Double-barreled gun: Combination of PARP inhibitor with conventional chemotherapy.

ABSTRACT: DNA repair pathways are evolutionarily conserved molecular mechanisms that maintain the integrity of genomic DNA. In cancer therapies, the integrity and activity of DNA repair pathways predict therapy resistance and disease outcome. Members of the poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) family initiate and organize the biologic process of DNA repair, which counteracts many types of chemotherapies. Since the first development in approximately 3 decades ago, PARP inhibitors have greatly changed the concept of cancer therapy, leading to encouraging improvements in tumor suppression and disease outcomes. Here we summaries both pre-clinical and clinical findings of PARP inhibitors applications, particularly for combination therapies.

Preclinical evaluation of the PARP inhibitor, olaparib, in combination with cytotoxic chemotherapy in pediatric solid tumors.

Project description:BackgroundPoly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) signals DNA damage and facilitates DNA repair. PARP inhibitors are being evaluated in cancers with defective DNA repair mechanisms or in combination with cytotoxic therapy or radiation. We evaluated the PARP inhibitor, olaparib, in combination with chemotherapy using in vitro and in vivo pediatric solid tumor models.ProcedureThe IC50 of olaparib alone and in combination with cytotoxic agents was determined in 10 pediatric solid tumor cell lines. Synergy was assessed using the combination index of Chou-Talalay. Olaparib alone and in combination with topotecan/cyclophosphamide was evaluated in xenograft models of Ewing sarcoma (RD-ES) and neuroblastoma (NGP). PAR activity was evaluated in cell lines and tumor lysates.ResultsOlaparib induced growth inhibition, median (range) IC50 = 3.6 (1-33.8) µM, and inhibited PAR activity in pediatric solid tumor cell lines. The addition of olaparib to DNA damaging agents resulted in additive to synergistic interactions. In RD-ES and NGP xenografts, olaparib inhibited PAR activity by 88-100% as a single agent and 100% when administered with cyclophosphamide/topotecan. Although the addition of olaparib did not antagonize the activity of cyclophosphamide/topotecan, clear evidence of synergy could not be demonstrated.ConclusionsIn pediatric solid tumor cell lines, clinically achievable concentrations of single agent olaparib caused growth inhibition. Although the in vitro data demonstrated synergistic efficacy of olaparib when added to the camptothecins and alkylating agents, synergy was not discernible in vivo. Clinical trials of PARP inhibitors in combination DNA damaging agents are necessary to establish the role of PARP inhibitors in childhood cancer.

Combination Treatment Strategies to Overcome PARP Inhibitor Resistance.

Project description:Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) enzymes have been shown to be essential for DNA repair pathways, including homologous recombination repair (HRR). Cancers with HRR defects (e.g., BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations) are targets for PARP inhibitors (PARPis) based on the exploitation of "synthetic lethality". As a result, PARPis offer a promising treatment option for advanced ovarian and breast cancers with deficiencies in HRR. However, acquired resistance to PARPis has been reported for most tumors, and not all patients with BRCA1/2 mutations respond to PARPis. Therefore, the formulation of effective treatment strategies to overcome resistance to PARPis is urgently necessary. This review summarizes the molecular mechanism of therapeutic action and resistance to PARPis, in addition to emerging combination treatment options involving PARPis.

Gated Single-Molecule Transport in Double-Barreled Nanopores.

Project description:Single-molecule methods have been rapidly developing with the appealing prospect of transforming conventional ensemble-averaged analytical techniques. However, challenges remain especially in improving detection sensitivity and controlling molecular transport. In this article, we present a direct method for the fabrication of analytical sensors that combine the advantages of nanopores and field-effect transistors for simultaneous label-free single-molecule detection and manipulation. We show that these hybrid sensors have perfectly aligned nanopores and field-effect transistor components making it possible to detect molecular events with up to near 100% synchronization. Furthermore, we show that the transport across the nanopore can be voltage-gated to switch on/off translocations in real time. Finally, surface functionalization of the gate electrode can also be used to fine tune transport properties enabling more active control over the translocation velocity and capture rates.

The role of PARP inhibitor combination therapy in ovarian cancer.

Project description:The use of PARP inhibitors (PARPi) has transformed the care of advanced high-grade serous/endometrioid ovarian cancer. PARPi are now available to patients in both the first-line and recurrent platinum-sensitive disease settings; therefore, most patients will receive PARPi at some point in their treatment pathway. The majority of this expanding population of patients eventually acquire resistance to PARPi, in addition to those with primary PARPi resistance. We discuss the rationale behind developing combination therapies, to work synergistically with PARPi and overcome mechanisms of resistance to restore drug sensitivity, and clinical evidence of their efficacy to date.

Combination of PARP inhibitor and temozolomide to suppress chordoma progression.

