Efficacy of Polo-life kinase 1 inhibitors in preclinical models of small cell lung cancer

ABSTRACT: Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) remains a significant health problem with more than 180,000 newly afflicted patients worldwide per year. Recurrence following initial frontline therapy is associated with resistance to salvage treatment and remains the area of greatest unmet need for SCLC patients. This study systematically examined the efficacy of three different polo like kinase 1 (PLK1) inhibitors in preclinical models of SCLC. The study uncovered robust in vitro activity of PLK1 inhibitors against SCLC cell lines and confirmed the efficacy in patient-derived xenograft models of platinum sensitive and resistant SCLC. A known challenge of targeted therapies in the clinic is the inevitable development of resistance and loss of efficacy. Therefore, understanding the potential mechanisms driving acquired resistance could offer additional strategies to enhance efficacy, delay the development of resistance or reverse the resistance. We generated lab-derived resistant SCLC cells by continuous exposure of parental cells to increasing concentration of onvansertib and performed RNA-seq to identify potential resistance mechanisms.

Polo-like kinase inhibitors increase AAV production by halting cell cycle progression

Project description:Recombinant Adeno-associated viruses (rAAV) are commonly used in gene therapy for preclinical research and therapeutic applications. Despite its clinical efficacy, the manufacturing of rAAV faces challenges in productivity and quality, leading to limited availability. In this study, we aimed to identify compounds that increase the capacity of cells to produce AAV9 with a high-throughput small-molecule screening strategy. With the Arrayed Targeted Library for AAV Screening platform, we screened a library of 3,300 small molecules and identified several targets, including cell-cycle modulators, G protein-coupled receptor modulators, histone deacetylate inhibitors, Janus kinase inhibitors, and metabolic modulators. Most notably, we identified Polo-like kinase isoform 1 (PLK1) inhibitors as enhancers of AAV production. PLK1 inhibition using HMN-214 increased AAV production, and was largely consistent across HEK293 cell lines, vector payloads and capsid serotypes. Using cell cycle and RNA-sequencing analysis, we show that PLK1 inhibition halts cells in the G2/M phase and blocks their exit from the M to G1 phase. These findings can be used to develop more cost-effective methods to increase AAV yield during production in the manufacturing process.

Polo-like kinase 1 inhibitors differentiate triple-negative breast cancer towards a luminal cell fate

Project description:Plasticity delineates cancer subtypes with more or less favourable outcomes. In breast cancer, triple-negative is the subtype that lacks the expression of major differentiation markers (i.e. estrogen receptor [ER]), ant its high cellular plasticity results in higher aggressiveness and poor prognosis compared to other subtypes. Whether plasticity poses a vulnerability to cancer cells remains elusive. Here, we show that cancer cell plasticity can be exploited to differentiate triple-negative breast cancer. Using a high-throughput reporter drug screen with 9,501 compounds, we identify three polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) inhibitors as major inducers of ER protein expression and downstream activity in triple-negative breast cancer cells via the transcription factor BATF. PLK1 inhibition upregulates a cell differentiation program characterized by increased DNA damage, mitotic arrest and ultimately cell death. Notably, cells surviving PLK1 inhibition have decreased tumorigenic potential, and targeting PLK1 in already established tumours reduces tumour growth both in cell line and patient-derived xenograft models. In addition, genes upregulated upon PLK1 inhibition are correlated with expression in normal breast tissue and confer better overall survival in breast cancer patients. Our results indicate that differentiation therapy based on PLK1 inhibition might be an alternative strategy to treat triple-negative breast cancer.

Effect of Gilteritinib, Metformin and Combination treatments on gene expression in MOLM13-RES cells

Project description:Here, we report that Metformin shows a striking synergistic effect with Gilteritinib in suppressing cell proliferation and promoting apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in multiple FLT3-ITD AML cell lines, including FLT3 TKI-resistant MOLM13 cells. Mechanistically, the combinational treatment synergistically suppresses Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) expression and phosphorylation of FLT3/STAT5/ERK/mTOR in MOLM13-RES cells. Intriguingly, our retrospective clinical analysis has unveiled a significant correlation between Metformin intake and improved survival rates among FLT3-ITD AML patients. Collectively, the cotreatment of Metformin and Gilteritinib shows robustly enhanced therapeutic efficacy in treating FLT3-mutated AML by synergistically suppressing PLK1 expression and phosphorylation of FLT3/STAT5/ERK/mTOR.

