Project description:Human neuroblastoma cells (SH-SY5Y) were engineered to have stable expression of either TrkA (NTRK1) or TrkB (NTRK2) receptors. The cells were pretreated with 0.5 μM Trametinib, 2.5 μM Gefitinib, and combination of 0.25 μM Trametinib and 1.25 μM Gefitinib. Stimulation of TrkA and TrkB-expressing SH-SY5Y cells was carried out 30 minutes following inhibitor addition, using 100 ng/mL of recombinant NGF (#450-01) and BDNF (#450-02), respectively (both from Peprotech). The stimulated and unstimulated controls are included.

Project description:Simple Summary: Neuroblastoma (NB) accounts for 15% of all cancer related deaths of children. While amplification of the Myc-N proto-oncogene (MYCN) is a major driver of NB, expression of the neurotrophin receptor, NTRK1/TrkA, has been shown to associate with an excellent outcome. MYCN down-regulates NTRK1 expression, but it is unknown if the molecular effects of NTRK1 signaling also affect MYCN-induced networks. The aim of this study was to decipher NTRK1 signaling using an unbiased proteome and phosphoproteome approach. To this end, we realized inducible ectopic NTRK1-expression in a NB cell line with MYCN amplification and analyzed the proteomic changes upon NTRK1-activation in a time-dependent manner. In line with phenotypes observed, NTRK1-activation induced markers of neuronal differentiation and cell cycle arrest. Most prominently, NTRK1 upregulated expression and phosphorylation of the nuclear lamina component Lamin A/C. Moreover, NTRK1 signaling also induced aggregation of LMNA within nucleic foci, which accompanies differentiation in other cell types. Abstract: Background: Neuroblastomas (NB) are the most common extracranial solid tumors of childhood. Amplification of the Myc-N proto-oncogene (MYCN) is a major driver of NB aggressiveness, while high expression of the neurotrophin receptor NTRK1/TrkA is associated with mild disease courses. The molecular effects of NTRK1 signaling in MYCN-amplified NB, however, are still poorly understood and require elucidation. Methods: Inducible NTRK1-expression was realized in four NB cell lines with (IMR5, NGP) or without MYCN amplification (SKNAS, SH-SY5Y). Proteome and phosphoproteome dynamics upon NTRK1-activation by its ligand, NGF, were analyzed in a time-dependent manner in IMR5 cells. Target validation by immunofluorescence staining and automated image processing was performed using the three other NB cell lines. Results: In total, 230 proteins and 134 single phosphorylated class I phosphosites were found to be significantly regulated upon NTRK1 activation. Among known NTRK1-targets, Stathmin and the neurosecretory protein VGF were recovered. Additionally, we observed upregulation and phosphorylation of Lamin A/C (LMNA) that accumulated inside nuclear foci. Conclusions: We provide a comprehensive picture of NTRK1-induced proteome and phosphoproteome dynamics. Phosphorylation of LMNA within nucleic aggregates was identified as a prominent feature of NTRK1 signaling independent of the MYCN status of NB cells.

Project description:Neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinases, also known as Tropomyosin receptor kinases (TrkA, TrkB and TrkC), despite their homology, contribute to the clinical heterogeneity of childhood cancer neuroblastoma. TrkA expression is associated with low-stage disease and is often seen with spontaneous tumour regression. Conversely, TrkB is present in unfavourable neuroblastomas that often harbour amplification of the MYCN oncogene. The role of TrkC is less clearly defined, although some studies suggest its association with a favourable outcome. Understanding the differences in the activity of Trk receptors that drive divergent clinical phenotypes as well as the influence of MYCN amplification on downstream Trk receptor signalling remain poorly understood. Here, we present a comprehensive label-free mass spectrometry-based total proteomics and phosphoproteomics dataset where we identified and quantified 4,907 proteins, 16,744 phosphosites and 5,084 phosphoproteins, derived from NGF/BDNF/NT-3 treated TrkA/B/C-overexpressing neuroblastoma cells with differential MYCN status. Analysing our dataset offers valuable insights into TrkA/B/C receptor signalling in neuroblastoma and its modulation by MYCN status; and holds potential for advancing therapeutic strategies in this challenging childhood cancer.

