Project description:Pancreatic cancer is an aggressive disease with a poor prognosis for which current standard chemotherapeutic treatment options offer little survival benefit. In recent years, receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK)s have garnered interest as therapeutic targets to augment or replace standard chemotherapeutic therapies because of their high expression levels in various cancers and their ability to promote cell growth, migration, and survival. Met and Ron, which are homologous RTKs activated by the ligands hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and macrophage stimulating protein (MSP), respectively, are over-activated in many of the least treatable cancers. In pancreatic adenocarcinoma, Met expression is linked to poor patient survival and Ron expression is generally higher in tumor samples relative to normal tissue, although its prognostic significance in pancreatic cancer remains unclear. Despite the structural homology between Met and Ron, studies that have directly compared the functional outcomes of these systems in any context are limited. To address this, we sought to determine if the HGF/Met and MSP/Ron systems produce overlapping or divergent contributions towards a malignant phenotype by performing a characterization of MSP and HGF driven signaling, behavioral, and transcriptomic responses in pancreatic cancer cells in vitro. We found HGF and MSP both encouraged cell migration and activated the MAPK/Erk pathway both at the transcript and protein level. HGF uniquely increased proliferation in addition to regulating a wider variety of transcripts compared to MSP. Although HGF and MSP produced a differing breadth of responses, overlapping pro-cancer signaling, behavioral, and transcriptional effects suggest dual inhibition of the MSP/Ron and HGF/Met systems in pancreatic cancer may provide a more complete anti-cancer effect compared to individually targeting either system.

Project description:Metastasis is the major cause of death in cancer patients, yet the genetic/epigenetic programs that drive metastasis are poorly understood. Here, we report a novel epigenetic reprogramming pathway that is required for breast cancer metastasis. Concerted differential DNA methylation is initiated by activation of the RON receptor tyrosine kinase by its ligand, macrophage stimulating protein (MSP). Through PI3K signaling, RON/MSP promotes expression of the G:T mismatch-specific thymine glycosylase MBD4. RON/MSP and MBD4-dependent aberrant DNA methylation results in misregulation of a specific set of genes. Knockdown of MBD4 reverses methylation at these specific loci, and blocks metastasis. We also show that the MBD4 glycosylase catalytic residue is required for RON/MSP-driven metastasis. Analysis of human breast cancers using a set of specific genes that are regulated by RON/MSP through MBD4-directed aberrant DNA methylation revealed that this epigenetic program is significantly associated with poor clinical outcome. Furthermore, inhibition of Ron kinase activity with a new pharmacological agent prevents activation of the RON/MBD4 pathway and blocks metastasis of patient-derived breast tumor grafts in vivo.

To determine the molecular mechanisms by which RON/MSP drives breast cancer metastasis, we performed microarray gene expression profiling of MCF7, MCF7-RON/MSP and MCF7-RON/MSP-shMBD4 cells.

Project description:Ron (Mst1r), the receptor for MSP is highly expressed in colonic epithelial cells, especially in immature cell types, such as stem cells, TA cells and immature enterocytes. To identify genes that can be induced by MSP in mouse colonic epithelial cells, we performed bulk RNA-seq using day2 colon spheroids.

Project description:Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) are known to overexpress a variety of receptor tyrosine kinases, such as the HGF receptor Met. Like other malignancies, there is a mutual interaction between the tumor cells and surrounding tissues and cells. We hypothesized that activation of HGF/Met signaling in HNSCC might influence glucose metabolism and therefore substantially changes the tumor microenvironment. To determine the effect of HGF, we used three established HNSCC cell lines and flow cytometry, western blot and RNA sequencing. Dynamic changes in glucose metabolism were measured real-time by an Extracellular flux analyzer. As expected, the cell lines exhibited different levels of Met and responded differently to HGF stimulation. As confirmed by RNA sequencing, the level of Met expression is associated with the number of upregulated HGF-dependent genes. Overall, Met stimulation by HGF leads to increased glycolysis, presumably mediated by higher expression of three key enzymes of glycolysis. These effects appear to be stronger in Methigh expressing HNSCC cells. Collectively our data supports the hypothesized role of HGF/Met signaling in metabolic reprogramming of HNSCC.

Project description:Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) signaling through its receptor Met has been implicated in hepatocellular carcinoma tumorigenesis and progression. Met interaction with integrins is shown to modulate the downstream signaling to Akt and ERK (extracellular-regulated kinase). In this study, we developed a mechanistically detailed systems biology model of HGF/Met signaling pathway that incorporated specific interactions with integrins to investigate the efficacy of integrin-binding peptide, AXT050, as monotherapy and in combination with other therapeutics targeting this pathway. Here we report that the modeled dynamics of the response to AXT050 revealed that receptor trafficking is sufficient to explain the effect of Met-integrin interactions on HGF signaling. Furthermore, the model predicted patient-specific synergy and antagonism of efficacy and potency for combination of AXT050 with sorafenib, cabozantinib, and rilotumumab. Overall, the model provides a valuable framework for studying the efficacy of drugs targeting receptor tyrosine kinase interaction with integrins, and identification of synergistic drug combinations for the patients.
