Project description:We uncovered an autophagic pathway regulating survival in ABC DLBCL upon BTK inhibition using genome wide CRISPR screening. To investigate the mechanism of action of this unique form of autophagy, we performed RNA-seq on TMD8 cells knocked out for various ATG genes that either showed resistance to BTK inhibitors (ATG9A, ATG101, ATG14, RB1CC1, WIPI2), those that did not (ATG5, ATG7, ULK1 and 2 DKO, or non-targetingcontrol), or TMD8 cells knocked out for the known NF-kB negative regulator TNFAIP3. Cells were treated for 24 hours with the BTK inhibitor, acalabrutinib, and gene expression signatures were calculated from normalized RNA-seq reads. We found NF-kB gene expression signatures to be downregulated in control cells upon BTK inhibition, but not in ATG KO cells conferring BTK inhibitor resistance.

Project description:Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and follicular lymphoma (FL) are the most prevalent B-lymphocyte neoplasms in which abnormal activation of the Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK)–mediated B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling pathway contributes to pathogenesis. Ibrutinib is an oral covalent BTK inhibitor that has shown some efficacy in both indications. To improve ibrutinib efficacy through combination therapy, we first investigated differential gene expression in parental and ibrutinib-resistant cell lines to better understand the mechanisms of resistance. Ibrutinib-resistant TMD8 cells had higher BCL2 gene expression and increased sensitivity to ABT-199, a BCL-2 inhibitor. Consistently, clinical samples from ABC-DLBCL patients who experienced poorer response to ibrutinib had higher BCL2 gene expression. We further demonstrated synergistic growth suppression by ibrutinib and ABT-199 in multiple ABC-DLBCL, GCB-DLBCL, and FL lymphoma cell lines. The combination of both drugs also reduced colony formation, increased apoptosis, and inhibited tumor growth in a TMD8 xenograft model. A synergistic combination effect was also found in ibrutinib-resistant cells generated by either genetic mutation or drug treatment. Together, these findings suggest a potential clinical benefit from ibrutinib and ABT-199 combination therapy.

Project description:Methods: DLBCL cell lines RIVA, U-2932 and OCI-LY3 were treated in vitro with ibrutinib (Ibru) or dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Additionally, RIVA and U-2932 were orthotopically transplanted into MISTRG mice and mice were treated for two weeks with Ibru or vehicle. Tumor cells were isolated from the bone marrow at the study endpoint. The total RNA was isolated and the mRNA profiles were generated by next-generation sequencing using the Illumina TruSeq mRNA stranded protocol. Results: We have combined single and combinatorial drug response profiling to show that the combined inhibition of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and of the tyrosine kinase BTK with the small molecules venetoclax and ibrutinib efficiently kills DLBCL cells. High Bcl-2 expression due to either BCL2 amplifications or translocations, in conjunction with chronic active BCR signalling accurately predict responses to dual Bcl-2/BTK inhibition.The combined data show that drug sensitivities exposed by drug response profiling can be attributed to specific mutational signatures and immunohistochemical biomarkers, and point to combined Bcl-2/BTK inhibition as a novel promising therapeutic strategy in DLBCL.

Project description:Chronic active B cell receptor (BCR) signaling, a hallmark of the ABC subtype of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), engages the CARD11-MALT1-BCL10 (CBM) adapter complex to activates IkappaB kinase (IKK) and the classical NF-kappaB pathway. Here we show that the CBM complex includes the E3 ubiquitin ligases cIAP1 and cIAP2, which are essential mediators of BCR-dependent NF-kappaB activity in ABC DLBCL. cIAP1/2 attach K63-linked polyubiquitin chains on themselves and on BCL10, resulting in the recruitment of IKK and the linear ubiquitin chain ligase LUBAC, which is essential for IKK activation. SMAC mimetic drugs target cIAP1/2 for destruction, and consequently suppress NF-kappaB and selectively kill BCR-dependent ABC DLBCL lines, supporting their clinical evaluation in patients with ABC DLBCL. Samples from four ABC DLBCL cell lines (HBL1, TMD8, OCILY3, and OCILY10) were exposed to 2.5 uM birinapant for 2, 4, 6, and 24 hours (n=16). Samples from 2 ABC DLBCL cell lines (HBL1 and TMD8) were transduced with shRNA and induced with doxycycline for 3 and 4 days (n=4).

Project description:Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) is an intracellular signaling enzyme that regulates B cell and myeloid cell functions. Due to its involvement in both innate and adaptive immune compartments, inhibitors of BTK have emerged as a therapeutic option in autoimmune disorders such as multiple sclerosis (MS). Brain penetrant small molecule BTK inhibitors may also help to address compartmentalized neuroinflammation which is proposed to underlie MS disease progression. BTK is expressed by microglia, the resident innate immune cells of the brain, however the precise roles of microglial BTK and the impact of BTK inhibitors on microglial functions is still being elucidated. Much research to date has also focused on the effects of BTK inhibitors using rodent disease models. Here we characterize the pharmacological and functional properties of fenebrutinib (FEN), a potent, highly selective, noncovalent, reversible BTK inhibitor, in human microglia and complex human brain cell systems including brain organoids. We find that FEN blocks the effects of microglial FcγR activation including cytokine and chemokine release, microglial clustering and neurite damage in diverse human brain cell systems. Gene expression analyses identified pathways linked to inflammation, matrix metalloproteinase production and cholesterol metabolism that were modulated by FEN treatment. In contrast, FEN had no significant impact on human microglial pathways linked to TLR4 or NLRP3 signaling nor myelin phagocytosis. Our study increases the understanding of BTK functions in human microglial signaling relevant to MS pathogenesis and suggests that FEN could attenuate detrimental microglial activity associated with FcγR activation in MS patients.

