Targeting integrated metabolic and epigenetic pathways in lethal childhood ependymomas

ABSTRACT: Childhood Posterior Fossa-A ependymomas (PFAs) have limited treatment options. Integrated metabolic/epigenetic analyses performed to discover therapeutic targets in PFAs demonstrated enhanced glycolysis and TCA-cycle metabolism. PFAs exhibit low H3K27me3, as in H3K27M gliomas. Therefore, we subjected them to panobinostat which kills H3K27M cells, along with the metabolic inhibitor metformin. Combined treatment increased H3K27me3, suppressed metabolism and demonstrated potent therapeutic efficacy in vitro and in vivo, suggesting promising therapeutic strategies.

Cxorf67-FLAG co-immunoprecipitation analysis from 293T cells

Project description:The regulation of gene expression is controlled in part by post-translational modifications to histone proteins. Methylation at histone H3, lysine 27 (H3K27), which is catalyzed by Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2), is associated with silenced chromatin. Previous studies have identified dysregulation of H3K27 methylation in pediatric diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas (DIPGs), the majority of which feature mutation of lysine 27 to methionine. This “oncohistone” potently inhibits PRC2 activity and leads to a global reduction in H3K27 methylation. Similar to DIPG, posterior fossa type A (PFA) ependymomas also show low levels of H3K27 methylation. Although PFAs do not possess the H3K27M oncohistone mutation, they do show increased expression of Cxorf67. Interestingly, Cxorf67 contains a C-terminal sequence that resembles the sequence surrounding H3K27, and we find that this portion of Cxorf67 inhibits PRC2 activity to an even greater extent than the H3K27M oncohistone. Thus, we suggest re-naming Cxorf67 as EZHIP (Enhancer of Zeste Homologs Inhibitory Protein). Furthermore, when expressed in 293T cells, Cxorf67 interacts with several members of PRC2 and induces changes in H3K27 methylation patterns that mirror the changes in H3K27 methylation induced by expression of H3K27M. We propose that PFAs have dysregulated H3K27 methylation by a mechanism that involves inhibition of PRC2 by Cxorf67, which could drive tumorigenesis.

Epigenomic Alterations Define Lethal CIMP positive Ependymomas of Infancy

Project description:Ependymomas are common childhood brain tumors that occur throughout the nervous system, but are most common in the pediatric hindbrain. Current standard therapy comprises surgery and radiation, but not cytotoxic chemotherapy as it does not further increase survival. Whole-genome and whole-exome sequencing of 47 hindbrain ependymomas reveals an extremely low mutation rate, and zero significant recurrent somatic SNVs. While devoid of recurrent SNVs and focal copy number aberrations, poor prognosis hindbrain ependymomas exhibit a CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP). Transcriptional silencing driven by CpG methylation converges exclusively on targets of the polycomb repressor complex 2 (PRC2) that represses expression of differentiation genes through tri-methylation of H3K27. CIMP-positive (CIMP+) hindbrain ependymomas are responsive to clinical drugs that target either DNA or H3K27 methylation both in vitro and in vivo. We conclude that epigenetic modifiers are the first rational therapeutic candidates for this deadly malignancy, which is epigenetically de-regulated but genetically bland. 10 primary posterior fossa ependymomas have been analyzed

EZHIP / CXorf67 mimics K27M mutated oncohistones and functions as an intrinsic inhibitor of PRC2 function in aggressive posterior fossa ependymoma

Project description:Posterior fossa A (PFA) ependymomas comprise one out of nine molecular groups of ependymoma. PFA tumors are mainly diagnosed in infants and young children, show a poor prognosis and are characterized by a lack of the repressive histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) mark. Recently, we reported CXorf67 overexpression as hallmark of PFA ependymoma and showed that CXorf67 can interact with EZH2 thereby inhibiting polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2). Here, we report that the inhibitory mechanism of this interaction is similar as in diffuse midline gliomas harboring H3K27M mutations. A small, highly conserved peptide sequence located in the C-terminal region of CXorf67 mimics the H3K27M peptide and binds to the SET domain of EZH2. This interaction blocks EZH2 methyltransferase activity and causes H3K27 hypomethylation, an oncogenic mechanism that may be exploited for targeted therapy in PFA ependymoma. Based on its function, we have renamed CXorf67 into EZH2 Inhibitory Protein (EZHIP).
