Project description:We investigated which signaling pathways downstream of Gas6/Axl promote the invasive phenotype of liver cancer cells. Thus, we performed phospho-proteomic analysis of MR hepatocytes and those expressing Axl (MR-Axl) in the presence and absence of Gas6. Protein-clustering based on the pattern of phosphorylation across the conditions and samples revealed four clusters: phospho-sites that are upregulated dependent on Axl expression (cluster 1) or Gas6 expression (cluster 2) and phospho-sites that are downregulated dependent on Axl expression (cluster 3) or Gas6 expression (cluster 4). Functional enrichment analysis showed enrichment of protein sets associated with cellular polarity and motility depending on changes in Axl expression and Gas6 activation. Furthermore, we analyzed phospho-proteomic data to estimate the activity of kinases based on kinase-substrate interactions using PhosR. Kinase perturbation analysis indicated mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) as the one with the highest upregulated activity in Gas6-stimulated MR-Axl cells compared to Gas6-stimulated MR cells. Accordingly, we analyzed substrates of mTOR and found that phosphorylation of Akt1 (Ser473) was upregulated in cluster 1 and highly increased in Gas6-stimulated MR-Axl, suggesting that Akt is regulated by Axl.

Project description:AXL is a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) which, together with TYRO3 and MER, belongs to the TAM receptor family. A ligand for AXL is growth arrest specific 6 (GAS6), which is able to bind all three TAMs with the highest affinity for AXL. AXL is overexpressed in a variety of different cancers, which correlates with poor prognosis, metastasis and drug resistance. However, its biology is still not fully understood and data concerning proteins that interact with this receptor are almost completely lacking. To identify mechanisms underlying the role of GAS6-AXL signaling in cancer, we established an AXL interactome using proximity-dependent biotin identification (BioID) assay. Experiments were conducted in HEK293 cells and human glioblastoma LN229 cells, which do not express and express AXL, respectively. The Gene Ontology (GO) analysis of biological processes indicated enrichment of proteins implicated in cell junction organization, axonogenesis, supramolecular fiber organization, angiogenesis and actin-related processes in bot, non-stimulated and GAS6-stimulated samples. Importantly, in samples with activated AXL, proteins implicated in actin-related processes were overrepresented. Consistent with this, we found that GAS6 stimulation triggered actin remodeling manifested by intense membrane ruffling and macropinocytosis. Our study provides comprehensive data about proteins interacting with AXL. Thus, the obtained results will help to understand the biology of the AXL receptor, particularly with respect to its involvement in cancer invasion.

Project description:AXL is activated by its ligand GAS6 and is expressed in triple-negative breast cancer cells. We report that AXL is also detected in HER2+ breast cancer specimens where its expression correlates with poor patients’ survival. Using murine models of HER2+ breast cancer, AXL, but not Gas6, was found essential for metastasis. We determined that AXL is required for intravasation, extravasation and growth at the metastatic site. AXL is expressed in HER2+ cancers displaying EMT signatures and contributes to sustain EMT in murine tumors. Interfering with AXL in patient-derived xenograft impaired TGF-β-induced cell invasion. Lastly, pharmacological inhibition of AXL decreased the metastatic burden of mice developing HER2+ breast cancer. Our data identify AXL as a potential co-therapeutic target during the treatment of HER2+ breast cancers to limit metastasis.

Project description:To better understand the signaling complexity of AXL, a member of the TAM family of receptor tyrosine kinases, we created a physical and functional map of AXL signaling interactions, phosphorylation events, and target-engagement of three AXL tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI). We assessed AXL protein-complexes using BioID, effects of AXL TKI on global phosphoproteins using mass spectrometry, and target engagement of AXL TKI using activity-based protein profiling. BioID identifies AXL-interacting proteins that are mostly involved in cell adhesion/migration. Global phosphoproteomics reveal that AXL inhibition deregulates phosphorylation of peptides involved in phosphatidylinositol-mediated signaling and cell adhesion/migration. Comparison of three AXL inhibitors reveals that TKI RXDX-106 inhibits pAXL, pAKT and migration/invasion of these cells without reducing their viability, while Bemcentinib exerts AXL-independent phenotypic effects. Proteomic characterization of these TKIs reveals that they inhibit diverse targets in addition to AXL, with Bemcentinib having the most off-targets. AXL and EGFR TKI co-treatment did not reverse resistance in cell line models of Erlotinib resistance. However, a unique vulnerability was identified in one persister clone, wherein combination of Bemcentinib and Erlotinib inhibited cell viability and signaling. We also show that AXL is overexpressed in ~30-40% of NSCLC but rarely in SCLC. NSCLC cells have a wide range of AXL protein expression, with basal activation detected rarely. Overall, we evaluate the mechanisms of action of AXL in lung cancer which can be used to establish assays to measure drug targetable active AXL complexes in patient tissues and inform the strategy for targeting its signaling network as an anticancer therapy.

