Project description:Despite intensive therapy, children with high-risk neuroblastoma are at risk of treatment failure. We applied a multi-omic system approach to evaluate metabolic vulnerabilities in human neuroblastoma. We combined metabolomics, CRISPR screening and transcriptomic data across >700 solid tumor cell lines and identified dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH), a critical enzyme in pyrimidine synthesis, as a potential treatment target. Of note, DHODH inhibition is currently under clinical investigation in patients with hematologic malignancies. In neuroblastoma, DHODH expression was identified as an independent risk factor for aggressive disease, and high DHODH levels correlated to worse overall and event-free survival. A subset of tumors with the highest DHODH expression was associated with a dismal prognosis, with a 5-year survival of <10%. In xenograft and transgenic neuroblastoma mouse models treated with the DHODH inhibitor brequinar, tumor growth was dramatically reduced, and survival was extended. Furthermore, brequinar treatment was shown to reduce the expression of MYC targets in three different neuroblastoma models in vivo. A combination of brequinar and temozolomide was curative in the majority of transgenic TH-MYCN neuroblastoma mice, indicating a highly active clinical combination therapy. Overall, DHODH inhibition combined with temozolomide has therapeutic potential in neuroblastoma and we propose this combination for clinical testing.

Project description:The aim of this study is to determine the clinical relevance of telomerase activation versus ALT as biomarkers in pre-treatment neuroblastoma, and to assess the potential value of telomerase as a therapeutic target. Therefore, the genomic status of TERT and MYCN was assessed in 457 pretreatment neuroblastomas by fluorescence-in-situ-hybridization. ALT was examined in 273/457 tumors by detection of ALT-associated promyelocytic leukemia nuclear bodies, and TERT expression was determined by 4x44k microarrays in 223 of these. The presence of activated telomerase, i.e., TERT rearrangements, MYCN amplification, or high TERT expression without these alterations, was associated with poorest overall survival, and was an independent prognostic marker in multivariable analyses.

Project description:The mitochondrial respiratory chain assembles into higher order complexes termed supercomplexes (SCs) under certain physiological or metabolic stimuli. A small molecule screen developed by the lab identified DHODH inhibitors as potent activators of SC assembly in cancer cells. To investigate the proteomic regulation of SCs under nucleotide deficiency, we treated U2OS cells for 48 hours with Brequinar (500 nM). Proteomic analysis highlighted strong signatures of respiratory chain subunit abundance and peroxisomal-derived ether phospholipid synthesis enzymes. Bypassing DHODH inhibition through uridine supplementation prevented these alterations. These findings establish a coordinated cellular response to reduced nucleotide pools that stimulates ether phospholipid synthesis and respiratory chain supra-assembly.

Project description:Neuroblastoma is an embryonal tumor which originates from neural crest progenitor cells that fail to differentiate along their predefined route to sympathetic neurons or sympatho-adrenergic adrenal cells. It is the most common extracranial tumor of childhood and accounts for 15% of all childhood cancer deaths. Especially patients suffering from high grade or relapsed neuroblastoma have poor outcome in spite of aggressive treatment regimens including autologous stem cell transplantation. Those patients are in urgent need of additional effective therapies which demands the development of targeted approaches. Dihydroorotatedehydrogenase (DHODH) is the fourth enzyme of the pyrimidine synthesis pathway which oxidizes dihydroorotate to orotate. In recent past it became a potential drug target for cancer treatment because of its keyrole in processing essential pyrimidine nucleotides. On the basis of the existing data, functional inhibition of DHODH is considered to be promising therapeutic option for several tumor entities like advanced colorectal, breast or lung-cancers. Leflunomide is an established drug in treatment of the autoimmune diseases rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis. In the liver Leflunomide becomes converted to its active metabolite called Teriflunomide, which inhibits the activity of DHODH directly. In recent times Leflunomide is also used for therapy against the Cytomegalovirus and the BK virus. Also for Melanoma was shown recently a decreased growth rate due to Leflunomide treatment in a zebrafish and a mouse model. As Melanoma is a malignant tumor of the skin, which derives also from neural crest progenitor cells, a coherent investigation of effictivity of Leflunomide in neuroblastoma celllines showed first promising results. The aim of our study was to reanalyse the effectivity of Leflunomide in Neuroblastoma and to shed further light in its biological mode of action. Three+B52 biological samples of the human neuroblastoma cell line IMR32 were treated with DMSO or Teriflunomide [118 ￂﾵM]

Project description:PTC299 was identified as an inhibitor of VEGFA mRNA translation in a phenotypic screen and evaluated in the clinic for treatment of solid tumors. To guide precision cancer treatment, we performed extensive biological characterization of the activity of PTC299 and demonstrated that inhibition of VEGF production and cell proliferation by PTC299 is linked to a decrease in uridine nucleotides by targeting dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH), a rate limiting enzyme for de novo pyrimidine nucleotide synthesis. Unlike previously reported DHODH inhibitors that were identified using in vitro enzyme assays, PTC299 is a more potent inhibitor of DHODH in isolated mitochondria suggesting that mitochondrial membrane lipid engagement in the DHODH conformation in situ is required for its optimal activity. PTC299 has broad and potent activity against hematological cancer cells in preclinical models, reflecting a reduced pyrimidine nucleotide salvage pathway in leukemia cells. Archived serum samples from patients treated with PTC299 demonstrated increased levels of dihydroorotate, the substrate of DHODH, indicating target engagement in patients. PTC299 has advantages over previously reported DHODH inhibitors, including greater potency, good oral bioavailability and lack of off-target kinase inhibition and myelosuppression, and thus may be useful for the targeted treatment of hematologic malignancies.
