MDM2 and MDM4 are Therapeutic Vulnerabilities in Malignant Rhabdoid Tumors

ABSTRACT: Malignant rhabdoid tumors (MRT) are highly aggressive pediatric cancers that respond poorly to current therapies. We screened several MRT cell lines each with large-scale RNAi, CRISPR-Cas9, and small-molecule libraries to identify potential drug targets specific for these cancers. We discovered MDM2 and MDM4, the canonical negative regulators of p53, as significant vulnerabilities. Using two compounds currently in clinical development, idasanutlin and ATSP-7041, we show that MRT cells are more sensitive than other p53 wild-type cancer cell lines to MDM2 and dual MDM2/4 inhibition in vitro. These compounds cause significant upregulation of the p53 pathway in MRT cells, and sensitivity is ablated by CRISPR-Cas9-mediated inactivation of TP53. We show that loss of SMARCB1, a subunit of the SWI/SNF (BAF) complex mutated in nearly all MRT, sensitizes cells to MDM2 and MDM2/4 inhibition by enhancing p53-mediated apoptosis. Both MDM2 and MDM2/4 inhibition slowed MRT xenograft growth in vivo, with a five-day idasanutlin pulse causing marked regression of all xenografts including durable complete responses in 50% of mice. Together, these studies identify a genetic connection between mutations in the SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex and the tumor suppressor gene p53, and provide preclinical evidence to support the targeting of MDM2 and MDM4 in this often-fatal pediatric cancer.

Multiple interactions of the oncoprotein transcription factor MYC with the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeler

Project description:We report that even though SNF5 is the most well-documented SWI/SNF subunit to bind MYC, MYC can use multiple interaction surfaces to interact with SWI/SNF subunits independently of SNF5. In line with this, MYC interacts with the pan-SWI/SNF subunit, BAF155, in multiple SNF5-null malignant rhabdoid tumor (MRT) cell lines and almost all of MYC co-localizes with SWI/SNF subunits on chromatin in MRT. In the MRT cell line, G401, MYC binds to essential genes, although for a purpose that appears distinct from chromatin remodeling, and loss of MYC leads to widespread gene expression changes. Analysis of specific MYC-SWI/SNF target genes in G401 cells reveals that this group of genes are associated with core biological functions linked to protein synthesis and their transcription is directly activated by MYC. These data provide a solid framework in which to interrogate the influence of SWI/SNF on MYC function in cancers in which SWI/SNF or MYC are altered.

Genome-wide CRISPR screen of MOLM13 cells after Idasanutlin treatment

Project description:Targeting MDM2 is an attractive therapeutic approach for TP53 wild-type (WT) tumors, including the majority of de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cases. However, patients with WT TP53 have shown variable responses to MDM2 inhibitors in clinical trials, highlighting the need to identify additional biomarkers to maximize the chances of clinical success. We performed CRISPR-Cas9 knockout screens to identify genes that confer resistance to an MDM2 inhibitor idasanutlin. We did not find recurrent sgRNA hits or mutations in p53 downstream targets, such as CDKN1A, BAX, PMIAP1, and BBC3, apart from TP53. This was consistent with the results of individual knockout validation experiments and exome sequencing data from idasanutlin resistant cell lines generated form long-term exposure to low doses of idasanutlin. RNA-seq differential expression analysis revealed that major p53 downstream targets were upregulated in both idasanutlin-sensitive MOLM13 and resistant OCIAML3 cell lines after idasanutlin treatment. These findings highlight the pleiotropic functions of TP53 and suggest that the loss of individual downstream targets of TP53 does not significantly contribute to MDM2 inhibitor resistance.

Gene expression profiling in isogenic p53wt/p53ko Burkitt lymphoma cell line Seraphine after shRNA-mediated knock-down of p53 pathway members

Project description:We performed an shRNA-based RNAi interference screen targeting around 5,000 genes in eight Burkitt lymphoma cell lines. MDM4 and CDKN3 were essential genes in four p53 wild-type Burkitt lymphoma cell lines, but not in four p53 mutant cell lines. To investigate the effect of the gene knock-down on cellular pathways, we performed single knock-downs and studied the gene expression profile. p53 pathway was activated after knock down of MDM4 or its close homologue MDM2, while proliferation markers were downregulated.

