Expression data from human adrenocortical H295R cells expressing a doxycyclin-inducible shRNA targeting CTNNB1

ABSTRACT: We used the H295R cell line, human adrenocortical cells, harboring a heterozygous CTNNB1 (beta-catenin) gene mutation affecting the GSK3 beta-phosphorylation site (S45P) and leading to constitutive transcriptional activity of beta-catenin-LEF/TCF. Whole-transcript gene expression was analyzed in three stable clones of H295R cells expressing a doxycycline-inducible shRNA targeting CTNNB1 mRNA and in a control clone, without or with doxycycline for 5 days.

Adrenocortical cancer (ACC) is a very aggressive tumor, and genomics studies demonstrate that the most frequent alterations of driver genes in these cancers activate the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. However, the adrenal-specific targets of oncogenic β-catenin-mediating tumorigenesis have not being established. A combined transcriptomic analysis from two series of human tumors and the human ACC cell line H295R harboring a spontaneous β-catenin activating mutation was done to identify the Wnt/ ...[more]

Project description:Background & Aims: Patients with beta-catenin (encoded by CTNNB1)-mutated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have demonstrated limited clinical benefit to first-line immunotherapy (IO). Animal models of HCC expressing mutant-beta-catenin and additional aberrations via hydrodynamic tail vein injection with sleeping beauty transposon/transposase (SB-HDTVI) represent clinically relevant human HCC subsets. Here, we perform transcriptomic analysis on multiple beta-catenin-mutated and non-mutated HCC animal models to identify Mutated beta-catenin Gene Signature (MBGS) for HCC patient stratification for CTNNB1-mutations and IO response. Methods: We co-expressed in mice mutant-NFE2L2 and hMET +- mutant-CTNNB1 via SB-HDTVI and monitored for HCC development. Bulk RNA-sequencing was assessed for transcriptional differences between various beta-catenin-mutated and non-mutated models. MBGS was generated for predictive ability of CTNNB1 mutations and IO resistance in multiple HCC patient cohorts. Results: Co-expression of S45Y-beta-catenin + G31A-NFE2L2 + hMet (beta-N-M) resulted in HCC development by 4.5 weeks while co-expression of G31A-NFE2L2 + hMet (N-M) led to HCC by 14 weeks with tumors being positive for expected targets by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Bulk RNA-sequencing comparing beta-catenin-driven versus non-beta-catenin driven models yielded 95 common upregulated genes. Differential gene expression analysis of the common genes comparing CTNNB1-mutated vs non-mutated TCGA patients narrowed the gene panel to 13-(or 10-) genes. This MBGS predicted CTNNB1-mutation status in TCGA (n=374) and French (n=398) patient cohorts (with ROC AUC of 0.90 and 0.94). High MBGS expression was also associated with no overall and progression-free survival benefit when comparing atezolizumab + bevacizumab versus sorafenib arms in IMbrave150 cohort implying fewer treatment effects. Conclusions: In an era of patient molecular stratification for HCC, MBGS may aid in optimally selecting patients for IO through diagnosis of a molecular subset which lacks optimal response.

Project description:Stable activation of the WNT signaling effector beta-catenin (CTNNB1(ex3) in ovarian granulosa cells results in the formation of premalignant lesions that develop into granulosa cell tumors (GCTs) spontaneously later in life. Loss of the tumor suppressor gene Pten accelerates GCT formation in the CTNNB1 strain. Conversely, expression of oncogenic KRASG12D causes the dramatic arrest of proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis in granulosa cells, and consequently, small abnormal follicle-like structures devoid of oocytes accumulate in the ovary. Because of the potent anti-proliferative effects of KRASG12D in granulosa cells, we sought to determine if KRASG12D would block precancerous lesion and tumor formation in follicles of the CTNNB1 mutant mice. Unexpectedly, transgenic Ctnnb1;Kras mutant mice developed early-onset GCTs leading to premature death in a manner similar to theCtnnb1;Pten mutant mice. Moreover, the GCTs in the Ctnnb1;Kras mutant mice exhibited increased GC proliferation, decreased apoptosis and impaired differentiation. Microarray and RT-PCR analyses revealed that ovaries from mice expressing dominant-stable CTNNB1 with either Pten loss or KRAS activation were unpredictably similar. Specifically, gene regulatory processes induced by CTNNB1 were mostly enhanced by either KRAS activation or Pten loss in remarkably similar patterns and degree. Furthermore, the concomitant activation of CTNNB1 and KRAS in Sertoli cells resulted in the development of granulosa cell tumors of the testis. RT-PCR studies showed a partial overlap in gene regulatory processes associated with tumor development in the ovary and testis. Together, these results suggest that KRAS activation and Pten loss induce GCT development from premalignant lesions via highly similar molecular mechanisms. four samples: average of two wild type samples (previously submitted as GSM403220 and GSM403221), beta-Catenin constitutively active mutant, beta-Catenin;Pten double mutant, and beta-Catenin;Kras(G12D) double mutant
