Identification of 17-DMAG as a novel KDM4B inhibitor for combination therapy [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Histone lysine demethylases (KDMs) are emerging as therapeutic targets in cancer. Development of potent KDM inhibitors may provide additional options for epigenomics-oriented therapies. Using a Time-Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (TR-FRET) functional demethylation assay, in combination with a high-content immunofluorescence imaging phenotypic screen, Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization- Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance mass spectrometry (MALDI-FTICR MS) and Amplified Luminescent Proximity Homogeneous Assay (ALPHA), we identified geldanamycin, an inhibitor of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90), as a novel inhibitor of JmjC-domain containing demethylases such as KDM4B. We further found that geldanamycin can destabilize the PAX3-FOXO1 fusion oncoprotein, an Hsp90 client, which is a driver of clinically unfavorable alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (aRMS). We then hypothesized that dual inhibition of PAX3-FOXO1 and epigenetic modifiers of aRMS would have synergistic antitumor activity. We repurposed the geldanamycin analog 17-DMAG to target aRMS and found that 17-DMAG significantly delays tumor growth , extends survival in xenograft mouse models, and inhibits expression of PAX3-FOXO1 targets and multiple oncogenic pathways including MYC, E2F and NOTCH. In addition, the combination of 17-DMAG with conventional chemotherapy or the bromodomain inhibitor JQ1 significantly enhances therapeutic efficacy. In summary, we have identified geldanamycin and 17-DMAG as dual KDM/Hsp90 inhibitors and 17-DMAG is efficacious against PAX3-FOXO1-driven rhabdomyosarcoma.

Identification of 17-DMAG as a novel KDM4B inhibitor for combination therapy [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Histone demethylases such as KDM4B play critical roles in oncogenic pathophysiology and, therefore may be effective targets for anticancer therapy. Using a TR-FRET demethylation screen assay, in combination with multiple orthogonal validation approaches, we identified geldanamycin and its analog 17-DMAG as novel KDM4B inhibitors. In addition, we found that these Hsp90 inhibitors effect increased degradation of the alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (aRMS) driver oncoprotein PAX3-FOXO1 and induce the H3K9me3 and H3K36me3 at genomic loci of PAX3-FOXO1 targets. We found that as monotherapy 17-DMAG significantly inhibits expression of PAX3-FOXO1 target genes and multiple oncogenic pathways, induces a muscle differentiation signature, delays tumor growth and extends survival in aRMS xenograft mouse models. The combination of 17-DMAG with conventional chemotherapy significantly enhances therapeutic efficacy, indicating that targeting KDM4B in combination with chemotherapy may serve as a novel therapy to PAX3-FOXO1-positive aRMS.

BioID HEK293T PAX3-FOXO1 proximity labelling

Project description:PAX3-FOXO1 is a fusion transcription factor that is the main driver of tumorigenesis leading to the development of alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (aRMS). Since aRMS cells are addicted to PAX3-FOXO1 activity, the fusion protein also represents a major target for therapeutic interference, which is however challenging as transcription factors usually cannot be inhibited directly by small molecules. Hence, characterization of the biology of PAX3-FOXO1 might lead to the discovery of new possibilities for an indirect inhibition of its activity. Here, our goal was to characterize the proteomic neighborhood of PAX3-FOXO1 and to find candidates potentially affecting its activity and tumor cell viability. Towards this aim, we expressed BirA fused versions of PAX3-FOXO1 (N- and C-terminal) in HEK293T cells under presence of biotin. In the control setup, we expressed the BirA enzyme alone. After Streptavidin purification of biotinylated proteins, we performed mass spectrometry and quantified relative abundances compared to control conditions. This enabled us to determine PAX3-FOXO1 proximal proteins, which we investigated further in orthogonal endogenous systems.