Identification of the RNAs that bind with MDM2 by high-throughput RIP-seq in MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells

Project description:The E3 ligase MDM2 promotes tumor growth and progression by inducing ubiquitin-mediated degradation of P53 and other tumor suppressing proteins. Here, we identified an MDM2-interacting lncRNA NRON, which promotes tumor formation by suppressing both P53-dependent and independent pathways. NRON binds to MDM2 and MDMX (MDM4) via two different stem-loops respectively and induces their heterogenous dimerization, thereby enhancing the E3 ligase activity of MDM2 towards its tumor suppressing substrates, including P53, RBI and NFATI, etc.

Targeting MDM4/MDM2 binding interface for reactivation of p53 in cancer therapy

Project description:The aim of this experiment has been to investigate the transcriptional profile of HCT116 cells treated with Peptide-3 (Pep3) compared to untreated (NT), treated with solvent (DMSO) or with a mutated peptide (Pep3M) cells. Peptide-3 is a dodecapeptide able to interact with MDM2 at the levels of the interaction region of the MDM4 and MDM2 proteins, thereby interfering with the coopeartivy function of the proteins in the regulation of p53. This peptide is indeed able to specifically activate p53 and to cause apoptotis in different cancer cell lines and tumor growth inhibition in xenograft models.

Cooperation of Nutlin-3a and a Wip1 inhibitor to induce p53 activity

Project description:Targeting the Mdm2 oncoprotein by drugs has the potential of re-establishing p53 function and tumor suppression. However, Mdm2-antagonizing drug candidates, e. g. Nutlin-3a, often fail to abolish cancer cell growth sustainably. To overcome these limitations, we inhibited Mdm2 and simultaneously a second negative regulator of p53, the phosphatase Wip1/PPM1D. When combining Nutlin-3a with the Wip1 inhibitor GSK2830371 in the treatment of p53-proficient but not p53-deficient cells, we observed enhanced phosphorylation (Ser 15) and acetylation (Lys 382) of p53, increased expression of p53 target gene products, and synergistic inhibition of cell proliferation. Surprisingly, when testing the two compounds individually, largely distinct sets of genes were induced, as revealed by deep sequencing analysis of RNA. In contrast, the combination of both drugs led to an expression signature that largely comprised that of Nutlin-3a alone. Moreover, the combination of drugs, or the combination of Nutlin-3a with Wip1-depletion by siRNA, activated p53-responsive genes to a greater extent than either of the compounds alone. Simultaneous inhibition of Mdm2 and Wip1 enhanced cell senescence and G2/M accumulation. Taken together, the inhibition of Wip1 might fortify p53-mediated tumor suppression by Mdm2 antagonists.

CDK4 inhibition diminishes p53 activation by Mdm2-antagonists

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.

Susceptibility of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukaemia to STAT3 inhibition depends on p53 induction

Project description:Advances in the clinical management of pediatric B cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL) have dramatically improved outcomes for this disease. However, relapsed and high-risk disease still contribute to significant numbers of treatment failures. Development of new, broad range therapies is urgently needed for these cases. We previously reported the susceptibility of ETV6-RUNX1+ pediatric B-ALL to inhibition of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) activity. In the present study, we demonstrate that pharmacological or genetic inhibition of STAT3 results in p53 induction and that CRISPR-mediated TP53 knockout substantially reverses susceptibility to STAT3 inhibition. Furthermore, we demonstrate that sensitivity to STAT3 inhibition in patient-derived xenograft (PDX) B-ALL samples is not restricted to any particular disease subtype, but rather depends on TP53 status, the only resistant samples being TP53 mutant. Induction of p53 following STAT3 inhibition is MDM2-independent and exhibits synergistic in vitro and in vivo anti leukemia activity when combined with MDM2 inhibition. Taken together with the relatively low frequency of TP53 mutations in this disease, these data support the future development of combined STAT3/MDM2 inhibition in the therapy of refractory and relapsed pediatric B-ALL.
