Tyrosine phosphatase SHP2 inhibitors in tumor-targeted therapies.

ABSTRACT: Src homology containing protein tyrosine phosphatase 2 (SHP2) represents a noteworthy target for various diseases, serving as a well-known oncogenic phosphatase in cancers. As a result of the low cell permeability and poor bioavailability, the traditional inhibitors targeting the protein tyrosine phosphate catalytic sites are generally suffered from unsatisfactory applied efficacy. Recently, a particularly large number of allosteric inhibitors with striking inhibitory potency on SHP2 have been identified. In particular, few clinical trials conducted have made significant progress on solid tumors by using SHP2 allosteric inhibitors. This review summarizes the development and structure-activity relationship studies of the small-molecule SHP2 inhibitors for tumor therapies, with the purpose of assisting the future development of SHP2 inhibitors with improved selectivity, higher oral bioavailability and better physicochemical properties.

Small molecule inhibitors of SHP2 tyrosine phosphatase discovered by virtual screening.

Project description:SHP2, encoded by PTPN11, is a non-receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) containing two tandem Src homology-2 (SH2) domains. It is expressed ubiquitously and plays critical roles in growth factor mediated processes, primarily by promoting the activation of the RAS/ERK signaling pathway. Genetic and biochemical studies have identified SHP2 as the first bona fide oncoprotein in the PTP superfamily, and a promising target for anti-cancer and anti-leukemia therapy. Here, we report a structure-based approach to identify SHP2 inhibitors with a novel scaffold. Through sequential virtual screenings and in vitro inhibition assays, a reversible competitive SHP2 inhibitor (C21) was identified. C21 is structurally distinct from all known SHP2 inhibitors. Combining molecular dynamics simulation and binding free energy calculation, a most likely binding mode of C21 with SHP2 is proposed, and further validated by site-directed mutagenesis and structure-activity relationship studies. This binding mode is consistent with the observed potency and specificity of C21, and reveals the molecular determinants for further optimization based on the new scaffold.

Specific inhibitors of the protein tyrosine phosphatase Shp2 identified by high-throughput docking.

Project description:The protein tyrosine phosphatase Shp2 is a positive regulator of growth factor signaling. Gain-of-function mutations in several types of leukemia define Shp2 as a bona fide oncogene. We performed a high-throughput in silico screen for small-molecular-weight compounds that bind the catalytic site of Shp2. We have identified the phenylhydrazonopyrazolone sulfonate PHPS1 as a potent and cell-permeable inhibitor, which is specific for Shp2 over the closely related tyrosine phosphatases Shp1 and PTP1B. PHPS1 inhibits Shp2-dependent cellular events such as hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF)-induced epithelial cell scattering and branching morphogenesis. PHPS1 also blocks Shp2-dependent downstream signaling, namely HGF/SF-induced sustained phosphorylation of the Erk1/2 MAP kinases and dephosphorylation of paxillin. Furthermore, PHPS1 efficiently inhibits activation of Erk1/2 by the leukemia-associated Shp2 mutant, Shp2-E76K, and blocks the anchorage-independent growth of a variety of human tumor cell lines. The PHPS compound class is therefore suitable for further development of therapeutics for the treatment of Shp2-dependent diseases.

Discovery of novel furanylbenzamide inhibitors that target oncogenic tyrosine phosphatase SHP2 in leukemia cells.

