Project description:Mouse models of cancer recapitulate many of the molecular and biological features of the human disease. We sought to exploit these experimental merits in a systematic comparative proteomics search for circulating proteins associated with lung tumor development. In-depth quantitative proteomics was applied to plasmas from three mouse models of lung adenocarcinoma driven by mutant EGFR or Kras or induced by urethane exposure and a mouse model of small cell lung cancer driven by loss of Trp53 and Rb. To further refine our lung cancer-specific and broad carcinoma signatures, we intersected these lung cancer proteome profiles with those from other well-established mouse models of pancreatic, ovarian, colon, prostate and breast cancer, as well as two mouse models of inflammation. A set of proteins regulated by Titf1/Nkx2-1, a master transcription factor in cells from the peripheral airways and a known lineage-survival oncogene in lung cancer was identified in plasmas of mouse models of lung adenocarcinoma. An EGFR network of proteins was discerned in the plasma of mice with lung tumors driven by a mutant human EGFR. Levels of these proteins returned toward baseline upon treatment with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Moreover, a distinct plasma signature was uncovered in the Trp53/Rb mutant small cell lung cancer model that included a set of proteins associated with neuroendocrine development. Our studies have identified novel plasma protein signatures among molecularly or histopathologically defined lung cancer subtypes.

Our studies have identified novel plasma protein signatures among molecularly or histopathologically defined lung cancer subtypes. siRNA transfection experiments were performed in NCI-H3255 and HCC4019 lung adenocarcinoma cell lines using ON-TARGETplus SMARTpool small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) targeting TITF1 (L-019105-01-0005) along with a negative control (ON-TARGETplus siCONTROL nontargeting siRNA pool; D-001810-10-05) obtained from Dharmacon. 400000 cells were seeded in antibiotic-free RPMI-1640 media supplemented with 10% FBS, in 6-well culture plates. The next day, cells were transfected at a final concentration of 100nM siRNA using 6ul DharmaFECT 1 (Dharmacon) according to the manufacturer's instructions. 72-hours post-transfection, RNA was harvested using Trizol (Invitrogen) and protein using RIPA buffer for microarray expression and western blotting, respectively. RNA from TITF1 knockdown and control experiments was profiled by the MSKCC Genomics Core using the Illumina Human HT-12 v3.0 array platform according to manufacturer's instructions. Two biological replicates were profiled for each condition. Resulting data files were exported using GenomeStudio software, log2 transformed, quantile-normalized and analyzed using Partek Genomics Suite (v6.5). Average values of replicates for each gene were then compared between the TITF1 knockdown and non-targeting treatments for each cell line to identify candidate TITF1 regulated genes.

Project description:Ribosome profiling was applied for the first time on S. meliloti to generate a translatome map. Our work reveals active translation for several ORFs including small ORFs (sORFs). In addition, our ribosome profiling data led to the discovery of several translated non-annotated sORFs. Translation of these non-annotated sORFs was validated by proteomics and western blotting.

Project description:Protein-RNA interactions are fundamental to core biological processes, such as mRNA splicing, localization, degradation and translation. We developed a photoreactive nucleotide-enhanced UV crosslinking and oligo(dT) purification approach to identify the mRNA-bound proteome using quantitative proteomics and to display the protein occupancy on mRNA transcripts by next-generation sequencing. Application to a human embryonic kidney cell line identified close to 800 proteins. Close to one third of these proteins, were neither previously annotated nor could be functionally predicted to bind RNA. Protein occupancy profiling provides a transcriptome-wide catalog of potential cis-regulatory regions on mammalian mRNAs and showed that large stretches in 3' UTRs can be contacted by the mRNA-bound proteome, with numerous putative binding sites in regions harboring disease-associated nucleotide polymorphisms. Our observations indicate the presence of a large number of unexpected mRNA-binders with novel molecular functions participating in combinatorial post-transcriptional gene-expression networks. PARCLIP was performed as in Hafner et al. 2010 Cell 141, 129M-bM-^@M-^S141, with HEK293 cell lines stably expressing HIS/FLAG/HA-tagged ALKBH5, C17orf85, C22orf28, CAPRIN1, and ZC3H7B. We used 4-thiouridine (4SU) to enhance the crosslink and generated two PAR-CLIP cDNA libraries per protein.

Project description:Using unbiased kinase profiling, we identified protein kinase A (PKA) as an active kinase in small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Inhibition of PKA activity genetically, or pharmacologically by activation of the PP2A phosphatase, inhibits SCLC expansion in culture and in vivo. Conversely, GNAS (G-protein α subunit), a PKA activator that is genetically activated in a small subset of human SCLC, promotes SCLC development. Phosphoproteomic analyses identified many new PKA substrates and mechanisms of action. In particular, PKA activity is required for the propagation of SCLC cancer stem cells in transplantation studies. Broad proteomic analysis of recalcitrant cancers has the potential to uncover novel targetable signaling networks, such as the GNAS/PKA/PP2A axis in SCLC.

