Glutamine sensitivity analysis identifies the xCT antiporter as a common triple negative breast tumor therapeutic target

ABSTRACT: A small number of tumor-derived cell lines have formed the mainstay of cancer therapeutic development, yielding drugs with impact typically measured as months to disease progression. To develop more effective breast cancer therapeutics, and more readily understand their potential clinical impact, we constructed a functional metabolic portrait of 46 independently-derived breast tumorigenic cell lines, contrasted with purified normal breast epithelial subsets, freshly isolated pleural effusion breast tumor samples and culture-adapted, non-tumorigenic mammary epithelial cell derivatives. We report our analysis of glutamine uptake, dependence, and identification of a significant subset of triple negative samples that are glutamine auxotrophs. This NCBI GEO submission comprises a small datasest generated to compare the expression profiles of the above nontumorigenic, purified normal and purified pleural effusion samples with 10 established breast cancer-derived cell lines. This dataset was subsequently merged with a previously published expression dataset derived from 45 independent breast cancer derived cell lines (Neve, et al 2006), and analyses contrasting various subsets of the merged dataset were published. Expression data from 26 samples, no replicates: purified normal human mammary epithelial breast cellular subsets CD10+, BerEP4+, and remaining stromal cell samples from 3 independent anonymous donors; 3 anonymous purified human breast cancer pleural effusion samples; 4 HMEC-derived culture adapted but not transformed samples (184A1, 184B5, HMLE, HMLE-PR); and 10 established human breast cancer cell lines.

Glutamine sensitivity analysis identifies the xCT antiporter as a common triple-negative breast tumor therapeutic target.

Project description:A handful of tumor-derived cell lines form the mainstay of cancer therapeutic development, yielding drugs with an impact typically measured as months to disease progression. To develop more effective breast cancer therapeutics and more readily understand their clinical impact, we constructed a functional metabolic portrait of 46 independently derived breast cell lines. Our analysis of glutamine uptake and dependence identified a subset of triple-negative samples that are glutamine auxotrophs. Ambient glutamine indirectly supports environmental cystine acquisition via the xCT antiporter, which is expressed on one-third of triple-negative tumors in vivo. xCT inhibition with the clinically approved anti-inflammatory sulfasalazine decreases tumor growth, revealing a therapeutic target in breast tumors of poorest prognosis and a lead compound for rapid, effective drug development.

Identification of CDC25 as a Common Therapeutic Target for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer.

Project description:CDK4/6 inhibitors are effective against cancer cells expressing the tumor suppressor RB1, but not RB1-deficient cells, posing the challenge of how to target RB1 loss. In triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), RB1 and PTEN are frequently inactivated together with TP53. We performed kinome/phosphatase inhibitor screens on primary mouse Rb/p53-, Pten/p53-, and human RB1/PTEN/TP53-deficient TNBC cell lines and identified CDC25 phosphatase as a common target. Pharmacological or genetic inhibition of CDC25 suppressed growth of RB1-deficient TNBC cells that are resistant to combined CDK4/6 plus CDK2 inhibition. Minimal cooperation was observed in vitro between CDC25 antagonists and CDK1, CDK2, or CDK4/6 inhibitors, but strong synergy with WEE1 inhibition was apparent. In accordance with increased PI3K signaling following long-term CDC25 inhibition, CDC25 and PI3K inhibitors effectively synergized to suppress TNBC growth both in vitro and in xenotransplantation models. These results provide a rationale for the development of CDC25-based therapies for diverse RB1/PTEN/TP53-deficient and -proficient TNBCs.

Ceramide Kinase (CERK) Emerges as a Common Therapeutic Target for Triple Positive and Triple Negative Breast Cancer Cells.

