Targeting the NF-κB signaling pathway in Notch1-induced T cell leukemia

ABSTRACT: T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), unlike other ALL types, is only infrequently associated with chromosomal aberrations, but it was recently shown that the majority of TALL patients carry activating mutations in the NOTCH1 gene. However, the signaling pathways and target genes responsible for Notch1-induced neoplastic transformation remain undefined. We report here that constitutively-active Notch1 activates the NF-κB pathway transcriptionally and via the IκB kinase (IKK) complex, thereby causing increased expression of multiple well-characterized NF-κB target genes in bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells and progenitors. Our observations demonstrate that the NF-κB pathway is highly active in established human T-ALL and that inhibition of the pathway can efficiently restrict tumor growth both in vitro and in vivo. These studies identify NF-κB as one of the major mediators of NOTCH1-induced transformation and suggest that the NF-κB pathway is a potential target of future targeted therapies of T-ALL. Keywords: gene expression analysis, signaling pathway alteration

The Notch/Hes1 pathway sustains NF-κB activation through CYLD repression in T cell leukemia

Project description:The NF-κB pathway is a critical regulator of the immune system and has been implicated in cellular transformation and tumorigenesis. NF-κB response is regulated by the activation state of the IκB kinase (IKK) complex and triggered by a wide spectrum of stimuli. We previously reported that NF-κB is downstream of Notch1 in T cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (T-ALL), however both the mechanisms involving Notch1-induced NF-κB activation and the potential importance of NF-κB in the maintenance of the disease are unknown. Here we visualize Notch-induced NF-κB activation using both human T-ALL cell lines and animal models of this type of leukemia. We show that it is not Notch1 itself but Hes1, a canonical Notch target, the responsible for sustaining IKK activation in T-ALL. Hes1 exerts its effects by a direct transcriptional repression of the deubiquitinating enzyme CYLD, a well-characterized IKK inhibitor. Consistently, CYLD expression is significantly reduced in primary T-ALL leukemias. Finally, we demonstrate that IKK complex inhibition is a promising option for the targeted therapy of T-ALL as suppression of IKK function affected both the survival of human T-ALL cells in vitro and the maintenance of the disease in vivo.

The Notch/Hes1 pathway sustains NF-M-NM-:B activation through CYLD repression in T cell leukemia

Project description:The NF-M-NM-:B pathway is a critical regulator of the immune system and has been implicated in cellular transformation and tumorigenesis. NF-M-NM-:B response is regulated by the activation state of the IM-NM-:B kinase (IKK) complex and triggered by a wide spectrum of stimuli. We previously reported that NF-M-NM-:B is downstream of Notch1 in T cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (T-ALL), however both the mechanisms involving Notch1-induced NF-M-NM-:B activation and the potential importance of NF-M-NM-:B in the maintenance of the disease are unknown. Here we visualize Notch-induced NF-M-NM-:B activation using both human T-ALL cell lines and animal models of this type of leukemia. We show that it is not Notch1 itself but Hes1, a canonical Notch target, the responsible for sustaining IKK activation in T-ALL. Hes1 exerts its effects by a direct transcriptional repression of the deubiquitinating enzyme CYLD, a well-characterized IKK inhibitor. Consistently, CYLD expression is significantly reduced in primary T-ALL leukemias. Finally, we demonstrate that IKK complex inhibition is a promising option for the targeted therapy of T-ALL as suppression of IKK function affected both the survival of human T-ALL cells in vitro and the maintenance of the disease in vivo.

Ubiquitination profile of polarized macrophages

Project description:Previous studies linked mac activation with the ubiquitination (ub) status of key proteins in inflammatory signal pathways. Lysine-48 ub (K48-ub) of the NF-κB inhibitor (IκB), the final checkpoint of the NFκB pathway, leads to IκB degradation and consequent NF-κB-associated inflammation. In contrast, TRAF6, an upstream positive regulator of the NF-κB pathway, is modulated by K63-ub, leading to its conformational change and activation. However, a comprehensive analysis of ub profiles of polarized macs has not been reported. If a unique ub signature is associated with individual mac subsets is not known.

ATM-Dependent Phosphorylation of Nemo SQ Motifs is Dispensable for Nemo-Mediated Gene Expression Changes in Response to DNA Double Strand Breaks

Project description:In response to DNA double strand breaks (DSBs), the ATM kinase activates NF-κB factors to stimulate gene expression changes that promote survival and allow time for cells to repair damage. In cell lines, ATM can activate NF-κB transcription factors via two independent, convergent mechanisms. One is ATM-mediated phosphorylation of nuclear NF-κB essential modulator (Nemo) protein, which leads to monoubiquitylation and export of Nemo to the cytoplasm where it engages the IκB kinase (IKK) complex to activate NF-κB. Another is DSB-triggered migration of ATM into the cytoplasm where it promotes monoubiquitylation of Nemo and resulting IKK-mediated activation of NF-κB. ATM has many other functions in the DSB response beyond activation of NF-κB, and Nemo activates NF-κB downstream of diverse stimuli, including developmental or proinflammatory stimuli such as lipopolysaccharides (LPS). To elucidate the in vivo role of DSB-induced, ATM-dependent changes in expression of NF-κB-responsive genes, we generated mice expressing phosphomutant Nemo protein lacking consensus SQ sites for phosphorylation by ATM or related kinases. We demonstrate that these mice are viable/healthy, fertile, and exhibit overall normal B and T lymphocyte development. Moreover, treatment of their B lineage cells with LPS induces normal NF-κB-regulated gene expression changes. Furthermore, in marked contrast to results from a pre-B cell line, primary B lineage cells expressing phosphomutant Nemo treated with the genotoxic drug etoposide induce normal ATM- and Nemo-dependent changes in expression of NF-κB-regulated genes. Our data demonstrate that ATM-dependent phosphorylation of Nemo SQ motifs in vivo is dispensable for DSB-signaled changes in expression of NF-κB-regulated genes.