Project description:Mutations in 16 targetable oncogenic genes were examined using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and direct sequencing in 285 Chinese cervical cancers. Their clinicopathological relevance and prognostic significance was assessed. Ninety-two nonsynonymous somatic mutations were identified in 29.8% of the cancers. The mutation rates were as follows: PIK3CA (12.3%), KRAS (5.3%), HER2 (4.2%), FGFR3-TACC3 fusions (3.9%), PTEN (2.8%), FGFR2 (1.8%), FGFR3 (0.7%), NRAS (0.7%), HRAS (0.4%) and EGFR (0.4%). No mutations were detected in AKT1 or BRAF, and the fusions FGFR1-TACC1, EML4-ALK, CCDC6-RET and KIF5B-RET were not found in any of the cancers. RTK and RAS mutations were more common in non-squamous carcinomas than in squamous carcinomas (P=0.043 and P=0.042, respectively). RAS mutations were more common in young patients (<45 years) (13.7% vs. 7.7%, P=0.027). RTK mutations tended to be more common in young patients, whereas PIK3CA/PTEN/AKT mutations tended to be more common in old patients. RAS mutations were significantly associated with disease relapse. To our knowledge, this is the first comprehensive analysis of major targetable oncogenic mutations in a large cohort of cervical cancer cases. Our data reveal that a considerable proportion of patients with cervical cancers harbor known druggable mutations and might benefit from targeted therapy.

Project description:Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the most prevalent lung diseases, and involves persistent airflow limitation and incorporates both emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Cigarette smoking has been identified as the main risk factor for disease development and progression. In a basic model of COPD, the disease is initiated when the physiologic response mechanisms to cigarette smoke exposure are overwhelmed; for example, because of long-term exposure effects or other aging-related changes. In this parallel-group case-controlled clinical study we asked to what extent the different transitions in a chronic-exposure-to-disease model are reflected in the proteome and cellular transcriptome of induced sputum samples from the lung. For this, we selected 60 age- and gender-matched individuals for each of four study groups: current healthy smokers, current-smoker COPD patients, former smokers, and never smokers (a total of 240 individuals). Induced sputum was collected, the cell-free supernatant was analyzed by quantitative proteomics (isobaric-tag based), and the cellular mRNA fraction was analyzed by microarray-based expression profiling. The sputum proteome of current smokers (healthy or COPD patients) clearly reflected the common physiological responses to smoke exposure, including alterations in mucin/trefoil proteins (e.g., MUC5AC and TFF1/3up-regulation), peptidase regulators (e.g., TIMP1 up-regulation), and a prominent xenobiotic/oxidative stress response (e.g., NQO1 and ALDH3A1 up-regulation). The latter response also was observed in the sputum transcriptome, which additionally demonstrated an immune-related polarization change (toward a M2 signature). The (long-term) former smoker group showed nearly complete reversal of the observable biological effects. Thirteen differentially abundant proteins between the COPD and healthy smoker groups were identified. These abundant proteins included previously reported COPD-associated proteins (e.g., TIMP1 (up-regulation) and APOA1 (down-regulation)) and novel proteins such as C6orf58 and BPIFB1 (LPLUNC1) (both up-regulated in the COPD group compared with the healthy smokers). In summary, our study demonstrates that sputum proteomics/transcriptomics can capture the complex and reversible physiological response to cigarette smoke exposure, which appears to be only slightly modulated in early-stage COPD patients. The study has been registered on ClinicalTrials.gov with identifier NCT01780298.

Project description:Genetic alterations that activate protein kinase A (PKA) are found in many tumor types. Yet, their downstream oncogenic signaling mechanisms are poorly understood. We used global phosphoproteomics and kinase activity profiling to map conserved signaling outputs driven by a range of genetic changes that activate PKA in human cancer. Two signaling networks were identified downstream of PKA: RAS/MAPK components and an Aurora Kinase A (AURKA)/glycogen synthase kinase (GSK3) sub-network with activity toward MYC oncoproteins. Findings were validated in two PKA-dependent cancer models: a novel, patient-derived fibrolamellar carcinoma (FLC) line that expresses a DNAJ-PKAc fusion and a PKA-addicted melanoma model with a mutant type I PKA regulatory subunit. We identify PKA signals that can influence both de novo translation and stability of the proto-oncogene c-MYC. However, the primary mechanism of PKA effects on MYC in our cell models was translation and could be blocked with the eIF4A inhibitor zotatifin. This compound dramatically reduced c-MYC expression and inhibited FLC cell line growth in vitro. Thus, targeting PKA effects on translation is a potential treatment strategy for FLC and other PKA-driven cancers.

Project description:A large swath of the human proteome is dedicated to RNA homeostasis, but most RNA-binding proteins lack chemical probes1,2. Here, phenotypic screening led to the discovery of electrophilic small molecules that swiftly (within 4 h) and stereospecifically decrease transcripts encoding the androgen receptor (AR) and its major V7 splice variant in human prostate cancer cells. We show by chemical proteomics that these compounds covalently engage cysteine-145 on the RNA-binding protein NONO. Transcriptomics and proteomics profiling revealed that covalent NONO ligands suppress a discrete set of transcripts and proteins, including multiple oncogenic transcription factors, and impair the proliferation of cancer cells. These effects were not observed following genetic disruption of NONO, which instead blocked ligand activity. The covalent ligands promote accumulation of NONO in nuclear foci and at the first 5 splice site of immature transcripts, pointing to a trapping mechanism that may prevent compensatory action by the related protein PSPC1, which was found to increase in cancer cells following genetic or chemical perturbation of NONO. These findings, taken together, designate NONO as a druggable RNA-binding protein that can be co-opted by covalent small molecules to suppress pro-tumorigenic transcriptional networks.
