Project description:Osteosarcomas (OS) have highly chaotic genomes, yet their cancer drivers are poorly defined. Given that cancer genes are conserved among mammals, cross-species genomics of naturally arising cancers opens a powerful approach to identifying oncogenic drivers to broaden the therapeutic opportunities for aggressive cancers. Here, we utilized a dog-to-human cross-species genomics combined with gain- and loss-of-function analysis to uncover novel OS driver genes.

Project description:Nuclear receptor binding SET domain protein 3 (NSD3), a gene located within the 8p11-p12 amplicon frequently detected in cancers, encodes a chromatin modulator and an attractive onco-target. However, agent that can effectively suppress the NSD3-mediated oncogenic actions is currently lacking. We report an NSD3-targeting proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC), termed MS9715, which achieves effective and specific depletion of NSD3 and interacting partners (including cMyc) in tumor cells. MS9715-induced NSD3 degradation relies on BI-9321, an antagonist module binding the PWWP1 domain of NSD3, and VHL, which is chemically conjugated to BI-9321 via a linker and VHL ligand module. Importantly, compared to BI-9321, a recently disclosed NSD3 antagonist, MS9715 is more potent in suppressing growth of the NSD3-dependent hematological cancer including models of MLL-rearranged acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) and multiple myeloma (MM), and uniquely mediate simultaneous depletion of cellular NSD3 and cMyc. Transcriptome profiling further demonstrates effective actions of MS9715 but not BI-9321 in suppressing both NSD3- and cMyc-associated gene-expression programs, a phenomenon reminiscent of the CRISPR/cas9-mediated knockout (KO) of NSD3. Together, this study reports a first-in-class NSD3 PROTAC/degrader suitable for co-suppressing NSD3- and cMyc-related oncogenic nodes in cancer cells, suggesting a novel therapeutic strategy.

Project description:Amplification of chromosomal region 8p11-12 is a frequent genetic alteration implicated in the etiology of lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC). FGFR1 (fibroblast growth factor receptor 1) is the main candidate driver within this region. However, clinical trials evaluating FGFR1 inhibition as a targeted therapy have been unsuccessful. Here we identify the H3K36 methyltransferase NSD3 (nuclear receptor binding SET domain protein 3), an 8p11-12-localized gene, as a key regulator of LUSC tumorigenesis. In contrast to other 8p11-12 candidate LUSC drivers, increased NSD3 expression strongly correlates with gene amplification. Ablation of NSD3, but not FGFR1, attenuates tumor growth and extends survival in a potent LUSC mouse model. We identify NSD3T1232A as an LUSC-associated variant that increases H3K36 dimethylation (H3K36me2) catalytic activity in vitro and in vivo. Structural dynamic analyses reveal that the T1232A substitution elicits localized mobility changes throughout NSD3’s catalytic domain to relieve auto-inhibition and increase H3 substrate accessibility. NSD3T1232A expression in vivo in LUSC mouse models accelerates tumorigenesis and decreases overall survival. Pathologic generation of H3K36me2 by NSD3T1232A rewires the chromatin landscape to promote oncogenic gene expression programming. Accordingly, depletion of NSD3 and H3K36me2 in patient derived xenografts (PDXs) from primary LUSC harboring NSD3 amplification or the NSD3T1232A variant attenuate neoplastic growth. Finally, NSD3-regulated LUSC PDXs are markedly and selectively sensitive to bromodomain inhibition (BETi). Together, our work identifies NSD3 as a principal 8p11-12 amplicon-associated oncogenic driver in LUSC and suggests that NSD3-dependency renders LUSC therapeutically vulnerable to BETi.

Project description:RNA-sequencing analysis of control (shCon) and NSD3-knockdown (shNSD3) MDA-MB-231 cell lines. NSD3 (also known as WHSC1L1), a histone H3 lysine K36methyltransferase, is highly amplificated in several human cancers, including breast carcinomas. Results provide insight into the transcriptional regulation of NSD3 in breast cancer.

Project description:The lysine methyltransferase NSD3 is required for the expression of key neural crest transcription factors and the migration of neural crest cells. Nevertheless, a complete view of the genes dependent upon NSD3 for expression and the developmental processes impacted by NSD3 in the neural crest was lacking. We used RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to profile transcripts differentially expressed after NSD3 knockdown in chick premigratory neural crest cells, identifying 674 genes. Gene Ontology and gene set enrichment analyses further support a requirement for NSD3 during neural crest development and show that NSD3 knockdown also upregulates ribosome biogenesis. To validate our results, we selected three genes not previously associated with neural crest development, Astrotactin-1 (Astn1), Dispatched-3 (Disp3), and Tropomyosin-1 (Tpm1). Using whole mount in situ hybridization, we show that premigratory neural crest cells express these genes and that NSD3 knockdown downregulates (Astn1 and Disp3) and upregulates (Tpm1) their expression, consistent with RNA-seq results. Altogether, this study identifies novel putative regulators of neural crest development and provides insight into the transcriptional consequences of NSD3 in the neural crest, with implications for cancer.

Project description:The bromodomain and extraterminal (BET) protein BRD4 is a therapeutic target in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Here, we demonstrate that the AML maintenance function of BRD4 requires its interaction with NSD3, which belongs to a subfamily of H3K36 methyltransferases. Unexpectedly, AML cells were found to only require a short isoform of NSD3 that lacks the methyltransferase domain. We show that NSD3-short is an adaptor protein that sustains leukemia by linking BRD4 to the CHD8 chromatin remodeler, by using a PWWP chromatin reader module, and by employing an acidic transactivation domain. Genetic targeting of NSD3 or CHD8 mimics the phenotypic and transcriptional effects of BRD4 inhibition. Furthermore, BRD4, NSD3, and CHD8 colocalize across the AML genome, and each is released from super-enhancer regions upon chemical inhibition of BET bromodomains. These findings suggest that BET inhibitors exert therapeutic effects in leukemia by evicting BRD4-NSD3-CHD8 complexes from chromatin to suppress transcription.
