CDK7-dependent Transcriptional Addiction in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (Microarray)

Project description:Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly aggressive form of breast cancer that exhibits extremely high levels of genetic complexity and yet a relatively uniform transcriptional program. We postulate that TNBC might be highly dependent on uninterrupted transcription of a key set of genes within this gene expression program and might therefore be exceptionally sensitive to inhibitors of transcription. Utilizing a novel kinase inhibitor and CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing, we show here that triple-negative but not ER/PR+ breast cancer cells are exceptionally dependent on CDK7, a transcriptional cyclin-dependent kinase. TNBC cells are unique in their dependence on this transcriptional CDK and suffer apoptotic cell death upon CDK7 inhibition. An “Achilles cluster” of TNBC-specific genes are extremely sensitive to CDK7 inhibition and frequently associated with super-enhancers. We conclude that CDK7 mediates transcriptional addiction to a vital cluster of genes in TNBC and CDK7 inhibition may be useful therapy for this challenging cancer.

Targeting triple negative breast cancer with combination therapy of epidermal growth factor receptor-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T cell and CDK7 inhibitor

Project description:Epidermal growth factor receptor-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T cell (EGFR CAR-T) is potent and specific in suppressing triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cell growth in vitro and in vivo. However, a subset of mice soon acquired resistance, which limits the potential use of EGFR CAR-T. The aim of this study is to find a way to overcome the observed resistance. Transcriptomic analysis results revealed that EGFR CAR-T treatment led to the induction of a cohort of immunosuppressive genes, presumably through Interferon gamma (IFNγ signaling, in EGFR CAR-T-resistant TNBC tumors. EGFR CAR-T-induced immunosuppressive genes were found to be associated with EGFR CAR-T-activated enhancers and especially sensitive to THZ1, a CDK7 inhibitor, out of a panel of small molecules targeting epigenetic modulators screened. Accordingly, combination therapy of THZ1 and EGFR CAR-T suppressed immune resistance and tumor growth and metastasis in TNBC tumor models including human MDA-MB-231 cells-derived xenografts, TNBC patient-derived xenografts, and mouse EMT6 cells-derived allografts in mice. Taken together, we demonstrated that CAR-T therapy-induced immune resistance can be overcome by transcriptional modulation using epigenetic inhibitors, providing a therapeutic avenue for treating TNBC in the clinic.

Chromatin architecture is indirectly regulated by CDK7 transcriptional activity

Project description:Cyclin Dependent Kinase 7 (CDK7) is the core catalytic subunit of Cyclin Activating Kinase (CAK), a complex that has dual roles in cell cycle progression and transcription. While several CDK7 inhibitors are efficacious in preclinical models of cancer and have entered clinical trials, the mechanism(s) by which CDK7 promotes proliferation and cell viability is not well understood. Using triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) as a model, we found that inhibiting CDK7, either genomically or pharmacologically, induces mitotic dysfunction. Live and static cell imaging revealed that CDK7 inhibition prolongs mitosis and induces chromatin bridge formation, DNA double strand breaks, and abnormal nuclear features, all of which are indicative of mitotic catastrophe and chromosome instability. Transcriptome analyses revealed that CDK7 is essential for maintaining condensin complex gene expression, suggesting that CDK7 may sustain chromatin configuration, a role that extends beyond its impact on super-enhancers. Indeed, inhibiting CDK7 alters chromatin architecture consistent with condensin disruption. Confirming the importance of condensin regulation by CDK7, genetic suppression of a core subunit of this complex, structural maintenance of chromosome 2 (SMC2), phenocopies CDK7 inhibition. We report an undescribed role of CDK7 in maintaining chromatin structure and chromosome stability, as well as promoting proper mitoses, by sustaining condensin expression.

Src Family Kinases as potential therapeutic targets for chemotherapy-resistant triple negative breast cancer

Project description:Here we quantified tyrosine phosphorylation (pTyr) mediated signaling networks in chemotherapy sensitive (CS) and resistant (CR) TNBC patient derived xenografts (PDX) to gain novel therapeutic insights. We identified Src Family Kinases (SFKs) as potential therapeutic targets in CR TNBC PDXs. Additionally, we performed pTyr analysis on tumor specimens derived from TNBC patients and observed lower prevalence of SFK driven tumors.
