    Abstract: Distant metastasis is the most common cause of treatment failure and mortality in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients. Thus, it is important to understand the mechanism of NPC metastasis and identify reliable prognostic factors. In this study, we investigated the prognostic value of unconjugated bilirubin (UCB), which was previously considered a byproduct of heme catabolism, in NPC patients and examined the effects of UCB on NPC metastasis. The receiver operating characteristic analysis–generated UCB cutoff point for DMFS was 9.7 μmol/L. We found that higher UCB levels were significantly associated with favorable distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS, 93.3% vs. 84.2%, P & lt; 0.001) in NPC patients and was an independent predictor for DMFS (HR, 0.416; 95% confidence interval, 0.280–0.618; P & lt; 0.001). We next found that UCB treatment impaired the invasion capability of NPC cells and potently inhibited lung metastasis of NPC cells in nude mice. Further investigation showed that UCB inhibited reactive oxygen species production, which is involved in the repression of ERK1/2 activation and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) expression. Moreover, lower levels of ERK1/2 phosphorylation and MMP-2 expression were observed in the NPC lung metastases of nude mice administered UCB. Taken together, our results indicate that UCB is a significantly favorable factor for DMFS in NPC patients and may play an important role in NPC chemoprevention.

    Abstract: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) represents a set of heterogeneous myeloid malignancies hallmarked by mutations in epigenetic modifiers, transcription factors, and kinases that can cause epigenetic reshaping. It is unclear to what extent AML mutations drive chromatin 3D structure alteration and contribute to myeloid transformation. We first performed Hi-C and whole-genome sequencing in 25 AML patient samples and seven healthy donor samples, and identified recurrent alterations of A/B compartments, TADs, and chromatin loops that are unique to different subtypes. To investigate how altered chromatin organization contributes to transcriptional misregulation, we performed RNA-Seq, ATAC-Seq and CUT & ag for CTCF, H3K27ac, and H3K27me3 in the same AML samples. We identified extensive and recurrent AML-specific promoter-enhancer and promoter-repressor loops. We performed both CRISPR deletion and interference experiments and validated two repressor loops that downregulated cancer related genes IKZF2 and RTTN. Furthermore, by using our recently developed algorithm, we identified structural variation-induced enhancer-hijacking and repressor-hijacking events in AML samples. We further demonstrated the role of hijacked enhancers in AML cell growth by CRISPR screening, and the role of hijacked repressors by CRISPR de-repression. We performed whole-genome bisulfite sequencing in 20 AML and normal samples, and showed the delicate relationship between DNA methylation, CTCF binding and 3D genome structure. Finally, by treating the AML cells with the DNA hypomethylating agent and performing triple knockdown of DNMT1/3A/3B, we demonstrated the impact of altered DNA methylation on gene expression and 3D genome organization. Overall this study provides an invaluable resource for leukemia studies and also highlighted the role of repressor-loops and hijacked cis-elements in gene regulation and human diseases.

    Abstract: Purpose: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide. In China, chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains the major risk factor for HCC. In this study, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) among Chinese populations to identify novel genetic loci contributing to susceptibility to HBV-related HCC. Experimental Design: GWAS scan is performed in a collection of 205 HBV-related HCC trios (each trio includes an affected proband and his/her both parents), and 355 chronic HBV carriers with HCC (cases) and 360 chronic HBV carriers without HCC (controls), followed by two rounds of replication studies totally consisting of 3,796 cases and 2,544 controls. Results: We identified a novel association signal within the CDK14 gene at 7q21.13 (index rs10272859, OR = 1.28, P = 9.46 × 10−10). Furthermore, we observed that the at-risk rs10272859[G] allele was significantly associated with higher mRNA expression levels of CDK14 in liver tissues. Chromosome conformation capture assays in liver cells confirmed that a physical interaction exists between the promoter region of CDK14 and the risk-associated SNPs in strong linkage disequilibrium with the index rs10272859 at 7q21.13. This index rs10272859 also showed significant association with the survival of HCC patients. Conclusions: Our findings highlight a novel locus at 7q21.13 conferring both susceptibility and prognosis to HBV-related HCC, and suggest the CDK14 gene to be the functional target of the 7q21.13 locus.