Expression of ZAP70 in CLL activates NF-κB signalling

Project description:Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a disease with a highly variable prognosis. The clinical course can however be predicted thanks to prognostic markers. Poor prognosis is associated with expression of a B cell receptor (BCR) from unmutated immunoglobulin variable heavy-chain genes (IgVH) and expression of zeta associated protein of 70 kDa (ZAP-70). The reason why ZAP-70 expression is associated with poor prognosis and whether the protein has a direct pathogenic function is at present unknown. By transfer of ZAP-70 to CLL cells, we show here that expression of ZAP-70 in CLL cells leads to increased expression of the NF-κB target genes interleukin-1β (IL-1β), IL-6 and IL-8 upon BCR triggering. This could be blocked by inhibition of NF-κB signaling through inhibition of IκB kinases (IKK). Transcriptome analysis identified a NF-κB RelA signature imposed by ZAP-70 expression in BCR stimulated CLL cells. We conclude that ZAP-70 acts directly as an amplifier of NF-κB signaling in CLL cells which could be an underlying mechanism for its association with poor prognosis and which may represent a therapeutic target.

A novel YDDX linear motif mediates docking of the IKK kinase to substrates: structural and functional insights

Project description:The inhibitor of kB kinase (IKK) is the master regulator of the nuclear factor kB (NF-kB) pathway, involved in inflammatory, immune and apoptotic responses. In the ‘canonical’ NF-kB pathway, IKK phosphorylates inhibitor of kB (IkB) proteins and this triggers ubiquitin-mediated degradation of IkB, leading to release and nuclear translocation of NF-B transcription factors. The data presented show that the IKK and IKK subunits recognize a YDDX docking site located within the disordered C-terminal region of IkBa. Our results also suggest that IKK contributes to the docking interaction with higher affinity as compared to IKK.

CDK12 mediated transcriptional regulation in U2OS cells

Project description:While activation of canonical NF-κB signaling through the IKK complex is well studied, few regulators of NIK-dependent non-canonical p52 nuclear translocation have been identified. We discovered a novel role for cyclin dependent kinase 12 (CDK12) in transcriptionally regulating the non-canonical NF-κB pathway. High-content phenotypic screening identified a novel compound, 919278, which inhibits lymphotoxin β receptor (LTβR)- and FN14-dependent p52 nuclear translocation, but not TNFα receptor (TNFR)-mediated, canonical NF-κB p65 nuclear translocation. Chemoproteomics identified cyclin dependent kinase 12 (CDK12) as the target of 919278. CDK12 inhibition by 919278, THZ1, or siRNA knock down all affect similar global transcriptional changes and prevent LTβR and FN14-dependent MAP3K14 (NIK) mRNA induction and subsequent protein accumulation. In addition, 919278 and THZ1 treatment reduce RNA Pol II CTD phosphorylation. This powerful approach of coupling a phenotypic screen with chemoproteomics revealed a novel regulatory pathway of the non-canonical NF-κB pathway that could serve as a therapeutic target in autoimmunity and cancer.

Alpha-kinase 1 functions upstream of IKKs to regulate NF-κB activation in Helicobacter infection

Project description:Gastric mucosa responds to the pathogen Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) by producing and release of pro-inflammatory cytokines that activate the innate immune system mainly through activation of the transcription factor NF-κB. Although NF-κB signaling is well studied for many possible inducers, induction by H. pylori remains poorly understood. Here, we performed a high-throughput genome-wide RNAi screen for genes influencing H. pylori-induced NF-κB activation. In comparison to TNFα or IL‐1β NF‐κB signaling, we identified 21 proteins unique necessary for H. pylori NF-κB pathway and 24 factors that inhibited the activation. Furthermore, we present here the R/Bioconductor package Nested Effect Model for systematic use in high-throughput screens to classify newly identified factors. We identified alpha kinase 1 (ALPK1) as particular important for the H. pylori NF‐κB pathway without affecting TNFα or IL‐1β signaling. ALPK1 silencing inhibits activity of TAK1 and the IκB kinases (IKKs), degradation of the NF‐κB inhibitor IκBα, nuclear translocation of the NF‐κB subunit p65, and transcription of the NF‐κB target genes, e.g. IL‐8. Thus, we identify ALPK1 as a novel inflammatory regulator functioning particularly in the NF‐κB signaling network activated by H. pylori.

Ancestral function of Inhibitors-of-kappaB regulates Caenorhabditis elegans development (RNA-Seq)

Project description:NF-κB-mediated signaling is maintained silent by the action of IκB proteins, whose canonical role is to sequester NF-κB in the cytoplasm. An alternative chromatin role for IκB members have been shown to affect stemness and cell differentiation but the involvement of NF-κB in this function has not been excluded. NFKI-1 and IKB-1 are IκB homologs in Caenorhabditis elegans, which lacks NF-κB nuclear effectors. nfki-1 and ikb-1 mutants present developmental defects that phenocopy mutations in Polycomb genes and demethylases as utx-1. suggesting a role for C. elegans IKB proteins in chromatin regulation, which is supported by various lines of evidence:(i) we detected NFKI-1 in the nucleus; (ii) NFKI-1 and IKB-1 bind to histones and Polycomb proteins, (iii) NFKI-1 and IKB-1 bind to chromatin in vivo, and (iv) mutations in nfki-1 and ikb-1 alter chromatin marks . Thus, ancestral IκB inhibitors may exert nuclear functions regulating of gene expression and development.
