Ferroptotic Cell Death upon BCL2 Inhibition

ABSTRACT: B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) is a leading cause of death in childhood and outcomes in adults remain dismal. There is therefore an urgent clinical need for therapies that target the highest risk cases. Mutations in the histone acetyltransferase CREBBP confer high-risk and increased chemoresistance in ALL. Performing a targeted drug-screen in isogenic human cell lines, we identified a number of small molecules that specifically targeted CREBBP-mutated B-ALL, with the most potent the BCL2-inhibitor Venetoclax. Of note, this acted through a non-canonical mechanism resulting in ferroptotic rather than apoptotic cell death. CREBBP-mutated cell lines showed differences in cell-cycle, metabolism, lipid composition and response to oxidative stress, predisposing them to ferroptosis, which were further dysregulated upon acquisition of Venetoclax resistance. Lastly, small-molecule inhibition of CREBBP pharmacocopies CREBBP-mutation, sensitizing B-ALL cells, regardless of genotype, to Venetoclax-induced ferroptosis in-vitro and in-vivo, providing a potential novel drug combination for broader clinical translation in B-ALL.

Genetic or pharmacological inactivation of CREBBP sensitizes B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia to Ferroptotic Cell Death upon BCL2 Inhibition [CUT&RUN]

Project description:B-cell acute lymphoblasTc leukemia (B-ALL) is a leading cause of death in childhood and outcomes in adults remain dismal.

Genetic or pharmacological inactivation of CREBBP sensitizes B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia to Ferroptotic Cell Death upon BCL2 Inhibition

Project description:We performed a targeted drug screen in isogenic human cell lines, identifying a number of actionable small molecules that specifically target CREBBP-mutated B-ALL. The most potent was the BCL2 inhibitor Venetoclax, which acts through a non-canonical mechanism resulting in ferroptotic cell death. CREBBP-mutated cell lines showed differences in cell-cycle, metabolism and response to oxidative stress. Lastly, we demonstrate that small-molecule inhibition of CREBBP sensitizes B-ALL cells, regardless of genotype, to Venetoclax-induced ferroptosis in-vitro and in-vivo, providing a potential novel drug combination for broader clinical translation in B-ALL.

Pharmacologic Reduction of Mitochondrial Iron Triggers a Noncanonical BAX/BAK-Dependent Cell Death

Project description:Cancer cell metabolism is increasingly recognized as providing an exciting therapeutic opportunity. However, a drug that directly couples targeting of a metabolic dependency with the induction of cell death in cancer cells has largely remained elusive. Here we report that the drug-like small-molecule ironomycin reduces the mitochondrial iron load, resulting in the potent disruption of mitochondrial metabolism. Ironomycin promotes the recruitment and activation of BAX/BAK, but the resulting mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization (MOMP) does not lead to potent activation of the apoptotic caspases, nor is the ensuing cell death prevented by inhibiting the previously established pathways of programmed cell death. Consistent with the fact that ironomycin and BH3 mimetics induce MOMP through independent nonredundant pathways, we find that ironomycin exhibits marked in vitro and in vivo synergy with venetoclax and overcomes venetoclax resistance in primary patient samples.

RNA-seq of human pancreatic cancer cell line PANC-1 treated with RSL-3, N6F11, Fin56 and Erastin against untreated controls

Project description:Ferroptotic cell death is dependent on unrestricted lipid peroxidation rather than activation of apoptotic effector caspases. A large number of ferroptosis activators have been reported recently. We used gene sequencing to analyze the effects of four ferroptosis activators (RSL3, N6F11, Fin56 and Erastin) on global gene expression in human PDAC1 cell line.

