Project description:Development of resistance causes failure of drugs targeting receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) networks, and represents a critical challenge for precision medicine. Here we show that PHLDA1 down-regulation is critical to acquisition and maintenance of drug resistance in RTK-driven cancer. Using FGFR inhibition in endometrial cancer cells, we identify an Akt-driven compensatory mechanism underpinned by down-regulation of PHLDA1. We demonstrate broad clinical relevance of our findings, showing that PHLDA1 down-regulation also occurs in response to RTK-targeted therapy in breast and renal cancer patients, as well as following trastuzumab treatment in HER2+ breast cancer cells. Crucially, knockdown of PHLDA1 alone was sufficient to confer de novo resistance to RTK inhibitors, and induction of PHLDA1 expression re-sensitised drug resistant cancer cells to targeted therapies, identifying PHLDA1 as a biomarker for drug response and highlighting the potential of PHLDA1 reactivation as a means of circumventing drug resistance.

Project description:Much cell-to-cell communication is facilitated by cell surface receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). These proteins phosphorylate their downstream cytoplasmic substrates in response to stimuli such as growth factors. Despite their central roles, the functions of many RTKs are still poorly understood. To resolve the lack of systemic knowledge, we used three complementary methods to map the molecular context and substrate profiles of RTKs. We used affinity purification coupled to mass spectrometry (AP-MS) to characterize stable binding partners and RTK-protein complexes, proximity-dependent biotin identification (BioID) to identify transient and proximal interactions, and an in vitro kinase assay to identify RTK substrates. To identify how kinase interactions depend on kinase activity, we also used kinase-deficient mutants. Our data represent a comprehensive, systemic mapping of RTK interactions and substrates. This resource adds information regarding well-studied RTKs, offers insights into the functions of less well-studied RTKs, and highlights RTK-RTK interactions and shared signaling pathways

Project description:Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) and protein phosphatases comprise protein families that play crucial roles in cell signaling. However, a comprehensive picture of how RTKs functionally associate with phosphatases remains elusive. We aimed to study this problem by using two protein-protein interaction (PPI) approaches, the Membrane Yeast Two-Hybrid (MYTH) and the Mammalian Membrane Two-Hybrid (MaMTH), to map the PPIs between 48 human RTKs and 126 phosphatases. The resulting RTK-phosphatase interactome reveals a considerable number of novel interactions and suggests specific roles for different phosphatase families. Additionally, the differential PPIs of some protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTP) and their mutants suggest diverse mechanisms of these PTPs in the regulation of RTK signaling. We further investigated the biological functions of several interactors, and found that PTPRH and PTPRB directly dephosphorylate EGFR and repress its downstream signaling. In contrast, PTPRA plays a dual role in EGFR signaling since besides dephosphorylating EGFR, it conversely enhances downstream ERK signaling through activating SRC. We present the first comprehensive RTK-phosphatase interactome study, providing a broad and deep view of RTK signaling.

Project description:The ErbB4 receptor isoforms JM-a and JM-b differ within their extracellular juxtamembrane (eJM) domains. Here, ErbB4 isoforms are used as a model to address the effect of structural variation in the eJM domain of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK) on downstream signaling. A specific JM-a-like sequence motif is discovered, and its presence or absence (in JM-b-like RTKs) in the eJM domains of several RTKs is demonstrated to dictate selective STAT activation. STAT5a activation by RTKs including the JM-a like motif is shown to involve interaction with oligosaccharides of N-glycosylated cell surface proteins such as β1 integrin, whereas STAT5b activation by JM-b is dependent on TYK2. ErbB4 JM-a- and JM-b-like RTKs are shown to associate with specific signaling complexes at different cell surface compartments using analyses of RTK interactomes and super-resolution imaging. These findings provide evidence for a conserved mechanism linking a ubiquitous extracellular motif in RTKs with selective intracellular STAT signaling

Project description:Glioblastomas (GBMs), which are the most deadly malignant brain tumors of children and adults, infiltrate the brain and grow rapidly, and are resistant to current therapies. Glioblastomas (GBMs) frequently display mutations that activate receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), such as EGFR, which are thought to cooperate with additional factors to drive tumorigenesis. To identify and characterize genetic pathways that cooperate with RTKs to drive GBM progression, we performed RNA sequencing on several cell cultures created from surgical specimens from tumors with alterations in RTKs, and these cultures were grown as neurospheres in serum-free media used for normal neural stem/progenitor cell cultures. Under these conditions, GBM cells retain many defining features and mutations found in primary tumors. For comparison, we profiled commercially available human normal neural stem cells (HNPCs), which were grown under the same conditions. Data from these cell cultures was analyzed for transcripts differentially expressed between GBM cells and HNPCs, which showed that GBM cells that show RTK alterations strongly overexpressed the PDGFA and IGF2 secreted factors, which likely cooperate with EGFR to drive tumor progression.

