Dissecting phenotypic responses of the druggable targetome in cancers.

ABSTRACT: Although a large amount of screening data comprising target genes and/or drugs tested against cancer cell line panels are available, different assay conditions and readouts limit the integrated analysis and batch-to-batch comparison of these data. Here, we systematically produced and analyzed the anticancer effect of the druggable targetome to understand the varied phenotypic outcomes of diverse functional classes of target genes. A library of siRNAs targeting ~4,800 druggable genes was screened against cancer cell lines under 2D and/or 3D assay conditions. The anticancer effect was simultaneously measured by quantifying cell proliferation and/or viability. Hit rates varied significantly depending on assay conditions and/or phenotypic readouts. Functional classes of hit genes were correlated with the microenvironment difference between the 2D monolayer cell proliferation and 3D sphere formation assays. Furthermore, multiplexing of cell proliferation and viability measures enabled us to compare the sensitivity and resistance responses to the gene knockdown. Many target genes that inhibited cell proliferation increased the single-cell-level viability of surviving cells, leading to an increase in self-renewal potential. In this study, combinations of parallel 2D/3D assays and multiplexing of cell proliferation and viability measures provided functional insights into the varied phenotypic outcomes of the cancer targetome.

Project description:Purpose:To dissect the mechanisms underlying altered gene expression in aneuploids, we measured transcript abundance in colonies of haploid yeast strain F45 and derived strains, including strains disomic for chromosomes XV and XVI, using RNA-seq. F45 colonies display complex “fluffy” morphologies, while the disomic colonies are smooth, resembling laboratory strains Methods: RNA-seq analysis was carried out on RNA isolated from fully developed S. cerevisiae colonies, grown on solid medium for four days, either in triplicate or quadruplicate. Stranded, paired-end sequencing was carried out in two batches. In the first batch 2x51 bp sequencing was carried out on an Illumina Hiseq2000 and in the second batch 2x75 bp sequencing was carried out on an Illumina NextSeq. Readpairs were aligned using Bowtie2 (version 2.1.0)with the parameters [-N 1 -I 50 -X 450 -p 6 --reorder -x -S] and allowing 1 mismatch per read. Differential transcription was detected and quantified using EdgeR (v. 3.6.8) Results: Our two disomes displayed similar transcriptional profiles, a phenomenon not driven by their shared smooth colony morphology nor specified purely by the karyotype. Surprisingly, the environmental stress response (ESR) was induced in euploid F45, relative to the two disomes, rather than vice-versa. We also identified genes whose expression reflected a non-linear interaction between the copy number of a transcriptional regulatory gene on chromosome XVI, DIG1, and the copy number of other chromosome XVI genes. DIG1 and the remaining chromosome XVI genes also demonstrated distinct contributions to the effect of the chromosome XVI disome on ESR gene expression. Conclusions: Expression changes in aneuploids reflect a mixture of effects shared between different aneuploidies, including stress responses, and effects unique to perturbing the copy number of particular chromosomes, including non-linear copy number interactions between genes. The balance between these two phenomena is likely to be genotype and environment specific.