Transcriptional profiling by RNA-seq in shG9a Rh41 rhabdomyosarcoma cells

Project description:Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) is the most aggressive subtype mainly caused by the expression of PAX3/7-FOXO1 oncoproteins Here, we show that G9a interacts with PAX3-FOXO1 and regulates its activity. In line with this, transcriptomic analysis by RNA-seq revealed that G9a depletion in RH41 cells induced transcriptional changes inversely correlated by those imposed by PAX3-FOXO1 expression. Overall, our results indicate that G9a promotes PAX3-FOXO1 stability, thus sustaining ARMS myoblastic state.

PAX3-FOXO1 suppresses cellular senescence through RASSF4-mediated restraint of the mammalian Hippo/MST1 pathway

Project description:Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (aRMS) is an aggressive sarcoma of skeletal muscle characterized by expression of the PAX3-FOXO1 fusion gene. Despite its discovery over almost 20 years ago, PAX3-FOXO1 remains an enigmatic tumor driver. Previously, we reported that PAX3-FOXO1 supports aRMS initiation by enabling bypass of cellular senescence. Here, we show that bypass occurs in part by PAX3-FOXO1-mediated upregulation of RASSF4, a Ras-association domain family (RASSF) member, which then suppresses the evolutionarily conserved mammalian Hippo/Mst1 pathway. RASSF4 loss-of-function activates Hippo/Mst1 and inhibits downstream YAP, causing aRMS cell cycle arrest and senescence. This is the first evidence for an oncogenic role for RASSF4, and a novel mechanism for Hippo signaling suppression in human cancer. Human skeletal muscle myoblasts (HSMMs) were retrovirally transduced with either an empty vector (Vp, pK1) or PAX3-FOXO1 (PFp, pK1-PAX3-FOXO1) and selected on puromycin. Presenescent (presen) cells were harvested before the senescence checkpoint. Since cells expressing PAX3-FOXO1 can bypass the senescence checkpoint, postsenescent (postsen) cells expressing PAX3-FOXO1 were also harvested. the gene expression affected by the introduction of PAX3-FOXO1

Therapeutic targeting of ATR in alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma

Project description:Despite advances in multi-modal treatment approaches, clinical outcomes of patients suffering from PAX3-FOXO1 fusion oncogene-expressing alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) remain dismal. Here we show that PAX3-FOXO1-expressing ARMS cells are sensitive to pharmacological ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3 related protein (ATR) inhibition. Expression of PAX3-FOXO1 in muscle progenitor cells is not only sufficient to increase sensitivity to ATR inhibition, but PAX3-FOXO1-expressing rhabdomyosarcoma cells also exhibit increased sensitivity to structurally diverse inhibitors of ATR. Mechanistically, ATR inhibition leads to replication stress exacerbation, decreased BRCA1 phosphorylation and reduced homologous recombination-mediated DNA repair pathway activity. Consequently, ATR inhibitor treatment increases sensitivity of ARMS cells to PARP1 inhibition in vitro, and combined treatment with ATR and PARP1 inhibitors induces complete regression of primary patient-derived ARMS xenografts in vivo. Lastly, a genome-wide CRISPR activation screen (CRISPRa) in combination with transcriptional analyses of ATR inhibitor resistant ARMS cells identifies the RAS-MAPK pathway and its targets, the FOS gene family, as inducers of resistance to ATR inhibition. Our findings provide a rationale for upcoming biomarker-driven clinical trials of ATR inhibitors in patients suffering from ARMS.

Transcription profiling of human adult T cell leukemia cell lines to investigate the biological pathways of Hsp90 inhibitors

Project description:Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is essential for the stability and the function of many client proteins, such as ERB2, C-RAF, CDK4, HIF-1 aplha and AKT. Recent reports demonstrated that inhibition of Hsp90 modulates multiple functions required for survival of human cancer, such as myeloma (Mitsiades et al, Blood:107, 1092, 2006), The aim of this study is evaluate the effect of Hsp90 inhibition, and to identify molecular pathways responsible for anti-proliferative effect on ATL cells. For Hsp90 inhibition, Geldanamycin derivates, 17AAG (17-allylamino -17-demethoxygeldanamycin) and 17DMAG (17-(dimethylaminoethylamino) 17-demethoxygeldanamycin) were used in this study. Interleukin 2-independent ATL cell lines (MT-2 and MT-4) and an interleukin 2-dependent ATL cell line (TaY-E10) were incubated, with or without Hsp90 inhibitors. Experiment Overall Design: Three ATL cell lines(TaY-E10, MT-2, and MT-4) were cultured in the presence or absence of Hsp90 inhibitors(17-AAG and 17-DMAG).