Project description:Expression data from MDA-MB231 human breast cancer cells treated with metalloproteinase inhibitor (10uM BB94), MEK inhibitor (3uM PD325901), or DMSO control shows substantial overlap in the transcriptional responses arising from MEK and protease inhibition, suggesting a shared mechanism of action. Kinase inhibitor resistance often involves upregulation of poorly understood “bypass” signaling pathways. Here, we show that extracellular proteomic adaptation is one path to bypass signaling and drug resistance. Proteolytic shedding of surface receptors, which can provide negative feedback on signaling activity, is blocked by kinase inhibitor treatment and enhances bypass signaling. In particular, MEK inhibition broadly decreases shedding of multiple receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) including HER4, MET, and most prominently AXL, an ADAM10 and ADAM17 substrate, thus increasing surface RTK levels and mitogenic signaling. Progression-free survival of melanoma patients treated with clinical BRAF/MEK inhibitors inversely correlates with RTK shedding reduction following treatment, as measured non-invasively in blood plasma. Disrupting protease inhibition by neutralizing TIMP1 improves MAPK inhibitor efficacy, and combined MAPK/AXL inhibition synergistically reduces tumor growth and metastasis in xenograft models. Altogether, extracellular proteomic rewiring through reduced RTK shedding represents a surprising mechanism for bypass signaling in cancer drug resistance.

Project description:Oncogenic transformation of individual cell fates by developmental signaling cascades and transcription factors triggers diverse cancer types. Chordoma is a rare, aggressive tumor arising from transformed notochord remnants. Various potentially oncogenic factors have been found deregulated in chordoma and its metastases, yet clear causation remains uncertain. In particular, expression of the notochord-controlling transcription factor Brachyury is hypothesized as key molecular driver in chordoma formation, yet an in vivo model to causally test its oncogenic potential in the notochord is missing. Here, we apply a zebrafish model of chordoma onset to identify the notochord-transforming potential of tumor-implicated candidate genes in vivo. We find that overexpression of human and zebrafish Brachyury, including a version with augmented transcriptional activity, is insufficient to initiate notochord hyperplasia in vivo. In contrast, the repeatedly chordoma-implicated receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) genes EGFR and KDR/VEGFR2 are sufficient to transform developmental notochord cells, akin to direct activation of Ras. Analysis of transcriptome and sub-cellular organization from transformed notochords suggests that aberrant activation of RTK/Ras signaling attenuates processes required for the differentiation of notochord cells. Taken together, our results provide first in vivo indication for a lack of tumor-initiating potential of Brachyury expression in the notochord, and suggest activated RTK signaling as potent hyperplasia-initiating event in chordoma.

Project description:The discovery of activating mutations in receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) leads to clinical testing of RTK inhibitors (TKIs). However, the rapid acquisition of resistance limits TKI effectiveness. Here we establish TKI-resistant cells that propagate in the absence of RTK signaling. Relative to sensitive cells, TKI-resistant cells display decreased N6-methyladenosine (m6A), a ubiquitous and reversible modification on RNA, but upregulated fat mass and obesity-associated gene (FTO), an m6A demethylase. Notably, the naïve leukemia cell populations are heterogeneous with respect to FTO levels. Cells with higher intrinsic and transient FTO expression demonstrate reduction of m6A methylation and TKI sensitivity with higher tumorigenic. Genetic or pharmacological dysfunction of FTO increases m6A abundance sensitizing resistant cells to TKIs. Mechanistically, FTO-mediated m6A demethylation promotes mRNA stability and protein translation rate, upregulating oncogenes that are indispensable for survival and proliferation. Our findings therefore establish a role of FTO-dependent m6A demethylation for TKI-resistance, offering a therapeutic window for incorporating m6A modulators in counteracting acquired TKI resistance.

Project description:KRAS mutation is widely presumed to confer independence from upstream RTK signalling, however emerging evidence from mouse models of lung cancer suggests that ERBB RTKs may amplify signalling through RAS isoforms and participate in mutant RAS-driven lung cancer. This is one of 3 datasets where we examined the transcriptional impact of treatment of KRAS mutant human lung cancer cell lines with the multi-ERBB inhibitor Neratinib
