Carboplatin-resistance-related DNA damage repair prognostic gene signature and its association with immune infiltration in breast cancer

ABSTRACT: Breast cancer is among the most prevalent malignant tumors globally, with carboplatin serving as a standard treatment option. However, resistance often compromises its efficacy. DNA damage repair (DDR) pathways are crucial in determining responses to treatment and are also associated with immune infiltration. This study aimed to identify the DDR genes involved in carboplatin resistance and to elucidate their effects on prognosis, immune infiltration, and drug sensitivity in breast cancer patients. We constructed the 3D-culture model of the MDA-MB-231 cell line, both resistant and sensitive to carboplatin, and identified a set of DDR genes. By integrating data from a public database, we established a prognostic signature comprising thirteen DDR genes. Our analysis indicated that this model is associated with immune infiltration patterns in breast cancer patients, particularly concerning CD8+ T cells and NK cells. Additionally, it demonstrated a significant correlation with sensitivity to other DDR-related drugs, suggesting its potential as a biomarker for treatment efficacy. Compared to the control group, TONSL-knockdown cell lines exhibited a diminished response to DNA-damaging agents, marked by a notable increase in DNA damage levels and enhanced drug sensitivity. Furthermore, single-cell analysis revealed elevated TONSL expression in dendritic and epithelial cells, particularly in triple-negative breast cancers.

Project description:Purpose:Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) commonly metastasizes to the brain and predicts poor prognosis with limited therapeutic options. TNBC frequently harbors BRCA mutations translating to platinum sensitivity; platinum response may be augmented by additional suppression of DNA repair mechanisms through poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase (PARP) inhibition. We evaluated brain penetrance and efficacy of Carboplatin +/- the PARP inhibitor ABT888, and investigated gene expression changes in murine intracranial (IC) TNBC models stratified by BRCA and molecular subtype status. Experimental design:Athymic mice were inoculated intra-cerebrally with BRCA-mutant: SUM149 (basal), MDA-MB-436 (claudin-low), or BRCA-wild-type: MDA-MB-468 (basal), MDA-MB-231BR (claudin-low) TNBC cells and treated with PBS control (IP, weekly), Carboplatin (50mg/kg/week, IP), ABT888 (25mg/kg/day, OG), or their combination. DNA-damage (?-H2AX) and apoptosis (cleaved-Caspase-3(cC3)) were assessed via IHC of IC tumors. Gene expression of BRCA-mutant IC tumors was measured. Results: Carboplatin+/-ABT888 significantly improved survival in BRCA-mutant IC models compared to control, but did not improve survival in BRCA-wild-type IC models. Carboplatin+ABT888 revealed a modest survival advantage versus Carboplatin in BRCA-mutant models. ABT888 yielded a marginal survival benefit in the MDA-MB-436 but not in the SUM149 model. BRCA-mutant SUM149 expression of ?-H2AX and cC3 proteins was elevated in all treatment groups compared to Control, while BRCA-wild-type MDA-MB-468 cC3 expression did not increase with treatment. Carboplatin treatment induced common gene expression changes in BRCA-mutant models.Conclusions: Carboplatin+/-ABT888 improves survival in BRCA-mutant IC TNBC models with corresponding DNA damage and gene expression changes. Combination therapy represents a promising treatment strategy for patients with TNBC brain metastases warranting further clinical investigation. reference x sample

Project description:Introduction: Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) was the foundation treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). The nCRT can improve the efficacy of immunotherapy on account of its in-situ vaccine effect. Objective: The aim is to identify stable and reliable transcriptome signatures to predict the efficacy of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) in patients with LARC. Methods: Immunophenotyping was established by using xCell immune cell infiltration abundance and consistent clustering in GSE39582 and verified in several data sets. The effects of immunophenotyping, follicular regulatory T cells, tumor associated fibroblasts (CAF) and tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) signatures on the efficacy of ICB were analyzed by using IMvigor210, GSE91061 and an independent Daping Hospital (DPH) cohort. Results: There are four stable and repeatable immune subtypes in rectal cancer, among which C1 is low immune infiltration type, C2 is high interstitial infiltration type, C3 is high immune infiltration type and C4 is ion channel type. C2 is mainly characterized by high infiltration CAF, C3 is characterized by high infiltration of cytotoxic T lymphocytes, high expression of PD-L1 and TLS. In rectal cancer patients receiving nCRT, immunophenotyping was not significantly associated with pathological remission rate, but immunophenotyping was an independent prognostic factor of RFS. In IMvigor210 patients treatment with atezolizumab, the pathological remission rates of C1, C2, C3 and C4 were 23.86%, 10.94%, 33.33% and 23.08% respectively (χ2 = 8.981, P = 0.029), which were 11.76%, 50.00%, 42.86% and 0.0% respectively in the GSE91061 patients treatment with nivolumab (Fisher's exact probability, P = 0.018). Both follicular regulatory T cells and CAF showed a further impact on the ICB therapeutic efficacy of C2 and C3 subtype. In addition, both GSE91404 and DPH cohorts showed that nCRT treatment induced a significant increase in the expression of TNFRSF9 and abundance of macrophages in C3 subtype. Conclusion: Our data suggest that there are four immune types of rectal cancer, which are related to the prognosis of patients. Among them, C3 and some C2 subtypes represents the patients who may benefit from ICB after nCRT treatment.