Project description:Disturbance of the dynamic balance between tyrosine phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of signaling molecules, controlled by protein tyrosine kinases and protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs), is known to lead to the development of cancer. While most approved targeted cancer therapies are tyrosine kinase inhibitors, PTPs have long been stigmatized as undruggable and have only recently gained renewed attention in drug discovery. One PTP target is the Src-homology 2 domain-containing phosphatase 2 (SHP2). SHP2 is implicated in tumor initiation, progression, metastasis, and treatment resistance, primarily because of its role as a signaling nexus of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase pathway, acting upstream of the small GTPase Ras. Efforts to develop small molecules that target SHP2 are ongoing, and several SHP2 allosteric inhibitors are currently in clinical trials for the treatment of solid tumors. However, while the reported allosteric inhibitors are highly effective against cells expressing WT SHP2, none have significant activity against the most frequent oncogenic SHP2 variants that drive leukemogenesis in several juvenile and acute leukemias. Here, we report the discovery of novel furanylbenzamide molecules as inhibitors of both WT and oncogenic SHP2. Importantly, these inhibitors readily cross cell membranes, bind and inhibit SHP2 under physiological conditions, and effectively decrease the growth of cancer cells, including triple-negative breast cancer cells, acute myeloid leukemia cells expressing either WT or oncogenic SHP2, and patient-derived acute myeloid leukemia cells. These novel compounds are effective chemical probes of active SHP2 and may serve as starting points for therapeutics targeting WT or mutant SHP2 in cancer.

SHP2 tyrosine phosphatase converts parafibromin/Cdc73 from a tumor suppressor to an oncogenic driver.

Project description:Deregulation of SHP2 is associated with malignant diseases as well as developmental disorders. Although SHP2 is required for full activation of RAS signaling, other potential roles in cell physiology have not been elucidated. Here we show that SHP2 dephosphorylates parafibromin/Cdc73, a core component of the RNA polymerase II-associated factor (PAF) complex. Parafibromin is known to act as a tumor suppressor that inhibits cyclin D1 and c-myc by recruiting SUV39H1 histone methyltransferase. However, parafibromin can also act in the opposing direction by binding ?-catenin, thereby activating promitogenic/oncogenic Wnt signaling. We found that, on tyrosine dephosphorylation by SHP2, parafibromin acquires the ability to stably bind ?-catenin. The parafibromin/?-catenin interaction overrides parafibromin/SUV39H1-mediated transrepression and induces expression of Wnt target genes, including cyclin D1 and c-myc. Hence, SHP2 governs the opposing functions of parafibromin, deregulation of which may cause the development of tumors or developmental malformations.

Tyrosine phosphatase SHP2 aggravates tumor progression and glycolysis by dephosphorylating PKM2 in gastric cancer.

Project description:Gastric cancer (GC) is among the most lethal human malignancies, yet it remains hampered by challenges in fronter of molecular-guided targeted therapy to direct clinical treatment strategies. The protein tyrosine phosphatase Src homology 2 domain-containing phosphatase 2 (SHP2) is involved in the malignant progression of GC. However, the detailed mechanisms of the posttranslational modifications of SHP2 remain poorly understood. Herein, we demonstrated that an allosteric SHP2 inhibitor, SHP099, was able to block tumor proliferation and migration of GC by dephosphorylating the pyruvate kinase M2 type (PKM2) protein. Mechanistically, we found that PKM2 is a bona fide target of SHP2. The dephosphorylation and activation of PKM2 by SHP2 are necessary to exacerbate tumor progression and GC glycolysis. Moreover, we demonstrated a strong correlation between the phosphorylation level of PKM2 and adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in GC cells. Notably, the low phosphorylation expression of AMPK was negatively correlated with activated SHP2. Besides, we proved that cisplatin could activate SHP2 and SHP099 increased sensitivity to cisplatin in GC. Taken together, our results provide evidence that the SHP2/PKM2/AMPK axis exerts a key role in GC progression and glycolysis and could be a viable therapeutic approach for the therapy of GC.

Targeted Degradation of the Oncogenic Phosphatase SHP2.

Project description:SHP2 is a protein tyrosine phosphatase that plays a critical role in the full activation of the Ras-MAPK pathway upon stimulation of receptor tyrosine kinases, which are frequently amplified or mutationally activated in human cancer. In addition, activating mutations in SHP2 result in developmental disorders and hematologic malignancies. Several allosteric inhibitors have been developed for SHP2 and are currently in clinical trials. Here, we report the development and evaluation of a SHP2 PROTAC created by conjugating RMC-4550 with pomalidomide using a PEG linker. This molecule is highly selective for SHP2, induces degradation of SHP2 in leukemic cells at submicromolar concentrations, inhibits MAPK signaling, and suppresses cancer cell growth. SHP2 PROTACs serve as an alternative strategy for targeting ERK-dependent cancers and are useful tools alongside allosteric inhibitors for dissecting the mechanisms by which SHP2 exerts its oncogenic activity.

