Project description:The Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor is the central entry point for SARS-Cov2. Several SAR-Cov2 substrains have developed mutations in their spike protein to maximize their use of ACE2, e.g. to strengthen ACE2 binding for increased uptake or adapt to specific amino acid properties of ACE2 to cross the species barrier. But little is known about the effect of host regulators on ACE2 and subsequently their impact on SARS-Cov2 infection. Here we identify the E3 ligase MDM2 as a ACE2 modulator. The knockout of MDM2 induced a strong pro-viral effect specific for SARS-Cov2 and we could see the increase of ACE2 levels. This effect is likely dependent on the ubiquitination site Lysine 788, which MDM2 uses to induce proteasomal degradation of ACE2. Substituting this amino acid led to increased ACE2 levels and increased SARS-CoV2 infection facilitated by enhanced SARS-Cov2 uptake.

Project description:MDM2 inhibitor remarkably induced biomineralization in hDPSCs but it remained the problem that p53 activation is insufficient due to MDM2-p53 autoregulatory feedback loop. To overcome the limitation of the MDM2 inhibitors, we applied proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC), a technology that degrades a protein of interest (POI) by intracellular ubiquitin-proteasome system. Hence, we propose a strategy to induce hard tissue regeneration by MDM2-targeting PROTAC technology. We selected Nutlin-3 of POI ligand among various MDM2 inhibitors based on the screening process, and the selected CRBN of E3 ligase ligand. The MDM2-PROTAC synthesis platform was designed by each ligand combination. By performing the degradation test for selected compounds, we evaluated the characteristics of the developed MDM2 PROTAC such as the maximal degradation concentration (DCmax), the half of maximal degradation concentration (DC50), and half-lifetime. To investigate gene expression profiling of MDM2-targeting small molecules, we conducted RNA-sequencing under MDM2 PROTAC and Nutlin-3 (POI ligand) treated conditions. We not only confirmed a robust effect on biomineralization by MDM2-targeting small molecules but also demonstrated the potent osteogenic differentiation ability of MDM2 PROTAC when compared to an MDM2 inhibitor. MDM2-PROTAC significantly increased mRNA levels of osteogenic differentiation marker genes. Also, the significant bone generation effect of MDM2 PROTAC was validated in an ovariectomy (OVX)-induced osteoporosis animal model. Through these results, it is expected that a new therapeutic modality for hard tissue regeneration will be possible, and the application range of the PROTAC system can be expanded.

Project description:Immune checkpoint therapy has improved outcome of patients with advanced melanoma, however the tumor becomes refractory in a large number of patients. Therefore, novel combination therapies that enhance anti-melanoma immunity are highly desirable. We studied the impact of MDM2 (mouse double minute 2) inhibition, leading to p53 activation, on response to anti-PD-1 immunotherapy in melanoma. MDM2 treatment caused upregulation of MHC II and IL-15 in melanoma cells in a p53 dependent manner. Survival of melanoma bearing mice improved upon combining anti-PD1 and MDM2 inhibition in vivo. Lack of IL-15Rα in T cells abrogated the beneficial effect of the combined treatment. This gene expression study was performed to determine potential effects of MDM2 inhibition on genes in the melanoma microenvironment.

Project description:The MDM2 oncoprotein is an essential component of the p53 pathway. Although MDM2 has been widely described as a major negative regulator of the p53 tumor suppressor, growing evidences support the notion that Mdm2 functions are also mediated through p53 independent mechanisms. We found that MDM2 is recruited on chromatin. By ChIP-Seq (using MDM2 antibody) of H1299 cells exhibiting MDM2 recruitment on chromatin, we identified at the whole genome level MDM2 binding sites. Both input and IPped-DNA were exhaustively sequenced and mapped on human genome

Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a class of noncoding RNAs produced by a non-canonical form of alternative splicing called back-splicing. To investigate a potential role of circRNAs in the p53 pathway, we analyzed RNA-seq data from colorectal cancer cell lines (HCT116, RKO and SW48) in the presence or absence of DNA damage. Surprisingly, unlike the strong p53-dependent induction of hundreds of p53-induced mRNAs, only a few circRNAs were induced from the p53-induced genes. Circ-MDM2, an annotated circRNA from the MDM2 locus, was one of the handful of circRNAs that originated from a p53-induced gene. Given the central role of MDM2 in suppressing p53 protein levels and p53 activity, we investigated the function of circ-MDM2. Knocking down circ-MDM2 with siRNAs that targeted the circ-MDM2 junction and had no effect on linear MDM2 mRNA, resulted in increased basal p53 levels and growth defects in vitro and in vivo. Consistent with these results, transcriptome profiling showed increased expression of several direct p53 targets, reduced Rb phosphorylation and defects in G1-S progression upon silencing circ-MDM2. Our results reveal the role of a novel circRNA by which the MDM2 locus suppresses p53 levels and cell cycle progression.

