    Abstract: A major goal of cancer research is to understand how mutations distributed across diverse genes affect common cellular systems, including multiprotein complexes and assemblies. Two challenges—how to comprehensively map such systems and how to identify which are under mutational selection—have hindered this understanding. Accordingly, we created a comprehensive map of cancer protein systems integrating both new and published multi-omic interaction data at multiple scales of analysis. We then developed a unified statistical model that pinpoints 395 specific systems under mutational selection across 13 cancer types. This map, called NeST (Nested Systems in Tumors), incorporates canonical processes and notable discoveries, including a PIK3CA-actomyosin complex that inhibits phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase signaling and recurrent mutations in collagen complexes that promote tumor proliferation. These systems can be used as clinical biomarkers and implicate a total of 548 genes in cancer evolution and progression. This work shows how disparate tumor mutations converge on protein assemblies at different scales.

    Abstract: We outline a framework for elucidating tumor genetic complexity through multidimensional protein-protein interaction maps and apply it to enhancing our understanding of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. This network uncovers 771 interactions from cancer and noncancerous cell states, including WT and mutant protein isoforms. Prioritization of cancer-enriched interactions reveals a previously unidentified association of the fibroblast growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase 3 with Daple, a guanine-nucleotide exchange factor, resulting in activation of Gαi- and p21-activated protein kinase 1/2 to promote cancer cell migration. Additionally, we observe mutation-enriched interactions between the human epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (HER3) receptor tyrosine kinase and PIK3CA (the alpha catalytic subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase) that can inform the response to HER3 inhibition in vivo. We anticipate that the application of this framework will be valuable for translating genetic alterations into a molecular and clinical understanding of the underlying biology of many disease areas.

    Abstract: The contribution of stem and progenitor cell dysfunction and depletion in normal aging remains incompletely understood. We explored this concept in the Klotho mouse model of accelerated aging. Analysis of various tissues and organs from young Klotho mice revealed a decrease in stem cell number and an increase in progenitor cell senescence. Because klotho is a secreted protein, we postulated that klotho might interact with other soluble mediators of stem cells. We found that klotho bound to various Wnt family members. In a cell culture model, the Wnt-klotho interaction resulted in the suppression of Wnt biological activity. Tissues and organs from klotho-deficient animals showed evidence of increased Wnt signaling, and ectopic expression of klotho antagonized the activity of endogenous and exogenous Wnt. Both in vitro and in vivo, continuous Wnt exposure triggered accelerated cellular senescence. Thus, klotho appears to be a secreted Wnt antagonist and Wnt proteins have an unexpected role in mammalian aging.

    Somatic 9p24.1 alterations in HPV – head and neck squamous cancer dictate immune microenvironment and anti-PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor activity

    Abstract: Somatic copy number alterations (SCNAs), generally ( 1 ) losses containing interferons and interferon-pathway genes, many on chromosome 9p, predict immune-cold, immune checkpoint therapy (ICT)-resistant tumors ( 2 ); however, genomic regions mediating these effects are unclear and probably tissue specific. Previously, 9p21.3 loss was found to be an early genetic driver of human papillomavirus–negative (HPV – ) head and neck squamous cancer (HNSC), associated with an immune-cold tumor microenvironment (TME) signal, and recent evidence suggested that this TME-cold phenotype was greatly enhanced with 9p21 deletion size, notably encompassing band 9p24.1 ( 3 ). Here, we report multi-omic, -threshold and continuous-variable dissection of 9p21 and 9p24 loci (including depth and degree of somatic alteration of each band at each locus, and each gene at each band) and TME of four HPV – HNSC cohorts. Preferential 9p24 deletion, CD8 T-cell immune-cold associations were observed, driven by 9p24.1 loss, and in turn by an essential telomeric regulatory gene element, JAK2-CD274 . Surprisingly, same genetic region gains were immune hot. Related 9p21-TME analyses were less evident. Inherent 9p-band-level influences on anti-PD1 ICT survival rates, coincident with TME patterns, were also observed. At a 9p24.1 whole-transcriptome expression threshold of 60th percentile, ICT survival rate exceeded that of lower expression percentiles and of chemotherapy; below this transcript threshold, ICT survival was inferior to chemotherapy, the latter unaffected by 9p24.1 expression level ( P- values 〈 0.01, including in a PD-L1 immunohistochemistry-positive patient subgroup). Whole-exome analyses of 10 solid-tumor types suggest that these 9p-related ICT findings could be relevant to squamous cancers, in which 9p24.1 gain/immune-hot associations exist.

