PTEN-deficiency in luminal MMTV-ErbB-2 mouse model results in dramatic acceleration in mammary tumorigenesis/metastasis

ABSTRACT: Overexpression and/or amplification of the ErbB-2 oncogene, as well as inactivation of the tumor suppressor PTEN, are two important genetic events in human breast carcinogenesis. To address the biological impact of conditional inactivation of PTEN on ErbB-2-induced mammary tumorigenesis, we generated a novel transgenic mouse model that utilizes the MMTV promoter to directly couple expression of activated ErbB-2 and Cre recombinase to the same mammary epithelial cell (MMTV-NIC). Disruption of PTEN in the mammary epithelium of the MMTV-NIC model system dramatically accelerated the formation of multifocal and highly metastatic mammary tumors, which exhibit homogenous pathology. PTEN-deficient/NIC tumorigenesis was associated with an increase in angiogenesis. Moreover, inactivation of PTEN in the MMTV-NIC mouse model resulted in hyperactivation of the PI3K/Akt signalling pathway. However, like the parental strain, tumors obtained from PTEN-deficient/NIC mice displayed histopathological and molecular features of the luminal-like subtype of breast cancer. Taken together, our findings provide important implications in understanding the molecular determinants of mammary tumorigenesis driven by PTEN deficiency and ErbB-2 activation, and could provide a valuable tool for testing the efficacy of therapeutic strategies that target these critical signalling pathways.

Distinct ErbB-2-coupled signalling pathways promote mammary tumors with unique pathological and transcriptional profiles

Project description:ErbB-2 overexpression and amplification occurs in 15 - 30% of human invasive breast carcinomas associated with poor clinical prognosis. Previously, we have demonstrated that four ErbB-2/Neu tyrosine-autophosphorylation sites within the cytoplasmic tail of the receptor recruit distinct adaptor proteins and are sufficient to mediate transforming signals in vitro. Two of these sites representing the Grb2 (Neu-YB) and Shc (Neu-YD) binding sites can induce mammary tumourigenesis and metastasis. Here we show that Neu-YC and Neu-YE transgenic mice develop metastatic mammary tumours. A detailed comparison of pathological and transcriptional profiles among all Neu mutant mouse models revealed that Neu-YC, -YD and -YE mammary tumours shared similar pathological and transcriptional features correlating with their capacity to signal through a common adaptor like Shc. In contrast, the Neu-YB mouse model displayed a unique pathology with a high metastatic potential that correlates with a distinct transcriptional profile. We identified genes specifically expressed in YB-induced mammary tumours, including CXCL12/SDF-1α that promotes malignant tumour progression. Furthermore, Neu-YB tumour epithelial cells showed abundant intracellular CXCL12/SDF-1α protein, which may reflect the more aggressive phenotype among all Neu mutant mouse models. These findings indicate that activation of distinct Neu-coupled signalling pathways has a deep impact on the biological behaviour of Neu-induced tumours.

Gene expression of spheres made from mammary tumors of FRS2b hetero mice and knock-out mice

Project description:Precancerous tissue microenvironment is thought to be important for tumorigenesis when cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) begin to grow, though underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we uncovered critical roles of luminal progenitor cells expressing FRS2β, an inhibitory adaptor for ErbB signaling, to create the cytokines-rich CSC niche in mammary tissues. Deficiency of FRS2β greatly decreased mammary tumorigenesis with decreased tumor stroma in mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV)-ErbB2 mice. Moreover, FRS2β-deficient precancerous mammary tissues did not allow tumorigenesis derived from xenografted wild type FRS2β tumor cells. Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) 1 and CXC chemokine ligand (CXCL) 12, stemness- and stroma-inducing cytokines, respectively, were expressed at low levels in FRS2β-deficient precancerous mammary cells. Treatment with inhibitors against these cytokines in precancerous mice greatly decreased tumorigenic potential. In addition, human breast cancer tissues in which FRS2β is highly expressed in tumor cells harbor more stroma, and are associated with poor prognosis. Thus, cytokines-rich CSC niche and tumor microenvironment induced by FRS2β expressed in luminal progenitor cells and tumor cells play important roles for tumorigenesis.

Neratinib, a pan ERBB/HER inhibitor, restores sensitivity of PTEN-null, BRAFV600E melanoma to BRAF/MEK inhibition

Project description:Approximately 50% of melanomas harbor an activating BRAFV600E mutation. Standard of care involves a combination of inhibitors targeting mutant BRAF and MEK1/2, the substrate for BRAF in the MAPK pathway. PTEN loss of function mutations occur in 40% of BRAFV600E melanomas, resulting in increased PI3K/AKT activity that enhances resistance to BRAF/MEK combination inhibitor therapy. To compare the response of PTEN null to PTEN wild type cells in an isogenic background, CRISPR was used to knock out PTEN a melanoma cell line that harbors a BRAFV600E mutation. RNA sequencing and functional kinome analysis revealed the loss of PTEN led to an induction of FOXD3 and an increase in expression of the FOXD3 target gene, ERBB3/HER3. Inhibition of BRAF and MEK1/2 in PTEN null, BRAFV600Ecells dramatically induced expression of ERBB3/HER3 relative to wild type cells. A synergy screen of epigenetic modifiers and kinase inhibitors in combination with BRAFi/MEKi identified the pan ERBB/HER inhibitor, neratinib, as reversing the resistance observed in PTEN null, BRAFV600Ecells. The findings indicate that PTEN null BRAFV600E melanoma exhibits increased reliance on ERBB/HER signaling when treated with clinically approved BRAFi/MEKi combinations. Future studies are warranted to test neratinib reversal of resistance in patient melanomas expressing ERBB3/HER3 in combination with its dimerization partner ERBB2/HER2.

RNA-seq to investigate impact of treatment of KRAS mutant A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells with the multi-ERBB inhibitor Neratinib

Project description:KRAS mutation is widely presumed to confer independence from upstream RTK signalling, however emerging evidence from mouse models of lung cancer suggests that ERBB RTKs may amplify signalling through RAS isoforms and participate in mutant RAS-driven lung cancer. This is one of 3 datasets where we examined the transcriptional impact of treatment of KRAS mutant human lung cancer cell lines with the multi-ERBB inhibitor Neratinib
