    Abstract: In 2016, we identified a direct interaction between RAS and Argonaute 2 (AGO2), a key mediator of RNA-mediated gene silencing that is required for KRAS-driven oncogenesis using pancreatic and lung cancer cell line models. Recently, we employed the genetically engineered mouse model of pancreatic cancer to define the effects of conditional loss of AGO2 in KRASG12D driven pancreatic cancer. Genetic ablation of AGO2 did not interfere with development of the normal pancreas or KRASG12D-driven early precursor pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN) lesions. However, AGO2 loss prevents progression from early to late PanIN lesions, development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), and metastatic progression. This results in a dramatic increase in survival of KRASG12D mutant mice deficient in AGO2 expression. Using validated pan-RAS and AGO2 antibodies for immunofluorescence (IF) and proximity ligation assay (PLA), we observed increased RAS and AGO2 co-localization at the plasma membrane in mouse and human pancreatic tissues associated with PDAC progression. AGO2 ablation permits PanIN initiation driven by the EGFR-RAS axis; however rather than progressing to PDAC, these lesions undergo profound oncogene-induced senescence (OIS). Since PanIN development requires EGFR and is not AGO2 dependent, we probed the effects of EGF stimulation in cell lines expressing wild-type and mutant forms of KRAS (using co-IP and PLA analyses). In wild-type RAS expressing cells, grown in media containing serum, RAS-AGO2 co-localization was limited to the intracellular regions of the cells, which dramatically increased and shifted to the plasma membrane under conditions of stress (serum starvation). Interestingly, EGF stimulation disrupted this membrane RAS-AGO2 interaction and restored it to intracellular basal levels. Using phosphorylation-deficient AGO2 mutants, we demonstrate that the disruption of wild type-RAS-AGO2 interaction is due to AGO2Y393 phosphorylation, a target of EGFR. Interestingly, the mutant KRAS-AGO2 interaction is not subject to EGFR activation, suggesting that although both the wild-type and mutant RAS bind AGO2, they are differentially regulated through growth factor receptor activation. Taken together, our study supports a biphasic model of pancreatic cancer development: an AGO2-independent early phase of PanIN formation reliant on EGFR and wild-type RAS signaling, and an AGO2-dependent phase wherein the mutant KRAS-AGO2 interaction is critical for PDAC progression. In the lung cancer mouse model, we also observed a similar dependence of AGO2 in KRAS-driven lung adenocarcinoma. Along with related abstracts detailing the mechanisms of OIS mediated by AGO2 (Ronald Siebenaler) and evidence of direct interaction between oncogenic KRAS and AGO2 with an affinity of 200nM (Jessica Waninger), we present our latest studies related to the KRAS-AGO2 interaction.

    Abstract: The RAS gene family is among the most commonly mutated genes within cancer, but little progress has been made in successfully targeting RAS mutations. Targeting binding partners of mutated RAS presents as a promising alternative therapeutic strategy. With the goal of uncovering novel interactors of RAS, we recently identified Argonaute 2 (AGO2) of the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) as a novel partner of the KRAS through its Switch II domain. In order to assess the role of AGO2 in KRASG12D driven disease, we developed a mouse model of pancreatic cancer with conditional loss of AGO2. While AGO2 knockout did not prevent development of early precursor pancreatic intraepithelial (PanIN) lesions, AGO2 null lesions displayed increased activation of the EGFR-RAS signaling axis during PanIN development that failed to progress to late stage PanINs, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), and metastatic disease. This resulted in a dramatic increase in the survival of mice with AGO2 ablation. Unlike the PanINs in AGO2 sufficient mice, the early PanIN lesions with AGO2 ablation showed staining for the senescence associated beta galactosidase activity, suggesting that AGO2 loss induces oncogene induced senescence. To extend these observations and explore the role of AGO2 interaction with mutant forms of HRAS and NRAS proteins, we performed co-IP of AGO2 with RAS proteins using isoform specific antibodies. Both HRAS and NRAS bound AGO2 in T24 cells (HRASG12V) and SK-MEL-2 cells (NRASQ61H), respectively. In T24 cells, AGO2 knockdown led to the senescent phenotype and was accompanied with changes in the EGFR-RAS signaling axis, similar to that observed in the PanINs of the mice with AGO2 loss. In this cell line model, AGO2 loss reduced mutant HRAS expression and increased wild type RAS activity. These signaling effects were also consistent with our observation that AGO2 loss increased RAS activation in the mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF) model. Together with our previous work with mutant KRAS dependent cells, these data suggest that 1) AGO2-wild type RAS binding prevents RAS activation and 2) mutant RAS-AGO2 association regulates oncogenic RAS levels in cell line models. Studies on the mouse model and the close proximity of RAS and AGO2 with EGFR also furthered our understanding of the RAS-AGO2 interaction. Using a variety of cell line models, we observed that EGFR-mediated phosphorylation of AGO2Y393 disrupts the interaction between WT RAS and AGO2. However, the mutant KRAS-AGO2 interaction was recalcitrant to EGFR regulation. This provides the first instance of a nucleotide dependent association of RAS and AGO2 and sheds light on the dynamic nature of the RAS-AGO2 interaction. Citation Format: Ronald F.

