Loss of CENP-I Impairs Homologous Recombination and Sensitizes Cells to PARP1 Inhibition.

ABSTRACT: Centromere Protein I (CENP-I) is a member of the CENP-H/I/K complex. CENP-H/I/K is a major component of the inner kinetochore and aids in ensuring proper chromosomal segregation during mitosis. In addition to this chromosomal segregation function, CENP-I also plays a role in DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair. Loss of CENP-I leads to increased endogenous 53BP1 foci and R-loop formation, while reducing cellular survival after ionizing radiation and Niraparib, a PARP1 small molecule inhibitor, exposures. Cells lacking CENP-I display delayed 53BP1 foci regression, an indication that DSB repair is impaired. Additionally, loss of CENP-I impairs the homologous recombination DSB repair pathway, while having no effect on the non-homologous end-joining pathway. Interestingly, we find that RNaseH1 expression restores HR capacity in CENP-I deficient cells. Importantly, CENP-I expression is elevated in glioma tissue as compared to normal brain tissue. This elevated expression also correlates with poor overall patient survival. These data highlight the multi-functional role CENP-I plays in maintaining genetic, as well as chromosomal, stability and tumor survival.

A Cyclin-Dependent Kinase Inhibitor, Dinaciclib, Impairs Homologous Recombination and Sensitizes Multiple Myeloma Cells to PARP Inhibition.

Project description:PARP1/2 are required for single-strand break repair, and their inhibition causes DNA replication fork collapse and double-strand break (DSB) formation. These DSBs are primarily repaired via homologous recombination (HR), a high-fidelity repair pathway. Should HR be deficient, DSBs may be repaired via error-prone nonhomologous end-joining mechanisms, or may persist, ultimately resulting in cell death. The combined disruption of PARP and HR activities thus produces synthetic lethality. Multiple myeloma cells are characterized by chromosomal instability and pervasive DNA damage, implicating aberrant DNA repair. Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK), upstream modulators of HR, are dysregulated in multiple myeloma. Here, we show that a CDK inhibitor, dinaciclib, impairs HR repair and sensitizes multiple myeloma cells to the PARP1/2 inhibitor ABT-888. Dinaciclib abolishes ABT-888-induced BRCA1 and RAD51 foci and potentiates DNA damage, indicated by increased ?H2AX foci. Dinaciclib treatment reduces expression of HR repair genes, including Rad51, and blocks BRCA1 phosphorylation, a modification required for HR repair, thus inhibiting HR repair of chromosome DSBs. Cotreatment with dinaciclib and ABT-888 in vitro resulted in synthetic lethality of multiple myeloma cells, but not normal CD19(+) B cells, and slowed growth of multiple myeloma xenografts in SCID mice almost two-fold. These findings support combining dinaciclib with PARP inhibitors for multiple myeloma therapy. Mol Cancer Ther; 15(2); 241-50. ©2015 AACR.

Loss of MAP3K7 Sensitizes Prostate Cancer Cells to CDK1/2 Inhibition and DNA Damage by Disrupting Homologous Recombination.

Project description:The combined loss of CHD1 and MAP3K7 promotes aggressive prostate cancer by unknown mechanisms. Because both of these genes are lost genetically in prostate cancer, they cannot be directly targeted. We applied an established computational systems pharmacology approach (TRAP) to identify altered signaling pathways and associated druggable targets. We compared gene expression profiles of prostate cancer with coloss of CHD1 and MAP3K7 with prostate cancer diploid for these genes using The Cancer Genome Atlas patient samples. This analysis prioritized druggable target genes that included CDK1 and CDK2. We validated that inhibitors of these druggable target genes, including the CDK1/CDK2 inhibitor dinaciclib, had antiproliferative and cytotoxic effects selectively on mouse prostate cells with knockdown of Chd1 and Map3k7. Dinaciclib had stronger effects on prostate cells with suppression of Map3k7 independent of Chd1 and also compared with cells without loss of Map3k7. Dinaciclib treatment reduced expression of homologous recombination (HR) repair genes such as ATM, ATR, BRCA2, and RAD51, blocked BRCA1 phosphorylation, reduced RAD51 foci formation, and increased γH2AX foci selectively in prostate cells with suppression of Map3k7, thus inhibiting HR repair of chromosomal double-strand breaks. Dinaciclib-induced HR disruption was also observed in human prostate cells with knockdown of MAP3K7. Cotreatment of dinaciclib with DNA-damaging agents or PARP inhibitor resulted in a stronger cytotoxic effect on prostate cells with suppression of MAP3K7 compared with those without loss of MAP3K7, or to each single agent. IMPLICATIONS: These findings demonstrate that loss of MAP3K7 is a main contributing factor to drug response through disruption of HR in prostate cancer.

Loss of CtIP disturbs homologous recombination repair and sensitizes breast cancer cells to PARP inhibitors.

