Poly(ADP)-Ribosylation Inhibition: A Promising Approach for Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma Therapy.

ABSTRACT: Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) and glycohydrolase (PARG) enzymes regulate chromatin structure, transcription activation, and DNA repair by modulating poly(ADP-ribose) (pADPr) level. Interest in PARP-1 inhibitors has soared recently with the recognition of their antitumor efficacy. We have shown that the development of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is associated with extreme accumulation of pADPr caused by the enhanced expression of PARP-1 and decreased PARG levels. The most severe misregulation of pADPr turnover is found in ccRCC specimens from metastatic lesions. Both, classical NAD-like and non-NAD-like PARP-1 inhibitors reduced viability and clonogenic potential of ccRCC cell lines and suppressed growth of ccRCC xenograft tumors. However, classical NAD-like PARP-1 inhibitors affected viability of normal kidney epithelial cells at high concentrations, while novel non-NAD-like PARP-1 inhibitors exhibited activity against malignant cells only. We have also utilized different approaches to reduce the pADPr level in ccRCC cells by stably overexpressing PARG and demonstrated the prominent antitumor effect of this "back-to-normal" intervention. We also generated ccRCC cell lines with stable overexpression of PARG under doxycycline induction. This genetic approach demonstrated significantly affected malignancy of ccRCC cells. Transcriptome analysis linked observed phenotype with changes in gene expression levels for lipid metabolism, interferon signaling, and angiogenesis pathways along with the changes in expression of key cancer-related genes.

Poly(ADP-Ribose) Polymerase Inhibition as a Promising Approach for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Therapy.

Project description:Primary liver cancer is the sixth most common cancer in men and seventh in women, with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) being the most common form (75-85% of primary liver cancer cases) and the most frequent etiology being viral infections (HBV and HCV). In 2020, mortality represented 92% of the incidence-830,180 deaths for 905,677 new cases. Few treatment options exist for advanced or terminal-stage HCC, which will receive systemic therapy or palliative care. Although radiotherapy is used in the treatment of many cancers, it is currently not the treatment of choice for HCC, except in the palliative setting. However, as radiosensitizing drugs, such as inhibitors of DNA repair enzymes, could potentiate the effects of RT in HCC by exploiting the modulation of DNA repair processes found in this tumour type, RT and such drugs could provide a treatment option for HCC. In this review, we provide an overview of PARP1 involvement in DNA damage repair pathway and discuss its potential implication in HCC. In addition, the use of PARP inhibitors and PARP decoys is described for the treatment of HCC and, in particular, in HBV-related HCC.

AURKB: a promising biomarker in clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

Project description:Background:Aurora kinase B (AURKB) is an important carcinogenic factor in various tumors, while its role in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) still remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate its prognostic value and mechanism of action in ccRCC. Methods:Gene expression profiles and clinical data of ccRCC patients were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas database. R software was utilized to analyze the expression and prognostic role of AURKB in ccRCC. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was used to analyze AURKB related signaling pathways in ccRCC. Results:AURKB was expressed at higher levels in ccRCC tissues than normal kidney tissues. Increased AURKB expression in ccRCC correlated with high histological grade, pathological stage, T stage, N stage and distant metastasis (M stage). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis suggested that high AURKB expression patients had a worse prognosis than patients with low AURKB expression levels. Multivariate Cox analysis showed that AURKB expression is a prognostic factor of ccRCC. GSEA indicated that genes involved in autoimmune thyroid disease, intestinal immune network for IgA production, antigen processing and presentation, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, asthma, etc., were differentially enriched in the AURKB high expression phenotype. Conclusions:AURKB is a promising biomarker for predicting prognosis of ccRCC patients and a potential therapeutic target. In addition, AURKB might regulate progression of ccRCC through modulating intestinal immune network for IgA production and cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, etc. signaling pathways. However, more research is necessary to validate the findings.

MET Inhibition in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma.

Project description:BackgroundClear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most lethal form of kidney cancer. Small molecule VEGFR inhibitors are widely used but are not curative and various resistance mechanisms such as activation of the MET pathway have been described. Dual MET/VEGFR2 inhibitors have recently shown clinical benefit but limited preclinical data evaluates their effects in ccRCC.MethodsAn interrogation of the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) dataset was performed to evaluate oncogenic alterations in the MET/VEGFR2 pathway. We evaluated the in vitro effects of Cabozantinib, a dual MET/VEGFR2 inhibitor, using a panel of ccRCC cell lines. Drug effects of cell viability and proliferation, migration, cell scatter, anchorage independent growth, and downstream MET/VEGFR2 signaling pathways were assessed.ResultsTwelve percent of TCGA cases had possible MET/HGF oncogenic alterations with co-occurrence noted (p<0.001). MET/HGF altered cases had worse overall survival (p=0.044). Cabozantinib was a potent inhibitor of MET and VEGFR2 in vitro in our cell line panel. PI3K, MAPK and mTOR pathways were also suppressed by cabozantinib, however the effects on cell viability in vitro were modest. At nanomolar concentrations of cabozantinib, HGF-stimulated migration, invasion, cellular scattering and soft agar colony formation were inhibited.ConclusionsWe provide further preclinical rationale for dual MET/VEGFR2 inhibition in ccRCC. While the MET pathway is implicated in VEGFR resistance, dual inhibitors may have direct anti-tumor effects in a patient subset with evidence of MET pathway involvement. Cabozantinib is a potent dual MET/VEGFR2 inhibitor, significantly inhibits cell migration and invasion in vitro and likely has anti-angiogenic effects similar to other VEGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Future work involving in vivo models will be useful to better define mechanisms of potential anti-tumor activity.