KDM3B inhibitors disrupt PAX3-FOXO1 oncogenic activity in fusion positive rhabdomyosarcoma.

Project description:Fusion-positive alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (FP-RMS) is an aggressive pediatric sarcoma driven primarily by the PAX3-FOXO1 fusion oncogene, for which therapies targeting PAX3-FOXO1 are lacking. We screened 62,643 compounds using an engineered cell line that monitors PAX3-FOXO1 transcriptional activity identifying a hitherto uncharacterized compound, PFI-63. RNA-seq, ATAC-seq, and docking analyses implicated histone lysine demethylases (KDMs) as its targets. Enzymatic assays confirmed the inhibition of multiple KDMs with highest selectivity for KDM3B. Structural similarity search of PFI-63 identified PFI-90 with improved solubility and potency. Biophysical binding of PFI-90 to KDM3B was demonstrated using NMR and SPR. PFI-90 suppressed the growth of FP-RMS in vitro and in vivo through downregulating PAX3-FOXO1 activity, and combined knockdown of KDM3B and KDM1A phenocopied PFI-90 effects. Thus, we report novel KDM inhibitors with highest specificity for KDM3B. Its potent suppression of PAX3-FOXO1 activity can be exploited as a new therapeutic approach for FP-RMS and other transcriptionally driven cancers.

Regulatory landscape fusion in rhabdomyosarcoma by interactions between the PAX3 promoter and FOXO1 regulatory elements

Project description:Results: Using a combination of 4C-seq datasets, we were able to model the three-dimensional organisation of the translocated chromosome in a PAX3:FOXO1 fusion-positive alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma cell line. We show that PAX3 and FOXO1 regulatory landscapes fuse into a novel TAD, allowing the PAX3 promoter to interact ectopically with FOXO1 sequences with potential enhancer function. The borders of this novel TAD correspond to the original 5'- and 3'- borders of the PAX3 and FOXO1 TADs, respectively, suggesting that TAD organisation precedes the formation of regulatory long-range interactions. Conclusions: Our results suggest that the chromosomal translocation that leads to ARMS development generates a novel TAD that favours ectopic PAX3:FOXO1 oncogene activation in non-PAX3 territories, which may be an essential step in the tumorigenic process, as expression in a particular cell type, the often elusive cell-of-origin, may be required for disease development.

Piperacetazine directly binds to the PAX3::FOXO1 fusion protein and inhibits its transcriptional activity

Project description:The tumor-specific chromosomal translocation product, PAX3::FOXO1, is an aberrant fusion protein that plays a key role for oncogenesis in the alveolar subtype of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS). PAX3::FOXO1 represents a validated molecular target for alveolar RMS and successful inhibition of its oncogenic activity is likely to have significant clinical applications. Even though several PAX3::FOXO1 function-based screening studies have been successfully completed, a directly binding small molecule inhibitor of PAX3::FOXO1 has not been reported. Therefore, we screened small molecule libraries to identify compounds that were capable of directly binding to PAX3::FOXO1 protein using surface plasmon resonance technology. Compounds that directly bound to PAX3::FOXO1 were further evaluated in secondary transcriptional activation assays. We discovered that piperacetazine can directly bind to PAX3::FOXO1 protein and inhibit fusion protein-derived transcription in multiple alveolar RMS cell lines. Piperacetazine inhibited anchorage-independent growth of fusion positive alveolar RMS cells but not embryonal RMS cells. Based on our findings, piperacetazine is a molecular scaffold upon which derivatives could be developed as specific inhibitors of PAX3::FOXO1. These novel inhibitors could potentially be evaluated in future clinical trials for recurrent or metastatic alveolar RMS as novel targeted therapy options.