Project description:Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, and therefore, new and improved approaches for the treatment of breast cancer are desperately needed. CtIP (RBBP8) is a multifunctional protein that is involved in various cellular functions, including transcription, DNA replication, DNA repair and the G1 and G2 cell cycle checkpoints. CtIP plays an important role in homologous recombination repair by interacting with tumor suppressor protein BRCA1. Here, we analyzed the expression profile of CtIP by data mining using published microarray data sets. We found that CtIP expression is frequently decreased in breast cancer patients, and the patient group with low-expressing CtIP mRNA is associated with a significantly lower survival rate. The knockdown of CtIP in breast cancer MCF7 cells reduced Rad51 foci numbers and enhanced f H2AX foci formation after f-irradiation, suggesting that deficiency of CtIP decreases homologous recombination repair and delays DNA double strand break repair. To explore the effect of CtIP on PARP inhibitor therapy for breast cancer, CtIP-depleted MCF7 cells were treated with PARP inhibitor olaparib (AZD2281) or veliparib (ABT-888). As in BRCA mutated cells, PARP inhibitors showed cytotoxicity to CtIP-depleted cells by preventing cells from repairing DNA damage, leading to decreased cell viability. Further, a xenograft tumor model in mice with MCF7 cells demonstrated significantly increased sensitivity towards PARP inhibition under CtIP deficiency. In summary, this study shows that low level of CtIP expression is associated with poor prognosis in breast cancer, and provides a rationale for establishing CtIP expression as a biomarker of PARP inhibitor response, and consequently offers novel therapeutic options for a significant subset of patients.

EZH2 Inhibition Sensitizes CARM1-High, Homologous Recombination Proficient Ovarian Cancers to PARP Inhibition.

Project description:In response to DNA double-strand breaks, MAD2L2-containing shieldin complex plays a critical role in the choice between homologous recombination (HR) and non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ)-mediated repair. Here we show that EZH2 inhibition upregulates MAD2L2 and sensitizes HR-proficient epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) to poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor in a CARM1-dependent manner. CARM1 promotes MAD2L2 silencing by driving the switch from the SWI/SNF complex to EZH2 through methylating the BAF155 subunit of the SWI/SNF complex on the MAD2L2 promoter. EZH2 inhibition upregulates MAD2L2 to decrease DNA end resection, which increases NHEJ and chromosomal abnormalities, ultimately causing mitotic catastrophe in PARP inhibitor treated HR-proficient cells. Significantly, EZH2 inhibitor sensitizes CARM1-high, but not CARM-low, EOCs to PARP inhibitors in both orthotopic and patient-derived xenografts.

Repression of BET activity sensitizes homologous recombination-proficient cancers to PARP inhibition.

Project description:Strategies to enhance response to poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase inhibitor (PARPi) in primary and acquired homologous recombination (HR)-proficient tumors would be a major advance in cancer care. We used a drug synergy screen that combined a PARPi, olaparib, with 20 well-characterized epigenetic drugs and identified bromodomain and extraterminal domain inhibitors (BETis; JQ1, I-BET762, and OTX015) as drugs that acted synergistically with olaparib in HR-proficient cancer cells. Functional assays demonstrated that repressed BET activity reduces HR and thus enhances PARPi-induced DNA damage in cancer cells. We also found that inhibition or depletion of BET proteins impairs transcription of BRCA1 and RAD51, two genes essential for HR. Moreover, BETi treatment sensitized tumors to PARP inhibition in preclinical animal models of HR-proficient breast and ovarian cancers. Finally, we showed that the BRD4 gene was focally amplified across 20 types of common cancers. Combination with BETi could greatly expand the utility of PARP inhibition to patients with HR-proficient cancer.

PARP1 inhibition radiosensitizes HNSCC cells deficient in homologous recombination by disabling the DNA replication fork elongation response.

Project description:There is a need to develop new, more efficient therapies for head and neck cancer (HNSCC) patients. It is currently unclear whether defects in DNA repair genes play a role in HNSCCs' resistance to therapy. PARP1 inhibitors (PARPi) were found to be "synthetic lethal" in cancers deficient in BRCA1/2 with impaired homologous recombination. Since tumors rarely have these particular mutations, there is considerable interest in finding alternative determinants of PARPi sensitivity. Effectiveness of combined irradiation and PARPi olaparib was evaluated in ten HNSCC cell lines, subdivided into HR-proficient and HR-deficient cell lines using a GFP-based reporter assay. Both groups were equally sensitive to PARPi alone. Combined treatment revealed stronger synergistic interactions in the HR-deficient group. Because HR is mainly active in S-Phase, replication processes were analyzed. A stronger impact of treatment on replication processes (p = 0.04) and an increased number of radial chromosomes (p = 0.003) were observed in the HR-deficient group. We could show that radiosensitization by inhibition of PARP1 strongly correlates with HR competence in a replication-dependent manner. Our observations indicate that PARP1 inhibitors are promising candidates for enhancing the therapeutic ratio achieved by radiotherapy via disabling DNA replication processes in HR-deficient HNSCCs.

The cancer-testis gene, <i>MEIOB,</i> sensitizes triple-negative breast cancer to PARP1 inhibitors by inducing homologous recombination deficiency.