Project description:TrkB with its ligand, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), are overexpressed in the majority of high-risk neuroblastomas (NBs). Entrectinib is a novel pan-TRK, ALK, and ROS1 inhibitor that has shown excellent preclinical efficacy in NB xenograft models, and recently it has entered phase 1 trials in pediatric relapsed/refractory solid tumors. We examined entrectinib-resistant NB cell lines to identify mechanisms of resistance. Entrectinib-resistant cell lines were established from five NB xenografts initially sensitive to entrectinib therapy. Clonal cell lines were established in increasing concentrations of entrectinib and had >10X increase in IC50. Cell lines underwent genomic and proteomic analysis using whole-exome sequencing, RNA-Seq, and proteomic expression profiling with confirmatory RT-PCR and Western blot analysis. There was no evidence of NTRK2 (TrkB) gene mutation in any resistant cell lines. Inhibition of TrkB was maintained in all cell lines at increasing concentrations of entrectinib (target independent). PTEN pathway downregulation and ERK/MAPK pathway upregulation were demonstrated in all resistant cell lines. One of these clones also had increased IGF1R signaling, and two additional clones had increased P75 expression, which likely increased TrkB sensitivity to ligand. In conclusion, NB lines overexpressing TrkB developed resistance to entrectinib by multiple mechanisms, including activation of ERK/MAPK and downregulation of PTEN signaling. Individual cell lines also had IGF1R activation and increased P75 expression, allowing preservation of downstream TrkB signaling in the presence of entrectinib. An understanding of changes in patterns of expression can be used to inform multimodal therapy planning in using entrectinib in phase II/III trial planning.

Project description:Nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and neurotrophin3 (NT-3) bind to tyrosine kinase (Trk) receptors, TrkA, TrkB, and TrkC, respectively. This study investigated the efficacy of novel molecule agonists of Trk receptors in an in vivo model of dry eye disease. Compared to vehicle, mice subjected to desiccating stress and treated with agonists pan and C1 showed improved corneal barrier function, while C1 also increased GC densities. NanoString analyses revealed upregulation of specific mRNA transcripts (Ptger4, Tnfaip3, Il1a and Ptger4, Tlr3, Osal1) in pan and C1 treated corneas compared to vehicle-treated corneas. Western blots showed pan and C1 decreased vehicle-induced NFkB nuclear translocation after DS for one day and increased PTGER4 and TNFAIP3 protein levels after 5 days of DS in corneal epithelium lysates. These results were confirmed by immunostaining using antibodies for TNFAIP3 and PTGER4 in wholemount corneas. We conclude that small-molecule agonists of Trk receptors improve dry eye disease by decreasing NFkB activation and increasing protein expression of anti-inflammatory molecules TNFAIP3 and PTGER4. Surprisingly, the most efficacious small molecule agonists were not TrkA selective, but TrkC and panTrk, suggesting that wider exploration of TrkB and C and pan Trk agonists are warranted in efforts to treat dry eye disease.

