Project description:Immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs) have markedly improved patient outcome in multiple myeloma (MM); however, resistance to IMiDs commonly underlies relapse of disease. Here we identify and validate that TNF receptor associated factor protein family TRAF2 KD/KO in MM cells mediates IMiDs resistance via activation of non-canonical NF-kB and MEK-ERK signaling. Within MM bone marrow (BM) stromal cell supernatants, TNF-a induces proteasomal degradation of TRAF2, non-canonical NF-kB, and downstream ERK signaling in MM cells, whereas IL-6 directly triggers ERK activation. RNA sequencing of MM patient samples shows nearly universal ERK pathway activation at relapse on lenalidomide maintenance therapy, confirming its clinical relevance. Combination MEK inhibitor treatment restores IMiDs sensitivity of TRAF2 KO cells both in vitro and in vivo using an inducible TRAF2 KD MM xenograft model. Our studies provide the framework for clinical trials of MEK inhibitors to overcome IMiDs resistance in the BM microenvironment and improve patient outcome in MM.

Project description:About 50% of human malignancies exhibit unregulated signalling through the Ras-ERK1/2 (ERK) pathway, as a consequence of activating mutations in members of Ras and Raf families. However, the quest for alternative Ras-ERK pathway-directed therapies is desirable. Upon phosphorylation ERK dimerize. We had previously demonstrated that dimerization is essential for ERK extranuclear but not nuclear signaling. Furthermore, by molecular biology approaches, we showed that specifically inhibiting ERK extranuclear component, by impeding ERK dimerization, is sufficient for curtailing tumor progression. Here, we have identified a small molecule inhibitor for ERK dimerization in vitro and in vivo that, without affecting ERK phosphorylation, prevents tumorigenesis driven by Ras-ERK pathway oncogenes, both in cellular and animal models. Importantly, this compound is unaffected by resistance-acquisition processes that hamper “classical” Ras-ERK pathway inhibitors. Thus, ERK dimerization inhibitors provide the proof of principle for two novel concepts in cancer therapy: 1) The blockade of sublocalization-specific sub-signals, rather than total signals, as a means of effectively counteracting oncogenic Ras-ERK signaling. 2) Targeting regulatory protein-protein interactions such as dimerization, rather than catalytic activities, within a signaling route, as an approach for producing effective anti-tumoral agents. Strategies aimed at preventing aberrant flux through this route remain an attractive option for therapeutic intervention in cancer. In this respect, drugs inhibiting the kinase activities of BRaf and MEK have yielded promising results. A375p cells treated with10 μM of either DEL22379, SCH772984 or DMSO as a control for two hours. mRNA from A375p cells was extrated using RNeasy mini kit (Qiagen, Germany) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Cells were previously treated with10 μM of either DEL22379, SCH772984 or DMSO as a control for two hours.

Project description:Genome-wide circular RNA expression patterns reflect resistance to immunomodulatory drugs in multiple myeloma cells
| PRJNA680045 | ENA
Project description:Immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs), such as lenalidomide and pomalidomide, may induce significant remissions in multiple myeloma (MM) patients, but relapses are frequently observed and the underlying molecular mechanisms for this are not completely understood. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) constitute an emerging class of non-coding RNAs with important roles in cancer. Here, we profiled genome-wide expression patterns of circRNAs in IMiD sensitive MM cells and their resistant counterparts as well as in IMiD resistant cells treated with specific epigenetic drugs alone or in combination. We found that genome-wide circRNA expression patterns reflect IMiD-sensitivity and ciRS-7 (also known as CDR1as) was the most downregulated circRNA upon acquired resistance. The depletion of ciRS-7 correlated with increased methylation levels of the promoter CpG island of its host gene, LINC00632. Expression of LINC00632 and ciRS-7 was partly restored by treatment with a combination of an EZH2 inhibitor (EPZ-6438) and a DNA methyl transferase inhibitor (5-azacytidine), which also restores the IMiD sensitivity of the cells. However, knockdown of ciRS-7 did not affect IMiD sensitivity and we found that ciRS-7 also becomes epigenetically silenced after prolonged cell culture without drug-exposure. In conclusion, we found that genome-wide circRNA expression patterns reflect IMiD sensitivity in an in vitro model of acquired resistance.

Project description:Aberrant activation of the ERK signaling pathway triggers a protective anticancer response characterized by stable growth arrest and activation of tumor suppressors called cellular senescence. Pancreatic adenocarcinomas (PDAC) often possess mutations in K-Ras that activate the ERK pathway. Pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia of low degree display high levels of phospho-ERK consistent with senescence acting as a barrier for malignant transformation. However, advanced lesions downregulate phospho-ERK levels circumventing the senescence barrier. Restoring ERK hyperactivation in PDAC using an activated allele of the kinase RAF, leads to ERK-dependent growth arrest with senescence biomarkers. Phosphoproteomics analysis of ERK-dependent senescence in PDAC revealed a decrease in several nucleolar phosphoproteins suggesting that high levels of ERK lead to senescence via nucleolar stress. Consistent with this explanation, ERK-dependent senescent cells displayed intranucleolar foci containing RNA polymerase I. Combining ribosome biogenesis inhibitors with ERK hyperactivation reinforced the senescence response of PDAC cells. The drug cocktail FOLFIRINOX, currently the best treatment for PDAC, also triggered ERK hyperactivation and nucleolar stress characterized by nucleolar foci, solid amyloid aggregates and a decrease in 5.8S and 28S rRNAs. We thus suggest that drugs targeting ribosome biogenesis can improve the senescence anticancer response in pancreatic cancer.
