Project description:EZH2 inhibitors have been developed to treat certain cancers. To maximize the anticancer acttivity of EZH2 inhibition, we combined an EZH2 inhibitor EPZ6438 with YM155, which leads to dramatic cell death. We used microarrays to detail the global gene expression profiles.

Project description:Mutations within the catalytic domain of the histone methyltransferase (HMT) EZH2 have been identified in subsets of Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) patients. These genetic alterations are hypothesized to confer an oncogenic dependency on EZH2 enzymatic activity in these cancers. We previously reported the discovery of a potent, selective, S-adenosyl-methionine-competitive and orally bioavailable small molecule inhibitor of EZH2, EPZ-6438. EPZ-6438 selectively inhibits intracellular lysine 27 of histone H3 (H3K27) methylation in a concentration- and time-dependent manner in both EZH2 wild type and mutant lymphoma cells. Inhibition of H3K27 trimethylation (H3K27Me3) led to selective cell killing of human lymphoma cell lines bearing EZH2 catalytic domain point mutations. Treatment of xenograft-bearing mice with EPZ-6438 leads to dose-dependent tumor growth inhibition and eradication of genetically altered NHL with correlative diminution of H3K27Me3 levels in tumors and selected normal tissues. Mice dosed orally with EPZ-6438 for 28 days remained tumor free for up to 63 day after stopping compound treatment in two EZH2 mutant xenograft models. These data confirm the dependency of mutant NHL on EZH2 activity and portend the utility of EZH2-targeted drugs for the treatment of these genetically defined cancers. To identify potential biomarker and gain mechanistic insights in EPZ6438 treated lymphoma, lymphoma cell lines with or without EZH2 Y641 mutation were treated with EPZ6438 at Lowest Cytotoxic Concentration (LCC) and 10xLCC. Transcriptomes were profiled on Affemetrix U133 Plus2 chips. Differentially expressed genes and pathways upon compound treatment were anayzed. Lymphoma cell lines WSU-DLCL2, SU-DHL6, Pfeiffer, and Karpas422 were treated by EPZ6438 for 2 days, 4 days and 6 days. Treatment doses are LCC and 10xLCC of each cell lines. KARPAS_422, SUDHL6, and WSU_DLCL2 have the EZH2 Y641 mutation. PFEIFFER does not have the EZH2 Y641 mutation.

Project description:Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inibitors suppress cell proliferation of prostate cancer, but the detailed mechanisms are unknown. Moreover, HDAC includes 18 family members, namely HDAC1-11 and SIRT1-7, and differences of effects on prostate cancer proliferation among these enzymes are also unknown. Thus, we clarified differences of gene expression between prostate cancer cell line (LNCaP) treated with pan-HDAC inhibitors (TSA and OBP-801) or selective HDAC inhibitor (NCC-149, HDAC8-specific inhibitor)using cDNA microarray. LNCaP treated with TSA (1μM), NCC149 (2μM), OBP-801 (200nM) or DMSO for 24hrs, RNA was extracted from cells, and cDNA array was performed.

Project description:Two genes have a synthetic lethal relationship when silencing or inhibition of one gene is only lethal in the context of a mutation or activation of the second gene. This situation offers an attractive therapeutic strategy, as inhibition of such a gene will only trigger cell death in tumor cells with an activated second oncogene but spare normal cells without activation of the second oncogene. Here we present evidence that CDK2 is synthetic lethal to neuroblastoma cells with MYCN amplification and overexpression. Neuroblastomas are childhood tumors with an often lethal outcome. Twenty percent of the tumors have MYCN amplification and these tumors are ultimately refractory to any therapy. Targeted silencing of CDK2 by three RNA interference techniques induced apoptosis in MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma cell lines, but not in MYCN single copy cells. Silencing of MYCN abrogated this apoptotic response in MYCN-amplified cells. Inversely, silencing of CDK2 in MYCN single copy cells did not trigger apoptosis, unless a MYCN transgene was activated. The MYCN induced apoptosis after CDK2 silencing was accompanied by nuclear stabilization of P53 and mRNA profiling showed up-regulation of P53 target genes. Silencing of P53 rescued the cells from MYCN-driven apoptosis. The synthetic lethality of CDK2 silencing in MYCN activated neuroblastoma cells can also be triggered by inhibition of CDK2 with a small molecule drug. Treatment of neuroblastoma cells with Roscovitine, a CDK inhibitor, at clinically achievable concentrations induced MYCN-dependent apoptosis. The synthetic lethal relation between CDK2 and MYCN indicates CDK2 inhibitors as potential MYCN-selective cancer therapeutics. CDK2 shRNA in a tet repressor system was stably transfected in the IMR32 cell line. Time course analysis was performed in triplicate after induction of CDK2 shRNA at 5 time points.

