Project description:microRNAs (miRNAs) can act as oncosuppressors or oncogenes, induce chemoresistance or chemosensitivity, and are major posttranscriptional gene regulators. Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), EGF receptor (EGFR), and V-Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) are major drivers of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aim of this study was to assess the miRNA profiles of NSCLCs driven by translocated ALK, mutant EGFR, or mutant KRAS to find driver-specific diagnostic and prognostic miRNA signatures. A total of 85 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded samples were considered: 67 primary NSCLCs and 18 matched normal lung tissues. Of the 67 primary NSCLCs, 17 were echinoderm microtubule-associated protein-like 4-ALK translocated (ALK(+)) lung cancers; the remaining 50 were not (ALK(-)). Of the 50 ALK(-) primary NSCLCs, 24 were EGFR and KRAS mutation-negative (i.e., WT; triple negative); 11 were mutant EGFR (EGFR(+)), and 15 were mutant KRAS (KRAS(+)). We developed a diagnostic classifier that shows how miR-1253, miR-504, and miR-26a-5p expression levels can classify NSCLCs as ALK-translocated, mutant EGFR, or mutant KRAS versus mutation-free. We also generated a prognostic classifier based on miR-769-5p and Let-7d-5p expression levels that can predict overall survival. This classifier showed better performance than the commonly used classifiers based on mutational status. Although it has several limitations, this study shows that miRNA signatures and classifiers have great potential as powerful, cost-effective next-generation tools to improve and complement current genetic tests. Further studies of these miRNAs can help define their roles in NSCLC biology and in identifying best-performing chemotherapy regimens.

Project description:To identify a plasma microRNA panel that could help to distinguish ALK positive with ALK negative NSCLC patients, plasma samples of 3 ALK-positive, 3 ALK-negative NSCLC, and 3 Healthy Subjects were selected for Agilent miRNA microarray analysis to detect differences in the expression levels of circulating miRNAs (n = 2568) between the above cohorts.

Project description:High anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) protein levels may be correlated with an unfavorable prognosis in neuroblastoma (NBL) patients, regardless of ALK mutation status. We therefore examined the correlation between levels of ALK, phosphorylated ALK (pALK) and downstream signaling proteins and response to ALK inhibition in a large panel of both ALK mutated (MUT) and wild type (WT) NBL cell lines. Six of the nineteen NBL cell lines had a point mutation and four an amplification of the ALK gene. ALK amplified cell lines showed similar ALK levels and ALK inhibitor sensitivity as WT cell lines and were therefore co-analyzed. The ALK mRNA (p=0.043), ALK 220 kDa (p=0.009) and ALK 140 kDa (p=0.025) protein levels were higher in ALK mutant (n=6) than WT cell lines (n=13). ALK mRNA and protein levels significantly correlated with ERK1 and ERK2 protein levels, and also with PHOX2B mRNA levels, a neural differentiation marker which is mutated in NBL. Response to ALK inhibitor TAE684 was also significantly correlated with ALK levels. ALK mutant cell lines (n=4) demonstrated a higher sensitivity towards ALK inhibitor TAE684 (14.9 fold more sensitive, p=0.004) than eight WT cell lines. These results underline the importance of ALK mutations but also ALK levels for response to ALK inhibitors in NBL cell lines. Furthermore, the strong correlation of PHOX2B and ALK suggests that neural differentiation stage may be correlated with ALK levels in neuroblastoma. These data will enhance understanding of ALK inhibitor response in future patient trials.

Project description:Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) most frequently mutated in neuroblastoma (NB) and is atractive molecular target for therapy. However, efficacy of the ALK inhibitor against ALK-amplified NB is unclear. To elucidate genetic alterations induced by treatment of the ALK inhibitor, we compared expression profile between ALK inhibitor-treated and DMSO-treated NB39nu cells using Agilent SurePrint G3 Human GE 8x60K V2 Microarray Kit

Project description:Starting with H3122 cells, which harbor the EML4-ALK E13;A20 fusion and are known to be sensitive to ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitors, we generated isogenic pairs of ALK TKI sensitive and ALK TKI resistant cell lines using established methods (see Chmeliecki, J et al Science Trans Med 2011). We modeled resistance against the currently FDA approved ALK TKI, crizotinib (also called PF-1066). We also modeled resistance against a novel more potent ALK inhibitor, X-376 (ref: Lovly, CM et al Cancer Research 2011). We compared gene expression profiles between the 'parental' (ALK TKI sensitive) H3122 cells and the drug resistant cells (H3122 CR for Crizotinib resistant cells and H3122 XR for X-376 resistant cells).

Project description:ALK and ROS1 fusions defines subsets of lung adenocarcinoma. Although ALK/ROS1 inhibitors improved therapeutic outcome of patients harboring those oncogenic fusions, complete responses were rare, and resistance eventually develops from the residual tumor. To under the mechanisms contributing to residual tumor formation, we performed phosphoproteomics to explore the signaling adaption shortly after ALK/ROS1 inhibition. We found the phosphorylation of Mig6, a potent inhibitor for EGFR, was decreased following ALK/ROS1 inhibition, impairing Mig6 binding and inhibition on EGFR. Furthermore, Mig6 mRNA and protein levels were decreased rapidly by ALK/ROS1 inhibitors, potentiating EGFR activity to support cell survival. We also uncovered a novel mechanism mediated by Mig6 to regulate EGFR activity without impacting EGFR phosphorylation, but rather altering signaling adaptor SHC1 binding to EGFR. Mig6 expression was also lost following long-term exposure to ALK/ROS1 inhibitors to support EGFR-mediated acquired resistance. Finally, a Mig6 EGFR-binding domain truncation mutation was identified in a patient-derived ROS1 cell line, rendering its resistance to ROS1 inhibitors but sensitivity to HER family inhibitors. Our work established a rationale to evaluate combinations of ALK/ROS1 and EGFR inhibitors to limit residual tumor formation, therefore preventing or delaying subsequent resistance emergence.