Project description:ObjectiveThe newly defined cancer-testis (CT) gene, MEIOB, was previously found to play key roles in DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects and mechanisms of MEIOB in the carcinogenesis of triple-negative breast cancers (TNBCs).MethodsThe Cancer Genome Atlas database was used to quantify the expression of MEIOB. Cox regression analysis was used to evaluate the association between MEIOB expression and the prognosis of human TNBC. The effects of MEIOB on cell proliferation and migration in TNBCs were also assessed in vitro. Patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models were used to assess the sensitivity of breast cancers with active MEIOB to PARP1 inhibitors.ResultsWe confirmed MEIOB as a CT gene whose expression was restricted to the testes and breast tumors, especially TNBCs. Its activation was significantly associated with poor survival in breast cancer patients [overall, hazard ratio (HR) = 1.90 (1.16-2.06); TNBCs: HR = 7.05 (1.16-41.80)]. In addition, we found that MEIOB was oncogenic and significantly promoted the proliferation of TNBC cells. Further analysis showed that MEIOB participated in DSB repair in TNBCs. However, in contrast to its function in meiosis, it mediated homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) through the activation of polyADP-ribose polymerase (PARP)1 by interacting with YBX1. Furthermore, activated MEIOB was shown to confer sensitivity to PARP inhibitors, which was confirmed in PDX models.ConclusionsMEIOB played an oncogenic role in TNBC through its involvement in HRD. In addition, dysregulation of MEIOB sensitized TNBC cells to PARP inhibitors, so MEIOB may be a therapeutic target of PARP1 inhibitors in TNBC.

Mild hyperthermia inhibits homologous recombination, induces BRCA2 degradation, and sensitizes cancer cells to poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 inhibition.

Project description:Defective homologous recombination (HR) DNA repair imposed by BRCA1 or BRCA2 deficiency sensitizes cells to poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP)-1 inhibition and is currently exploited in clinical treatment of HR-deficient tumors. Here we show that mild hyperthermia (41-42.5 °C) induces degradation of BRCA2 and inhibits HR. We demonstrate that hyperthermia can be used to sensitize innately HR-proficient tumor cells to PARP-1 inhibitors and that this effect can be enhanced by heat shock protein inhibition. Our results, obtained from cell lines and in vivo tumor models, enable the design of unique therapeutic strategies involving localized on-demand induction of HR deficiency, an approach that we term induced synthetic lethality.

PRMT1 loss sensitizes cells to PRMT5 inhibition.

Project description:PRMT5 is an arginine methyltransferase that accounts for the vast majority of the symmetric methylation in cells. PRMT5 exerts its function when complexed with MEP50/WDR77. This activity is often elevated in cancer cells and correlates with poor prognosis, making PRMT5 a therapeutic target. To investigate the PRMT5 signaling pathway and to identify genes whose loss-of-function sensitizes cancer cells to PRMT5 inhibition, we performed a CRISPR/Cas9 genetic screen in the presence of a PRMT5 inhibitor. We identified known components of the PRMT5 writer/reader pathway including PRMT5 itself, MEP50/WDR77, PPP4C, SMNDC1 and SRSF3. Interestingly, loss of PRMT1, the major asymmetric arginine methyltransferase, also sensitizes cells to PRMT5 inhibition. We investigated the interplay between PRMT5 and PRMT1, and found that combinatorial inhibitor treatment of small cell lung cancer and pancreatic cancer cell models have a synergistic effect. Furthermore, MTAP-deleted cells, which harbor an attenuated PRMT5-MEP50 signaling pathway, are generally more sensitive to PRMT1 inhibition. Together, these findings demonstrate that there is a degree of redundancy between the PRMT5 and PRMT1 pathways, even though these two enzymes deposit different types of arginine methylation marks. Targeting this redundancy provides a vulnerability for tumors carrying a co-deletion of MTAP and the adjacent CDKN2A tumor suppressor gene.

Methylated-UHRF1 and PARP1 interaction is critical for homologous recombination.

Project description:A recent study suggested that methylation of ubiquitin-like with PHD and RING finger domain 1 (UHRF1) is regulated by SET7 and lysine-specific histone demethylase 1A (LSD1) and is essential for homologous recombination (HR). The study demonstrated that SET7-mediated methylation of UHRF1 promotes polyubiquitination of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), inducing HR. However, studies on mediators that interact with and recruit UHRF1 to damaged lesions are needed to elucidate the mechanism of UHRF1 methylationinduced HR. Here, we identified that poly [ADP-ribose] polymerase 1 (PARP1) interacts with damage-induced methylated UHRF1 specifically and mediates UHRF1 to induce HR progression. Furthermore, cooperation of UHRF1-PARP1 is essential for cell viability, suggesting the importance of the interaction of UHRF1-PARP1 for damage tolerance in response to damage. Our data revealed that PARP1 mediates the HR mechanism, which is regulated by UHRF1 methylation. The data also indicated the significant role of PARP1 as a mediator of UHRF1 methylation-correlated HR pathway. [BMB Reports 2020; 53(2): 112-117].
