Effect of BET bromodomain inhibitor and/or mTOR inhibitor on transcriptome of small cell lung cancer patient-derived xenograft LX95 tumors

ABSTRACT: We report mTOR inhibitor (mTORi) is synergistic with BET inhibitor (BETi) in controlling tumor growth and inducing apoptosis in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models. In this study, we studied impact of different treatment on whole-genome mRNA transcriptome in SCLC PDX tumors. Four different treatments (vehicle control, NHWD870 [BETi; 1.5mg/kg], everolimus [mTORi; 2mg/kg], and the combo [NHWD870 1mg/kg and everolimus 1.5mg/kg] were administered daily for one week in a small cell lung cancer PDX LX-95 model. Tumor cells were isolated from PDX tumors using a magnetic-activated cell sorting method to enrich human tumor cells and total RNA was extracted using the RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen). mRNA libraries were constructed and pair-ended sequenced using Illumina high-throughput sequencing technology. The length of sequence reads was 150 bp.The samples have 12 to 129 million pass filter reads with more than 90% of bases above the quality score of Q30. We found BET inhibitor increases expression of RPS6KA2, a gene that mediates crosstalk between MAPK and mTOR pathway.

Project description:Glomerular podocytes are highly differentiated cells that are key components of the kidney filtration units. The podocyte cytoskeleton builds the basis for the dynamic podocyte cytoarchitecture and plays a central role for proper podocyte function. Recent studies implicate that immunosuppressive agents including the mTOR-inhibitor everolimus have a protective role directly on the stability of the podocyte cytoskeleton. To elucidate mechanisms underlying mTOR-inhibitor mediated cytoskeletal rearrangements, we carried out microarray gene expression studies to identify target genes and corresponding pathways in response to everolimus. We analyzed the effect of everolimus in a puromycin aminonucleoside experimental in vitro model of podocyte injury. Upon treatment with puromycin aminonucleoside, microarray analysis revealed gene clusters involving cytoskeletal-associated pathways, adhesion, migration and extracellular matrix composition to be affected. Everolimus is capable of protecting podocytes from injury, both on the transcriptome and protein level. Rescued genes included TUBB2B and DCDC2, both involved in microtubule structure formation in neuronal cells but not identified in podocytes so far. Confirming gene expression data, Western-blot analysis in cultured podocytes showed an increase of TUBB2B and DCDC2 protein after everolimus treatment, and immunohistochemistry in healthy control kidneys confirmed a podocyte-specific expression. Microtubule-inhibitor experiments led to a maldistribution of TUBB2B and DCDC2 as well as an aberrant reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton. Tubb2bbrdp/brdp mice showed a delay in glomerular podocyte and capillary development. Taken together, our study suggests that off-target, non-immune mediated effects of the mTOR-inhibitor everolimus on the podocyte cytoskeleton might involve regulation of microtubules, revealing a potential novel role of TUBB2B and DCDC2 in glomerular podocyte development We analyzed the effect of everolimus on gene expression in a puromycin aminonucleoside experimental in vitro model of podocyte injury using microarrays
