Bruton’s tyrosine kinase inhibitor leads to bidirectional transcript regulation of Nurr1: A new key to Parkinson’s disease

ABSTRACT: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurological movement diseases with few therapeutic targets identified to date. The primary treatment for PD is levodopa, but it is only effective in the initial stage and induces side effects of the disease. To address this problem, we unveil the hitherto uncharacterized crucial role of Bruton’s tyrosine kinase protein (BTK) as a bidirectional transcriptional bio-regulator of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) expression via the modulation of nuclear receptor-related transcription factor 1 (Nurr1). The proteomics competition binding assay revealed that BTK binds to Nurr1 and transactivates TH promoter activity via Nurr1. The BTK inhibitor demonstrated remarkable effects in the mitochondrial permeability transition pore-induced oxidative stress model by significantly attenuating the levels of proinflammatory mediators via WNT/β-catenin and MAPK kinase signaling. These findings highlight the potential efficacy of BTK inhibitors as innovative therapeutics for PD.

Project description:Myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) levels are elevated in cancer patients and contribute to reduced efficacy of immune checkpoint therapy. MDSC express Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) and BTK inhibition with ibrutinib, an FDA-approved irreversible inhibitor of BTK, leads to reduced MDSC expansion/function in mice and significantly improves the anti-tumor activity of anti-PD-1 antibody treatments. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) was used to characterize the effect of ibrutinib on gene expression of FACS-enriched MDSC from patients with different cancer types (breast, melanoma, head and neck squamous cell cancer - HNSCC). Melanoma patient MDSC were treated in vitro for 4h with 5 µM ibrutinib or DMSO, processed for scRNA-seq using the Chromium 10x Genomics platform, and analyzed via the Seurat v4 standard integrative workflow. Baseline gene expression of MDSC from breast and HNSCC cancer patients revealed similarities among the top expressed genes. In vitro ibrutinib treatment of MDSC from melanoma patients resulted in significant changes in gene expression. GBP1, IL 1β and CXCL8 were among the top downregulated genes while RGS2 and ABHD5 were among the top upregulated genes (p<0.001). double positive CD14+CD15+ MDSC and PMN-MDSC responded similarly to BTK inhibition and exhibited more pronounced gene changes when compared to early MDSC and M-MDSC. Pathway analysis revealed significantly downregulated pathways including TREM1, nitric oxide signaling, and IL 6 signaling (p<0.004). ScRNA-seq revealed characteristic gene expression patterns for MDSC from different cancer patients. BTK inhibition led to the downregulation of multiple genes and pathways important to MDSC function and migration.
