A receptor tyrosine kinase network comprised of FGFRs, EGFR, ERBB2, and MET drives growth and survival of HNSCC cell lines.

ABSTRACT: We have previously shown that some gefitinib insensitive head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell lines exhibit dominant autocrine fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) signaling. Herein, we deployed a whole genome loss-of-function screen to identify genes whose knockdown potentiated the inhibitory effect of the FGFR inhibitor, AZ12908010, in HNSCC cell lines. Three HNSCC cell lines expressing a genome-wide shRNA library were treated with AZ8010 and the abundance of shRNA sequences was assessed by deep sequencing. Synthetic lethal hits were validated through use of specific inhibitors and independent shRNAs. We found that multiple alternate receptors provided protection from FGFR inhibition, including the receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (ERBB2) and hepatocyte growth factor receptor (MET). We showed that specific knockdown of either ERBB2 or MET in combination with FGFR inhibition led to increased inhibition of growth relative to FGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment alone. These results were confirmed using specific small molecule inhibitors of either ERBB family members or MET. Moreover, the combination of FGFR, MET and ERBB family inhibitors showed the largest inhibition of growth as compared to the double combinations. These results reveal a role for alternate RTKs in maintaining pro-growth and survival signaling in HNSCC cells in the setting of FGFR inhibition. Thus, improved therapies for HNSCC patients could involve rationally designed combinations of TKIs targeting FGFR, ERBB family members and MET.

Conditional loss of ErbB3 delays mammary gland hyperplasias induced by mutant PIK3CA but does not affect mammary tumor latency, gene expression or signaling

Project description:Mutations in PIK3CA, the gene encoding the p110α subunit of PI3K, induce transformation of mammary epithelial cells (MEC). Studies suggest the transforming action of mutant PIK3CA requires binding to activated receptor tyrosine kinases or adaptors. We examined in transgenic mice if ErbB3, a powerful activator of PI3K, is required for mutant PIK3CA-mediated MEC transformation. ErbB3 loss delayed PIK3CAH1047R-dependent mammary gland hyperplasia, but tumor latency, gene expression and markers of PI3K signaling were unaffected. In ErbB3-deficient tumors, mutant PI3K remained associated with other tyrosine phosphorylated adaptors, potentially explaining the dispensability of ErbB3 for tumorigenicity and PI3K activity. Combined inhibition of ErbB RTKs and PI3K with lapatinib and the p110α inhibitor BYL719, respectively, reduced PIK3CAH1047R-dependent tumor growth and PI3K signaling more potently than the p110α inhibitor alone. In human breast cancer cells harboring PIK3CAH1047R, the combination with BYL719 and an ErbB3 inhibitor synergistically inhibited tumor growth and P-Akt. These data suggest that basal tumor growth and PI3K signaling do not depend on ErbB RTKs in PIK3CAH1047R-expressing tumors. However, upon inhibition of p110α, these receptors limit the action of PI3K inhibitors potentially explaining the more potent effect of the combination against PI3K-mutant cancers. reference x sample

SILAC-based quantitative tyrosine phosphoproteomic profiling identifies alternative therapeutic targets to erlotinib in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

Project description:Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), a receptor tyrosine kinase is overexpressed in 90% of Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients. Clinical trials with EGFR-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as erlotinib have shown a modest activity in HNSCC alternate mechanisms of resistance are acquired. To investigate these acquired mechanisms of resistance and identify novel therapeutic targets we employed SILAC-based tyrosine phosphoteomic analysis of an isogenic pair of erlotinib sensitive (SCC-S) and resistant (SCC-R) HNSCC cell line. Quantitative phosphotyrosine profiling revealed 98 phosphopeptides belonging to 64 proteins and 66 phosphopeptides belonging to 52 proteins to be hyper and hypophosphorylated (≥2 fold) in SCC-R cells, respectively. Several proteins such MET proto-oncogene, receptor tyrosine kinase (MET) and CRK like proto-oncogene, adaptor protein (CRKL) known to mediate erlotinib resistance in HNSCC and lung cancer were found to be dysregulated. Bioinformatics analysis of differentially phosphorylated proteins showed enrichment of proteins involved in focal adhesion kinase (FAK) pathway downstream of EGFR. We identified and validated activation of several phosphorylation sites of protein tyrosine kinase 2 (PTK2) in SCC-R cells and its downstream targets. We further demonstrated that CUB-domain containing protein 1 (CDCP1), an upstream regulator of PTK2 activity and PTK2 can be targeted in combination as an alternative to erlotinib in HNSCC.

