ABSTRACT The stress-associated molecular chaperone system is an actionable target in cancer therapies. It ubiquitously upregulated tissues and enables tumorigenicity by stabilizing hundreds of oncoproteins disturbing the stoichiometry protein complexes. Most inhibitors key component heat-shock 90 (HSP90). However, although classical HSP90 are highly tumor-selective, they fail phase 3 clinical oncology trials. These failures at least partly due to interference with a negative feedback loop inhibition, known as response (HSR): inhibition there compensatory synthesis stress-inducible chaperones, mediated transcription factor 1 (HSF1). We recently identified that wildtype p53 (p53) actively reduces HSR repressing HSF1 via p21-CDK4/6-MAPK-HSF1 axis. Here we test hypothesis HSP90-based therapies simultaneous activation or direct cell cycle interrupts deleterious HSF1-HSR axis improves efficiency inhibitors.

For monogenic diseases caused by pathogenic loss-of-function DNA variants, attention focuses on dysregulated gene-specific pathways, usually considering molecular subtypes together within causal genes. To better understand phenotypic variability in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), we subcategorized variants ENG/endoglin, ACVRL1/ALK1, and SMAD4 if they generated premature termination codons (PTCs) subject to nonsense-mediated decay. In 3 patient cohorts, a PTC-based classification system explained some previously puzzling hemorrhage variability. blood outgrowth endothelial cells (BOECs) derived from patients with ACVRL1+/PTC, ENG+/PTC, SMAD4+/PTC genotypes, PTC-containing RNA transcripts persisted at low levels (8%-23% expected, varying between replicate cultures); genes differentially expressed Bonferroni P < .05 HHT+/PTC BOECs clustered significantly only generic protein terms (isopeptide-bond/ubiquitin-like conjugation) pulse-chase experiments detected subtle maturation differences but no evidence for PTC-truncated protein. displaying highest PTC persistence were discriminated unsupervised hierarchical clustering of near-invariant housekeeper genes, patterns compatible higher cellular stress >11% persistence. test directionality, used HeLa reporter detect induction activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4), which controls expression stress-adaptive showed that ENG Q436X not R93X directly induced ATF4. AlphaFold accurately modeled relevant domains, AlphaMissense suggesting readthrough substitutions would be benign other less rare nonsense more damaging Q436X. We conclude PTCs should distinguished transcript increase stressed cells, proteins mechanisms provide promising research avenues.

The 90-kDa heat shock proteins (HSP90s) are molecular chaperones essential for folding, unfolding, degradation and activity of a wide range client proteins. HSP90s their cognate co-chaperones subject to various post-translational modifications, functional consequences which not fully understood in cancer. Intracellular extracellular HSP90 family members (HSP90α, HSP90β, GRP94 TRAP1) promote cancer by sustaining hallmarks cancer, including cell death resistance, replicative immortality, tumor immunity, angiogenesis, invasion metastasis. Given the importance progression, inhibitors HSP90-based vaccines were developed treatment Further understanding functions may provide new opportunities novel therapeutic strategies

Heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) orchestrates the cellular heat response (HSR) by binding to elements (HSEs) in promoters of genes encoding proteins (HSPs). In a nonstressed state, HSF1 exists dormant complex with HSP90 and other chaperones. Upon stress or upon inhibition HSP90, dissociates from activates expression HSPs mitigate protein misfolding aggregation. This study explores potential RNA aptamers selected against modulate activity, role Huntington's disease model characterized Selected disrupted HSP90-HSF1 interaction, enhancing HSEs. upregulated reduced aggregation Q74-huntingtin Neuro 2a cells improved cell survival. Designed antidote sequences could reverse effect on HSF1-HSE allowing for fine-tuning HSR. Chronic activation pathways is deleterious fitness. Our findings suggest that coupling an aptamer offers novel therapeutic strategy regulate proteostasis under conditions.
