Inhibition of the STAT3/Fanconi anemia axis is synthetic lethal with PARP inhibitor in breast cancer

ABSTRACT: The targeting of cancer stem cells (CSCs) has proven to be an effective approach for limiting tumor progression, thus necessitating the identification of new drugs with anti-CSC activity. Through a high-throughput drug repositioning screen, we identified the antibiotic Nifuroxazide (NIF) as a potent anti-CSC compound. Utilizing a click chemistry strategy, we demonstrated that NIF is a prodrug that is specifically bioactivated in breast CSCs. Mechanistically, NIF-induced CSC death is a result of a synergistic action that combines the generation of DNA interstrand crosslinks with the inhibition of the Fanconi anemia (FA) pathway activity. NIF treatment mimics FA-deficiency through the inhibition of STAT3, which we identified as a non-canonical transcription factor of FA-related genes. NIF induces a chemical HRDness in CSCs that (re)sensitizes breast cancers with innate or acquired resistance to PARP inhibitor (PARPi) in PDX models. Our results suggest that NIF may be useful in combination with PARPi for the treatment of breast tumors, regardless of their HRD status

A Phase I/II Study of Active Immunotherapy With Cancer Stem Cells Vaccine for Colorectal Cancer

Project description:Most studies of cancer stem cells (CSC) involve the inoculation of cells from human tumors into immunosuppressed mice, preventing an assessment on the immunologic interactions and effects of CSCs. In this study, the investigators examined the vaccination effects produced by CSC-enriched populations from histologically distinct murine tumors after their inoculation into different syngeneic immunocompetent hosts. Enriched CSCs were immunogenic and more effective as an antigen source than unselected tumor cells in inducing protective antitumor immunity.Immune sera from CSC-vaccinated hosts contained high levels of IgG which bound to CSCs, resulting in CSC lysis in the presence of complement.CTLs generated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells or splenocytes harvested from CSC-vaccinated hosts were capable of killing CSCs in vitro. Mechanistic investigations established that CSC-primed antibodies and T cells were capable of selective targeting CSCs and conferring anti-tumor immunity.

Characterization of TNG348: a selective, allosteric USP1 inhibitor that synergizes with PARP inhibitors in tumors with DNA damage repair alterations

Project description:Inhibition of the deubiquitinating enzyme USP1 can induce synthetic lethality in tumors characterized by homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) and represents a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of BRCA1/2 mutant cancers, potentially including patients whose tumors have primary or acquired resistance to PARP inhibitors (PARPi). Here, we present a comprehensive characterization of TNG348, an allosteric, selective, and reversible inhibitor of USP1 (USP1i). TNG348 induces dose-dependent accumulation of ubiquitinated protein substrates both in vitro and in vivo. CRISPR screens show that TNG348 exerts its anti-tumor effect by disrupting the translesion synthesis pathway of DNA damage tolerance through RAD18-dependent ub-PCNA induction. Though TNG348 and PARPi share the ability to selectively kill HRD tumor cells, CRISPR screens reveal that TNG348 and PARPi do so through discrete mechanisms. Particularly, knocking out PARP1 causes resistance to PARPi but sensitizes cells to TNG348 treatment. Consistent with these findings, combination of TNG348 with PARPi leads to synergistic anti-tumor effects in HRD tumors, resulting in tumor growth inhibition and regression in multiple mouse xenograft tumor models. Importantly, our data in human cancer models further show that the addition of TNG348 to PARPi treatment can overcome acquired PARPi resistance in vivo. While the clinical development of TNG348 has been discontinued due to unexpected liver toxicity in patients (NCT06065059), the present data provides preclinical and mechanistic support for the continued exploration of USP1 as a drug target for the treatment of patients with BRCA1/2 mutant or HRD cancers.

Clinical relevance of BRCA1 promoter methylation testing in ovarian cancer patients.

Project description:Homologous-recombination deficiency (HRD) is closely related to PARPi benefit in ovarian cancer (OC). The capacity of BRCA1 promoter methylation to predict prognosis and HRD status remains unclear. We aimed to correlate BRCA1 promoter methylation levels in patients with high-grade OC to HRD status and clinical behavior to assess its clinical relevance.

Transcription profiling of human HMLER breast cancer cells treated with paclitaxel and salinomycin-treated HMLER breast cancer cells

Project description:Screens for agents that specifically kill epithelial cancer stem cells (CSCs) have not been possible due to the rarity of these cells within tumor cell populations and their relative instability in culture. We describe here an approach to screening for agents with epithelial CSC-specific toxicity. We implemented this method in a chemical screen and discovered compounds showing selective toxicity for breast CSCs. One compound, salinomycin, reduces the proportion of CSCs by >100-fold relative to paclitaxel, a commonly used breast cancer chemotherapeutic drug. Treatment of mice with salinomycin inhibits mammary tumor growth in vivo and induces increased epithelial differentiation of tumor cells. In addition, global gene expression analyses show that salinomycin treatment results in the loss of expression of breast CSC genes previously identified by analyses of breast tissues isolated directly from patients. This study demonstrates the ability to identify agents with specific toxicity for epithelial CSCs Experiment Overall Design: Experimentally transformed HMLER breast cancer cells were treated in culture with either paclitaxel (10nM) or salinomycin (1uM) for one week. There were three biologic replicates for each treatment condition.

