Promiscuous targeting of bromodomains by Bromosporine identifies BET proteins as master regulators of primary transcription response in leukemia [set 1]

ABSTRACT: Bromodomains (BRDs) have emerged as compelling targets for cancer therapy. The development of selective and potent BET inhibitors and their significant activity in diverse tumor models has rapidly translated into clinical studies and has motivated drug development efforts targeting non-BET BRDs. However, the complex multidomain/subunit architecture of bromodomain protein complexes complicates predictions of consequences of their pharmacological targeting. To address this issue we developed a promiscuous bromodomain inhibitor (bromosporine, BSP) that broadly targets BRDs (including BETs) with nanomolar affinity, creating a tool for the identification of cellular processes and diseases where BRDs have a regulatory function. As a proof of principle we studied the effect of BSP in leukemic cell-lines known to be sensitive to BET inhibition and found as expected strong anti-proliferative activity. Comparison of the modulation of transcriptional profiles by BSP at short inhibitor exposure resulted in a BET inhibitor signature but no significant additional changes in transcription that could account for inhibition of other BRDs. Thus, non-selective targeting of BRDs identified BETs, but not other BRDs, as master regulators of a context dependent primary transcription response. Cells were seeded the day prior to treatment at 2x10^5 per ml. Treatments were performed so that a final concentration of 0.1 % DMSO (Cat.#D1435; Sigma) was achieved and cells were incubated with DMSO or 500 nM test compound (BSP or JQ1) for 6 h prior to isolation of RNA. Total RNA was isolated using a standard TRIzol (Invitrogen) protocol and prepared using RNeasy columns (Cat.#74106 plus; Qiagen). RNA was quantified using a Nanodrop spectrophotometer (model ND1000; Thermo Fisher) and integrity assessed on a BioAnalyzer (2100; Agilent Laboratories, USA). All samples had a RNA Integrity Number (RIN) â?¥ 9. Biological triplicates were performed for each condition tested.

Project description:Bromodomains have emerged as attractive candidates for the development of inhibitors targeting gene transcription. Inhibitors of the bromo-and-extra-terminal (BET) family recently showed promising activity in diverse disease models. However, the pleiotropic nature of BET proteins regulating tissue specific transcription has raised safety concerns and suggested that attempts should be made for domain-specific targeting. Here we report that RVX-208, a compound currently in phase II clinical trials, is a BET bromodomain inhibitor specific for second bromodomains (BD2). Co-crystal structures revealed binding modes of RVX-208 and its synthetic precursor and fluorescent recovery after photobleaching demonstrated that RVX-208 displaces BET proteins from chromatin. However, gene expression data showed that BD2 inhibition only modestly affects BET-dependent gene transcription. Our data demonstrate the feasibility of specific targeting within the BET family resulting in different transcriptional outcomes and highlight the importance of BD1 in transcriptional regulation HepG2 Cells were treated with eitther DMSO or 0.5uM JQ1 or 5uM RVX-208. Three samples per condition, total of nine samples. Inhbitor treatment was carried out for 4h before RNA was extracted. HepG2 cells (ATCC: HB-8065) were maintained in M-NM-1-MEM (Cat.#BE12-169F; BioWhittaker) supplemented with 10 % heat-inactivated foetal calf serum (PAA #A15-152), non-essential amino acids (Cat. #M7145; Sigma), glutamine (Cat.#M11-004; PAA), and vitamins (Cat.#M6895; Sigma). Cells were grown at 37 M-BM-0C in a humidified cabinet at 5 % CO2 (Heraeus Function Line). For experiments, cells were seeded the day prior to treatment at 2x105/ml. Treatments were performed for 4 h so that a final concentration of 0.1 % DMSO (Cat.#D1435; Sigma) was achieved. At harvest, cells were washed once with PBS (Cat.#H15-002; PAA), and lysed in situ using RLT buffer supplemented with 10 M-NM-<l/ml M-NM-2-mercaptoethanol (Cat.#M7522; Sigma). Total RNA was extracted and prepared using RNeasy columns (Cat.#74106 plus; Qiagen) including a Qia shredding step (Cat.#79656; Qiagen) and an on-column DNAse digestion (Cat.#EN0521; Fermentas), according to the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions. The resulting RNA was quantified and quality controlled using a Nanodrop spectrophotometer (model ND1000; Thermo Fisher). RNA integrity was assessed on a BioAnalyzer (model G2938C; Agilent Laboratories, USA) and all samples had a RNA Integrity Number (RIN) M-bM-^IM-% 9. Labelled sense ssDNA for hybridization was generated from 200 ng starting RNA with the Ambion WT expression kit (Cat.#4411973; Ambion) and the Affymetrix GeneChip WT Terminal Labelling and Controls Kit (Cat.#901525; Affymetrix) according to the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions. The distribution of fragmented sense ssDNA lengths was measured on the BioAnalyser. The fragmented ssDNA was labelled and hybridized for 17 hours at 45 M-BM-0C on the Affymetrix GeneChip Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (Affymetrix). Chips were processed on an Affymetrix GeneChip Fluidics Station 450 and Scanner 3000 and the affymetrix Command Console (v.3.2.4; Affymetrix) was used to generate CEL files.