Project description:The polycomb repressor complex 2 molecule EZH2 is now known to play a role in essential cellular processes, namely, cell fate decisions, cell cycle regulation, senescence, cell differentiation, and cancer development/progression. EZH2 inhibitors have recently been developed; however, their effectiveness and underlying molecular mechanisms in many malignancies have not yet been elucidated in detail. Although the functional role of EZH2 in tumorigenesis in neuroblastoma (NB) has been investigated, mutations of EZH2 have not been reported. A Kaplan-Meier analysis on the event free- and overall survival of NB patients indicated that the highexpression of EZH2 correlated with an unfavorable prognosis. In order to elucidate the functional roles of EZH2 in NB tumorigenesis and its aggressiveness, we knocked down EZH2 in NB cell lines using lentivirus systems. The knockdown of EZH2 significantly induced NB cell differentiation, e.g. neurite extension, and the neuronal differentiation markers, NF68 and GAP43. EZH2 inhibitors also induced NB cell differentiation. We performed a comprehensive transcriptome analysis using Human Gene Expression Microarrays and found that NTRK1 (TrkA) is one of the EZH2-related suppression targets. The depletion of NTRK1 canceled EZH2 knockdown-induced NB cell differentiation. Our integrative methylome, transcriptome, and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays using NB cell lines and clinical samples clarified that the NTRK1 P1 and P2 promoter regions were regulated differently by DNA methylation and EZH2-related histone modifications. The NTRK1 transcript variants 1/2, which were regulated by EZH2-related H3K27me3 modifications at the P1 promoter region, were strongly expressed in favorable, but not unfavorable NB. The depletion and inhibition of EZH2 successfully induced NTRK1 transcripts and functional proteins. Collectively, these results indicate that EZH2 plays important roles in preventing the differentiation of NB cells and also that EZH2-related NTRK1 transcriptional regulation may be the key pathway for NB cell differentiation.

Project description:The tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TrkB) is encoded by the NTRK2 gene. It belongs to the family of transmembrane tyrosine kinases, which have key roles in the development and maintenance of the nervous system. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and the neurotrophins NT3 and NT4/5 have high affinity for TrkB. Dysregulation of TrkB is associated to a large spectrum of diseases including neurodegeneration, psychiatric diseases and some cancers. The function of TrkB and its role in neural development have mainly been decrypted using transgenic mouse models, pharmacological modulators and human neuronal cell lines overexpressing NTRK2. In this study, we identified high expression and robust activity of TrkB in ReNcell VM, an immortalized human neural progenitor stem cell line and generated NTRK2-deficient (NTRK2-/-) ReNcell VM using the CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology. Global transcriptomic analysis revealed major changes in expression of specific genes responsible for neurogenesis, neuronal development and glial differentiation. In particular, key neurogenic transcription factors were massively down-regulated in NTRK2-/- cells, while early glial progenitor markers were enriched in NTRK2-/- cells. This indicates a previously undescribed inhibitory role of TrkB on glial differentiation in addition to its well described pro-neurogenesis role. Altogether, we have generated for the first time a human neural cell line with a loss-of-function mutation of NTRK2, which represents a reproducible and readily available cell culture system to study the role of TrkB during human neural differentiation, analyse the role of TrkB isoforms as well as validate TrkB antibodies and pharmacological agents targeting the TrkB pathway.

Project description:The identification and clinical validation of cancer driver genes are essential to accelerate the translational transition of cancer genomics, as well as to find clinically confident targets for the therapeutic intervention of cancers. Here we identified recurrent LMNA-NTRK1 and TPM3-NTRK1 fusions in Korean patients with colon cancer (3 out of 147, 2%) through next-generation RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). NTRK1 fusions were mutually exclusive oncogenic drivers of colon cancer that were accompanied with in vitro potential of colony formation and in vivo tumorigenicity comparable to KM12, a human colon cancer cell line harboring TPM3-NTRK1 fusion. NTRK1-encoded TrkA protein was prevalent in 11 out of 216 Korean (5.1%) and 28 out of 472 Chinese patients (5.9%) from independent cohorts, respectively. The expression level of TrkA was significantly correlated with NTRK1 fusion (p = 0.0192), which was verified by a fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Korean patients with TrkA-positive colon cancer had a marginal but significant shorter overall survival time than TrkA-negative colon cancer [hazard ratio (HR) = 0.5346, 95% confidential interval (CI) = 0.2548-0.9722, p = 0.0411]. In addition, KM12 cell line was sensitive to selective TrkA inhibitors. These results demonstrate that NTRK1 fusion is granted as a clinically relevant target for therapeutic intervention of colon cancer.

