ABCC4 Is a Determinant of Cytarabine-Induced Cytotoxicity and Myelosuppression.

ABSTRACT: Resistance to cytarabine remains a major challenge in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Based on previous studies implicating ABCC4/MRP4 in the transport of nucleosides, we hypothesized that cytarabine is sensitive to ABCC4-mediated efflux, thereby decreasing its cytotoxic response against AML blasts. The uptake of cytarabine and its monophosphate metabolite was found to be facilitated in ABCC4-expressing vesicles and intracellular retention was significantly impaired by overexpression of human ABCC4 or mouse Abcc4 (P < 0.05). ABCC4 was expressed highly in AML primary blasts and cell lines, and cytotoxicity of cytarabine in cells was increased in the presence of the ABCC4 inhibitors MK571 or sorafenib, as well as after ABCC4 siRNA. In Abcc4-null mice, cytarabine-induced hematological toxicity was enhanced and ex vivo colony-forming assays showed that Abcc4-deficiency sensitized myeloid progenitors to cytarabine. Collectively, these studies demonstrate that ABCC4 plays a protective role against cytarabine-mediated insults in leukemic and host myeloid cells.

Mathematical models for cytarabine-derived myelosuppression in acute myeloid leukaemia.

Project description:We investigate the personalisation and prediction accuracy of mathematical models for white blood cell (WBC) count dynamics during consolidation treatment using intermediate or high-dose cytarabine (Ara-C) in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). Ara-C is the clinically most relevant cytotoxic agent for AML treatment. We extend a mathematical model of myelosuppression and a pharmacokinetic model of Ara-C with different hypotheses of Ara-C's pharmacodynamic effects. We cross-validate the 12 model variations using dense WBC count measurements from 23 AML patients. Surprisingly, the prediction accuracy remains satisfactory in each of the models despite different modelling hypotheses. Therefore, we compare average clinical and calculated WBC recovery times for different Ara-C schedules as a successful methodology for model discrimination. As a result, a new hypothesis of a secondary pharmacodynamic effect on the proliferation rate seems plausible. Furthermore, we demonstrate the impact of treatment timing on subsequent nadir values based on personalised predictions as a possibility for influencing/controlling myelosuppression.

ABCC4 impacts megakaryopoiesis and protects megakaryocytes against 6-mercaptopurine induced cytotoxicity [RNA-seq Mouse]

Project description:The role of ABCC4, an ATP-binding cassette transporter, in the process of platelet formation, megakaryopoiesis, is unknown. Here, we show that ABCC4 is highly expressed in megakaryocytes (MKs). Mining of public genomic data (ATAC-seq and genome wide chromatin interactions, Hi-C) revealed that key megakaryopoiesis transcription factors (TFs) interacted with ABCC4 regulatory elements and likely accounted for high ABCC4 expression in MKs. Importantly these genomic interactions for ABCC4 ranked higher than for genes with known roles in megakaryopoiesis suggesting a role for ABCC4 in megakaryopoiesis. We then demonstrate that ABCC4 is required for optimal platelet formation as in vitro differentiation of fetal liver derived MKs from Abcc4-/- mice exhibited impaired proplatelet formation and polyploidization, features required for optimal megakaryopoiesis. Likewise, a human megakaryoblastic cell line, MEG-01 showed that acute ABCC4 inhibition markedly suppressed key processes in megakaryopoiesis and that these effects were related to reduced cAMP export and enhanced dissociation of a negative regulator of megakaryopoiesis, protein kinase A (PKA) from ABCC4. PKA activity concomitantly increased after ABCC4 inhibition which was coupled with significantly reduced GATA-1 expression, a TF needed for optimal megakaryopoiesis. Further, ABCC4 protected MKs from 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) as Abcc4-/- mice show a profound reduction in MKs after 6-MP treatment. In total, our studies show that ABCC4 not only protects the MKs but is also required for maximal platelet production from MKs, suggesting modulation of ABCC4 function might be a potential therapeutic strategy to regulate platelet production.

Multidrug transporter MRP4/ABCC4 as a key determinant of pancreatic cancer aggressiveness.

Project description:Recent findings show that MRP4 is critical for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cell proliferation. Nevertheless, the significance of MRP4 protein levels and function in PDAC progression is still unclear. The aim of this study was to determine the role of MRP4 in PDAC tumor aggressiveness. Bioinformatic studies revealed that PDAC samples show higher MRP4 transcript levels compared to normal adjacent pancreatic tissue and circulating tumor cells express higher levels of MRP4 than primary tumors. Also, high levels of MRP4 are typical of high-grade PDAC cell lines and associate with an epithelial-mesenchymal phenotype. Moreover, PDAC patients with high levels of MRP4 depict dysregulation of pathways associated with migration, chemotaxis and cell adhesion. Silencing MRP4 in PANC1 cells reduced tumorigenicity and tumor growth and impaired cell migration. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that MRP4 silencing alters PANC1 gene expression, mainly dysregulating pathways related to cell-to-cell interactions and focal adhesion. Contrarily, MRP4 overexpression significantly increased BxPC-3 growth rate, produced a switch in the expression of EMT markers, and enhanced experimental metastatic incidence. Altogether, our results indicate that MRP4 is associated with a more aggressive phenotype in PDAC, boosting pancreatic tumorigenesis and metastatic capacity, which could finally determine a fast tumor progression in PDAC patients.

