RNF43 G659fs is an oncogenic colorectal cancer mutation and sensitizes tumor cells to PI3K/mTOR inhibition

ABSTRACT: The RNF43_G659fs mutation occurs frequently in colorectal cancer, however, its function remains poorly understood. In addition, there are no specific therapies directed against this alteration. In this study, we found that RNF43_G659fs is not a passenger mutation, but rather promotes cell growth independent of Wnt signaling. We performed a drug repurposing library screen and discovered that cells with RNF43_G659 mutations were selectively killed by inhibition of PI3K signaling. PI3K/mTOR inhibitors yielded promising antitumor activity in RNF43659mut isogenic cell lines and xenograft models, as well as in patient-derived organoids harboring RNF43_G659fs mutations. We found that RNF43659mut binds p85 leading to increased PI3K signaling through p85 ubiquitination. Additionally, RNA-sequencing of RNF43659mut isogenic cells revealed decreased interferon signaling that may alter tumor immunity. Our findings suggest a novel therapeutic application for PI3K/mTOR inhibitors in treating RNF43_G659fs mutant cancers.

RNF43 G659fs is an oncogenic colorectal cancer mutation and sensitizes tumor cells to PI3K/mTOR inhibition

Project description:Fang L, Ford-Roshon D, Russo M, O'Brien C, Xiong X, Gurjao C, Grandclaudon M, Raghavan S, Corsello SM, Carr SA, Udeshi ND, Berstler J, Sicinska E, Ng K, Giannakis M. 2022. The RNF43_p.G659fs mutation occurs frequently in colorectal cancer, but its function remains poorly understood and there are no specific therapies directed against this alteration. In this study, we find that RNF43_p.G659fs promotes cell growth independent of Wnt signaling. We perform a drug repurposing library screen and discover that cells with RNF43_G659 mutations are selectively killed by inhibition of PI3K signaling. PI3K/mTOR inhibitors yield promising antitumor activity in RNF43659mut isogenic cell lines and xenograft models, as well as in patient-derived organoids harboring RNF43_p.G659fs mutations. We find that RNF43659mut binds p85 leading to increased PI3K signaling through p85 ubiquitination and degradation. Additionally, RNA-sequencing of RNF43659mut isogenic cells reveals decreased interferon response gene expression, that is reversed by PI3K/mTOR inhibition, suggesting that RNF43659mut may alter tumor immunity. Our findings suggest a therapeutic application for PI3K/mTOR inhibitors in treating RNF43_p.G659fs mutant cancers.

Comparative study of a mTOR inhibitor, a pan-PI3K inhibitor and a dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor in MCL

Project description:Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway activation contributes to mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) pathogenesis and drug resistance. However, the use of mTOR inhibitors as single agents have shown limited clinical efficacy in relation with drug activation of feedback loops. Selective PI3K inhibition or dual PI3K/mTOR catalytic inhibition are different therapeutic approaches developed to achieve effective pathway blockage. Here, we evaluated the antitumor activity of a mTOR inhibitor, a pan-PI3K inhibitor and a dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor in primary MCL cells. We found that dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor modulated angiogenesis, tumor invasiveness and cytokine signaling compared to a mTOR inhibitor and a pan-PI3K inhibitor in MCL. We used microarrays to compare the effect of these three compounds in MCL and identified distinct classes of down-regulated genes modulated by each compound. Global RNA expression in primary cells from two MCL patients treated with a mTOR inhibitor, a pan-PI3K inhibitor and a dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor for 8 hours

Copy number profiling of 92 human lung tumors on Affymetrix 100K SNP arrays

Project description:Copy number profiling of 92 human lung tumors on Affymetrix 100K SNP arrays was conducted in order to assess the interaction of common genomic alterations with response to targeted anti-cancer therapeutics. Class 1 phosphatidylinositol 3' kinase (PI3K) plays a major role in cell proliferation and survival in a wide variety of human cancers. Here we investigate biomarker strategies for PI3K pathway inhibitors in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Molecular profiling of NSCLC tumor samples showed that copy number gains in PIK3CA and total loss of PTEN protein were common in squamous cell carcinoma samples, whereas LKB1 loss and mutations in KRAS and EGFR were common in adenocarcinomas. A panel of NSCLC cell lines characterized for alterations in the PI3K pathway was screened with PI3K and dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitors to assess the preclinical predictive value of candidate biomarkers. Cell lines harboring pathway alterations (RTK activation, PI3K mutation or amplification, PTEN loss) were exquisitely sensitive to the PI3K inhibitor GDC-0941. A dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor had broader activity across the cell line panel and in tumor xenografts. The combination of GDC-0941 with paclitaxel, erlotinib, or a MEK inhibitor had greater effects on cell viability than PI3K inhibition alone. CONCLUSIONS: Candidate biomarkers for PI3K inhibitors have predictive value in preclinical models and show histology-specific alterations in primary tumors, suggesting that distinct biomarker strategies may be required in squamous compared with non-squamous NSCLC patient populations. Lung tumors were profiled on Affymetrix GeneChip Mapping 100K Set Arrays Tumor samples were profiled for copy number without any treatment of the tumor.