Expression profiles of CD24-/CD44+/ESA+ population in MDA-MB-231 and its highly metastatic variants.

Project description:Breast cancer is a curable disease if it is diagnosed at an early stage. However, only little options are left once the tumor is metastasized to distant organs, and more than 90% of breast cancer death is attributed to metastatic disease. The process of metastasis is highly complex and involves many steps for successful colonization of tumor cells at a target organ. According to the cancer stem cell (CSC) theory, which still remains a hypothesis, these metastatic cells must have stem cell-like capability for their self-renewal in addition to their invasive ability. Therefore, it has been predicted that a “metastatic stem cell”, which is distinct from a cancer stem cell, must exist in the primary tumor mass. To identify genes that are involved in metastasis of CSCs, we isolated CSC populations from a well-established model cell line of breast cancer, MDA-MB231, and that of highly metastatic variants, 231BoM-1833 and 231BrM-2a, using CD24, CD44 and EpCAM (ESA), which have been identified as surface markers for CSCs in breast cancers. Overall yield of CSCs from these cells ranged from 2% to 4%. We then performed global expression profile analysis for these CSCs using the Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0ST array. CSC populations (CD24-/CD44+/ESA+) from MDA-MB231, 231BoM-1833 and 231BrM-2a were isolated by magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS) using specific antibodies to these surface markers. The total RNA was isolated from the CSC populations using the RNeasy RNA isolation kit (Qiagen). The RNA was then converted to cDNA and they were hybridized to the Human Gene 1.0ST chip (Affymetrix). The data was normalized using the RMA algorithm of the Expression Console software (Affymetrix). A comparison of transcriptional profiles was then performed in CSCs of highly metastatic cell lines (231BoM-1833 and 231BrM-2a) compared to the CSCs of MDA-MB-231.

Increased cholesterol biosynthesis identified as a key feature and a therapeutic target of cancer stem cells as revealed by proteomic comparison of clinical breast cancer tissue and corresponding patient-derived xenografts and mammospheres

Project description:Cancer stem cells (CSCs) comprise a small subpopulation of undifferentiated cancer cells with the ability to self-renew and give rise to the heterogeneous cancer cell lineages that form tumorous masses. Thus, tumor eradication may be greatly improved by specifically targeting CSCs, as they exhibit resistance to conventional therapy. To gain insight into the unique biology of CSCs, we developed patient-derived xenograft (PDX) tumors from ER-negative breast cancer patient tissue from which we isolated mammospheres, a method known to enrich for cells with CSC-properties. An unbiased, comparative global proteomic analysis using label-free mass spectrometry was performed on the patient tumor tissues and corresponding PDX tumors and mammospheres. Good concordance between the proteome profiles of patient tumor tissue and corresponding PDX tumors was observed. However, lower abundance of immune- and extracellular matrix-related proteins and higher abundance of proteins associated with cell-to-cell adhesion including desmosome proteins and β-catenin were observed in PDX versus patient tumors. Interestingly, analysis of proteins elevated in mammospheres vs. PDX tumors identified an enrichment of proteins associated with de novo cholesterol synthesis. The clinical relevance of increased cholesterol biosynthesis protein expression was verified in a large gene expression data set of clinical breast cancers showing correlation with shorter relapse-free survival. RNA interference and chemical inhibition of the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway reduced mammosphere formation and growth of CSCs derived from PDX tumors and cancer cell lines. Our findings identify the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway as central for CSC growth and a potential therapeutic target for CSC as well as providing an additional mechanistic explanation for the observed benefit of statins in breast cancer treatment.

miR-146 connects stem cell identity with metabolism and pharmacological resistance in breast cancer

Project description:Although ectopic overexpression of miRNAs can influence mammary normal and cancer stem cells (SCs/CSCs), their physiological relevance remains uncertain. Here, we found that the miR-146 family is linked to SC identity, since: i) their expression is very high in SCs/CSCs from human/mouse primary mammary tissues; correlates with the basal-like breast cancer subtype, which typically has a high CSC content; and specifically distinguishes cells with SC/CSC identity; ii) miR-146 depletion reduces SC/CSC self-renewal in vitro and the number of tumor-initiating cells in vivo. Analysis of the transcriptional effects of miR-146 in breast SC-like cells revealed a complex network of highly connected miR-146 targets related to quiescence, transcription and metabolic pathways (one-carbon pool, purine synthesis and folate metabolism). As predicted by our analysis, SCs/CSCs display innate resistance to anti-folate therapy that can be reversed by miR-146 depletion, unmasking a “hidden vulnerability” that could be exploited for the development of anti-CSC therapies.
