Project description:Developing targeted therapy for cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL) patients still requires actionable mutated genes and deregulated pathways to be identified. There is increasing evidence that activating mutations in JAK genes and deregulated JAK/STAT signaling are important mechanisms involved in multiple B and T cell malignancies, including CTCL. Therefore, in this study we focused on studying the mutational status of JAK1, JAK2 and JAK3 genes in a series of human CTCL lesions and cell lines using next-generation sequencing (NGS). We found that 7 of 48 (14.7%) of the analyzed cases harbored mutations in the JAK1 and JAK3 genes that mainly affected the pseudokinase domain of the corresponding proteins. On the basis of these results, we used a specific JAK inhibitor (INCB018424) in a series of CTCL cell lines with deregulated JAK/STAT activity. Treatment of CTCL cells with INCB018424 resulted in dose-dependent reduction of activated STAT expression, diminished cell viability, and increased apoptosis. We also studied global changes in gene expression in cells with mutated JAK1 and JAK3 proteins treated with INCB018424 and identified multiple genes that were differentially regulated by JAK/STAT signaling, such as FGF20 (upregulated) and EGR1 (downregulated). Thus, our results show that the detection of deregulated JAK/STAT signaling in CTCL lesions via JAK mutations or other surrogate markers may serve to indicate the clinical use of JAK/STAT inhibitors. 3 replicates of cells treated with DMSO or JAKi during 30 min and 3h

Project description:In this study we compared the effects of IL-2, IL-15, and IL-21 on the gene expression, activation of cell signaling pathways, and functional properties of cells derived from the CD4+ cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). Whereas both IL-2 and IL-15 that signal through receptors that share the common gamma chain and the beta chain modulated the expression of >1,000 genes, IL-21 that signals via the receptor also containing gamma chain up-regulated <40 genes. All three cytokines induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Jak1 and Jak3. However, only IL-2 and IL-15 strongly activated STAT5, PI3K/Akt, and MEK/ERK signaling pathways. In contrast, IL-21 selectively activated STAT3. Whereas all three cytokines protected CTCL cells from apoptosis, only IL-2 and IL-15 promoted their proliferation. The effects of the cytokine stimulation were Jak3- and Jak1-kinase dependent. These findings document the vastly different impact of IL-2 and IL-15 vs. IL-21 on malignant CD4+ T cells. They also suggest two novel therapeutic approaches to CTCL and, possibly, other CD4+ T cell lymphomas: inhibition of the Jak1/Jak3 kinase complex and, given the known strong immunostimulatory properties of IL-21 on CD8+ T, NK, and B cells, application of this cytokine to boost an immune response against malignant CD4+ T cells. Experiment Overall Design: Sez-4 cell line was starved of IL-2 for 16h, washed twice and placed into 6-well plates in 10ml RPMI (10% FBS) for 2h followed by pre-treating for 30â?? with pan-Jak inhibitor (300 nM), Jak3 inhibitor (300 nM), or drig solvent and cultured with IL-2 (200U) or medium alone for 4 h.

Project description:The JAK family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases includes four subtypes (JAK1, JAK2, JAK3, and TYK2) and is responsible for signal transduction downstream of diverse cytokine receptors. JAK inhibitors have emerged as important therapies for immuno(onc)ological disorders, but their use is limited by undesirable side effects presumed to arise from poor subtype selectivity, a common challenge for inhibitors targeting the ATP-binding pocket of kinases. Here, we describe the chemical proteomic discovery of a druggable allosteric cysteine present in the non-catalytic pseudokinase domain of JAK1 (C817) and TYK2 (C838), but absent from JAK2 or JAK3. Electrophilic compounds selectively engaging this site block JAK1-dependent transphosphorylation and cytokine signaling, while appearing to act largely as “silent” ligands for TYK2. Importantly, the allosteric JAK1 inhibitors do not impair JAK2-dependent cytokine signaling and are inactive in cells expressing a C817A JAK1 mutant. Our findings thus reveal an allosteric approach for inhibiting JAK1 with unprecedented subtype selectivity.

Project description:IL2 signals are transmitted through JAK1 and JAK3, but the transcriptomic consequences of each to the overall response is unclear. Here we analyzed the relative contribution of JAK1 and JAK3 to the NK cell IL2 response in vitro using titrated doses of isoform specific JAK inhibitors. Blockade of JAK1 and JAK3 have unequal effects on IL2-induced transcripts at pharmacologically relevant doses.

These were cultured with IL2 (250U/ml) in the presence or absence of JAK1/3 inhibitors for 8hrs in vitro. Cells were then transferred directly into TriZol. RNA was prepared in Trizol for gene expression profiling by Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Arrays.

Project description:Activating JAK and STAT mutations were discovered in many T-cell malignancies including ALK- anaplastic large cell lymphomas (ALCL). However, such mutations often occur in a minority of patients. To investigate the clinical application of targeting Janus Kinase (JAK) for ALK- ALCL, we treated ALK- cell lines of different histologic origins with JAK inhibitors. Interestingly, most exogenous cytokine independent cell lines responded to JAK inhibition regardless of JAK mutation status. JAK inhibitor sensitivity correlated with STAT3 phosphorylation status of tumor cells. Employing retroviral shRNA knockdown, we demonstrated that these JAK inhibitor sensitive cells were dependent on both JAK1 and STAT3 for survival. JAK1 and STAT3 gain-of-function mutations were found in some but not all JAK inhibitor sensitive cells. Moreover, the mutations alone could not explain the JAK1/STAT3 dependency as wild-type JAK1 or STAT3 was sufficient to promote cell survival in the cells that had either JAK1or STAT3 mutations. To investigate whether other mechanisms were involved, we knocked down upstream receptors GP130 or IL-2Rγ. Knockdown of GP130 or IL-2Rγ induced cell death in select JAK inhibitor sensitive cells. High levels of cytokine expression including IL-6 were demonstrated in cell lines as well as in primary ALK- ALCL tumors. Finally, ruxolitinib, a JAK1/2 inhibitor, was effective in vivo in a xenograft ALK- ALCL model. Our data suggest cytokine receptor signaling was required for tumor cell survival in diverse forms of ALK- ALCL even in the presence of JAK1/STAT3 mutations. Therefore, JAK-inhibitor therapy might benefit patients with ALK- ALCL that are pSTAT3+.

