Project description:The bipolar androgen therapy (BAT) to treat prostate cancer includes cycles of supraphysiological androgen levels (SAL) under continuous androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). We showed previously that SAL induces cellular senescence in androgen-sensitive PCa cells and ex vivo in PCa tumor samples from patients that underwent radical prostatectomy. Here, we show that SAL induces cellular senescence in both, castration sensitive (CSPC) LNCaP and castration resistant PCa (CRPC) C4-2 cells through the cell cycle inhibitor p15. Treatment with the Akt inhibitor (Akti) potently inhibited SAL-induced expression of p15 and cellular senescence in both cell lines. Proximity ligation assays (PLA) combined with high-resolution laser-scanning microscopy indicate that SAL promotes interaction of endogenous androgen receptor (AR) with endogenous Akt in cytoplasm as well as in nucleus after 72 hours hormone treatment. This suggests that the AR interacts with Akt also in a long-term manner. Transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) comparing the SAL-induced transcriptomes of LNCaP with C4-2 cells as well as of Akti treated cells revealed landscapes for cell senescence. Interestingly, one of the identified genes is the lncRNASAT1. SAL treatment of native patient tumor samples ex vivo results in upregulation of lncRNASAT1. The lncRNASAT1 is down-regulated in PCa tumor tissues compared to non-tumor tissues of same patients indicating a tumor suppressive function. Knockdown indicates that the lncRNASAT1 is crucial for SAL-induced cancer cell senescence and regulates LNCaP cell proliferation being an upstream factor for pAkt and for p15. Further, knockdown of lncRNASAT1 inhibits LNCaP cell proliferation by low androgen levels but enhances proliferation by SAL. This suggests that lncRNASAT1 serves as a tumor suppressor with SAL. Interestingly, immunoprecipitation of AR detected lncRNASAT1 as an AR interacting partner that regulates AR target gene expression. Thus, we identified a novel pathway of androgen signaling as the AR- lncRNASAT1- Akt- p15INK4b- axis to mediate SAL-induced cellular senescence.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are major regulators of gene expression and cell fate. The INK4 locus encodes the tumour suppressor proteins p15INK4b, p16INK4a and p14ARF required for cell cycle arrest and whose expression increases during senescence. ANRIL is a ncRNA antisense to the p15 gene. In proliferative cells, ANRIL prevents senescence by repressing INK4 genes through the recruitment of Polycomb-group proteins. In models of replicative and RASval12 oncogene-induced senescence (OIS), the expression of ANRIL and Polycomb proteins decreases, thus allowing INK4 derepression. Here, we found in a model of RAF1 OIS that ANRIL expression rather increases, due in particular to an increased stability. This led us to search for circular ANRIL isoforms, as circular RNAs are rather stable species. We found that the expression of two circular ANRIL increases in several OIS models (RAF1, MEK1 and BRAF). In proliferative cells, they repress p15 expression, while in RAF1 OIS, they promote full induction of p15, p16 and p14ARF expression. Further analysis of one of these circular ANRIL shows that it interacts with Polycomb proteins and decreases EZH2 Polycomb protein localization and H3K27me3 at the p15 and p16 promoters, respectively. We propose that changes in the ratio between Polycomb proteins and circular ANRIL isoforms allow these isoforms to switch from repressors of p15 gene to activators of all INK4 genes in RAF1 OIS. Our data reveal that regulation of ANRIL expression depends on the senescence inducer and underline the importance of circular ANRIL in the regulation of INK4 gene expression and senescence.

