Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy intends to only benefit a fraction of cancer patients, and combination immunotherapy with a compound is a promising treatment to overcome this limitation. Here, a tumor immunological phenotype (TIP) gene signature and high throughput sequencing-based high throughput screening (HTS2) were combined to identify combination immunotherapy compounds. We firstly defined a TIP gene signature, which expression pattern distinguishes “cold” tumors from “hot” tumors, and predicts ICB response in cancer patients. Then, after screening thousands of compounds, we identified that aurora kinase inhibitors, including ENMD-2076 and TAK-901, could reprogram the expression pattern of TIP genes from “cold” tumor to “hot” tumor in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells. The treatment of aurora kinase inhibitors on TNBC cells dramatically up-regulates expression of Th1 type chemokine genes CXCL10 and CXCL11, which promotes effective T cells infiltrating into tumor microenvironment and significantly improves anti-PD-1 efficacy in inhibiting the tumor growth of TNBC in preclinical models. Mechanistically, these aurora kinase inhibitors are mainly through inhibiting AURKA-STAT3 signaling pathway to stimulate the expression of CXCL10 and CXCL11. Our study established a high throughput strategy to discover candidate compounds for combination immunotherapy, and suggested the therapeutic potential of combining aurora kinase inhibitors with checkpoint blockade immunotherapy for the treatment of TNBC.

Project description:Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas form a heterogeneous group of non-Hodgkin lymphomas characterized by only poor prognosis in advanced stage. Despite significant progress made in the identification of novel genes and pathways involved in the pathogenesis of cutaneous lymphoma, the therapeutic value of these findings has still to be proven. Here, we demonstrate by gene expression arrays that aurora kinase A is one of highly overexpressed genes of the serine/threonine kinase in CTCL. The finding was confirmed by qualitative RT-PCR, Western blotting and immunohistochemistry in CTCL cell lines and primary patient samples. Moreover, treatment with a specific aurora kinase A inhibitor blocks cell proliferation by inducing cell cycle arrest in G2 phase as well as apoptosis in CTCL cell lines. These new data provide a promising rationale for using aurora kinase A inhibition as a therapeutic modality of CTCL. 14 lesional skin biopsies of different MF patients (patch=3, plaque=6, tumor=4) and 9 healthy controls.

Project description:The goal of this study is to identify the effect of inhibition of Aurora-A kinase activity on gene expression and RNA splicing. The perturbation of Aurora-A is well known to affect cell cycle distribution. Therefore, we coupled the inhibition of Aurora-A with cell synchronization procedure in order to avoid the indirect effect of cell cycle perturbation on splicing changes. The mRNA -seq libraries were prepared and subjected to paired-end sequencing on Illumina HiSeq 2500 lanes. Differential gene expression and splicing analysis were carried using the edgeR tool and VAST-tools respectively. The RNA seq analysis identified that pharmacological inhibition of Aurora-A affects alternative splicing of 505 genes while having a marginal effect on gene expression. Overall our work identified Aurora-A as a novel splicing kinase and for the first time, describes a broad role of Aurora-A in regulating alternative splicing.

Project description:Sonic hedgehog medulloblastoma cells with stable overexpression of Myc (UW426-Myc) become sensitized to apoptosis induction when exposed to Aurora kinase B inhibitor AZD1152. We sought to determine the gene expression changes that take place when Myc is overexpressed in UW426 and to determine the genes differentially expressed in UW426-Myc cells compared to wild-type UW426 when exposed tothe drug AZD1152 that specifically inhibits Aurora kinase B activity.

Project description:To study the senescence gene signatures in the cells, which were genetic SMARCB1 depleted or treated with aurora kinase inhibitors or etoposide, we performed next generation RNA sequencing on these cell, and 'FRIDMAN_SENESCENCE_UP' geneset was used to determine the enrichment of senescence-related genes. The RNA sequencing results include (1) A375 cells and SMARCB1 depleted counterparts. (2) A549 cells and aurora kinase inhibitor (Alisertib, barasertib or tozasertib) or etoposide treated counterparts.

Project description:Targeting the function of MYC proteins for therapy is a major challenge in tumor biology. MYC proteins are transcription factors that can globally release RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) from core promoters. In neuroblastoma, the MYC paralogue, MYCN, and the Aurora-A kinase form a complex during S phase that stabilizes MYCN and enhances Aurora-A kinase activity. Here we show that Aurora-A phosphorylates histone H3 at serine 10 in S phase and suppresses transcription-dependent R-loop formation. Inhibition of Aurora-A causes global stalling of RNAPII at pause sites and exon/intron boundaries and induces transcription/replication conflicts, activating the Ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3 related (ATR) kinase. Activation of ATR is required to prevent the accumulation of double-strand breaks. In genetically-engineered mice with MYCN-driven neuroblastoma, combined inhibition of Aurora-A and ATR induces rampant tumor-specific apoptosis and tumor regression, leading to permanent eradication of tumors in a subset of mice. The therapeutic efficacy is not only due to tumor cell-intrinsic mechanisms, but also engages the host immune system for tumor eradication. Since stabilization of MYCN promotes promoter-proximal transcription termination, we propose that MYCN/Aurora-A complex formation enables tumor cells to prevent transcription-replication conflicts and that targeting this mechanism is an effective therapy for MYCN-driven neuroblastoma.
