  • Expanded and Activated Allogeneic NK Cells Are Cytotoxic Against B
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Expanded and activated allogeneic NK cells are cytotoxic against B‑chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B‑CLL) cells with sporadic cases of resistance Tania Calvo1,8, Chantal Reina‑Ortiz1,8, David Giraldos1, María Gascón1, Daniel Woods1, Judit Asenjo2, Joaquín Marco‑Brualla1, Gemma Azaceta3, Isabel Izquierdo4, Luis Palomera3, Diego Sánchez‑Martínez5,6, Isabel Marzo1, Javier Naval1, Carlos Vilches2, Martín Villalba5,6 & Alberto Anel1,7* Adoptive transfer of allogeneic natural killer (NK) cells is becoming a credible immunotherapy for hematological malignancies. In the present work, using an optimized expansion/activation protocol of human NK cells, we generate expanded NK cells (eNK) with increased expression of CD56 and NKp44, while maintaining that of CD16. These eNK cells exerted signifcant cytotoxicity against cells from 34 B‑CLL patients, with only 1 sample exhibiting resistance. This sporadic resistance did not correlate with match between KIR ligands expressed by the eNK cells and the leukemic cells, while cells with match resulted sensitive to eNK cells. This suggests that KIR mismatch is not relevant when expanded NK cells are used as efectors. In addition, we found two examples of de novo resistance to eNK cell cytotoxicity during the clinical course of the disease. Resistance correlated with KIR‑ligand match in one of the patients, but not in the other, and was associated with a signifcant increase in PD‑L1 expression in the cells from both patients. Treatment of one of these patients with idelalisib correlated with the loss of PD‑L1 expression and with re‑sensitization to eNK cytotoxicity. We confrmed the idelalisib‑induced decrease in PD‑L1 expression in the B‑CLL cell line Mec1 and in cultured cells from B‑CLL patients.

  • Drug-Based Perturbation Screen Uncovers Synergistic Drug Combinations in Burkitt Lymphoma Received: 17 May 2018 K
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Drug-based perturbation screen uncovers synergistic drug combinations in Burkitt lymphoma Received: 17 May 2018 K. Tomska1, R. Kurilov2,3, K. S. Lee1, J. Hüllein1, M. Lukas1, L. Sellner 5, T. Walther1, Accepted: 30 July 2018 L. Wagner1, M. Oleś 4, B. Brors2, W. Huber4 & T. Zenz1,6 Published: xx xx xxxx Burkitt lymphoma (BL) is a highly aggressive B-cell lymphoma associated with MYC translocation. Here, we describe drug response profling of 42 blood cancer cell lines including 17 BL to 32 drugs targeting key cancer pathways and provide a systematic study of drug combinations in BL cell lines. Based on drug response, we identifed cell line specifc sensitivities, i.e. to venetoclax driven by BCL2 overexpression and partitioned subsets of BL driven by response to kinase inhibitors. In the combination screen, including BET, BTK and PI3K inhibitors, we identifed synergistic combinations of PI3K and BTK inhibition with drugs targeting Akt, mTOR, BET and doxorubicin. A detailed comparison of PI3K and BTKi combinations identifed subtle diferences, in line with convergent pathway activity. Most synergistic combinations were identifed for the BET inhibitor OTX015, which showed synergistic efects for 41% of combinations including inhibitors of PI3K/AKT/mTOR signalling. The strongest synergy was observed for the combination of the CDK 2/7/9 inhibitor SNS032 and OTX015. Our data provide a landscape of drug combination efects in BL and suggest that targeting CDK and BET could provide a novel vulnerability of BL. Burkitt’s lymphoma (BL) is a highly aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), which is driven by the character- istic translocation of the MYC oncogene1,2.

Plakins have been found to be involved in disorders and diseases of the skin, heart, nervous system, and cancer that are attributed to autoimmune responses and genetic alterations of these macromolecules. Despite their role and involvement across a spectrum of several diseases, there are no current drugs or pharmacological agents that specifically target the members of this protein family.

Ali, Oleta Sandiford, Allan Lipton, Pranela Rameshwar, Gabriel N. Hortobagyi, Madhavan Radhakrishna Pillai, and Rakesh Kumar Supplementary Figures Supplementary Figure S1: Fitness-dependency of cellular targets of approved oncology drugs in cancer cell lines. A, Distribution of alterations in the cellular fitness in esophageal cancer cell lines upon selective knockdown of FSPS test gene. The values are plotted as boxplots with positive and negative changes in the cellular fitness for each cell line, represented by a single dot. B, Effect of knocking down of indicated targets in Head and Neck carcinoma cell lines. C, Distribution of 47 cancer targets of FDA-approved drugs, including, a subset of its 15 priority therapeutic targets in across cancer- types for which drugs targeting these cellular targets are approved. D, Distribution of 47 fitness targets across 19 cancer types for which drugs targeting these molecules are approved corresponds to the loss of Fitness score for were taken from Cancer Dependency Map (23). Supplementary Figure S2: Cellular targets of approved oncology drugs as excellent fitness genes in cancer-types for which drugs targeting these are not approved. Distribution of 43 cellular fitness genes with a significant loss of cellular fitness upon their depletion across peripheral nervous system, large intestine and ovarian cell lines
