Project description:Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), commonly driven by KRAS mutations, is responsible for 7% of all cancer mortality. The first allele-specific KRAS inhibitors were recently approved in LUAD, but clinical benefit is limited by intrinsic and acquired resistance. LUAD predominantly arises from alveolar type 2 (AT2) cells, which function as facultative alveolar stem cells by self-renewing and replacing alveolar type 1 (AT1) cells. Using genetically engineered mouse models, patient-derived xenografts, and patient samples we found inhibition of KRAS promotes transition to a quiescent AT1-like cancer cell state in LUAD tumors. Similarly, suppressing Kras induced AT1 differentiation of wild-type AT2 cells upon lung injury. The AT1-like LUAD cells exhibited high growth and differentiation potential upon treatment cessation, whereas ablation of the AT1-like cells robustly improved treatment response to KRAS inhibitors. Our results uncover an unexpected role for KRAS in promoting intra-tumoral heterogeneity and suggest targeting alveolar differentiation may augment KRAS-targeted therapies in LUAD.

Project description:Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. TP53 tumor suppressor gene mutations occur in 50% of lung adenocarcinomas (LUADs) and are linked to poor prognosis, but how p53 suppresses LUAD development remains enigmatic. We show here that p53 suppresses LUAD by governing cell state, by promoting alveolar type 1 (AT1) differentiation. Using mice expressing oncogenic Kras and null, wild-type, or hypermorphic p53 alleles in alveolar type 2 (AT2) cells, we observed graded effects of p53 on LUAD initiation and progression. RNA-sequencing and ATAC-sequencing of LUAD cells uncovered a p53-induced AT1 differentiation program during tumor suppression in vivo through direct DNA binding, chromatin remodeling, and AT1 gene induction. Single-cell transcriptomics analyses revealed that during LUAD evolution, p53 promotes AT1 differentiation through action in a transitional cell state analogous to a transient intermediary seen during AT2-to-AT1 differentiation in alveolar injury repair. Notably, p53 inactivation resulted in the inappropriate persistence of these transitional cancer cells accompanied by upregulated growth signaling and divergence from lung lineage identity, characteristics associated with LUAD progression. Analysis of p53wt and p53-null mice showed that p53 also directs alveolar regeneration after injury, by regulating AT2 self-renewal and promoting transitional cell differentiation into AT1 cells. Collectively, these findings illuminate mechanisms of p53-mediated LUAD suppression, in which p53 governs alveolar differentiation, and suggest that tumor suppression reflects a fundamental role of p53 in orchestrating tissue repair after injury.