Project description:Nodal marginal zone lymphoma (NMZL) is one of the few B-cell tumors still remaining orphan of cancer gene lesions. By combining whole exome sequencing (WES), deep sequencing of tumor-related genes, high resolution SNP array and RNAseq, here we aim at characterizing the coding genome of NMZL and at disclosing the pathways that are molecularly deregulated in this lymphoma. The study was based on 35 NMZL (tumor representation >70%) with a diagnosis confirmed by: i) pathological revision of lymph node histology; and ii) lack of clinico-radiological evidence of extranodal or splenic disease either at diagnosis or during follow-up. Consistent with NMZL, the cases investigated: i) lacked CD5, CD10 and cyclin D1 expression, 7q deletion, t(11;14), t(14;18), t(11;18) and t(1;14) translocations; and ii) recurrently harbored +3 (14%), +12 (14%) and preferential usage of the IGHV4-34 gene (17%). WES (HiSeq 2500, Illumina; mean coverage per sample: 38x-114x) and high resolution SNP array (Cytoscan HD, Affymetrix) of tumor/normal DNA pairs from 18 discovery NMZL identified 557 non-synonymous somatic mutations (average: 30.8/case) affecting 504 genes and 51 copy number abnormalities (CNA) (average: 3.2/case). To further characterize mutation recurrence, the 504 discovered genes were investigated in an independent validation panel of 17 NMZL by targeted sequencing of tumor/normal DNA pairs (MiSeq; target region: 1.6 Mb; mean coverage per sample: 171x-386x). The 17 validation NMZL were also assessed for CNA by high resolution SNP arrays. RNAseq of 11 discovery NMZL did not identify any recurrent gene fusion. By compiling the results of WES and high resolution SNP array, 39 genes were recurrently affected in >3/35 (9%) NMZL by mutations (n=30 genes) or focal CNA (n=9 genes). Among these, MLL2 (34%), PTPRD (20%) and NOTCH2 (20%) were most frequently mutated. Overall, recurrently mutated genes pointed to the molecular deregulation of specific programs in NMZL, namely JAK/STAT, NOTCH, NF-κB and toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling, cell cycle, chromatin remodeling/transcriptional regulation and immune escape (Fig. 1A). JAK/STAT signaling was targeted by mutually exclusive lesions in 43% of NMZL, and the protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor delta (PTPRD) tumor suppressor was the most frequently affected gene of this system in 20% of NMZL (Fig. 1B-E). PTPRD inhibits JAK/STAT signaling through the dephosphorylation of active p-STAT3. PTPRD lesions in NMZL were represented by somatic mutations that truncated or modified the tyrosine phosphatase domain, as well as deletions of the entire gene locus, including focal and biallelic losses (Fig. 1B-C). Interrogation of institutional and public genomic datasets revealed that PTPRD mutations are specific for NMZL, being rare or absent in other mature B-cell tumors, including splenic marginal zone lymphoma (Fig. 1D). Other JAK/STAT signaling genes affected in NMZL were JAK2, CXCR4 (6%), PTPN2, JAK3, STAT2, SH2B3 and CUL3 (3%) (Fig. 1E). NF-kB signaling was altered in 54% of NMZL by lesions of TNFAIP3 (14%), BCL10, REL (11%), CARD11 (9%), TRAF3 and BIRC3 (6%). NOTCH signaling was targeted in 40% of NMZL by mutations that alternatively involved NOTCH2 (20%), SPEN (11%), RBPJL (6%), FBXW7, DTX1, ITCH and MAML2 (3%). TLR signaling was targeted in 17% of NMZL, including mutations of MYD88 (9%), IRAK1BP1, PELI2 and SEMP6 (3%). Several cell cycle genes were molecularly deregulated in 43% of NMZL, including CDKN2A, PARK2, PARKG (9%), CDC16, CDCA2 (6%), CCNA1, CCNT2, CDK5, CDK13, CDK20, BTG2, HECA and PLK2 (3%). Most (71%) NMZL harbored genetic lesions affecting epigenetic modifiers (MLL2: 34%; CREBBP: 9%; EP300: 6%; TRRAP: 6%), histones (20%) or transcriptional co-repressors (TBL1XR1: 14%; ARID1A: 14%; RCOR1: 11%; NCOR2: 9%, ARID1B: 9%). Finally, the TNFRSF14 and FAS genes, involved in T cell-mediated tumor surveillance, were disrupted by mutations and/or deletions in 17% and 14% NMZL, respectively. A number of actionable cellular programs are molecularly deregulated in NMZL, including JAK/STAT, NOTCH, NF-κB and TLR signaling, cell cycle and chromatin remodeling. PTPRD lesions are among the most recurrent alterations in NMZL and appear to be specific for this lymphoma type across mature B-cell tumors. Cytoscan HD arrays (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA) experiments were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from cryopreserved diagnostic samples.
