Targeting the MLL complex in castration-resistant prostate cancer [ChIP-seq]

ABSTRACT: Men who develop metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) invariably succumb to the disease. The development and progression to CRPC following androgen ablation therapy is predominantly driven by unregulated androgen receptor (AR) signaling. Despite the success of recently approved therapies targeting AR signaling, such as abiraterone and second-generation anti-androgens MDV3100 (enzalutamide), durable responses are limited, presumably due to acquired resistance. Recently, JQ1 and I-BET, two selective small molecule inhibitors that target the amino-terminal bromodomains of BRD4, have been shown to exhibit antiproliferative effects in a range of malignancies. Here we show that AR signaling-competent CRPC cell lines are preferentially sensitive to BET bromodomain inhibition. BRD4 physically interacts with the N-terminal domain of AR and can be disrupted by JQ1. Like the direct AR antagonist, MDV3100, JQ1 disrupted AR recruitment to target gene loci. In contrast to MDV3100, JQ1 functions downstream of AR, and more potently abrogated BRD4 localization to AR target loci and AR mediated gene transcription including induction of TMPRSS2-ERG and its oncogenic activity. In vivo, BET bromodomain inhibition was more efficacious than direct AR antagonism in CRPC xenograft models. Taken together, these studies provide a novel epigenetic approach for the concerted blockade of oncogenic drivers in advanced prostate cancer.

BET Bromodomain Inhibition Blocks the Function of a Critical AR-Independent Master Regulator Network in Lethal Prostate Cancer

Project description:BET bromodomain inhibitors are known to block prostate cancer cell survival through suppression of c-Myc and androgen receptor (AR) function. However, little is known about other transcriptional modulators whose function is blocked by these drugs and the anti-tumor activity of BET bromodomain inhibition in AR-independent castration-resistant prostate cancers (CRPC), whose frequency may be increasing. In this study we determined that BET bromodomain inhibition suppresses survival of a diverse set of CRPC cell models, including those that do not express the AR or in which c-Myc is not suppressed. To identify additional transcriptional regulators whose suppression contributes to the anti-tumor effects of BET bromodomain inhibition, we treated multiple CRPC cell lines with the BET bromodomain inhibitor JQ1, measured genome-wide gene expression changes, and then used the Master Regulator Inference Algorithm (MARINa). This approach identified transcriptional regulators whose function is blocked by JQ1 and whose suppression recapitulates the effects of BET bromodomain inhibition. High Expression of these Master Regulators in aggressive human CRPC demonstrates their clinical relevance.

Long non-coding RNA MANCR is a target of BET bromodomain protein BRD4 and plays a critical role for cellular migration and invasion abilities of prostate cancer

Project description:Androgen receptor (AR)-negative castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is highly aggressive and resistant to current therapies. BET bromodomain protein BRD4 binds to super-enhancers (SEs) that drive high expression of oncogenes in many cancers. A BET inhibitor JQ1 has been found to suppress malignant phenotypes of prostate cancer cells, however, the target genes of JQ1 remains largely unknown. Here we show that SE-associated genes specific for AR-negative CRPC PC3 cells include the genes involved in migration and invasion and that JQ1 impairs migration and invasion of PC3 cells. We identified the long non-coding RNA MANCR, which is markedly down-regulated by JQ1 and found that BRD4 binds to the MANCR locus. MANCR knockdown led to a significant decrease in migration and invasion of PC3 cells. RNA sequencing analysis revealed that expression of the genes involved in migration and invasion is altered by MANCR knockdown. In summary, our data demonstrate that MANCR has a critical role for cellular migration and invasion abilities of PC3 cells.