Project description:Sphingolipids are key signaling biomolecules that play a distinct role in cell proliferation, migration, invasion, drug resistance, metastasis, and apoptosis. Triple-negative (ER-PR-HER2-) and triple-positive (ER+PR+HER2+) breast cancer (called TNBC and TPBC, respectively) subtypes reveal distinct phenotypic characteristics and responses to therapy. Here, we present the sphingolipid profiles of BT-474 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell lines representing the TPBC and TNBC subtypes. We correlated the level of different classes of sphingolipids and the expression of their corresponding metabolizing enzymes with the cell proliferation and cell migration properties of BT-474 and MDA-MB-231 cells. Our results showed that each cell type exhibits a unique sphingolipid profile, and common enzymes such as ceramide kinase (CERK, responsible for the synthesis of ceramide-1-phosphates) are deregulated in these cell types. We showed that siRNA/small molecule-mediated inhibition of CERK can alleviate cell proliferation in BT-474 and MDA-MB-231 cells, and cell migration in MDA-MB-231 cells. We further demonstrated that nanoparticle-mediated delivery of CERK siRNA and hydrogel-mediated sustained delivery of CERK inhibitor to the tumor site can inhibit tumor progression in BT-474 and MDA-MB-231 tumor models. In summary, distinct sphingolipid profiles of TPBC and TNBC representing cell lines provide potential therapeutic targets such as CERK, and nanoparticle/hydrogel mediated pharmacological manipulations of such targets can be explored for future cancer therapeutics.

Kinome-Wide siRNA Screening Identifies DYRK1B as a Potential Therapeutic Target for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Cells.

Project description:The selective molecules for targeted therapy of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) are limited. Several kinases play pivotal roles in cancer development and malignancy. The study aims to determine if any kinases confer to malignancy of TNBC cells, which could serve as a theranostic target for TNBC. Kinome siRNA library was used to screen selective genes required for the proliferation of TNBC cells. The involvement of DYRK1B in cancer malignancy was evaluated with migration, invasion assays, and spheroid culture. The expression of DYRK1B was confirmed with quantitative PCR and immunoblotting. The clinical correlation of DYRK1B in TNBC patients was examined with tissue microarray and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Our results showed that silencing DYRK1B significantly suppressed cell viability in DYRK1B-high expressed TNBC cells, likely by arresting the cell cycle at the G1 phase. Nevertheless, silencing DYRK1B had marginal effects on DYRK1B-low expressed TNBC cells. Similarly, the knockdown of DYRK1B decreased tumorsphere formation and increased cell death of the tumorsphere. Moreover, inactivation of DYRK1B by either specific inhibitor or ectopic expressing catalytic mutant of DYRK1B inhibited cell viability and metastatic characteristics, including migration and invasion. In addition, DYRK1B protein expression was elevated in tumor tissues compared to that in adjacent normal tissues of TNBC patients. Further, DYRK1B gene expression was highly correlated with CCDC97 or ZNF581 genes in TNBC cells and patients. High co-expression of DYRK1B with CCDC97 or ZNF581 was significantly associated with unfavorable overall survival and disease-free survival of TNBC patients. our results suggest DYRK1B might be essential for promoting tumor progression and could be a theranostic target for TNBC. Silencing or inactivation of DYRK1B might be a potential targeted therapy for TNBC.

Immune checkpoints: A therapeutic target in triple negative breast cancer.

Project description:Early clinical trials investigating monoclonal antibodies targeting the T-cell inhibitory receptor programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) and its ligand PD-L1 have shown efficacy in melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer and renal cell carcinoma. We recently demonstrated PD-L1 expression in 20% of triple negative breast cancers suggesting that targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint may be an effective treatment modality in patients with this disease.

Aurora-A identifies early recurrence and poor prognosis and promises a potential therapeutic target in triple negative breast cancer.

