Borrowing Transcriptional Kinases to Activate Apoptosis [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Protein kinases are disease drivers whose therapeutic targeting traditionally centers on inhibition of enzymatic activity. Here chemically induced proximity is leveraged to convert kinase inhibitors into context-specific activators of therapeutic genes. Bivalent molecules that link ligands of the transcription factor B-cell lymphoma 6 (BCL6) to ATP-competitive inhibitors of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are developed to re-localize CDK to BCL6-bound loci on chromatin and direct phosphorylation of Pol II. The resulting BCL6-target proapoptotic gene expression translates into killing of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) cells at 72h with EC50s of 0.9 – 10nM and specific ablation of the BCL6-dependent germinal center response in mice. The molecules exhibit 10,000-fold lower cytotoxicity in normal lymphocytes and are well tolerated in mice. Genomic and proteomic evidence corroborate a gain-of-function mechanism where, instead of global enzyme inhibition, a fraction of total kinase activity is borrowed and re-localized to BCL6-bound loci. The strategy demonstrates how kinase inhibitors can be used to context-specifically activate transcription, accessing new therapeutic space.

Relocalizing transcriptional kinases to activate apoptosis_Proteomics Data

Project description:Kinases are critical regulators of cellular function that are commonly implicated in the mechanisms underlying disease. Most drugs that target kinases are molecules that inhibit their catalytic activity, but here we used chemically induced proximity to convert kinase inhibitors into activators of therapeutic genes. We synthesized bivalent molecules that link ligands of the transcription factor B cell lymphoma 6 (BCL6) to inhibitors of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). These molecules relocalized CDK9 to BCL6-bound DNA and directed phosphorylation of RNA polymerase II. The resulting expression of pro-apoptotic, BCL6-target genes caused killing of diffuse large B cell lymphoma cells and specific ablation of the BCL6-regulated germinal center response. Genomics and proteomics corroborated a gain-of-function mechanism in which global kinase activity was not inhibited but rather redirected. Thus, kinase inhibitors can be used to context-specifically activate transcription. This PRIDE entry contains the raw proteomics data and DIA-NN search output.

Recruitment of BCL6 to target genes in Philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Project description:The Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) encodes the oncogenic BCR-ABL1 tyrosine kinase, which defines a subset of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) with a particularly unfavorable prognosis. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) are widely used to treat patients with leukemia driven by BCR-ABL1 and other oncogenic tyrosine kinases. In response to TKI-treatment, BCR-ABL1 ALL cells upregulate BCL6 protein levels by ~90-fold, i.e. to similar levels as in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with BCL6 translocations. In this study, we used genome tiling arrays to identify BCL6 target genes with specific recruitment of BCL6.

Three Ph+ ALL cell lines (BV-173, SUP-B15 and TOM-1) were treated in the presence or absence of 10 μM STI571 (Imatinib) or in the presence of both 10 μM STI571 and 20 μM RI-BPI for 24 hours.

Frequent mutations of FBXO11 identify BCL6 as a therapeutic target in Burkitt Lymphoma

Project description:BCL6 is a key oncogene in lymphoma pathogenesis. The expression of BCL6 in lymphoid cells can be deregulated by several mechanisms, including chromosomal translocations, somatic mutations in the promoter regulatory regions or reduced proteasome-mediated degradation. FBXO11 was recently identified as a major ubiquitin ligase involved in the degradation of BCL6 and is frequently inactivated in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). In this work, we found that FBXO11 is frequently mutated in Burkitt lymphoma (BL) but rarely mutated in other BCL6-positive lymphomas, such as follicular lymphoma (FL). All mutations tested impaired FBXO11 mediated BCL6 degradation and FBXO11 knock-out completely stabilized BCL6 levels in human BL cell lines. Conditional deletion of one copy or both copies of FBXO11 in c-Myc-driven B cell lymphoma in mice accelerated lymphomagenesis, genetically confirming that FBXO11 is a haplo-insufficient oncosuppressor in lymphoma. In both FBOX11 WT and deficient BL mouse and human cell lines, blockade of BCL6 via a specific degrader or BCL6 inhibitors, impaired lymphoma growth in vitro and in vivo, an effect further enhanced by co-inhibition of c-Myc activity. Overall these findings not only establish FBXO11 as one of the most frequently mutated genes in BL, but also elucidate its biological functions in lymphomagenesis and thereby identify BCL6 as a specific therapeutic target in BL.

Gene-expression profile in a series of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) patients

Project description:PIM serine/threonine kinases are overexpressed, translocated or amplified in multiple B-cell lymphoma types. We have explored the frequency and relevance of PIM expression in different B-cell lymphoma types, and investigated whether PIM inhibition could be a rational therapeutic approach. Increased expression of PIM2 was detected in subsets of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBLC), follicular lymphoma (FL), marginal zone lymphoma-MALT type (MZL-MALT), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and nodal marginal zone lymphoma (NMZL) cases. Increased PIM2 protein expression was associated with an aggressive clinical course in ABC-DLBCL patients. Pharmacological and genetic inhibition of PIM2 revealed p4E-BP1(Thr37/46) and p4E-BP1(Ser65) as molecular biomarkers characteristic of PIM2 activity, and indicated the involvement of PIM2 kinase in regulating mTORC1. The simultaneous genetic inhibition of all three PIM kinases induced changes in apoptosis and cell cycle. In conclusion, we show that PIM2 kinase inhibition is a rational approach in DLBCL treatment, identify appropriate biomarkers for pharmacodynamic studies, and provide a new marker for patient stratification. Gene-expression profiling was conducted in a series of 114 B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients (DLBCL, FL, MALT, MCL, CLL and NMZL). Seven freshly frozen lymph nodes and six freshly frozen reactive tonsils were used as controls.

Rewiring Cancer Drivers to Activate Apoptosis

Project description:Genes that drive the proliferation, survival, invasion and metastasis of malignant cells have been identified for manyhuman cancers. Independent studies have identified cell death pathways that eliminate cells by an altruistic form of suicide. The coexistence of the cell death pathways with the driver mutations suggest that the cancer driver could be reprogrammedto activate cell death. We have invented a new class of molecules: TCIPs (Transcriptional/EpigeneticChemical 20Inducers of Proximity) that recruit the cancer driver, or a downstream transcription factor,to the promoters of cell death genesmthereby activating their expression. To develop this concept, we have focused on diffuse largeB cell lymphoma(DLBCL),in which BCL6 is amplified or mutated. BCL6 binds to the promoters of cell death genes and epigenetically suppresses their expression. We produced the first TCIPs by chemically linking BCL6 inhibitors with small molecule binders to transcriptional activators. Several of these molecules robustly kill DLBCL at single-digit nanomolar concentrations, including chemotherapy-resistant, TP53-mutant lines. The dominant gain-of-function approach provided by TCIPs allows access to therapeutic space unreachable to conventional small molecule inhibitors or degraders, RNAi,or CRISPR(i). TCIPs are relatively non-toxic to normal cells and selective in malignant cells, reflecting their need for coincident expression of both target proteins for effective killing. The later attribute should allow highly personalized treatment. The general TCIP concept has applications in elimination of senescent cells, enhancing expression of therapeutic genes, treatment of diseases produced by haploinsufficiency,and activation of immunogens for immunotherapy.