Contribution of BET proteins to androgen (DHT)-stimulated gene expression program

Project description:Competitive inhibitors of acetyl-lysine binding to the bromodomains of the BET (bromodomain and extra terminal) family are being developed for the treatment of solid and heme malignancies. BET family member BRD4 function at enhancers/super-enhancers has been shown to sustain signal-dependent or pathogenic gene expression programs. Here we tested the hypothesis that the transcription factor drivers of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) clinical progression, including the Androgen Receptor (AR), are critically dependent on BRD4 and thus represent a sensitive solid tumor indication for the BET inhibitor ABBV-075. DHT-stimulated transcription of AR target genes was inhibited by ABBV-075 without significant effect on AR protein expression. Further, ABBV-075 disrupted DHT-stimulated recruitment of BET family member BRD4 to gene regulatory regions co-occupied by AR, including the well-established PSA and TMPRSS2 enhancers. Persistent BET inhibition disrupted the composition and function of AR occupied enhancers as measured by a reduction in AR and H3K27Ac ChIP signal and inhibition of eRNA transcription. ABBV-075 displayed potent anti-proliferative activity in multiple models of resistance to second generation anti-androgens and inhibited the activity of AR-V7 and the AR LBD gain-of-function mutations, F877L and L702H. ABBV-075 was also a potent inhibitor of MYC and the TMPRSS2-ETS fusion protein, important parallel transcription factor drivers of CRPC.

Resistance to BET inhibitor leads to new therapeutic vulnerabilities in castration resistant prostate cancer

Project description:BRD4 plays a major role in the transcription networks orchestrated by androgen receptor (AR) in castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) cells. Bromodomain and extraterminal protein (BET) inhibitors displace BRD4 protein from chromatin, resulting in the inhibition of oncogenic transcriptional programs. Several BET inhibitors (BETi) are currently being evaluated in clinical trials for a variety of malignancies, including CRPC. Here we describe a general mechanism of acquired resistance to BETi due to modulation of cellular pathways that are amenable to targeted therapies in CRPC cells. BETi resistant CRPC cells displayed cross resistance to a variety of BETi in the absence of gatekeeper mutations or persistent drug pump activation. Resistant cells exhibited reduced chromatin bound BRD4, and were less sensitive to Proteolysis Targeting Chimeric (PROTAC) -mediated degradation or genetic knockdown, suggesting a BRD4-independent transcription program. Transcriptomic analysis revealed reactivation of AR-signaling due to CDK9-mediated serine-81 phosphorylation of AR, with a consequent increase in sensitivity to CDK9 inhibitors and enzalutamide in BETi resistant cells. Additionally, increased DNA damage associated with PRC2-mediated transcriptional silencing of DNA damage response (DDR) genes was observed due to the loss of BRD4 from their proximal promoter regions in the resistant cells, leading to PARP inhibitor sensitivity. Collectively, our results identify the therapeutic limitation of BETi as a monotherapy in CRPC. However, data showing the reactivation of AR-signaling and increased DNA damage in the BETi resistant cells provide unique opportunities for combination therapies in managing CRPC.

Response and resistance to BET bromodomain inhibitors in triple negative breast cancer [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a heterogeneous and clinically aggressive disease for which there is no targeted therapy. Here we report the preferential and high sensitivity of TNBCs to BET bromodomain inhibitors such as JQ1 manifested by cell cycle arrest in early G1, apoptosis, and induction of markers of luminal epithelial differentiation in vitro and in vivo. The sensitivity of TNBC and other tumor types to BET inhibition establishes a rationale for clinical investigation, and a motivation to understand mechanisms of resistance. After engendering acquired resistance to BET inhibition in previously sensitive TNBCs, we utilized integrative approaches to identify a unique mechanism of epigenomic resistance to this epigenetic therapy. Resistant cells remain dependent on BRD4, confirmed by RNA interference. However, TNBC cells adapt to BET bromodomain inhibition by re-recruitment of unmutated BRD4 to super-enhancers, now in a bromodomain-independent manner. Proteomic studies of resistant TNBC identify hyper-phosphorylation of BRD4 and strong association with MED1. Together, these studies provide a rationale for BET inhibition in TNBC and argue for combination strategies to anticipate clinical drug resistance.