The ShcA PTB Domain Functions as a Biological Sensor of Phospho-tyrosine Signaling During Breast Cancer Progression

Project description:The ShcA adaptor possesses two phosphotyrosine binding motifs, which include an SH2 and a PTB domain. In the majority of cases, ShcA utilizes its PTB domain to engage activated receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). To establish the mportance of this domain during mammary tumorigenesis, we employed a ShcA mutant (R175Q) that no longer binds phospho-tyrosine residues via its PTB domain. We demonstrate that the ShcR175Q mutant delays mammary tumor onset n MMTV/MT transgenic animals. Paradoxically, we observe a robust increase in the growth and angiogenesis of emerging mammary tumors. ShcR175Q-expressing breast cancer cells increase fibronectin secretion and possess elevated levels f integrin α5/β1, the principle fibronectin receptor. Sustained integrin engagement activates Src, which in turn phosphorylates pro-angiogenic RTKs, including PDGFR, FGFR and Met, leading to increased VEGF secretion from ShcR175Q-xpressing breast cancer cells. Finally, we describe a ShcR175Q-dependent gene signature that stratifies breast cancer patients with a high microvessel density. This is the first study to demonstrate that intracellular signaling pathways ownstream of the ShcA PTB domain both positively and negatively regulate tumorigenesis during the various stages of breast cancer progression ShcA mutant (R175Q) vs NT/ShcA cells

Investigating a Novel Interaction of c-MET and BACH1 in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma Metastasis

Project description:Metastasis is estimated to be responsible for 90% of cancer deaths, and fewer than 10% of patients with metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) survive beyond 5 years. HNSCC is responsible for upwards of 270,000 global deaths annually, with up to 30% more cases projected annually by 2030. The proto-oncogene MET encodes for the tyrosine kinase receptor c-MET, which is overexpressed in over 80% of human papilloma virus (HPV)-negative HNSCC cases and particularly enriched in metastatic lymph nodes. c-MET is activated by its ligand, hepatocellular growth factor (HGF), and is known to promote cancer cell migration, proliferation, and metastasis through a variety of downstream effectors. Thus far, unfortunately, inhibition of c-MET has shown low efficacy as a single-agent therapy in clinical trials, which indicates a need for further understanding of the mechanisms underlying c-MET-mediated metastasis in HNSCC. We show here that human HNSCC cells upregulate expression of the transcription factor BACH1 through c-MET activation upon HGF treatment. In accordance with previous reports, HGF activation increased expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers. Similarly, BACH1 suppression reduced expression of these EMT markers. By pharmacological inhibition of c-MET by FDA-approved capmatinib in combination with hemin treatment to reduce BACH1 expression, migration was reduced compared to either treatment alone in scratch-wound migration assays. Collectively, these data indicate that BACH1 and c-MET are both necessary for the regulation of EMT and migration in HNSCC. Our data suggest the potential for combination therapy targeting both c-MET and BACH1 to reduce HNSCC metastasis.

MET-dependent modulation of cellular responses to ionizing radiation by quantitative phosphoproteomics

Project description:Increasing evidence suggests that inhibiting growth factor receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) signaling may modulate cellular responses to DNA-damaging agents widely used in cancer treatment. In that respect, the MET RTK is deregulated in abundance and/or activity in a variety of human tumors. Using two proteomic techniques, we explored how the MET inhibitor tepotinib modulates global cellular phosphorylation response to ionizing radiation (IR). Following an immunoaffinity-based phosphoproteomic discovery survey we selected candidate phosphorylation sites for extensive characterization by targeted proteomics focusing on phosphosites that consist of the SQ motif recognized by the PIKK-related kinases ATM, ATR and PRKDC. Several substrates of the DNA damage response (DDR) were confirmed to be modulated by sequential MET inhibition and IR, or MET inhibition alone.

