TP53 gain-of-function mutation promotes inflammation in glioblastoma.

ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma (GBM), the most severe and common brain tumor in adults, is characterized by multiple somatic mutations and aberrant activation of inflammatory responses. Immune cell infiltration and subsequent inflammation cause tumor growth and resistance to therapy. Somatic loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding tumor suppressor protein p53 (TP53) are frequently observed in various cancers. However, numerous studies suggest that TP53 regulates malignant phenotypes by gain-of-function (GOF) mutations. Here we demonstrate that a TP53 GOF mutation promotes inflammation in GBM. Ectopic expression of a TP53 GOF mutant induced transcriptomic changes, which resulted in enrichment of gene signatures related to inflammation and chemotaxis. Bioinformatics analyses revealed that a gene signature, upregulated by the TP53 GOF mutation, is associated with progression and shorter overall survival in GBM. We also observed significant correlations between the TP53 GOF mutation signature and inflammation in the clinical database of GBM and other cancers. The TP53 GOF mutant showed upregulated C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFA) expression via nuclear factor kappa B (NF?B) signaling, consequently increasing microglia and monocyte-derived immune cell infiltration. Additionally, TP53 GOF mutation and CCL2 and TNFA expression correlated positively with tumor-associated immunity in patients with GBM. Taken together, our findings suggest that the TP53 GOF mutation plays a crucial role in inflammatory responses, thereby deteriorating prognostic outcomes in patients with GBM.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough the molecular features of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) have been well described, the impact of detailed gene mutation subtypes on disease progression remained unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of different TP53 mutation subtypes on clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with PDAC.MethodsWe included 639 patients treated with PDAC in Ruijin Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine between Jan 2019 and Jun 2021. The genomic alterations of PDAC were analyzed, and the association of TP53 mutation subtypes and other core gene pathway alterations with patients' clinical characteristics were evaluated by Chi-squared test, Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression model.ResultsTP53 missense mutation was significantly associated with poor differentiation in KRASmut PDAC (50.7% vs. 36.1%, P = 0.001). In small-sized (≤ 2 cm) KRASmut tumors, significantly higher LNs involvement (54.8% vs. 23.5%, P = 0.010) and distal metastic rate (20.5% vs. 2.9%, P = 0.030) were observed in those with TP53 missense mutation instead of truncating mutation. Compared with TP53 truncating mutation, missense mutation was significantly associated with reduced DFS (6.6 [5.6-7.6] vs. 9.2 [5.2-13.3] months, HR 0.368 [0.200-0.677], P = 0.005) and OS (9.6 [8.0-11.1] vs. 18.3 [6.7-30.0] months, HR 0.457 [0.248-0.842], P = 0.012) in patients who failed to receive chemotherapy, while higher OS (24.2 [20.8-27.7] vs. 23.8 [19.0-28.5] months, HR 1.461 [1.005-2.124], P = 0.047) was observed in TP53missense cases after chemotherapy.ConclusionsTP53 missense mutation was associated with poor tumor differentiation, and revealed gain-of-function properties in small-sized KRAS transformed PDAC. Nonetheless, it was not associated with insensitivity to chemotherapy, highlighting the neoadjuvant therapy before surgery as the potential optimized strategy for the treatment of a subset of patients.

Project description:Mutations in the genes encoding for voltage-gated sodium channels cause profound sensory disturbances and other symptoms dependent on the distribution of a particular channel subtype in different organs. Humans with the gain-of-function mutation p.Leu811Pro in SCN11A (encoding for the voltage-gated Nav1.9 channel) exhibit congenital insensitivity to pain, pruritus, self-inflicted injuries, slow healing wounds, muscle weakness, Charcot-like arthropathies, and intestinal dysmotility. As already shown, knock-in mice (Scn11a+/L799P) carrying the orthologous mutation p.Leu799Pro replicate reduced pain sensitivity and show frequent tissue lesions. In the present study we explored whether Scn11a+/L799P mice develop also pruritus, muscle weakness, and changes in gastrointestinal transit time. Furthermore, we analyzed morphological and functional differences in nerves, skeletal muscle, joints and small intestine from Scn11a+/L799P and Scn11a+/+ wild type mice. Compared to Scn11a+/+ mice, Scn11a+/L799P mice showed enhanced scratching bouts before skin lesions developed, indicating pruritus. Scn11a+/L799P mice exhibited reduced grip strength, but no disturbances in motor coordination. Skeletal muscle fiber types and joint architecture were unaltered in Scn11a+/L799P mice. Their gastrointestinal transit time was unaltered. The small intestine from Scn11a+/L799P showed a small shift towards less frequent peristaltic movements. Similar proportions of lumbar dorsal root ganglion neurons from Scn11a+/L799P and Scn11a+/+ mice were calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP-) positive, but isolated sciatic nerves from Scn11a+/L799P mice exhibited a significant reduction of the capsaicin-evoked release of CGRP indicating reduced neurogenic inflammation. These data indicate important Nav1.9 channel functions in several organs in both humans and mice. They support the pathophysiological relevance of increased basal activity of Nav1.9 channels for sensory abnormalities (pain and itch) and suggest resulting malfunctions of the motor system and of the gastrointestinal tract. Scn11a+/L799P mice are suitable to investigate the role of Nav1.9, and to explore the pathophysiological changes and mechanisms which develop as a consequence of Nav1.9 hyperactivity.

Project description:ObjectiveSH3BP2 is a signaling adapter protein which regulates immune and skeletal systems. Gain-of-function mutations in SH3BP2 cause cherubism, characterized by jawbone destruction. This study was aimed to examine the role of SH3BP2 in inflammatory bone loss using a collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) model.MethodsCIA was induced in wild-type (Sh3bp2(+/+)) and heterozygous P416R SH3BP2 cherubism mutant knock-in (Sh3bp2(KI/+)) mice, an SH3BP2 gain-of-function model. Severity of the arthritis was determined by assessing the paw swelling and histological analyses of the joints. Micro-CT analysis was used to determine the levels of bone loss. Inflammation and osteoclastogenesis in the joints were evaluated by quantitating the gene expression of inflammatory cytokines and osteoclast markers. Furthermore, involvement of the T- and B-cell responses was determined by draining lymph node cell culture and measurement of the serum anti-mouse type II collagen antibody levels, respectively. Finally, roles of the SH3BP2 mutation in macrophage activation and osteoclastogenesis were determined by evaluating the TNF-? production levels and osteoclast formation in bone marrow-derived M-CSF-dependent macrophage (BMM) cultures.ResultsSh3bp2(KI/+) mice exhibited more severe inflammation and bone loss, accompanying an increased number of osteoclasts. The mRNA levels for TNF-? and osteoclast marker genes were higher in the joints of Sh3bp2(KI/+) mice. Lymph node cell culture showed that lymphocyte proliferation and IFN-? and IL-17 production were comparable between Sh3bp2(+/+) and Sh3bp2(KI/+) cells. Serum anti-type II collagen antibody levels were comparable between Sh3bp2(+/+) and Sh3bp2(KI/+) mice. In vitro experiments showed that TNF-? production in Sh3bp2(KI/+) BMMs is elevated compared with Sh3bp2(+/+) BMMs and that RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis is enhanced in Sh3bp2(KI/+) BMMs associated with increased NFATc1 nuclear localization.ConclusionGain-of-function of SH3BP2 augments inflammation and bone loss in the CIA model through increased macrophage activation and osteoclast formation. Therefore, modulation of the SH3BP2 expression may have therapeutic potential for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