Project description:Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a neurotrophin that plays an important role in regulating the survival, growth, and differentiation of sympathetic neurons. Many in vitro studies indicate that Egr transcription factors are coupled to NGF signaling and are essential signaling mediators of NGF-dependent differentiation of sympathetic neurons, such as neuroblastoma cells and pheochromocytoma cells. Mice that are deficient for both Egr1 and Egr3 have profound sympathetic nerve system defects, including abnormal neuron degeneration and impaired differentiation (unpublished observations). To further understand the role of Egr genes in sympathetic neuron development, it is necessary to examine the signal transduction pathways involved in NGF-mediated Egr-dependent gene regulation. The results will be helpful in understanding the pathobiology of those diseases related to aberrant sympathetic neuron differentiation, such as neuroblastoma and dysautonomias, and may provide new insights into therapies for these refractory diseases. To identify NGF-mediated Egr-dependent target genes in human SH-SY5Y/TrkA neuroblastoma cells: Many potential Egr target genes have been described over the years. However, very few have been characterized to be involved in NGF-mediated sympathetic neuron differentiation. In order to further understand the role of Egr genes in sympathetic neuron development, it is necessary to examine the signal transduction pathways involved in NGF-mediated Egr-dependent gene regulation. Egr1 and Egr3 are rapidly induced after NGF treatment and Egr1 is involved in activation of the differentiation marker gene NPY in SH-SY5Y/TrkA cells. Therefore, SH-SY5Y/TtrkA cells appear to be an excellent model system to study the role of Egr transcription factors in sympathetic neuron differentiation in vitro. A dominant negative Egr molecule that specifically blocks transcriptional activity mediated by Egr transcription factors will be used in this study to identify Egr-dependent target genes. Egr1 and Egr3 are rapidly induced after NGF treatment in human SH-SY5Y/TrkA neuroblastoma cells, which in turn differentiate into sympathetic-like neurons. We hypothesize that Egr transcription factors are involved in activating downstream signaling pathways during NGF mediated differentiation of SH-SY5Y/TrkA cells. Moreover, we hypothesize that by using a dominant negative Egr (dnEgr) molecule that blocks all Egr mediated gene transcription and Affymetrix microarray analysis, it will be possible to identify NGF-mediated Egr transcription dependent gene regulatory networks that may be involved in growth and differentiation of neuroblastoma. An unbiased approach to understanding these gene regulatory networks may lead to new insights relating to NGF signaling involved in neuronal growth and differentiation. Human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y/TrkA cells will be infected with either dnEgr-expressing adenovirus (SH-SY5Y/TrkA-dnEgr) or with EGFP-expressing control adenovirus (SH-SY5Y/TrkA-EGFP). Equivalent infection efficiency and lack of viral toxicity will be verified by EGFP fluorescence microscopy 24 hours after infection and the cells will be treated with NGF (100 ng/ml). Total RNA will be extracted from SH-SY5Y/TrkA (uninfected), SH-SY5Y/TrkA-dnEgr, and SH-SY5Y/TrkA-EGFP cells treated with NGF for 0, 1 hour and 3 hours. Total RNA will be prepared from all of the samples and a portion subjected to real-time PCR analysis to ensure that NGF mediated Egr gene induction was not altered by the context of viral infection. Pilot experiments demonstrate that Egr genes are still induced in the context of viral infection greater than 100-fold. Egr1 mRNA peak expression is known to occur at 1 hour and decrease by 3 hours after NGF treatment in all of the samples. The peak expression of Egr target genes is expected to occur later than Egr1 peak expression since Egr1 proteins need to be expressed first to initiate the transcription of target promoters. Therefore, the RNA samples from SH-SY5Y/TrkA-dnEgr and SH-SY5Y/TrkA-EGFP treated with NGF for 3 hours will be used to probe Affymetrix high-density human genome U133 Plus 2.0 Arrays to identify differentially expressed genes. RNA amplification for probe synthesis should not be necessary since we will provide 10 ug of intact total RNA for each sample. We will provide three sets of samples to perform the comparative microarray analysis twice from different starting materials and a nine-way comparative analysis of the data will be performed. We expect that cells containing high levels of dnEgr will inhibit NGF mediated Egr-dependent target gene expression and that these gene networks should be identifiable when compared to EGFP infected cells that have normal Egr gene transcriptional activity. Experiment Overall Design: as above
