Project description:The cell line-derived xenografts and patient derived xenografts have limited use in cancer immunotherapy evaluation because an immune compromised host is required for xenotransplantation. Syngeneic mouse models are derived by transplanting established mouse cell lines or tumor tissues to strain matched mouse hosts, which are better suited to study the interplay between immune and tumor cells. We investigated the differences as well as similarities of a panel of ten mouse syngeneic models to features of human tumors by proteomics, which will provide valuable information to assist experimental biologists in model selection.

Project description:Neuroblastoma RAS (NRAS) is an oncogene that is deregulated and highly mutated in cancers including melanomas and acute myeloid leukemias. Constitutively activated NRAS induces the MAPK and AKT signaling pathways and leads to uncontrolled proliferation and cell growth, making it an attractive target for small molecule inhibition. Like all RAS-family proteins, it has proven difficult to identify small molecules that directly inhibit the protein. An alternative approach would involve targeting the NRAS mRNA. The 5′ untranslated region (5′ UTR) of the NRAS mRNA is reported to contain a G-quadruplex (G4) that regulates the translation of NRAS mRNA. Stabilizing the G4 structure in NRAS by small molecules could reduce NRAS protein expression in cancer cells by impacting translation. Here we report a novel class of small molecule that binds to the G4 structure located in the 5′ UTR of the NRAS mRNA. We used a small molecule microarray (SMM) screen to identify molecules that selectively bind to the NRAS-G4. Biophysical studies demonstrated that compound 18 binds reversibly to the NRAS-G4 structure with submicromolar affinity. A Luciferase based reporter assay indicated that 18 inhibits the translation of NRAS via stabilizing the NRAS-G4 in vitro but showed only moderate effects on the NRAS levels in cellulo. Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends (RACE), RT-PCR analysis on 14 different NRAS-expressing cell lines, coupled with analysis of publicly available CAGE seq experiments, revealed that predominant NRAS transcript does not possess the G4 structure. Further analysis of published rG4 and G4 sequencing data indicated the presence of G4 structure in the promoter region of NRAS gene (DNA) but not in the mRNA. Thus, although the NRAS transcript lacks a G4 in many cell lines the broader concept of targeting folded regions within 5’ UTRs to control translation remains a highly attractive strategy.

Project description:Purpose: Emerging evidence in the field of RAS biology is beginning to illustrate that RAS mutations are functionally distinct. To elucidate functional differences between NRAS mutants we performed RNA-sequencing on mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) expressing different NRAS codon 61 variants from the endogenous gene locus Methods: MEFs were isolated from Tyr::CRE-ERT2 LSL-Nras mouse models containing different Nras variants in the endogeous gene locus. NRAS expression was induced in MEFs using an Adenoviral Cre delivery system. RNA was isolated from MEFs six days post-NRAS induction and submitted for RNA-sequencing Results: Differential expression and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) between NRAS variants revealed enrichment of transcripts associated with cellular proliferation between all mutant Nras alleles versus wild-type Nras. Further, MEFs expressing NRAS mutants capable of driving melanoma formation were enriched for transcripts associated with RAS-MYC signaling axis. Conclusion: While all NRAS mutants are capable of enhancing cellular proliferation versus wild-type NRAS, the melanomagenic potential of these mutants correlates with the ability to enhance activation of the RAS-MYC signaling axis

Project description:To study the role of NRAS mutations in cell proliferation and self-renewal in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the human AML cell line, THP1, was modified to replace its naturally occurring heterozygous NRAS-G12D mutation with a doxycycline(dox)-inducible heterozygous NRAS-G12V mutation. The endogenous copies of the NRAS-G12D allele were deleted using CRISPR/Cas9 after a dox-inducible, CRISPR resistant, NRAS-G12V transgene was introduced into the THP1 cell line. The resulting cell line was named B11. RNA-seq data confirmed that endogenous NRAS G12D was successfully replaced by dox-inducible exogenous NRAS G12V in the B11 cell line. As expected, depletion of dox induced G1 cell cycle arrest. Interestingly, the B11 cells experienced ten-times higher expression of NRAS induced G2/S-phase cell cycle arrest. Forty-nine genes were identified as signaling responsible genes associated with high expression of NRAS.

Project description:Targeted therapies have the potential to revolutionize cancer care by providing personalized treatment strategies that are less toxic and more effective but it is clear that for most solid tumors suppression of a single target is not sufficient to prevent development of resistance. A powerful method to identify mechanisms of resistance and targets for combination therapy is to use an in vivo genetic approach. We have developed a novel retroviral gene delivery mouse model of melanoma that permits control of gene expression post-delivery using the tetracycline (tet)-regulated system. In this study we used this melanoma model to select for resistant tumors following genetic inhibition of mutant NRAS. Analysis of tumors that became resistant to NRAS suppression revealed that the most common mechanism of resistance was overexpression of the Met receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK). Importantly, inhibition of Met overcomes NRAS resistance in this context. Analysis of NRAS mutant human melanoma cells revealed that inhibition of MEK is also associated with adaptive RTK signaling. Furthermore, co-inhibition of RTK signaling and MEK overcomes acquired MEK inhibitor resistance in NRAS mutant melanoma. These data suggest that combined inhibition of RTK and MEK signaling is a rational therapeutic strategy in mutant NRAS driven melanoma. Reversible NRAS Q61R expression in the melanocytes of DCT-TVA;Ink4a/Arf lox/lox mice (FVB/n) was achieved by transducing the animals with Tet-off and TRE-NRASQ61R-IRES-Cre avian leukosis viruses. After tumor initiation, the expression of NRAS Q61R was turned off by administrating doxycycline. Despite initial regression, tumors in 40% of mice developed resistance to NRAS Q61R withdraw. Seven resistant tumors and one control tumor where NRAS Q61R expression was not interrupted were subjected to genome-wide gene expression profiling.

Project description:Activating mutations in NRAS account for 15-20% of melanoma, yet effective anti-NRAS therapies are still lacking. In this study, we unveil the casein kinase 1δ (CK1δ) as an uncharacterized regulator of oncogenic NRAS mutations, specifically Q61R and Q61K, which are the most prevalent NRAS mutations in melanoma. The genetic ablation or pharmacological inhibition of CK1δ markedly destabilizes NRAS mutants and suppresses their oncogenic functions. Moreover, we identify USP46 as a bona fide deubiquitinase of NRAS mutants. Mechanistically, CK1δ directly phosphorylates USP46 and activates its deubiquitinase activity towards NRAS mutants, thus promoting oncogenic NRAS-driven melanocyte malignant transformation and melanoma progression in vitro and in vivo. Our findings underscore the significance of the CK1δ-USP46 axis in stabilizing oncogenic NRAS mutants and provide preclinical evidence that targeting this axis holds promise as a therapeutic strategy for human melanoma harboring NRAS mutations.

Project description:NRAS and BRAF are the most commonly found genetic alterations in melanoma. It has been demonstrated that NRAS and BRAF oncogenic alterations, even affecting the same signaling pathway, represent two different clinical and biochemical entities, showing different signaling patterns and biological responses. Metabolic reprogramming is considered a novel target to control cancer; however, it is mostly unknown how the NRAS oncogene contributes to this cancer hallmark. We have showed that NRAS-mutated melanomas harbor specific metabolic alterations that render cells sensitive to RAS pathway inhibition upon metabolic stress. Gene expression analysis has confirmed different transcriptional profiles of NRAS- and BRAF- mutant cells both, under basal conditions and in response to glucose starvation. Moreover, analysis of glucose metabolism-related genes expression regulation revealed PFKFB2 as an important player linking glycolysis and RAS pathway activation.