GFOD1 and peejar are promising markers for clear-cell renal cell carcinoma disease progression.

Project description:Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is a common genitourinary malignancy. The molecular pathogenesis of ccRCC remains unclear and biomarkers for daily practice were still limited. We performed an integrative analysis of two public ccRCC microarray datasets, E-GEOD-22541 and E-MTAB-1050, The candidate differential expression genes (DEG) were then confirmed in the E-GEOD-53757 dataset. In addition, an independent cohort of 50 ccRCC and 36 non-tumor kidney tissues were analyzed to examine the selected DGEs by qRT-PCR. We identified and validated two DEGs, namely GFOD1 and peejar, which were significantly up-regulated in ccRCC compared with normal renal tissues (p < 0.001). Moreover, the expression of these two genes are related to histological grade and stage and decrease of their expression correlated with disease progression (p < 0.05). Furthermore, we found the expression of peejar was positively correlated with the expression of GFOD1 in ccRCC tissue, with Pearson correlation coefficiency reaching 0.939 (p < 0.001). GFOD1 and peejar were novel genes correlated with ccRCC disease progression and patients' poor prognosis.

Exosome component 1 cleaves single-stranded DNA and sensitizes human kidney renal clear cell carcinoma cells to poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor.

Project description:Targeting DNA repair pathway offers an important therapeutic strategy for Homo sapiens (human) cancers. However, the failure of DNA repair inhibitors to markedly benefit patients necessitates the development of new strategies. Here, we show that exosome component 1 (EXOSC1) promotes DNA damages and sensitizes human kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) cells to DNA repair inhibitor. Considering that endogenous source of mutation (ESM) constantly assaults genomic DNA and likely sensitizes human cancer cells to the inhibitor, we first analyzed the statistical relationship between the expression of individual genes and the mutations for KIRC. Among the candidates, EXOSC1 most notably promoted DNA damages and subsequent mutations via preferentially cleaving C site(s) in single-stranded DNA. Consistently, EXOSC1 was more significantly correlated with C>A transversions in coding strands than these in template strands in human KIRC. Notably, KIRC patients with high EXOSC1 showed a poor prognosis, and EXOSC1 sensitized human cancer cells to poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors. These results show that EXOSC1 acts as an ESM in KIRC, and targeting EXOSC1 might be a potential therapeutic strategy.

Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 acts as a promising biomarker in clear cell Renal Cell Carcinoma.

Project description:BackgroundThis research provides the first evidence of CDK5 in ccRCC prognosis and correlation with different p21 expression in overall survival (OS) analysis.MethodsThe data from both of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression of Normal and Tumor Tissue (GENT) were analyzed for determining the expression of CDK5 in kidney cancer. Tissue microarray that made by using 150 ccRCC samples was used in immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis. A validation of OS cohort was extracted from Oncomine database.ResultsThe CDK5 expression was significantly lower in cancer tissue compared with normal in TCGA (p <?0.0001), GENT database also showed a relative low expression in kidney cancer. Among 150 ccRCC patients, low CDK5 was detected in 83 cases (55.3%), low p21 in 97 cases (64.7%). CDK5 was associated with the advanced TNM stage (p =?0.042), and Fuhrman grade (p =?0.035). Patients with lower CDK5 might be more likely to be aggressive status. According to the combination analysis of CDK5 and p21, patients in CDK5 low/p21 low group showed poorer survival rate, and no significant survival difference was observed in other groups. In the Cox multivariate analysis, the co-expression of CDK5 low/p21 low was identified as an independent prognostic factor in ccRCC patients.ConclusionsTogether, our findings provided the first evidence that CDK5 was acting as a promising biomarker in ccRCC patients, and co-expression of CDK5 and p21 is an independent prognostic for overall survival. IHC analysis of CDK5 and p21 on cancer tissues after surgery may help to evaluate and predict the outcome of ccRCC patients.

ADP-ribosylation factor-like 4C is a predictive biomarker of poor prognosis in patients with renal cell carcinoma.

