DREAM Complex Modulates GIST Cell Quiescence and Enhances Imatinib-Induced Apoptosis

This study explores the role of the DREAM complex in mediating GIST cell quiescence and its potential as a therapeutic target to enhance imatinib-induced apoptosis. The findings suggest that the DREAM complex is involved in both in vitro and in vivo quiescence and could be targeted to improve GIST treatment outcomes.

  3. Background 1. The majority of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), the most common mesenchymal tumor of the gastrointestinal tract , are characterized by oncogenic mutations in the KIT or platelet-derived growth factor receptor-a (PDGFRA) receptor tyrosine kinase. 2. GIST can be successfully treated with the small-molecule kinase inhibitor imatinib mesylate (Gleevec). Complete remissions are rare and patients frequently achieve disease stabilization in the presence of residual tumor masses. 3. Discontinuation of treatment can lead to tumor progression.Residual tumor cells are quiescent, remain viable and able to re-enter the cell-division cycle.

  4. 4. This reversible exit from the cell division cycle and entry into G0 has previously been shown to involve the anaphase-promoting complex the APCCDH1 –SKP2–p27 Kip1 signaling axis. APC, together with its activator CDH1, promotes the polyubiquitylation and subsequent degradation of SKP2, a substrate adaptor component of the SCF (SKP1–Cullin–F-box) complex. SKP2 loss results in the accumulation of its target, the CDK inhibitor p27 Kip1, and the reinforcement of a quiescent state. In previous study, we could show that this process is active in imatinib-treated GIST cells.

  5. 5. A second major group of proteins that negatively regulate the cell cycle. p130 has been shown to accumulate in G0 and is regulated by SKP2. p130 interacts with E2F4 to repress E2F-dependent gene transcription. This DREAM complex is a multisubunit protein complex in mammalian, consists of DP, RBL2 (p130), E2F4 and the mammalian homologs of the Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) synthetic multivulva class B (synMuvB) core gene products LIN9, LIN37, LIN52, LIN53/RBBP4, and LIN54. Specificity tyrosine-phosphorylation–regulated kinase (DYRK), DYRK1A, mediated pLIN52-Ser28 of the DREAM component and pLIN52-Ser28 was shown to regulate complex formation in G0.

  6. 6. Imatinib induces GIST cell quiescence in vitro through the APCCDH1 –SKP2–p27 Kip1 signaling axis. 7. DREAM complex, a multisubunit complex that has recently been identified as an additional key regulator of quiescence. 8. Here, we provide evidence that imatinib induces GIST cell quiescence in vivo and that this process also involves the DREAM complex.

  7. Material The human GIST cell line GIST882 (derived from an untreated metastatic GIST) For mouse xenograft models GIST882 cells [carrying a KIT p.K642E (exon 13) mutation)] or tumors originating from the biopsies of two patients [bearing KIT p.V650D (exon 11) or KIT p.A502_Y503dup (exon 9) mutations, respectively] were implanted in both flanks of two mice. Second-passage xenografts were generated by explanting established xenografts and implanting them into the flanks of a second set of mice.

  8. Methods 1. Cell culture, inhibitor treatments, and siRNA-transfections 2. Immunologic and cell-staining methods ( Coimmunoprecipitation and immunofluorescence analysis) 3. BrdUrd assay 4. Senescence-associated β-galactosidase activity (~ staining kit) 5. Quantitative real-time reverse transcriptase PCR 6. Cell-cycle analysis (Flow Cytometry) 7. GIST xenograft models

  16. Figure S4. Knockdown of single DREAM complex subunits (p130, E2F4, LIN9, LIN37, or LIN54) did not result in a significant increase of imatinib-induced GIST cell apoptosis E2F4/LIN54 knockdown enhanced GIST cell apoptosis. Inhibition of efficient DREAM complex formation resulted in increased baseline proliferation.

  19. Here, we show that • Imatinib induces GIST cell quiescence in vivo and in vitro. • 2. This process involves the DREAM complex as evidenced by upregulation of p130, increased p130/E2F4/LIN37 complex formation, and enhanced phosphorylation of the DREAM subunit LIN52. • 3. Importantly, inhibition of DREAM complex formation, abrogation of quiescence by siRNA-mediated knock-down of LIN52 or the DYRK1A kinase were both found to significantly increase imatinib-induced GIST cell apoptosis. • 4. Therefore, interference with DREAM-mediated quiescence can enhance imatinib-induced apoptosis and anti-GIST cell activity, which emphasizes the relevance of the DREAM complex as novel drug target for more efficient imatinib responses.