Project description:Ventoclax-based combinations are a new standard of care for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are not eligible for intensive chemotherapy, but not all patients respond to these treatments, and those who do may relapse. MDM2 inhibitors are promising therapeutics for treating TP53 wild-type tumors, including most de novo AML cases, but clinical trials have shown modest and variable clinical activity. Functional genomic data suggest that venetoclax and the MDM2 inhibitor, idasanutlin, may be ineffective against monocytic leukemia (FAB M4/M5) or leukemia cells with a high immune signature. We hypothesize upregulated myeloid transcription factors and enrichment of certain environmental cues that confer intrinsic and extrinsic drug resistance to these cells. We show that monocytic leukemia cells express a high level of CEBPB and CEBPB overexpression confers drug resistance to a broad range of BH3 mimetics, venetoclax combinations, and MDM2 inhibitors by downregulating CASP3, CASP6, BCL2, and p53 pathway targets, while upregulating MCL1, BCL2A1, and the NFKB/IL1/TNFA pathway. Moreover, leukemia monocytes can extrinsically protect leukemia blasts from venetoclax and MDM2 inhibition by secreting elevated IL1 and TNFA, which drive myelo/monocytic differentiation and upregulate inflammatory cytokines and receptors, including IL1/TNFA pathway in an autoregulatory loop. Remarkably, IL1A/IL1B and TNFA uniquely upregulate CEBPB expression in M4/M5 cells and protect them from apoptosis induced by venetoclax and MDM2 inhibitors. Conversely, TNFA treatment enhances extrinsic apoptosis in M0/M1 leukemia cells. Inhibitors of IRAK or MAPK14 (p38), which block IL1/TNFA signaling, showed synergistic cytotoxicity in M4/M5 AML when combined with venetoclax and idasanutlin. In summary, we described a targetable, positive feedback loop between CEBPB and IL1/TNFA in monocytic leukemia that drives intrinsic and extrinsic drug resistance to BCL2 and MDM2 inhibitors, offering promising therapeutic strategies to enhance treatment efficacy for monocytic leukemia.

Project description:Adult cardiomyocytes (CM) are terminally differentiated cells with minimal regenerative capacity, making cardiac tissue particularly vulnerable to injury. Thus, defining the roadblocks responsible for adult CM cell cycle arrest lies at the core of developing therapies to regenerate myocyte loss following injurious events such as myocardial infarction. We have previously shown that inactivating the p53/Mdm2 tumor suppressor circuitry, specifically in the heart (using the Cre-loxP recombination system of bacteriophage P1), can allow differentiated CMs to regain proliferative capacity, through an upregulation of factors involved in cell cycle re-entry. These factors are repressed in quiescent CMs, in part through the action of microRNAs (miRNAs). Notably, knockout of either p53 or Mdm2 individually was insufficient to promote CM proliferation. Therefore, we hypothesized that inactivation of p53/Mdm2-regulated miRNAs could promote the expression of cell cycle activators and induce proliferation of adult murine CMs. To identify miRNAs regulated by both p53 and Mdm2, total miRNA expression profiles from cardiac specific p53/Mdm2 double knockout (DKO) mouse hearts were compared with those from cardiac-specific single knockouts (p53KO and Mdm2KO), and vehicle-injected controls using the Nanostring nCounter mouse miRNA expression assay. This revealed a profile of 11 significantly downregulated miRNAs in the proliferative DKO hearts (versus vehicle-injected control), that were enriched for mRNA targets involved in cell cycle regulation. In vitro studies have demonstrated that knockdown of these 11 miRNAs in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes can increase the occurrence of cytokinetic events. Ultimately, we aim to inject antagomirs targeting these miRNAs into animals post-myocardial infarction to determine the effect of p53/Mdm2-regulated miRNAs on heart function and CM proliferation in vivo.

Project description:CDK4 inhibitors have reached clinical approval for cancer therapy. In parallel, the p53 antagonist Mdm2 remains an attractive target for anti-cancer therapy, including numerous clinical studies. The genes encoding Mdm2 and CDK4 are frequently co-amplified in human malignancies, most notably in liposarcomas, suggesting their combined targeting for therapy. Here we show, however, that small compounds that inhibit Mdm2 and CDK4 antagonize each other rather than synergize in their cytotoxicity towards sarcoma cells. CDK4 inhibition attenuates the induction of p53-responsive genes upon Mdm2 inhibition, and similar results were obtained when depleting Mdm2 and/or CDK4 with siRNA. CDK4 inhibitors also interfered with p53 activity in response to DNA damage. CDK4 inhibition did not reduce p53 binding or histone acetylation to promoters, but rather attenuated the subsequent recruitment of RNA polymerase II. The complexes of p53 and Mdm2, as well as CDK4 and Cyclin D1, physically associated with each other. Upon combined inhibition of Mdm2 and CDK4/6, the interaction of this complex was impaired. Thus, the CDK4-Cyclin D1 complex plays a key role in enabling the transcription of p53 target genes. Taken together, our results raise caution regarding the combination of CDK4 inhibitors with Mdm2 antagonists or conventional DNA-damaging chemotherapeutics in the clinics. Moreover, they suggest a hitherto unknown role for CDK4-cyclin D1 complex in sustaining p53 activity, possibly focusing p53-mediated transcription on actively proliferating cells.