Mass spectrometry analysis of in vitro PLK1 phosphorylation

Project description:Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) protects against genome instability by ensuring timely and accurate mitotic cell division, and its activity is tightly regulated throughout the cell cycle. Although the pathways that initially activate PLK1 in G2 are well-characterized, the factors that directly regulate PLK1 in mitosis remain poorly understood. Here, we identify that human PLK1 activity is sustained by the DNA damage response kinase Checkpoint kinase 2 (Chk2) in mitosis. Chk2 directly phosphorylates PLK1 T210, a residue on its T-loop whose phosphorylation is essential for full PLK1 kinase activity. Loss of Chk2-dependent PLK1 activity causes increased mitotic errors, including chromosome misalignment, chromosome missegregation, and cytokinetic defects. Moreover, Chk2 deficiency increases sensitivity to PLK1 inhibitors, suggesting that Chk2 status may be an informative biomarker for PLK1 inhibitor efficacy. This work demonstrates that Chk2 sustains mitotic PLK1 activity and protects genome stability through discrete functions in interphase DNA damage repair and mitotic chromosome segregation.

PDK1 Signaling Towards PLK1-Myc Activation Confers Oncogenic Transformation and Tumor Initiating Cell Activation and Resistance to mTOR-targeted Therapy.

Project description:Although 3-Phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase-1 (PDK1) has been predominately linked to PI3K-AKT pathway, it may also evoke additional signaling outputs to promote tumorigenesis. Here we report that PDK1 directly induces phosphorylation of Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1), which in turn induces Myc phosphorylation and protein accumulation. We show that PDK1-PLK1-Myc signaling is critical for cancer cell growth and survival and small molecule inhibition of PDK1/PLK1 provides an effective approach for therapeutic targeting Myc-dependency. Intriguingly, PDK1-PLK1-Myc signaling induces an embryonic stem cell-like gene signature associated with aggressive tumor behaviors and is a robust signaling axis driving cancer stem cell (CSC) self renewal. Finally, we show that PLK1 inhibitor synergizes with mTOR inhibitor to induce synergistic anti-tumor effect in colorectal cancer by antagonizing a compensatory Myc induction. These findings identify a novel pathway in human cancer and CSC activation and provide a therapeutic strategy for targeting Myc-associated tumorigenesis and therapeutic resistance.

Genetic enhancers of partial PLK1 inhibition reveal hypersensitivity to kinetochore perturbations

Project description:Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) is a serine/threonine kinase required for mitosis and cytokinesis. As cancer cells are often hypersensitive to partial PLK1 inactivation, chemical inhibitors of PLK1 have been developed and tested in clinical trials. However, these molecules alone were not completely effective. PLK1 promotes numerous molecular and cellular events in the cell division cycle. To date, it is unclear which of these events most crucially depend on PLK1 activity. We used a CRISPR-based genome-wide screening strategy to identify genes whose inactivation enhances cell proliferation defects upon partial chemical inhibition of PLK1. Genes identified encode proteins that are functionally linked to PLK1 in multiple ways. Among them, factors that promote centromere and kinetochore function were clearly enriched. In particular, inactivation of the kinesin KIF18A or SKA1 in PLK1-compromised cells results in mitotic defects, activation of the spindle assembly checkpoint and nuclear reassembly defects. Our results suggest that functions of PLK1 at kinetochores are most sensitive to its inhibition, and point at KIF18A as a possible target for combinatorial therapies using existing PLK1 inhibitors.

The non-canonical PARP1 inhibitor target, PARP16, contributes to talazoparib polypharmacology and synergy with WEE1 inhibitors: Phosphoproteomics

Project description:PARP1 inhibitors (PARP1is ) display single-agent anticancer activity in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and other neuroendocrine tumors independent of BRCA1/2 mutations. Here, we determined the differential efficacy of multiple clinical PARP1is in SCLC cells. Compared to the other PARP1is (rucaparib, olaparib and niraparib), talazoparib displayed the highest potency across SCLC, also in SLFN11-negative cells. Chemical proteomics identified PARP16 as a unique talazoparib target in addition to PARP1. Silencing PARP16 significantly reduced cell survival, particularly in combination with PARP1 inhibition. Drug combination screening revealed talazoparib synergy with the WEE1/PLK1 inhibitor, adavosertib. Global phosphoproteomics identified disparate effects on cell cycle and DNA damage response signaling, illustrating underlying mechanisms. Synergy with adavosertib was more pronounced for talazoparib than olaparib and silencing PARP16 further reduced cell survival in combination with olaparib and adavosertib. Together, these data suggest that PARP16 contributes to talazoparib’s overall mechanism of action and constitutes a new actionable target in SCLC.