    Abstract: Purpose: Liver metastasis is the major and direct cause of death in patients with uveal melanoma (UM). There is no effective therapy for patients with metastatic UM. Improved treatments of hepatic metastatic patients with UM were urgently needed. Inspired by readily detectable key components in the neddylation pathway in UM cells, we aimed at exploring whether neddylation pathway was a therapeutic target for liver metastatic UM. Experimental Design: Expression of key proteins in the neddylation pathway in UM was detected by Western blotting, real-time quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR), and immunohistochemical staining. Cellular proliferation, apoptosis, cell cycle, migration, and cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) properties were examined upon treatment with MLN4924, a potent and selective NAE inhibitor. Antitumor activity and frequency of CSCs were determined by using a NOD-SCID mouse xenograft model. Liver metastasis was evaluated by use of a NOD-scid-IL2Rg−/− mouse model. Results: NAE1 expression was readily detectable in UM. Inhibition of the neddylation pathway by MLN4924 repressed the CSCs properties in UM (capacities of tumorsphere formation and serially replating, aldehyde dehydrogenase-positive cells, and frequency of CSC) through Slug protein degradation. MLN4924 treatment disturbed the paracrine secretion of NF-κB-mediated VEGF-C and its dependent angiogenesis. The inhibitory effect of neddylation blockade on proliferation, which was confirmed by xenografted UM tumor in NOD-SCID mice, was involved in activation of ATM-Chk1-Cdc25C DNA damage response, and G2–M phase arrest. Neddylation inhibition profoundly inhibited hepatic metastasis in UM. Conclusions: Our studies validate the neddylation pathway as a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of patients with hepatic metastasis of UM. Clin Cancer Res; 24(15); 3741–54. ©2017 AACR.

    Abstract: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is a common malignancy in Southern China. After radiotherapy and chemotherapy, a considerable proportion of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma suffered tumor relapse and metastasis. Cancer stem cells (CSC) have been shown with resistance against therapies and thus considered as the initiator of recurrence and metastasis in tumors, where the antiapoptotic property of CSCs play an important role. Smac/DIABLO is an inverse regulator for the inhibitors of apoptosis protein family (IAP), which have been involved in apoptosis. Here, the effects of Smac mimetics on the CSCs of nasopharyngeal carcinoma were studied both in vitro and in vivo, using two clones of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line CNE2 as models. We found that one of the clones, S18, had CSC-like properties and IAPs were overexpressed. The combination of Smac mimetics and TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) can reduce the percentage of SP cells and inhibit the colony- and sphere-forming abilities of S18 cells, indicating their ability to attenuate the CSCs. Moreover, in a nasopharyngeal carcinoma xenograft model, the administration of Smac mimetics in combination with TRAIL also led to the elimination of nasopharyngeal carcinoma stem cells. Furthermore, the Smac mimetics in combination with TRAIL induced the degradation of cIAP1 and XIAP and thus induced apoptosis in vitro and in vivo. Taken together, our data show that Smac mimetics exerted an antitumor effect on nasopharyngeal carcinoma cancer stem cells, and this combination treatment should be considered as a promising strategy for the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

    Abstract: Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α (HNF4α) is a transcription factor that plays a key role in hepatocyte differentiation and the maintenance of hepatic function, but its role in hepatocarcinogenesis has yet to be examined. Here, we report evidence of a suppressor role for HNF4α in liver cancer. HNF4α expression was progressively decreased in the diethylinitrosamine-induced rat model of liver carcinogenesis. In human liver tissues, HNF4α expression was decreased in cirrhotic tissue and further decreased in hepatocarcinoma relative to healthy tissue. Notably, an inverse correlation existed with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Enforced expression of HNF4α attenuated hepatocyte EMT during hepatocarcinogenesis, alleviated hepatic fibrosis, and blocked hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) occurrence. In parallel, stem cell marker gene expression was inhibited along with cancer stem/progenitor cell generation. Further, enforced expression of HNF4α inhibited activation of β-catenin, which is closely associated with EMT and hepatocarcinogenesis. Taken together, our results suggest that the inhibitory effect of HNF4α on HCC development might be attributed to suppression of hepatocyte EMT and cancer stem cell generation through an inhibition of β-catenin signaling pathways. More generally, our findings broaden knowledge on the biological significance of HNF4α in HCC development, and they imply novel strategies for HCC prevention through the manipulation of differentiation-determining transcription factors in various types of carcinomas.

