Project description:Epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) are effective in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients harboring EGFR mutations. However, due to the acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs, even third generation Osimertinib, the patients suffer poor prognosis. The resistance mechanisms are still not fully understood. Here, we demonstrate that increased expression of MUSASHI-2 (MSI2), an RNA binding protein, is novel mechanisms for resistance to EGFR-TKIs. We found that after long-exposure of gefitinib, the first generation EGFR-TKI, lung cancer cells harboring the EGFR-TKI-sensitive mutations became resistant to not only gefitinib but also Osimertinib. Although other mutations in EGFR were not found, expression levels of Nanog, a stemness core protein, and activities of aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) were increased, suggesting that cancer stem-like properties were increased. Transcriptome analysis revealed that MSI2 was among the top list of the stemness-related genes upregulated in the EGFR-TKI-resistant cells. Knockdown of MSI2 reduced cancer stem-like properties, including expression levels of Nanog a core stemness factor. We demonstrate that knockdown of MSI2 restored sensitivity to Osimertinib or gefitinib in the EGFR-TKI-resistant cells to the similar levels of the parental cells in vitro. RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay revealed that antibodies against MSI2 bound to Nanog mRNA, suggesting that MSI2 increases Nanog expression by binding to Nanog mRNA. Moreover, overexpression of MSI2 or Nanog conferred resistance to Osimertinib or gefitinib in parental cells. Finally, knockdown of MSI2 greatly increased sensitivity to Osimertinib in vivo. Collectively, our findings provide proof-of-principle that targeting MSI2-Nanog axis in combination with EGFR-TKIs would effectively prevent emergence of acquired resistance.

Project description:Osimertinib, as a third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI), has been approved as a first-line therapy in advanced non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with EGFR-activating or T790M resistance mutations. However, the efficacy of osimertinib is limited due to acquired resistance. In order to search for the mechanism of resistance to osimertinib, we screened on significantly upregulated genes encoding protein kinases in osimertinib-resistant NSCLC cells via RNA-sequence.In summary, our data elucidate the alterations in gene expression within lung cancer cells before and after resistance to osimertinib, aiding in the analysis and identification of key molecules influencing osimertinib resistance.

Project description:Epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) are effective in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring EGFR mutations. However, due to acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs, even patients on third-generation osimertinib have a poor prognosis. Resistance mechanisms are still not fully understood. Here, we demonstrate that the increased expression of MUSASHI-2 (MSI2), an RNA-binding protein, is a novel mechanism for resistance to EGFR-TKIs. We found that after a long-term exposure to gefitinib, the first-generation EGFR-TKI lung cancer cells harboring the EGFR-TKI-sensitive mutations became resistant to both gefitinib and osimertinib. Although other mutations in EGFR were not found, expression levels of Nanog, a stemness core protein, and activities of aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) were increased, suggesting that cancer stem-like properties were increased. Transcriptome analysis revealed that MSI2 was among the stemness-related genes highly upregulated in EGFR-TKI-resistant cells. Knockdown of MSI2 reduced cancer stem-like properties, including the expression levels of Nanog, a core stemness factor. We demonstrated that knockdown of MSI2 restored sensitivity to osimertinib or gefitinib in EGFR-TKI-resistant cells to levels similar to those of parental cells in vitro. An RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay revealed that antibodies against MSI2 were bound to Nanog mRNA, suggesting that MSI2 increases Nanog expression by binding to Nanog mRNA. Moreover, overexpression of MSI2 or Nanog conferred resistance to osimertinib or gefitinib in parental cells. Finally, MSI2 knockdown greatly increased the sensitivity to osimertinib in vivo.

Project description:Third-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs), including osimertinib, an irreversible EGFR-TKI, are important treatments for non-small cell lung cancer with EGFR-TKI sensitizing or EGFR T790M resistance mutations. Whilst patients treated with osimertinib show clinical benefit, disease progression and drug resistance are common. Emergence of de novo acquired resistance from a drug tolerant persister (DTP) cell population is one mechanism proposed to explain progression on osimertinib and other targeted cancer therapies. Here we profiled osimertinib DTPs using RNA-seq, ChIP-seq, and ATAC-seq to characterize the features of these cells and performed drug screens to identify therapeutic opportunities.

Project description:Analysis of testis-specific over-expression of Musashi-1 and Musashi-2 at gene expression level. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that testis-specific over-expression of Musashi-1/Musashi-2 would result in differential gene expression profiles from the Wildtype control. Results provide important information of the genes affected by Musashi-2 overexpression during spermatogenesis.

Project description:Osimertinib, a third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is a highly effective and valuable treatment option for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with EGFR mutations, like T790M. However, acquired resistance ultimately limits its clinical application. In this study, we constructed H1975/OSI cell lines and utilized potentially complementary transcriptomic and proteomic techniques, which may provide insight into the intricately complex molecular mechanisms, to reveal potential therapeutic targets associated with Osimertinib resistance. Uni-omics and multi-omics analyses were conducted on the transcriptomic and proteomic (4D label-free) expression profiles, which involved differential expression analysis, GO functional annotation and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis, correlation analysis of transcription factors, PPI network and Cytoscape analysis. We highlighted multiple signaling pathways and eleven hub-genes, including NOP56, DDX21, PDCD11, CCNB1, TOP21, KPNA2, DDX5, EFTUD2, BRCA1, LMNB1 and HIF1A, that may be the key to overcoming resistance. Further validation of these targets and molecules in preclinical and clinical studies could lead to the development of new and more effective treatment options for H1975-resistant patients.