Project description:Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) acquires an unfavorable prognosis, emerging as a major challenge for the treatment of breast cancer. In the present study, 122 TNBC patients were subjected to analysis of Aurora-A (Aur-A) expression and survival prognosis. We found that Aur-A high expression was positively associated with initial clinical stage (P?=?0.025), the proliferation marker Ki-67 (P?=?0.001), and the recurrence rate of TNBC patients (P<0.001). In TNBC patients with Aur-A high expression, the risk of distant recurrence peaked at the first 3 years and declined rapidly thereafter, whereas patients with Aur-A low expression showed a relatively constant risk of recurrence during the entire follow-up period. Univariate and multivariate analysis showed that overexpression of Aur-A predicted poor overall survival (P?=?0.002) and progression-free survival (P?=?0.012) in TNBC. Furthermore, overexpression of Aur-A, associated with high Ki-67, predicted an inferior prognosis compared with low expression of both Aur-A and Ki-67. Importantly, we further found that Aur-A was overexpressed in TNBC cells, and inhibition of this kinase inhibited cell proliferation and prevented cell migration in TNBC. Our findings demonstrated that Aur-A was a potential therapeutic target for TNBC and inhibition of Aur-A kinase was a promising regimen for TNBC cancer therapy.

Comparative Gene Signature of (-)-Oleocanthal Formulation Treatments in Heterogeneous Triple Negative Breast Tumor Models: Oncological Therapeutic Target Insights.

Project description:Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) heterogeneity and limited therapeutic options confer its phenotypic aggressiveness. The discovery of anti-TNBC natural products with valid molecular target(s) and defined pharmacodynamic profile would facilitate their therapeutic nutraceutical use by TNBC patients. The extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO) is a key Mediterranean diet ingredient. S-(-)-Oleocanthal (OC) leads the bioactive anti-tumor EVOO phenolic ingredients. A previous study reported the solid dispersion formulated OC with (+)-xylitol (OC-X) suppressed the in vivo progression and recurrence of the TNBC MDA-MB-231 cells. This study investigates the ability of OC-X formulation to suppress the in vivo heterogeneous BC initiation and progression utilizing advanced preclinical transgenic MMTV-PyVT and TNBC PDX mouse models. Furthermore, the clustering of the gene expression profiles in MMTV-PyVT and PDX mouse tumors treated with OC-X acquired by a Clariom S microarray analysis identified the distinctly affected genes. Several affected novel signature genes identified in response to OC-X treatments and proved overlapped in both mouse and human tumor models, shedding some lights toward understanding the OC anticancer molecular mechanism and assisting in predicting prospective clinical outcomes. This study provides molecular and preclinical evidences of OC-X potential as a nutraceutical suppressing heterogeneous TNBC model and offers preliminary gene-level therapeutic mechanistic insights.

Glutamine metabolism regulates FLIP expression and sensitivity to TRAIL in triple-negative breast cancer cells.

Project description:Glutamine plays an important role in the metabolism of tumor cells through its contribution to redox homeostasis, bioenergetics, synthesis of macromolecules, and signaling. Triple-negative breast cancers (TNBC) are highly metastatic and associated with poor prognosis. TNBC cells show a marked dependence on extracellular glutamine for growth. Herein we demonstrate that TNBC cells are markedly sensitized to tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)-induced apoptosis upon glutamine deprivation. Upregulation of pro-apoptotic TRAIL receptor 2 (TRAIL-R2/DR5) and downregulation of FLICE-inhibitory protein (FLIP) are observed in glutamine-deprived TNBC cells. Activation of the amino-acid-sensing kinase general control nonderepressible 2 (GCN2) upon glutamine deprivation is responsible for TRAIL-R2 upregulation through a signaling pathway involving ATF4 and CHOP transcription factors. In contrast, FLIP downregulation in glutamine-deprived TNBC occurs by a GCN2-independent mechanism. Importantly, silencing FLIP expression by RNA interference results in a marked sensitization of TNBC cells to TRAIL-induced apoptosis. In addition, pharmacological or genetic inhibition of transaminases increases TRAIL-R2 expression and downregulates FLIP levels, sensitizing TNBC cells to TRAIL. Interestingly, treatment with L-asparaginase markedly sensitizes TNBC cells to TRAIL through its glutaminase activity. Overall, our findings suggest that targeting the glutamine addiction phenotype of TNBC can be regarded as a potential antitumoral target in combination with agonists of proapoptotic TRAIL receptors.
