Project description:Cancer genome sequencing has uncovered substantial complexity in the mutational landscape of tumors. Given this complexity, experimental approaches are necessary to establish the impact of combinations of genetic alterations on tumor biology and to uncover genotype-dependent effects on drug sensitivity. In lung adenocarcinoma, EGFR mutations co-occur with many putative tumor suppressor gene alterations, however the extent to which these alterations contribute to tumor growth and their response to therapy in vivo has not been explored experimentally. By integrating a novel mouse model of oncogenic EGFR-driven Trp53-deficient lung adenocarcinoma with multiplexed CRISPR–Cas9-mediated genome editing and tumor barcode sequencing, we quantified the effects of inactivation of ten putative tumor suppressor genes. Inactivation of Apc, Rb1, or Rbm10 most strongly promoted tumor growth. Unexpectedly, inactivation of Lkb1 or Setd2 – which were the strongest drivers of tumor growth in an oncogenic Kras-driven model – reduced EGFR-driven tumors growth. These results were consistent with the relative frequency of these tumor suppressor gene alterations in human EGFR and KRAS-driven lung adenocarcinomas. Furthermore, Keap1 inactivation reduced the sensitivity of tumors to osimertinib in the EGFRL858R;p53flox/flox model. Importantly, in human EGFR/TP53 mutant lung adenocarcinomas, mutations in the KEAP1 pathway correlated with decreased time on tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment. Our study highlights how genetic alterations can have dramatically different biological consequences depending on the oncogenic context and that the fitness landscape can shift upon drug treatment.

Project description:In lung adenocarcinoma, oncogenic EGFR mutations co-occur with many tumor suppressor gene alterations; however, the extent to which these contribute to tumor growth and response to therapy in vivo remains largely unknown. By quantifying the effects of inactivating 10 putative tumor suppressor genes in a mouse model of EGFR-driven Trp53-deficient lung adenocarcinoma, we found that Apc, Rb1, or Rbm10 inactivation strongly promoted tumor growth. Unexpectedly, inactivation of Lkb1 or Setd2-the strongest drivers of growth in a KRAS-driven model-reduced EGFR-driven tumor growth. These results are consistent with mutational frequencies in human EGFR- and KRAS-driven lung adenocarcinomas. Furthermore, KEAP1 inactivation reduced the sensitivity of EGFR-driven tumors to the EGFR inhibitor osimertinib, and mutations in genes in the KEAP1 pathway were associated with decreased time on tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment in patients. Our study highlights how the impact of genetic alterations differs across oncogenic contexts and that the fitness landscape shifts upon treatment. SIGNIFICANCE: By modeling complex genotypes in vivo, this study reveals key tumor suppressors that constrain the growth of EGFR-mutant tumors. Furthermore, we uncovered that KEAP1 inactivation reduces the sensitivity of these tumors to tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Thus, our approach identifies genotypes of biological and therapeutic importance in this disease.This article is highlighted in the In This Issue feature, p. 1601.

Project description:To determine the roles of oncogenic EGFR signaling in gliomagenesis and tumor maintenance, we generated a novel glioma mouse model driven by inducible expression of a mutant EGFR (EGFR*). Genetic suppression of EGFR* induction led to significant tumor regression and prolonged survival. But in spite of the initial response, the tumors relapsed invariably and propagated independent of EGFR*. We used microarrys to directly compare geen expression of control and relapse tumors and identified gene sets specifically activated in relapse tumors. Control and relasped glioma samples upon mutant EGFR extinction were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:Patients with oncogene driven tumors are currently treated with targeted therapeutics such as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors. The inhibited oncogenic pathway often interacts with other signaling pathways and alters predicted therapeutic response. Genomic data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) demonstrates pervasive molecular alterations to EGFR, MAPK, and PI3K signaling in previously untreated tumors. Therefore, this study uses bioinformatics algorithms to infer the complex pathway interactions that result from EGFR inhibitor use in cancer cells that contain these these common EGFR network genetic alterations. To do this, we modified the HaCaT keratinocyte cell line model of premalignancy to simulate cancer cells with constitutive activation of EGFR, HRAS, and PI3K in a controlled genetic background. We then measured gene expression after treating modified HaCaT cells with three EGFR targeted agents (gefitinib, afatinib, and cetuximab) for 24 hours.

Project description:The Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) has been studied extensively due to its critical role in cellular signaling and association with disease. Previous models have elucidated interactions between EGFR and downstream adaptor proteins, or showed phenotypes affected by EGFR. However, the link between EGFR phosphorylation and phenotypic outcome is still poorly understood. Here, we employed a suite of isogenic cells lines expressing site-specific mutations at each of the EGFR C-terminal phosphorylation sites to interrogate their role in signaling network and cell biological response to stimulation. Our results demonstrate the resilience of the EGFR network, which was largely similar even in the context of multiple Y-to-F mutations in the EGFR C-terminal tail, while also revealing nodes in the network that have not previously been linked to EGFR signaling. Our data-driven model highlights signaling network nodes associated with distinct EGF-driven cell responses, including migration, proliferation, and receptor trafficking. Application of this same approach to less studied RTKs should provide a plethora of novel associations that should lead to a much better understanding of these signaling networks.

Project description:Hepsin, a type II transmembrane serine protease, is commonly overexpressed in prostate and breast cancer. The hepsin protein is stabilized by the Ras-MAPK pathway, and downstream, this protease regulates the degradation of extracellular matrix components and activates growth factor pathways, such as hepatocyte growth factor and transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) pathway. However, how exactly active hepsin promotes cell proliferation machinery to sustain tumor growth is not fully understood. Here, we show that genetic deletion of Hpn in a WAP-Myc model of aggressive MYC-driven breast cancer inhibits tumor growth in the primary syngrafted sites and the growth of disseminated tumors in the lungs. The suppression of tumor growth upon loss of hepsin was accompanied by downregulation of TGFβ and EGFR signaling together with a reduction in EGFR protein levels. We further demonstrate in 3D cultures of patient-derived breast cancer explants that neutralizing antibodies and small-molecule inhibitors of hepsin can be used to mitigate the hepsin-induced TGFβ signaling and reduce EGFR protein levels.The study demonstrates a role for hepsin as a regulator of cell proliferation and tumor growth through TGFβ and EGFR pathways, warranting consideration of hepsin as a potential indirect upstream target for therapeutic inhibition of TGFβ and EGFR pathways in cancer.