    Abstract: Introduction: Recent studies have demonstrated a clear association between smoking and the incidence of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC); however, the effect of cigarette smoke in the activation of stem cell (SC) or cancer stem cell (CSC) genes and their involvement in the initiation and progression of PDAC have not yet been studied. It is well known that CSCs are responsible for the drug resistance and aggressiveness of the disease including PDAC. In this study, we investigated the effects of smoking on enrichment of SC/CSCs in pancreatic normal and ductal adenocarcinoma cells, and we also examined whether smoking can activate NF-kB signaling, which is in part leads to enrichment of CSC and induction of CSC markers in PDAC. Methods: Cigarette smoke extract (CSE) was prepared, and HPNE (Human pancreatic nestin positive cells) and Capan-1 pancreatic cancer (PC) cells were treated with CSE for up to ∼15 weeks. Side population (SP) were analyzed by Hoechst staining using Flow-cytomer, and various CSC markers such as PD2 (a stem cell maintenance marker), CD44, ALDH-1, SOX-9 (a multipotent SC marker) and Oct-3/4 (a pluripotent marker), and NF-kB signaling molecules were analyzed by western blotting. ALDH1+ cells, CD44+CD24+ CSCs and G0/G1 phase low cycling quiescent cells were analyzed by flow cytometer. An in-vitro sphere culture was also performed to further confirm the smoke induced CSC properties. Smoke exposed pancreatic tissues excised from unfloxed littermate control (LSL-K-Ras G12D) pancreatic tissue sections were immunostained for SOX-9 using immunohistochemistry (IHC), and for SOX9 and CD44 using immunofluorescence. Results: Our results showed increased SC/CSCs and more number of spheres by CSE treated cells as compared to their untreated controls and displayed elevated protein expressions of SC/CSC markers. We also observed an elevated CD44+CD24+ CSCs, increased ALDH1+ cells and increased G0/G1 low cycling quiescent cell population in CSE treated cells as compared to untreated controls. In addition, increased immunohistochemical staining for SOX9 and increased immunofluorescent signal for SOX-9 and CD44 were observed in smoke exposed animal tissues indicating that smoking may transform SOX-9+ multipotent SCs into SOX9+CD44+ CSCs. We also analyzed the expression levels of NF-kB signaling molecules in CSE treated HPNE and Capan-1 cells. As compared to their untreated controls, CSE treated cells showed elevated protein expression levels of phospho AKT, phospho RelA (SOX-9 promoter binding subunit of NF-kB complex) and phospho IKKα (a kinase that phosphorylates IKBα, an inhibitor of RelA) suggesting that smoking activates NF-kB signaling. Conclusion: Our results illustrate that smoking enriches SC/CSCs populations in normal pancreatic cells as well as in pancreatic cancer cells, and activates SOX9 through NF-kB signaling in PDAC.