Neuronal Shp2 tyrosine phosphatase controls energy balance and metabolism.

Project description:Shp2, a Src homology 2-containing tyrosine phosphatase, has been implicated in a variety of growth factor or cytokine signaling pathways. However, it is conceivable that this enzyme acts predominantly in one pathway versus the others in a cell, depending on the cellular context. To determine the putative functions of Shp2 in the adult brain, we selectively deleted Shp2 in postmitotic forebrain neurons by crossing CaMKIIalpha-Cre transgenic mice with a conditional Shp2 mutant (Shp2(flox)) strain. Surprisingly, a prominent phenotype of the mutant (CaMKIIalpha-Cre:Shp2(flox/flox) or CaSKO) mice was the development of early-onset obesity, with increased serum levels of leptin, insulin, glucose, and triglycerides. The mutant mice were not hyperphagic but developed enlarged and steatotic liver. Consistent with previous in vitro data, we found that Shp2 down-regulates Jak2/Stat3 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 3) activation by leptin in the hypothalamus. However, Jak2/Stat3 down-regulation is offset by a dominant Shp2 promotion of the leptin-stimulated Erk pathway, leading to induction rather than suppression of leptin resistance upon Shp2 deletion in the brain. Collectively, these results suggest that a primary function of Shp2 in postmitotic forebrain neurons is to control energy balance and metabolism, and that this phosphatase is a critical signaling component of leptin receptor ObRb in the hypothalamus. Shp2 shows potential as a neuronal target for pharmaceutical sensitization of obese patients to leptin action.

Inhibitors of Src homology-2 domain containing protein tyrosine phosphatase-2 (Shp2) based on oxindole scaffolds.

Project description:Screening of the NCI diversity set of compounds has led to the identification of 5 (NSC-117199), which inhibits the protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) Shp2 with an IC50 of 47 microM. A focused library incorporating an isatin scaffold was designed and evaluated for inhibition of Shp2 and Shp1 PTP activities. Several compounds were identified that selectively inhibit Shp2 over Shp1 and PTP1B with low to submicromolar activity. A model for the binding of the active compounds is proposed.

The Tyrosine Phosphatase SHP2: A New Target for Insulin Resistance?

Project description:The SH2 containing protein tyrosine phosphatase 2(SHP2) plays essential roles in fundamental signaling pathways, conferring on it versatile physiological functions during development and in homeostasis maintenance, and leading to major pathological outcomes when dysregulated. Many studies have documented that SHP2 modulation disrupted glucose homeostasis, pointing out a relationship between its dysfunction and insulin resistance, and the therapeutic potential of its targeting. While studies from cellular or tissue-specific models concluded on both pros-and-cons effects of SHP2 on insulin resistance, recent data from integrated systems argued for an insulin resistance promoting role for SHP2, and therefore a therapeutic benefit of its inhibition. In this review, we will summarize the general knowledge of SHP2's molecular, cellular, and physiological functions, explaining the pathophysiological impact of its dysfunctions, then discuss its protective or promoting roles in insulin resistance as well as the potency and limitations of its pharmacological modulation.

Control of oligodendrocyte generation and proliferation by Shp2 protein tyrosine phosphatase.

Project description:Extracellular signals play essential roles in controlling the proliferation and differentiation of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells in the developing central nervous system. However, the intracellular pathways that transduce these extrinsic signals remain to be elucidated. In this study, we showed that conditional ablation of the nonreceptor tyrosine phosphatase Shp2 in Olig1-expressing oligodendrocyte lineage resulted in dramatic reduction in the generation and proliferation of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells in the spinal cord. Maturation and myelination of oligodendrocytes were also compromised in the Shp2 mutants. The deficits in oligodendrocyte development in Shp2 mutants nearly phenocopied those observed in PDGF-A mutants, suggesting that Shp2 is a crucial component in transducing PDGF-A signals in the control of oligodendrocyte proliferation and maturation.