    Abstract: Purpose: The “gate-keeper” mutations T674I platelet—derived growth factor receptor α (PDGFRα) in hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) and T315I Bcr-Abl in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) are resistant to imatinib and the second-generation small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI). However, to combat acquired resistance to imatinib, an alternative approach is to decrease the expression of the addicted gene to efficiently kill resistant malignant hematologic cells. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the strategy of shutting down the transcription and expression of FIP1-like-1 (FIP1L1)–PDGFRα and Bcr-Abl with SNS-032, an inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinase 7 (CDK7) and CDK9 in phase I clinical trials. Experimental Design: The effects of SNS-032 on PDGFRα and Bcr-Abl signaling pathways, apoptosis, and cell cycling were analyzed in TKI-resistant cells of HES and CML. The in vivo antitumor activity of SNS-032 was assessed with xenografted BaF3-T674I FIP1L1-PDGFRα and KBM5-T315I Bcr-Abl cells in nude mouse models. Results: SNS-032 inhibited the phosphorylation on Ser5 and Ser2 of RNA polymerase II. SNS-032 decreased both the mRNA and protein levels of FIP1L1-PDGFRα and Bcr-Abl and inhibited the proliferation of malignant cells expressing FIP1L1-PDGFRα or Bcr-Abl. It also decreased the phosphorylation of downstream molecules. It induced apoptosis by triggering both the mitochondrial pathway and the death receptor pathway. Conclusions: This CDK7/9 inhibitor potently inhibits FIP1L1-PDGFRα–positive HES cells and Bcr-Abl–positive CML cells regardless of their sensitivity to imatinib. SNS-032 may have potential in treating hematologic malignancy by abrogating oncogene addiction. Clin Cancer Res; 18(7); 1966–78. ©2012 AACR.

    Abstract: Purpose: French-American-British (FAB) classification of acute leukemia with genetic heterogeneity is important for treatment and prognosis. However, the distinct protein profiles that contribute to the subtypes and facilitate molecular definition of acute leukemia classification are still unclear. Experimental Design: The proteins of leukemic cells from 61 cases of acute leukemia characterized by FAB classification were separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis, and the differentially expressed protein spots were identified by both matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization–time-of-flight–mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) and tandem electrospray ionization MS (ESI-MS/MS). Results: The distinct protein profiles of acute leukemia FAB types or subtypes were successfully explored, including acute myeloid leukemia (AML), its subtypes (M2, M3, and M5) and acute lymphoid leukemia (ALL), which were homogeneous within substantial samples of the respective subgroups but clearly differed from all other subgroups. We found a group of proteins that were highly expressed in M2 and M3, rather than other subtypes. Among them, myeloid-related proteins 8 and 14 were first reported to mark AML differentiation and to differentiate AML from ALL. Heat shock 27 kDa protein 1 and other proteins that are highly expressed in ALL may play important roles in clinically distinguishing AML from ALL. Another set of proteins up-regulated was restricted to granulocytic lineage leukemia. High-level expression of NM23-H1 was found in all but the M3a subtype, with favorable prognosis. Conclusions: These data have implications in delineating the pathways of aberrant gene expression underlying the pathogenesis of acute leukemia and could facilitate molecular definition of FAB classification. The extension of the present analysis to currently less well-defined acute leukemias will identify additional subgroups.

    Abstract: Purpose: Leukemia stem cells (LSC), which are insensitive to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI), are an important source of TKI resistance and disease relapse in chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). Obstacles to eradicating LSCs include limited understanding of the regulation network of LSCs. The current study aimed to examine the interplay between NF-κB and FOXM1/β-catenin, and the effect of its chemical intervention on CML LSCs. Experimental Design: The interplay between NF-κB and FOXM1/β-catenin was analyzed by reciprocal coimmunoprecipitation (co-IP) and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay in CML cells. The effect of disturbing NF-κB and FOXM1/β-catenin by niclosamide on the self-renewal capacity and survival of LSCs was evaluated in vitro in human primary CML CD34+ cells and in vivo in CML mice. Results: Reciprocal co-IP experiments showed physical interaction of p65 and FOXM1. p65 promoted transcription of FOXM1 gene. ChIP assay revealed recruitment of p65 on the promoter of FOXM1 gene. Conversely, FOXM1 and β-catenin positively regulated the nuclear translocation and transcriptional activity of NF-κB in CML cells. Niclosamide disrupted the positive feedback loop between NF-κB and FOXM1/β-catenin, thereby impairing the self-renewal capacity and survival of CML LSCs. Niclosamide decreased the long-term engraftment of human CML LSCs in NOD-SCID IL2Rγ chain-deficient (NOG) mice, and prolonged the survival of CML mice. Conclusions: Interaction of p65 with FOXM1/β-catenin is critical in CML and its disruption by niclosamide eradicates LSCs. These findings may improve the understanding of a self-renewal regulatory mechanism of LSCs and offer a rationale-based approach to eliminate LSCs in CML. Clin Cancer Res; 23(3); 789–803. ©2016 AACR.