The ARFGEF IQSEC1 is a targetable scaffold controlling collective cell invasion.

Project description:The signalling pathways underpinning cell growth and migration share overlapping components but what determines whether cells grow or move, when exposed to the same extrinsic signal, is unclear. We identify that in epithelial cancer cells cultured in extracellular matrix (ECM) these molecular functions can be uncoupled when signals are transduced through alternate transcript variants of IQSEC1, an ARF GTPase Exchange Factor. IQSEC1 associates with the receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) Met and acts as an organising centre for phosphoinositide signalling, activating ARF5- and ARF6-dependent PIP5-kinase activity, and scaffolding multiple components of the mTORC2 signalling complex to control Akt activation and cell growth. Expression of IQSEC1 variants containing extended N-terminal regions switch this output from growth to collective invasion by conferring association with the endocytic co-receptor LRP1, thereby enhancing Met internalisation and trafficking. These pro-invasive IQSEC1 variants localise the Met/LRP1/IQSEC1 signalling module to the tips of invasive protrusions to induce PI(3,4,5)P3-dependent collective invasion. Chemical or genetic inhibition of these alternate signalling modules targets growth or invasion, independently. Alternate IQSEC1-ARF GTPase signalling complexes thus control RTK signal output by influencing RTK trafficking and the balance between growth or invasion in epithelial cells. Elevated expression of this IQSEC1-ARF module occurs in prostate cancer patient metastases and predicts poor outcome. IQSEC1 may therefore represent a therapeutic vulnerability in prostate cancer cells.

RNA sequencing to identify differentially-expressed genes in HER3-depleted KatoII MET-amplified cancer cells

Project description:Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are recognized as targets of precision medicine in human cancer upon their gene amplification or constitutive activation, resulting in increased downstream signal complexity including heterotypic crosstalk with other RTKs. The Met hepatocyte growth factor RTK exhibits such reciprocal crosstalk with several members of the human EGFR (HER) family of RTKs when amplified in cancer cells. We observed that Met signaling converges on HER3 tyrosine phosphorylation across a panel of seven MET-amplified cancer cell lines and that HER3 is required for cancer cell expansion and oncogenic capacity in vitro and in vivo. In order to identify genes required for cancer cell proliferation in the MET-amplified setting whose expression, we stably transduced KatoII MET-amplified cells with shRNA targeting ERBB3, the gene encoding HER3. Stably-transduced cells were selected with puromycin, assayed for proliferative phenotype, and lysed for RNA extraction. Pooled libraries of total RNA were then sequenced using the Illumina HiSeq4000 platform, and differentially-expressed genes were identified from read counts normalized across samples. Differentially-expressed genes were further assayed for dependence on HER3 in other MET-amplified cell lines to identify genes recurrently dependent on HER3 in the MET-amplified setting.

Gene expression profile of RAS/RAF–wild-type colorectal cancer patient-derived spheroids II

Project description:Fibroblast growth factor receptor inhibitors (FGFRi) were introduced into clinical trials on several cancer types and found to be particularly efficacious on urothelial cancer and cholangiocarcinoma. Although many enrolled patients responded well in clinical trials, there were some patients who did not respond to FGFRi despite that their tumors carried the genomic changes that met the enrollment criteria. As already established, fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) share the downstream signaling pathway of MAPK activation. Accordingly, it is conceivable that chemotherapeutic inhibition of FGFR alone may leave the MAPK signaling unaffected when the signaling through EGFR is relatively strong. To test this hypothesis, we calculated the FGFR to EGFR mRNA ratio (F/E for short) of colorectal cancer stem cell (CRC-SC) spheroid, biliary-tract cancer, and urothelial cancer cell lines. As a result, CRC-SC spheroid and cancer cell lines responsive to FGFRi had higher F/E than non-responsive lines. In conclusion, we propose a novel parameter F/E as a biomarker that helps predict cancer chemosensitivity to FGFRi.