Population-specific genetic variants important in susceptibility to cytarabine arabinoside cytotoxicity.

Project description:Cytarabine arabinoside (ara-C) is an antimetabolite used to treat hematologic malignancies. Resistance is a common reason for treatment failure with adverse side effects contributing to morbidity and mortality. Identification of genetic factors important in susceptibility to ara-C cytotoxicity may allow for individualization of treatment. We used an unbiased whole-genome approach using lymphoblastoid cell lines derived from persons of European (CEU) or African (YRI) ancestry to identify these genetic factors. We interrogated more than 2 million single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for association with susceptibility to ara-C and narrowed our focus by concentrating on SNPs that affected gene expression. We identified a unique pharmacogenetic signature consisting of 4 SNPs explaining 51% of the variability in sensitivity to ara-C among the CEU and 5 SNPs explaining 58% of the variation among the YRI. Population-specific signatures were secondary to either (1) polymorphic SNPs in one population but monomorphic in the other, or (2) significant associations of SNPs with cytotoxicity or gene expression in one population but not the other. We validated the gene expression-cytotoxicity relationship for a subset of genes in a separate group of lymphoblastoid cell lines. These unique genetic signatures comprise novel genes that can now be studied further in functional studies.

Translational Modeling of Drug-Induced Myelosuppression and Effect of Pretreatment Myelosuppression for AZD5153, a Selective BRD4 Inhibitor.

Project description:In this work, we evaluate the potential risk of thrombocytopenia in man for a BRD4 inhibitor, AZD5153, based on the platelet count decreases from a Han Wistar rat study. The effects in rat were modeled and used to make clinical predictions for human populations with healthy baseline blood counts. At doses >10 mg, a dose-dependent effect on circulating platelets is expected, with similar predicted changes for both q.d. and b.i.d. dose schedules. These results suggest that at predicted efficacious doses, AZD5153 is likely to have some reductions in the clinical platelet counts, but within the normal range at projected efficacious doses. The model was then extended to incorporate preexisting myelosuppression where bone marrow function is inhibited by acute myeloid leukemia. Under these conditions, duration of platelet count recovery has the potential to be prolonged due to drug-induced myelosuppression.

Enhancer mutations modulate the severity of chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression.

Project description:Non-small cell lung cancer is often diagnosed at advanced stages, and many patients are still treated with classical chemotherapy. The unselective nature of chemotherapy often results in severe myelosuppression. Previous studies showed that protein-coding mutations could not fully explain the predisposition to myelosuppression. Here, we investigate the possible role of enhancer mutations in myelosuppression susceptibility. We produced transcriptome and promoter-interaction maps (using HiCap) of three blood stem-like cell lines treated with carboplatin or gemcitabine. Taking advantage of publicly available enhancer datasets, we validated HiCap results in silico and in living cells using epigenetic CRISPR technology. We also developed a network approach for interactome analysis and detection of differentially interacting genes. Differential interaction analysis provided additional information on relevant genes and pathways for myelosuppression compared with differential gene expression analysis at the bulk level. Moreover, we showed that enhancers of differentially interacting genes are highly enriched for variants associated with differing levels of myelosuppression. Altogether, our work represents a prominent example of integrative transcriptome and gene regulatory datasets analysis for the functional annotation of noncoding mutations.

CDK4/6 Inhibitor PD 0332991 Sensitizes Acute Myeloid Leukemia to Cytarabine-Mediated Cytotoxicity.

Project description:Cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK)4 and CDK6 are frequently overexpressed or hyperactivated in human cancers. Targeting CDK4/CDK6 in combination with cytotoxic killing therefore represents a rational approach to cancer therapy. By selective inhibition of CDK4/CDK6 with PD 0332991, which leads to early G1 arrest and synchronous S-phase entry upon release of the G1 block, we have developed a novel strategy to prime acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells for cytotoxic killing by cytarabine (Ara-C). This sensitization is achieved in part through enrichment of S-phase cells, which maximizes the AML populations for Ara-C incorporation into replicating DNA to elicit DNA damage. Moreover, PD 0332991 triggered apoptosis of AML cells through inhibition of the homeobox (HOX)A9 oncogene expression, reducing the transcription of its target PIM1. Reduced PIM1 synthesis attenuates PIM1-mediated phosphorylation of the proapoptotic BAD and activates BAD-dependent apoptosis. In vivo, timely inhibition of CDK4/CDK6 by PD 0332991 and release profoundly suppresses tumor growth in response to reduced doses of Ara-C in a xenograft AML model. Collectively, these data suggest selective and reversible inhibition of CDK4/CDK6 as an effective means to enhance Ara-C killing of AML cells at reduced doses, which has implications for the treatment of elderly AML patients who are unable to tolerate high-dose Ara-C therapy.