Project description:The crizotinibâresistant ALKF1174L mutation arises de novo in neuroblastoma (NB) and is acquired in ALK translocation-driven cancers, lending impetus to the development of novel ALK inhibitors with different modes of action. The diaminopyrimidine TAE684 and its derivative ceritinib (LDK378), which are structurally distinct from crizotinib, are active against NB cells expressing ALKF1174L. Here we demonstrate acquired resistance to TAE684 and LDK378 in ALKF1174L-driven human NB cells that is linked to overexpression and activation of the AXL tyrosine kinase and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). AXL phosphorylation conferred TAE684 resistance to NB cells through upregulated ERK signaling. Inhibition of AXL partly rescued TAE684 resistance, resensitizing these cells to this compound. AXL activation in resistant cells was mediated through increased expression of the active form of its ligand, GAS6, which also served to stabilize the AXL protein. Although ectopic expression of AXL and TWIST2 individually in TAE684-sensitive parental cells led to the elevated expression of mesenchymal markers and invasive capacity, only AXL overexpression induced resistance to TAE684 as well. TAE684-resistant cells showed greater sensitivity to HSP90 inhibition than did their parental counterparts, with downregulation of AXL and AXL-mediated ERK signaling. Our studies indicate that aberrant AXL signaling and development of an EMT phenotype underlie resistance of ALKF1174L-driven NB cells to TAE684 and its derivatives. We suggest that the combination of ALK and AXL or HSP90 inhibitors be considered to delay the emergence of such resistance. In order to understand the molecular mechanisms driving resistance to ALK inhibition in ALK-mutated neuroblatoma, we established cell line models of resistance to TAE684, an ALK inhibitor, by treating SH-SY5Y cells (bearing the ALKF1174L mutation) with increasing concentration of this compound over time. We then performed an analysis of gene expression changes genome wide using Affymetrix U133 Plus 2 arrays, by comparing the TAE684-sensitive parental SH-SY5Y cells to the TAE684-resistant SH-SY5Y cells (named SY5Y-TR1). For that experiment, we analyzed gene expression variations by comparing the parental SH-SY5Y (control sample) to the resistant SY5Y-TR1 cells. So 2 samples were analyzed, with 3 replicates run for each.

Project description:We sought to determine the effects of Gas6 on Alzheimer’s disease pathology through overexpression of Gas6 using an adeno-associated viral vector in the APP/PS1 model of Alzheimer’s disease. 9 month old male and female APP/PS1 and nontransgenic littermates received bilateral stereotactic hippocampal injections of AAV-Gas6 or AAV-control, an attenuated Gas6 protein that does not bind the Axl receptor. One month after injections, mice performed a battery of behavioral tasks and brains were processed for immunohistochemistry, transcriptional analyses, and flow cytometry.

Project description:Anti-cancer therapies have been limited by emergence of mutations and other adaptations. In bacteria, antibiotics activate the SOS response, which mobilizes error‐prone factors that allow for continuous replication at the cost of mutagenesis. We investigated whether treatment of lung cancer with EGFR inhibitors (EGFRi) similarly engages hypermutators. In cycling drug-tolerant persister (DTP) cells and in EGFRi-treated patients presenting residual disease we observed upregulation of GAS6, while ablation of GAS6’s receptor, AXL, eradicated resistance. Reciprocally, AXL overexpression enhanced DTP survival and accelerated the emergence of T790M, an EGFR mutation typical to resistant cells. Mechanistically, AXL induces low-fidelity DNA polymerases and activates their organizer, RAD18, by promoting neddylation. Metabolomics uncovered another hypermutator, AXL-driven activation of MYC and increased purine synthesis that is unbalanced by pyrimidines. Aligning anti-AXL combination treatments with the transition from DTPs to resistant cells cured patient-derived xenografts. Hence, similar to bacteria, tumors tolerate therapy by engaging pharmacologically targetable endogenous mutators.

Project description:Aortic remodeling is a cause and consequence of hypertension. It increases workload on the heart and enhances arterial pulsatility in the microcirculation. We have shown that excessive endothelial stretch leads to release of Growth Arrest Specific 6 (GAS6), which in turn activates the tyrosine kinase receptor Axl on monocytes, and causes immune activation and inflammation. We hypothesized that GAS6/Axl blockade would reduce renal and vascular inflammation and lessen renal dysfunction in the setting of chronic aortic remodeling. We characterized a model aortic remodeling in mice following a 2-week infusion of angiotensin II (ang II). Aortas demonstrated increased mural collagen and mechanical testing revealed a marked loss of Windkessel function or energy storage that persisted for 6 months following ang II. Renal function studies showed a reduced ability to excrete a volume load, a progressive increase in albuminuria and tubular damage as estimated by Periodic Acid Schiff (PAS) staining. Treatment with the Axl inhibitor R428 beginning 2 months after ang II infusion had minimal effect on aortic remodeling 2 months later, but reduced the infiltration of T cells, g/d T cells and macrophages into the aorta and kidney, and improved renal excretory capacity, reduced albuminuria, and reduced evidence of renal tubular damage. We conclude that brief episodes of hypertension can induce chronic aortic remodeling which in turn associates with a low-grade inflammation of the aorta and kidneys and evidence of renal dysfunction. These events are mediated at least in part by GAS6/Axl signaling and are improved with Axl blockade.
