.For BT12, the SNDX-275 IC25 was 1.4uM. For BT16, it was 0.44uM. The controls had DMSO added at equivalent volumes.

Project description:Background:; Osteoblast differentiation requires the coordinated stepwise expression of multiple genes. Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDIs) accelerate the osteoblast differentiation process by blocking the activity of histone deacetylases (HDACs), which alter gene expression by modifying chromatin structure. We previously demonstrated that HDIs and HDAC3 shRNAs accelerate matrix mineralization and the expression of osteoblast maturation genes (e.g. alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin). Identifying other genes that are differentially regulated by HDIs might identify new pathways that contribute to osteoblast differentiation. Results:; To identify other osteoblast genes that are altered early by HDIs, we incubated MC3T3-E1 preosteoblasts with HDIs (trichostatin A, MS-275, or valproic acid) for 18 hours in osteogenic conditions. The promotion of osteoblast differentiation by HDIs in this experiment was confirmed by osteogenic assays. Gene expression profiles relative to vehicle-treated cells were assessed by microarray analysis with Affymetrix GeneChip 430 2.0 arrays. The regulation of several genes by HDIs in MC3T3-E1 cells and primary osteoblasts was verified by quantitative real-time PCR. Nine genes were differentially regulated by at least two-fold after exposure to each of the three HDIs and six were verified by PCR in osteoblasts. Four of the verified genes (solute carrier family 9 isoform 3 regulator 1 (Slc9a3r1), sorbitol dehydrogenase 1, a kinase anchor protein, and glutathione S-transferase alpha 4) were induced. Two genes (proteasome subunit, beta type 10 and adaptor-related protein complex AP-4 sigma 1) were suppressed. We also identified eight growth factors and growth factor receptor genes that are significantly altered by each of the HDIs, including Frizzled related proteins 1 and 4, which modulate the Wnt signaling pathway. Conclusions: This study identifies osteoblast genes that are regulated early by HDIs and indicates pathways that might promote osteoblast maturation following HDI exposure. One gene whose upregulation following HDI treatment is consistent with this notion is Slc9a3r1. Also known as NHERF1, Slc9a3r1 is required for optimal bone density. Similarly, the regulation of Wnt receptor genes indicates that this crucial pathway in osteoblast development is also affected by HDIs. These data support the hypothesis that HDIs regulate the expression of genes that promote osteoblast differentiation and maturation. Experiment Overall Design: To identify other osteoblast genes that are altered early by HDIs, we incubated MC3T3-E1 preosteoblasts with HDIs (trichostatin A, MS-275, or valproic acid) or the vehicle control (DMSO) for 18 hours in osteogenic conditions. Gene expression profiles relative to vehicle-treated cells were assessed in triplicate (in some cases quadruplicate) samples by microarray analysis with Affymetrix GeneChip 430 2.0 arrays.