    Expression of an active Gα s mutant in skeletal stem cells is sufficient and necessary for fibrous dysplasia initiation and maintenance

    Abstract: Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a disease caused by postzygotic activating mutations of GNAS (R201C and R201H) that encode the α-subunit of the G s stimulatory protein. FD is characterized by the development of areas of abnormal fibroosseous tissue in the bones, resulting in skeletal deformities, fractures, and pain. Despite the well-defined genetic alterations underlying FD, whether GNAS activation is sufficient for FD initiation and the molecular and cellular consequences of GNAS mutations remains largely unresolved, and there are no currently available targeted therapeutic options for FD. Here, we have developed a conditional tetracycline (Tet)-inducible animal model expressing the Gα s R201C in the skeletal stem cell (SSC) lineage (Tet–Gα s R201C / Prrx1 -Cre/LSL-rtTA-IRES-GFP mice), which develops typical FD bone lesions in both embryos and adult mice in less than 2 weeks following doxycycline (Dox) administration. Conditional Gα s R201C expression promoted PKA activation and proliferation of SSCs along the osteogenic lineage but halted their differentiation to mature osteoblasts. Rather, as is seen clinically, areas of woven bone admixed with fibrous tissue were formed. Gα s R201C caused the concomitant expression of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (Rankl) that led to marked osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption. Gα s R201C expression ablation by Dox withdrawal resulted in FD-like lesion regression, supporting the rationale for Gα s -targeted drugs to attempt FD cure. This model, which develops FD-like lesions that can form rapidly and revert on cessation of mutant Gα s expression, provides an opportunity to identify the molecular mechanism underlying FD initiation and progression and accelerate the development of new treatment options.

    p35/Cyclin-Dependent Kinase 5 Phosphorylation of Ras Guanine Nucleotide Releasing Factor 2 (RasGRF2) Mediates Rac-Dependent Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase 1/2 Activity, Altering RasGRF2 and Microtubule-Associated Protein 1b Distribution in Neurons

    Abstract: Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5) is a proline-directed kinase the activity of which is dependent on association with its neuron-specific activators, p35 and p39. Cdk5 activity is critical for the proper formation of cortical structures and lamination during development. In the adult nervous system, Cdk5 function is implicated in cellular adhesion, dopamine signaling, neurotransmitter release, and synaptic activity. In addition, Cdk5 is also involved in “cross-talk” with other signal transduction pathways. To further examine its involvement in cross-talk with other pathways, we identified proteins that interacted with p35 using the yeast two-hybrid system. We report here that p35 associates with Ras guanine nucleotide releasing factor 2 (RasGRF2) in coimmunoprecipitation and colocalization studies using transfected cell lines as well as primary cortical neurons. Additionally, Cdk5 phosphorylates RasGRF2 both in vitro and in vivo , leading to a decrease in Rac–guanidine exchange factor activity and a subsequent reduction in extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 activity. We show that p35/Cdk5 phosphorylates RasGRF2 on serine 737 , which leads to an accumulation of RasGRF2 in the neuronal cell bodies coinciding with an accumulation of microtubule-associated protein 1b. The membrane association of p35 and subsequent localization of Cdk5 activity toward RasGRF2 and Rac provide insights into important cellular signaling processes that occur at the membrane, resulting in downstream effects on signal transduction cascades.