Project description:Chordoma, a malignant bone cancer, is highly resistant to conventional therapeutic approaches; this greatly limits radio- and chemotherapeutic options and disease management. In the present study, we investigated three patient-derived chordoma cell lines to elucidate the molecular mechanism of resistance to therapeutics. An in vitro high-throughput chemical screening assay and an in vivo xenograft model were used to identify novel chemosensitizers for chordoma. We found that patient-derived chordoma cell lines recapitulated disease phenotypes, which were highlighted by robust resistance to medical therapy manifested as lack of DNA damage accumulation. Mechanistically, the PARP DNA repair pathway was found to play a central role in this resistance. Chemical screening confirmed that PARP inhibitors could strikingly enhance temozolomide (TMZ) therapy in chordoma cells. Combining the FDA-approved PARP inhibitor, olaparib, with chemotherapeutics not only potentiated DNA damage accumulation, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis in vitro but also suppressed chordoma xenograft expansion in vivo. We conclude that combining PARP inhibition with TMZ could be an effective therapeutic approach for the clinical management of chordoma. KEY MESSAGES: The PARP DNA repair pathway enhances chemoresistance in chordoma cells. Combining PARP inhibitors with genotoxic agents induces chordoma cell cytotoxicity. PARP inhibitor combining with temozolomide suppresses growth of chordoma in vivo.

PARP Inhibitor Resistance Mechanisms and Implications for Post-Progression Combination Therapies.

Project description:The use of PARP inhibitors (PARPi) is growing widely as FDA approvals have shifted its use from the recurrence setting to the frontline setting. In parallel, the population developing PARPi resistance is increasing. Here we review the role of PARP, DNA damage repair, and synthetic lethality. We discuss mechanisms of resistance to PARP inhibition and how this informs on novel combinations to re-sensitize cancer cells to PARPi.

Mechanistic signs of double-barreled structure in a fluoride ion channel.

Project description:The Fluc family of F(-) ion channels protects prokaryotes and lower eukaryotes from the toxicity of environmental F(-). In bacteria, these channels are built as dual-topology dimers whereby the two subunits assemble in antiparallel transmembrane orientation. Recent crystal structures suggested that Fluc channels contain two separate ion-conduction pathways, each with two F(-) binding sites, but no functional correlates of this unusual architecture have been reported. Experiments here fill this gap by examining the consequences of mutating two conserved F(-)-coordinating phenylalanine residues. Substitution of each phenylalanine specifically extinguishes its associated F(-) binding site in crystal structures and concomitantly inhibits F(-) permeation. Functional analysis of concatemeric channels, which permit mutagenic manipulation of individual pores, show that each pore can be separately inactivated without blocking F(-) conduction through its symmetry-related twin. The results strongly support dual-pathway architecture of Fluc channels.

Double-Barreled CRISPR Technology as a Novel Treatment Strategy For COVID-19.

Project description:Coronavirus is one of the causative agents for multiple human respiratory illnesses. A novel coronavirus, similar to the one that caused severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in 2003, was identified as the cause of the current pandemic of coronavirus disease (COVID-19), which was first reported in late December 2019 in Wuhan, China. Since then, this novel coronavirus has spread across the globe, with most identified COVID-19 cases and fatalities occurring in the United States. In this Perspective, we discuss coronavirus pathogenicity, conventional antiviral therapies, prophylactic strategies, and novel treatment strategies for COVID-19. We highlight the application of CRISPR technology as an emerging pan-antiviral therapy. We also discuss the challenges of in vivo delivery of CRISPR components and propose novel approaches to achieve selective delivery exclusively into SARS-CoV-2-infected cells with high efficiency by hijacking the surface proteins of SARS-CoV-2.

A Quantitative Chemotherapy Genetic Interaction Map Reveals Factors Associated with PARP Inhibitor Resistance.

Project description:Chemotherapy is used to treat most cancer patients, yet our understanding of factors that dictate response and resistance to such drugs remains limited. We report the generation of a quantitative chemical-genetic interaction map in human mammary epithelial cells charting the impact of the knockdown of 625 genes related to cancer and DNA repair on sensitivity to 29 drugs, covering all classes of chemotherapy. This quantitative map is predictive of interactions maintained in other cell lines, identifies DNA-repair factors, predicts cancer cell line responses to therapy, and prioritizes synergistic drug combinations. We identify that ARID1A loss confers resistance to PARP inhibitors in cells and ovarian cancer patients and that loss of GPBP1 causes resistance to cisplatin and PARP inhibitors through the regulation of genes involved in homologous recombination. This map helps navigate patient genomic data and optimize chemotherapeutic regimens by delineating factors involved in the response to specific types of DNA damage.

Strategic Combination of DNA-Damaging Agent and PARP Inhibitor Results in Enhanced Cytotoxicity.

Project description:PARP inhibitors (PARPi) are under clinical trial for combination cancer chemotherapy. In the presence of a PARPi, PARP-1 binds DNA strand breaks but cannot produce poly(ADP-ribose) polymers or undergo auto-poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation. DNA binding is persistent, hindering DNA repair. Methylated bases formed as a result of cellular exposure to DNA-methylating agents are repaired by DNA polymerase β (pol β)-dependent base excision repair (BER) producing a 5'-deoxyribose phosphate (5'-dRP) repair intermediate. PARP-1 binds and is activated by the 5'-dRP, and PARPi-mediated sensitization to methylating agents is considerable, especially in pol β-deficient cells. Cells deficient in the BER factor XRCC1 are less sensitized by PARPi than are wild-type cells. PARPi sensitization is reduced in cells expressing forms of XRCC1 deficient in interaction with either pol β or PARP-1. In contrast, agents producing oxidative DNA damage and 3'- rather than 5'-repair intermediates are modestly PARPi sensitized. We summarize PARPi experiments in mouse fibroblasts and confirm the importance of the 5'-dRP repair intermediate and functional pol β and XRCC1 proteins. Understanding the chemistry of repair is key to enhancing the clinical success of PARPi.