Project description:Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has the high mortality rate among urological malignancies. The development of RCC cannot be effectively reduced by molecular targeted therapies based on nutrient deprivation, such as inhibition of tumor angiogenesis. The objective of this study was to identify predictive biomarkers of poor prognosis and therapeutic molecular targets in patients with RCC. Two independent cohorts were analyzed in the present study. Global transcriptomics were used in the first cohort (43 patients with RCC) to identify biomarker genes. Each identified biomarker was subsequently analyzed using immunohistochemistry in the second cohort (97 patients with RCC). Following transcriptomics, biomarkers were evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Predictive accuracy for poor survivals was assessed using the log-rank test and Cox multivariate analysis. Global transcriptomic analysis in the first cohort focusing on cases with survival periods <2 years after initial diagnosis of metastasis detected seven overexpressed genes, which correlated with poor prognosis. The ADP-ribosylation factor-like 4C (ARL4C) exhibited the best accuracy in the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis and predicted poor survival in the first cohort (log-rank test, P<0.001; Cox multivariate analysis, hazard ratio =167, P=0.005). In the second cohort, the expression of ARL4C was semi-quantitatively evaluated through immunohistochemistry. Twenty-seven cases showed high levels of ARL4C, confirming a significant association with shorter survivals (log-rank test, P<0.001; Cox multivariate analysis, hazard ratio =9.41, P=0.004). ARL4C was shown to be a predictive biomarker for poor prognosis in patients with RCC and may be a novel target in the treatment of RCC.

Clear cell papillary renal cell carcinoma: micro-RNA expression profiling and comparison with clear cell renal cell carcinoma and papillary renal cell carcinoma.

Project description:Clear cell papillary renal cell carcinoma (CCPRCC) is a low-grade renal neoplasm with morphological characteristics mimicking both clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC) and papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC). However, despite some overlapping features, their morphological, immunohistochemical, and molecular profiles are distinct. Micro-RNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that play a crucial role in regulating gene expression and are involved in various biological processes, including cancer development. To better understand the biology of this tumor, we aimed to analyze the miRNA expression profile of a set of CCPRCC using microarray and quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. A total of 15 cases diagnosed as CCPRCC were used in this study. Among the most differentially expressed miRNA in CCPRCC, we found miR-210, miR-122, miR-34a, miR-21, miR-34b*, and miR-489 to be up-regulated, whereas miR-4284, miR-1202, miR-135a, miR-1973, and miR-204 were down-regulated compared with normal renal parenchyma. To identify consensus of differentially regulated miRNA between CCPRCC, CCRCC, and PRCC, we additionally determined differential miRNA expression using 2 publically available microarray data sets from the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus database (GSE41282 and GSE3798). This comparison revealed that the miRNA expression profile of CCPRCC shows some overlapping characteristics between CCRCC and PRCC. Moreover, CCPRCC lacks dysregulation of important miRNAs typically associated with aggressive behavior. In summary, we describe the miRNA expression profile of a relatively infrequent type of renal cancer. Our results may help in understanding the molecular underpinning of this newly recognized entity.

Poly-ADP ribosylation in DNA damage response and cancer therapy.

Project description:Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (aka PARylation) is a unique protein post-translational modification (PTM) first described over 50 years ago. PARylation regulates a number of biological processes including chromatin remodeling, the DNA damage response (DDR), transcription, apoptosis, and mitosis. The subsequent discovery of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) catalyzing DNA-dependent PARylation spearheaded the field of DDR. The expanding knowledge about the poly ADP-ribose (PAR) recognition domains prompted the discovery of novel DDR factors and revealed crosstalk with other protein PTMs including phosphorylation, ubiquitination, methylation and acetylation. In this review, we highlight the current knowledge on PAR-regulated DDR, PAR recognition domain, and PARP inhibition in cancer therapy.

Promising Epigenetic Biomarkers Associated With Cancer-Associated-Fibroblasts for Progression of Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma.

Project description:Kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) is the most common malignant kidney tumor as its characterization of highly metastatic potential. Patients with KIRC are associated with poor clinical outcomes with limited treatment options. Up to date, the underlying molecular mechanisms of KIRC pathogenesis and progression are still poorly understood. Instead, particular features of Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts (CAFs) are highly associated with adverse outcomes of patients with KIRC, while the precise regulatory mechanisms at the epigenetic level of KIRC in governing CAFs remain poorly defined. Therefore, explore the correlations between epigenetic regulation and CAFs infiltration may help us better understand the molecular mechanisms behind KIRC progression, which may improve clinical outcomes and patients quality of life. In the present study, we identified a set of clinically relevant CAFs-related methylation-driven genes, NAT8, TINAG, and SLC17A1 in KIRC. Our comprehensive in silico analysis revealed that the expression levels of NAT8, TINAG, and SLC17A1 are highly associated with outcomes of patients with KIRC. Meanwhile, their methylation levels are highly correlates with the severity of KIRC. We suggest that the biomarkers might contribute to CAFs infiltration in KIRC. Taken together, our study provides a set of promising biomarkers which could predict the progression and prognosis of KIRC. Our findings could have potential prognosis and therapeutic significance in the progression of KIRC.