Project description:The androgen receptor (AR) is a therapeutic target of prostate cancer (PCa). Targeted AR therapy commonly uses androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and AR antagonists to reduce androgen levels and inhibit tumor growth. Surprisingly, treatment with supraphysiological androgen level (SAL) can also inhibit the growth of PCa. SAL (R1881) was shown to induce cellular senescence in PCa. Knockdown of BHLHE40 in C4-2 and LNCaP cell lines indicates that BHLHE40 mediates SAL-induced cellular senescence as a possible tumor suppressive pathway. The RNA-seq from BHLHE40 knocked down C4-2 cells confirmed that BHLHE40 regulates cellular senescence and associated pathways. Interestingly, a large overlap of differentially expressed gene sets was identified between BHLHE40 regulated transcriptome and the SAL-changed transcriptome leading to four classes of up-and downregulated BHLHE40 transcriptome landscapes overlapping with that of AR. Further RNA-seq analyses revealed that the tumor suppressive cyclin G2 (CCNG2) emerged as a novel downstream target of BHLHE40. Knockdown of CCNG2 suggests that it mediates SAL-induced cellular senescence providing evidence of a novel pathway by the AR-BHLHE40-CCNG2 axis to mediate androgen-induced cellular senescence as a novel tumor suppressive pathway in PCa cells.

Project description:Both the PI3K/AKT/mTOR and androgen receptor (AR) signaling pathways play essential roles in prostate cancer. We compared the impact of PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway inhibitors with different selectivity profiles on in vitro cell proliferation and apoptosis induction, and observed the strongest effects in androgen-sensitive prostate cancer models. Combination treatment with the AR inhibitor darolutamide led to enhanced apoptosis in these cell lines, with most pronounced effects of the pan-PI3K inhibitor copanlisib. Transcriptomic analysis performed in the androgen-sensitive VCaP cell line revealed that gene expression was more affected by the co-treatment with darolutamide and copanlisib, compared to single agents. A comprehensive reversal of the androgen response and the mTORC1 transcriptional programs was observed. The combination treatment also markedly induced DNA damage. An in vivo efficacy study performed using LuCaP 35, an androgen-sensitive patient-derived prostate cancer model, indicated superior efficacy after combined treatment with copanlisib and darolutamide. Immunohistochemistry analysis of treated tumors furthermore showed increased apoptosis. Altogether these data demonstrate that blocking the PI3K/AKT/mTOR and AR pathways with potent inhibitors has superior anti-tumor efficacy and induces apoptosis in androgen-sensitive prostate cancer models.

Project description:Mutations in both RAS and the PTEN/PIK3CA/AKT signaling module are found in the same human tumors. PIK3CA and AKT are downstream effectors of RAS, and the selective advantage conferred by mutation of two genes in the same pathway is unclear. Based on a comparative molecular analysis, we show that activated PIK3CA/AKT is a weaker inducer of senescence than is activated RAS. More-over, concurrent activation of RAS and PIK3CA/AKT impairs RAS-induced senescence. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression after transduction of AKT and RAS IMR90 cells were transfected with Control, AKT and RAS retrovirus containing medium in 4 replicates. Fibroblasts were drug selected and kept in drug for duration of experiments.

Project description:Activation of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) program is a critical mechanism for initiating cancer progression and migration. Colorectal cancers (CRCs) contain many genetic and epigenetic alterations that can contribute to EMT. Mutations activating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway are observed in >40% of patients with CRC contributing to increased invasion and metastasis. Little is known about how oncogenic signaling pathways such as PI3K/AKT synergize with chromatin modifiers to activate the EMT program. Lysine Specific Demethylase 1 (LSD1) is a chromatin-modifying enzyme that is overexpressed in colorectal cancer (CRC) and enhances cell migration. In this study we determine that LSD1 expression is significantly elevated in CRC patients with mutation of the catalytic subunit of PI3K, PIK3CA, compared to CRC patients with WT PIK3CA. LSD1 enhances activation of the AKT kinase in CRC cells through a non-catalytic mechanism, acting as a scaffolding protein for the transcription-repressing CoREST complex. Additionally, growth of PIK3CA mutant CRC cells is uniquely dependent on LSD1. Knockdown or CRISPR knockout of LSD1 blocks AKT-mediated stabilization of the EMT-promoting transcription factor Snail and effectively blocks AKT-mediated EMT and migration. Overall we uniquely demonstrate that LSD1 mediates AKT activation in response to growth factors and oxidative stress, and LSD1-regulated AKT activity promotes EMT-like characteristics in a subset of PIK3CA mutant cells.