    Abstract: Receptors coupled to heterotrimeric G proteins can effectively stimulate growth promoting pathways in a large variety of cell types, and if persistently activated, these receptors can also behave as dominant-acting oncoproteins. Consistently, activating mutations for G proteins of the Gα s and Gα i2 families were found in human tumors; and members of the Gα q and Gα 12 families are fully transforming when expressed in murine fibroblasts. In an effort aimed to elucidate the molecular events involved in proliferative signaling through heterotrimeric G proteins we have focused recently on gene expression regulation. Using NIH 3T3 fibroblasts expressing m1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors as a model system, we have observed that activation of this transforming G protein-coupled receptors induces the rapid expression of a variety of early responsive genes, including the c- fos protooncogene. One of the c- fos promoter elements, the serum response element (SRE), plays a central regulatory role, and activation of SRE-dependent transcription has been found to be regulated by several proteins, including the serum response factor and the ternary complex factor. With the aid of reporter plasmids for gene expression, we observed here that stimulation of m1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors potently induced SRE-driven reporter gene activity in NIH 3T3 cells. In these cells, only the Gα 12 family of heterotrimeric G protein α subunits strongly induced the SRE, while Gβ 1 γ 2 dimers activated SRE to a more limited extent. Furthermore, our study provides strong evidence that m1, Gα 12 and the small GTP-binding protein RhoA are components of a novel signal transduction pathway that leads to the ternary complex factor-independent transcriptional activation of the SRE and to cellular transformation.

    Abstract: Heterotrimeric G proteins transduce multiple growth-factor-receptor-initiated and intracellular signals that may lead to activation of the mitogen-activated or stress-activated protein kinases. Herein we report on the identification of a novel p53 target gene (A28-RGS14) that is induced in response to genotoxic stress and encodes a novel member of a family of regulators of G protein signaling (RGS) proteins with proposed GTPase-activating protein activity. Overexpression of A28-RGS14p protein inhibits both G i - and G q -coupled growth-factor-receptor-mediated activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway in mammalian cells. Thus, through the induction of A28-RGS14, p53 may regulate cellular sensitivity to growth and/or survival factors acting through G protein-coupled receptor pathways.

    Abstract: The importance of identifying VEGF-independent pathways in pathological angiogenesis is increasingly recognized as a result of the emerging drug resistance to anti-VEGF therapies. PDGF-CC is the third member of the PDGF family discovered after more than two decades of studies on PDGF-AA and PDGF-BB. The biological function of PDGF-CC and the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms remain largely unexplored. Here, using different animal models, we report that PDGF-CC inhibition by neutralizing antibody, shRNA, or genetic deletion suppressed both choroidal and retinal neovascularization. Importantly, we revealed that PDGF-CC targeting acted not only on multiple cell types important for pathological angiogenesis, such as vascular mural and endothelial cells, macrophages, choroidal fibroblasts and retinal pigment epithelial cells, but also on the expression of other important angiogenic genes, such as PDGF-BB and PDGF receptors. At a molecular level, we found that PDGF-CC regulated glycogen synthase kinase (GSK)–3β phosphorylation and expression both in vitro and in vivo. Activation of GSK3β impaired PDGF-CC–induced angiogenesis, and inhibition of GSK3β abolished the antiangiogenic effect of PDGF-CC blockade. Thus, we identified PDGF-CC as an important candidate target gene for antiangiogenic therapy, and PDGF-CC inhibition may be of therapeutic value in treating neovascular diseases.

    Abstract: The tyrosine kinase class of receptors induces mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation through the sequential interaction of the signaling proteins Grb2, Sos, Ras, Raf, and MEK. Receptors coupled to heterotrimeric guanine triphosphate-binding protein (G protein) stimulate MAPK through G β γ subunits, but the subsequent intervening molecules are still poorly defined. Overexpression of phosphoinositide 3-kinase γ (PI3Kγ) in COS-7 cells activated MAPK in a G β γ -dependent fashion, and expression of a catalytically inactive mutant of PI3Kγ abolished the stimulation of MAPK by G β γ or in response to stimulation of muscarinic (m2) G protein-coupled receptors. Signaling from PI3Kγ to MAPK appears to require a tyrosine kinase, Shc, Grb2, Sos, Ras, and Raf. These findings indicate that PI3Kγ mediates G β γ -dependent regulation of the MAPK signaling pathway.