    Abstract: Non-clear cell renal cell carcinomas (non-ccRCCs) represent ~15-20% RCCs cases comprising nearly 20 different disease subtypes and a wide spectrum of clinical behavior from benign to highly aggressive course. Clinically, metastatic non-ccRCC patients, regardless of subtypes with distinct genomic aberrations, are all treated with the same standard of care therapies, underscoring the need for precision therapeutic strategies. Diagnostic challenges also exist as benign and malignant entities often display overlapping histomorphologies that current diagnostic cytokeratin markers cannot resolve. Therefore, identification of more reliable diagnostic and prognostic non-ccRCC biomarkers remains an unmet need in this field. As part of the Clinical Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC), we performed integrative analysis of multi-omics data including genomic next generation sequencing-based whole exome, whole genome, RNAseq, snRNAseq and mass spectrometry-based proteomics, post translational modifications (glycosylation and phosphorylation) and metabolomic profiles generated by CPTAC. The composition of the kidney tumor cohort (n=151) included 103 ccRCC, 15 oncocytomas, 13 papillary RCC (PRCC), 11 other rare tumors and 8 unclassified RCCs. Our multi-omic analysis revealed both unique and shared molecular features of RCC subtypes. We characterized proteogenomic, PTM and glycoproteome impact of genome instability (GI), a feature that is associated with poor prognosis in both ccRCC and non-ccRCC and affects 10-15% of cases. These analyses identified new prognostic signatures, outlier targetable kinase expression patterns, kinase-substrate relationships and differential protein glycosylation events. Glycoproteome analysis also revealed variation in cell-type specific marker expression among RCC subtypes such as FUT8 (core-fucosyltransferase) associated protein glycosylation in PRCC. Integrative analysis of snRNA-seq data predicted diverse tumor cell-of-origin and stratified RCC subtype specific proteogenomic signatures. Differential expression analysis revealed several novel diagnostic makers including MAPRE3, GPNMB, PIGR, SOSTDC1. These biomarkers were validated by IHC and their addition to existing panels results in improved diagnostic specificity. Metabolic characterization revealed RCC subtype-specific differences and increased oncometabolite SAICAR in oncocytomas that may have functional significance. The valuable proteogenomic data resource we generated contains several rare tumor types that are hard to obtain for proteogenomic characterization at the scale described here, and will certainly aid in future pan-RCC studies.

    Abstract: KRAS mutations drive over 30% of all cancers and 90% of pancreatic cancer. To investigate additional potential modulators of RAS-mediated oncogenesis, we previously performed a screen for direct interactors of RAS in a panel of cancer cell lines and identified a direct interaction between KRAS and Argonaute 2 (AGO2), independent of KRAS mutation status. To define the effects of conditional loss of AGO2 in KRASG12D-driven cancer, we employed a genetically engineered mouse model of pancreatic cancer (KC model). Genetic ablation of AGO2 did not interfere with development of the normal pancreas or KRASG12D-driven early precursor pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN) lesions. However, AGO2 loss prevented progression from early to late PanIN lesions, development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), and metastatic progression. This resulted in increased of KRASG12D mutant mice deficient in AGO2 expression. Mechanistically, lack of PanIN to PDAC progression was due to oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) through activation of EGFR-wild type RASWT-phospho ERK signaling including reduced baseline autophagy in mice with AGO2 loss. Interestingly, in the KPC model simultaneous expression of oncogenic KRAS and loss of a p53 allele abrogates this phenotype, suggesting that p53 deficiency overcomes the OIS check by AGO2. However, in both mouse and human PDAC, AGO2 expression increased with disease progression and, interestingly, was predominant at the plasma membrane, where it co-localized with RAS. These in vivo analyses support a biphasic model of pancreatic cancer development: an AGO2-independent early phase of PanIN formation reliant on EGFR and WT RAS signaling, and an AGO2-dependent phase wherein the mutant KRAS-AGO2 interaction is critical for PDAC progression. In the KRASG12D driven lung cancer mouse model, we see a similar requirement for AGO2 for diseases progression–but not for initiation–despite p53 loss indicating a context dependent requirement for AGO2. Given that AGO2 binds both the mutant and the WT forms of KRAS, we also investigated the role of RASWT-AGO2 interaction. Analysis using purified proteins showed that AGO2 competes with SOS1 to limit RASWT activation. AGO2 had no effect on the intrinsic GTPase activity of RAS or NF1-mediated GAP activity. In line with this data, AGO2 null mouse embryonic fibroblasts showed increased RAS activity and activation of MAPK/PI3K pathways. Further, using cell line models, we also showed that phosphorylation of AGO2Y393 by EGFR disrupted the interaction of RASWT with AGO2 at the membrane, but did not affect the interaction of mutant KRAS with AGO2. On the other hand, ARS-1620, a G12C-specific inhibitor, disrupted the KRASG12C-AGO2 interaction specifically in cells harboring this mutant, demonstrating that the oncogenic KRAS-AGO2 interaction can be pharmacologically targeted. Altogether, our findings reveal that the AGO2 interaction regulates RASWT and is essential for mutant KRAS driven oncogenesis. Citation Format: Sunita Shankar, Jean Ching-Yi Tien, Ronald F.