Improved Prediction of Venetoclax and Azacitidine Efficacy in Acute Myeloid Leukemia through Machine Learning

Project description:Despite the transformative impact of venetoclax-azacitidine in treating acute myeloid leukemia (AML), reliable markers for accurately predicting patient responses remain urgently needed. To address this challenge, we employed a multidisciplinary approach that combined transcriptomic profiling, ex vivo drug sensitivity testing, functional assays, and clinical data to identify robust predictors of venetoclax-azacitidine response. We pinpointed a set of core genes linked to both ex vivo and in vivo drug responsiveness, validated through CRISPR-Cas9 screens in the setting of both venetoclax and azacitidine therapies. In particular, silencing BCL2L1 and PINK1 preferentially enhanced response to the venetoclax-azacitidine treatment. Building on these insights, we further developed and validated an 8-gene random forest model (RF8) that demonstrated high specificity and sensitivity in four independent cohorts comprising 498 patients. This model was capable of distilling downstream effects of genetic alterations to assist in predicting treatment response and outperformed existing genetic mutation-based signatures. Furthermore, the RF8 score demonstrated a nearly monotonic relationship with venetoclax-azacitidine response probabilities and patient outcomes, enabling precise stratification of patients. These findings illustrated the feasibility of translating integrated transcriptomic and drug-response profiling data into more refined risk stratification approaches, offering a new avenue for optimizing clinical decision-making in AML.

“Direct to Drug” screening as a precision medicine tool in multiple myeloma

Project description:Seventy-six FDA approved oncology drugs and emerging therapeutics were evaluated in 25 multiple myeloma (MM) and 15 non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma cell lines and in 113 primary MM samples. Ex vivo drug sensitivities were mined for associations with clinical phenotype, cytogenetic, genetic mutation and transcriptional profiles. We investigated the predictive value of anti-apoptotic BCL2 family member transcriptomic ratios as biomarkers of venetoclax sensitivity. RNA-seq analysis was available in 38 primary patient samples, from which we identified the 9 most (median AUC 0.09409) and least (median AUC 0.7195) sensitive samples to venetoclax.

Co-targeting CDK4/6 and BRD4 promotes senescence and ferroptosis sensitivity in cancer

Project description:Cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors are approved for breast cancer treatment and show activity against other malignancies, including KRAS-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the clinical efficacy of CDK4/6 inhibitors is limited due to frequent drug resistance and their largely cytostatic effects. Through a genome-wide cDNA screen, we identified that bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) overexpression conferred resistance to the CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib in KRAS-mutant NSCLC cells. Inhibition of BRD4, either by RNA interference or small-molecule inhibitors, synergized with palbociclib to induce senescence in NSCLC cells and tumors, and the combination prolonged survival in a KRAS-mutant NSCLC mouse model. Mechanistically, BRD4-inhibition enhanced cell cycle arrest and reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, both of which are necessary for senescence induction; this in turn elevated GPX4, a peroxidase that suppresses ROS-triggered ferroptosis. Consequently, GPX4 inhibitor treatment selectively induced ferroptotic cell death in the senescent cancer cells, resulting in tumor regression. Co-targeting CDK4/6 and BRD4 also promoted senescence and ferroptosis vulnerability in pancreatic and breast cancer cells. Together, these findings reveal therapeutic vulnerabilities and effective combinations to enhance the clinical utility of CDK4/6 inhibitors.

Acsl4 Determines Ferroptosis Sensitivity by Shaping Cellular Lipid Composition

Project description:Ferroptosis is a form of regulated necrotic cell death controlled by glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4). At present, mechanisms that could predict sensitivity and/or resistance and that may be exploited to modulate this form of cell death are needed. We applied two independent approaches, a genome-wide CRISPR-based genetic screen and microarray analysis of ferroptosis-resistant cell lines to uncover acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (Acsl4) as an essential component for ferroptosis execution.

Canagliflozin regulates ferroptosis to ameliorate heart failure in rats with preserved ejection fraction

Project description:Chronic heart failure (CHF), with whether reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) or preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), is the end-stage of various cardiovascular diseases and severely affects the patients’ lifespan. There has been no effective drugs to improve clinical outcomes for a long time. Sine the recent years, as a hypoglycemic drug, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) has aroused great attention due to it’s cardiovascular benefits. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear, particularly regarding ferroptosis, a newly defined mechanism of iron-dependent non-apoptotic cell death in heart failure (HF). Here, we discovered and demonstrated that ferroptosis was a key mechanism in rat model of high-salt diet-induced HF, characterized by iron overloading and lipid peroxidation, which was blocked by canagliflozin administration. These findings highlight that targeting ferroptosis serves as a cardioprotective strategy for HF prevention and canagliflozin might display cardiovascular benefits through ferroptosis mitigation.