Project description:Cyclin E1 (CCNE1) is amplified in various tumor types including high-grade serous ovarian cancer where it is associated with poor clinical outcome. We have demonstrate that suppression of the Cyclin E1 partner kinase, CDK2, induces apoptosis in a CCNE1 amplicon-dependent manner. Little is known of mechanisms of resistance to CDK inhibitors. We therefore generated OVCAR-3 sublines with reduced sensitivity to CDK2 inhibitors and profiled by gene expression microarrays. Arrayed samples included parental OVCAR-3 cells (n = 4 replicates) and five independently derived sublines resistant to PHA-533533 (OVCAR3-533533-R1, -R3, -R5, -R6, -R7). The resistant cell lines were arrayed after drug selection (P5) and after continued passage in the absence of inhibitor (P10+).

Project description:The selective CDK2 inhibitor BLU-222 was evaluated for mechanisms of response in the context of ovarian and breast cancer models. Using sensors of cellular CDK activity, it was found that sensitivity to either CDK4/6 or CDK2 inhibition is related to the differential dependence on a single CDK for G1/S transition. Unlike CDK4/6 inhibitors, BLU-222 was able to robustly inhibit proliferation through cell cycle inhibition in both G1 and G2 phases. However, it remained possible for cells to re-enter the cell cycle upon drug withdrawal. The anti-proliferative strength and impact on G1/S versus G2/M accumulation was found to be mediated by the RB tumor suppressor, as determined by functional perturbation strategies. To broaden the sensitivity to CDK2 inhibition, combinatorial drug screens were performed that identified both synergistic (e.g., CDK4/6 inhibitors) and antagonistic (e.g., WEE1 inhibitors) relationships. Models that were exceptionally sensitive to CDK2 inhibition displayed coordinate expression of Cyclin E1 and P16INK4A, an endogenous CDK4/6 inhibitor. Functional studies demonstrated that P16INK4A and CDK4/6 activity were key mediators of sensitivity to BLU-222. Clinical gene and protein expression analysis revealed a positive correlation between Cyclin E1 and P16INK4A and that ~25% of ovarian cancers exhibited coordinate expression of Cyclin E, P16INK4A, and RB, indicative of strong sensitivity to CDK2 inhibition. Together, this work advances a precision strategy for the use of CDK2 inhibitors in the context of ovarian and breast cancers.

Project description:Background: Advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is characterized by genomic perturbations of key cell cycle regulators. Oncogenic activation of CDK4/6 results in RB1 inactivation and cell cycle progression. Given that single-agent CDK4/6 inhibitor therapy failed to show clinical activity in advanced GIST, we evaluated strategies for maximizing response to therapeutic CDK4/6 inhibition. Methods: Targeted next-generation sequencing and multiplexed protein imaging were used to detect cell cycle regulator aberrations in GIST clinical samples. The impact of inhibitors of CDK2, CDK4, and CDK2/4/6 was determined through cell proliferation and protein detection assays. CDK-inhibitor resistance mechanisms were characterized in GIST cell lines after long-term exposure. Results: We identify recurrent genomic aberrations in cell cycle regulators causing co-activation of the CDK2 and CDK4/6 pathways in clinical GIST samples. Therapeutic co-targeting of CDK2 and CDK4/6 is synergistic in GIST cell lines with intact RB1, through inhibition of RB1 hyperphosphorylation and cell proliferation. Moreover, RB1 inactivation and a novel oncogenic cyclin D1 resulting from an intragenic rearrangement (CCND1::chr11.g:70025223) are mechanisms of acquired CDK inhibitor resistance in GIST. Conclusions: These studies establish the biologic rationale for CDK2 and CDK4/6 co-inhibition as therapeutic strategy in patients with advanced GIST, including metastatic GIST progressing on tyrosine kinase inhibitors.