Project description:Interferon regulatory factor 4 (IRF4) is a transcriptional regulator with critical roles in the normal development and malignant transformation of lymphocytes. Recently we have shown that plasma cell cancers (multiple myeloma, MM) are addicted to an aberrant gene expression program ochestrated by wild-type IRF4 for their survival. Here we show that an aggressive malignancy of mature B cells, the activated B cell for of Diffuse Large B Cell lymphoma (ABC-DLBC), also depends on IRF4 for survival. With genome-wide expression profiling and localization (ChIP-Seq) assays, we identified IRF4 target genes in ABC-DLBCL as members of diverse pathways related to B cell biology and malignant behavior, distinct from IRF4 targets in MM. For example, we find the gene encoding the NFkB signal transduction adapter protein CARD11 is a target of IRF4 activation, driving the critical NFkB pathway in ABC-DLBCL. Further, we find enrichment of DNA binding motifs for ETS-IRF factors in regions of IRF4 binding in ABC-DLBCL suggesting cooperative activity between IRF4 and an ETS family transcription factor. Through complementation assays we show that IRF4 and the critical ABC-DLBCL ETS factor SPIB interact with one another and are key to ABC-DLBCL survival. Together our data show that ABC-DLBCL is addicted to the interaction between IRF4 and SPIB, in part through a positive feedback loop invovling CARD11 and the activation of the NFkB pathway. These data suggest theraepeutic potential in targeting the IRF4:SPIB interface in ABC-DLBCL. Gene expression was analyzed using Agilent human 4X44K oligo gene expression arrays. Cell lines (HBL1, OCILY3, TMD8-ABC-DLBCL; KMS12-MM) were infected with control (shControl, Cy3) or shIRF4_3'UTR (Cy5) constructs, and changes in gene expression were monitored over time after induction of the shRNA with doxycyclin. For each of the three ABC-DLBCL cell line a four timepoint series (24, 48, 72, 96 hrs) of shRNA induction was analyzed, for a total of 12 arrays. In HBL-1 a second shRNA targeting the IRF4 cds (shIRF4_cds) was used in a similar time course of shRNA induction (4 arrays). For the KMS12 MM cell line a three point time course was analyzed using the shIRF4_3'UTR with one technical (using the same RNA sample) duplicate time point measurement (4 arrays). ChIP-Seq data not provided.

Project description:Pathologic activation of the Toll-like receptor (TLR) pathway underlies various human disorders such as autoimmune diseases, chronic inflammatory diseases and lymphoid malignancies. Current therapy of these diseases relies on immunosuppressive or chemotherapeutic agents, but more effective therapeutics tailored to disease-causing mechanisms are needed. Pivotal to TLR signaling is the IL-1 receptor-associated kinase 4 (IRAK4), which is recruited to TLRs by the adaptor protein MyD88. Recruitment of IRAK kinases to MyD88, triggers the formation of a signaling competent myddosome complex, which underlies the pathogenesis of many immuno-inflammatory disorders, suggesting that IRAK4 inhibitors might be useful in the treatment of these diseases. Gain-of-function MYD88 mutations activate IRAK4 in several mature B cell malignancies, including activated B-cell-like diffuse large B cell lymphoma (ABC DLBCL). Development of selective IRAK4 inhibitors has been confounded by the challenging structure of the IRAK4 catalytic domain. Using structure-based drug design methodologies, we identified potent and selective IRAK4 inhibitors. These small molecules suppress LPS-induced TNFalpha production in vitro and in vivo, and are efficacious in mouse models of collagen-induced arthritis and MyD88-dependent inflammatory gout. Human ABC DLBCL cell lines that harbor the activating, oncogenic MyD88 L265P mutation are killed by IRAK4 inhibitors, both in vitro and in mouse xenograft models. IRAK4 inhibitors synergize with the BTK inhibitor ibrutinib, with the Syk inhibitor PRT062607, and with the Bcl-2 inhibitor ABT-199 in killing ABC DLBCL cells, suggesting new therapeutic strategies for this refractory cancer. Four ABC DLBCL cell lines (OCI-Ly10, TMD8, HBL1 and OCI-Ly3), were treated with either ND-2158 or the structurally related negative control compound ND-1659 for 6, 12, 24 or 36 h in culture. Gene expression profiling was performed using two-color human Agilent 4x44K gene expression arrays comparing signal from control compound-treated (ND-1659) control cells (Cy3), to cells treated with ND-2158 for the indicated times (Cy5).

Project description:The covalent Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) inhibitor ibrutinib is highly efficacious against multiple B-cell malignancies. However, it also has off-target effects and multiple mechanisms of resistance, including the C481S mutation. We hypothesized that small molecule-induced BTK degradation might be able to overcome some of the limitations of traditional enzymatic inhibitors. Here, we demonstrate that BTK degradation results in more durable suppression of signaling and proliferation in cancer cells than BTK inhibition and that BTK degraders are able to efficiently degrade BTK C481S. Moreover, we generated DD-03-171, an optimized lead compound that exhibits enhanced anti-proliferative effects on mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) cells in vitro as well as efficacy in a patient-derived xenograft model of MCL. These data suggest that targeted BTK degradation is an effective therapeutic approach in treating MCL and overcoming ibrutinib resistance, thereby addressing a major unmet need in the treatment of MCL and other B-cell lymphomas.