Somatic Gain-of-Function mTOR mutation in Clonally Expanded T-lymphocytes Associated with Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease

Project description:Graft-versus-host-disease (GvHD) is the main complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Here we report studies of a patient with chronic GVHD (cGVHD) carrying persistent CD4+ T cell clonal expansion which harbored somatic mTOR, NFKB2, and TLR2 mutations. Functional analysis of the discovered mTOR mutation indicated a gain-of-function alteration and activation of both mTORC1 and mTORC2 signaling pathways leading to increased cell proliferation and decreased apoptosis. Single-cell RNA sequencing and real-time impedance measurements supported increased cytotoxicity of mutated CD4+ T cells. High throughput drug-sensitivity testing suggested mutations induce resistance to mTOR inhibitors but increase sensitivity for HSP90 inhibitors. Our findings suggest that somatic mutations may contribute to aberrant T cell proliferations and participate in the persistent immune activation in cGVHD paving the way for novel targeted therapies.

A p85 Isoform Switch Enhances PI3K Activation on Endosomes by a MAP4- and PI3P-dependent Mechanism

Project description:PI3K is a heterodimer of p110 catalytic and p85 adaptor subunits that is activated by agonist-stimulated receptor tyrosine kinases. Although p85 recruits p110 to activated receptors on membranes, p85 loss, which occurs commonly in cancer, paradoxically promotes agonist-stimulated PI3K/Akt signaling. p110 localizes to microtubules via MAP4, facilitating its interaction with activated receptor kinases on endosomes to initiate PI3K/Akt signaling. Here, we demonstrate that in response to agonist stimulation and p85 knock down, the residual p110 coupled predominantly to p85 exhibits enhanced recruitment with receptor tyrosine kinases to endosomes. Moreover, the p110 C2 domain binds PI3P and this interaction is also required to recruit p110 to endosomes and for PI3K/Akt signaling. Stable knockdown of p85, which mimics the reduced p85levels observed in cancer, enhances cell growth and tumorsphere formation, and these effects are abrogated by MAP4 or p85knockdown, underscoring their role in the tumor-promoting activity of p85loss.

Omics analyses of a somatic Trp53R245W/+ breast cancer model identify cooperating driver events activating PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling

Project description:Alterations of the tumor suppressor TP53, one of the most common events in cancer, alone are insufficient for tumor development but serve as drivers of transformation. We sought to identify cooperating events through genomic analyses of a novel somatic Trp53R245W mouse model (equivalent to the TP53R248W hot spot mutation in human cancers) that recapitulates metastatic breast cancer development. We identified cooperating lesions similar to those found in human breast cancers. Moreover, we identified activation of the Pi3k/Akt/mTOR pathway in most tumors via mutations in Pten, Erbb2, Kras and/or a recurrent Pip5k1c mutation that stabilizes the Pip5k1c protein to activate Pi3k/Akt/mTOR signaling. Another PIP5K1C family member, PIP5K1A, is co-amplified with PI4KB in 18% of human breast cancer patients and both encode kinases that are responsible for production of the PI3K substrate, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate. Thus, the TP53R248W mutation and PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling are major cooperative events driving breast cancer development. Additionally, we demonstrated that the upregulation of oxidative phosphorylation by Pi3k/Akt/mTOR signaling is a vulnerability in murine as well as human breast cancer cell lines. These findings advance our understanding of mutant p53-driven breast tumors and expand testable targets for breast cancer treatment.

AXL mediates resistance to PI3Kα inhibition by activating the EGFR/PKC/mTOR axis in head and neck and esophageal squamous cell carcinomas.

Project description:Phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K)-α inhibitors are clinically active in squamous carcinoma (SCC) of the head and neck (H&N) bearing mutations or amplification of PIK3CA. We aimed to identify potential mechanism of resistance and have observed that SCCs cells overcome the antitumor effects of the PI3Kα inhibitor BYL719 by maintaining PI3K-independent activation of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). The persistent mTOR activation is mediated by the tyrosine kinase receptor AXL. We found that AXL is overexpressed in resistant tumors, dimerizes with the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), phosphorylates EGFR tyrosine 1173, resulting in activation of phospholipase Cγ (PLCγ)- protein kinase C (PKC) that, in turn, activates mTOR. Finally, simultaneous treatment with PI3Kα and either EGFR, AXL or PKC inhibitors reverts this resistance. RNAseq from acquired resistant cells CAL33B, K180B were compared to their parental counterpart CAL33 and K180, respectively. K180 is a shortcut of KYSE180, and B stands for BYL719. Duplicate of parental sensitive cells and K180B, and triplicate for CAL33B.
