ABCG2 is a half-transporter mainly expressed at the plasma membrane in many healthy tissues including tissue barriers and the gastrointestinal tract. Determining protein-protein interactions of ABCG2 can elucidate a concrete mechanism of regulation (e.g., activation and inhibition) in diseased and healthy states. Moreover, differential tissue regulation of ABCG2 can fully exploit ABCG2’s native roles and broad substrate specificity. Mutations and alterations of expression have been linked to pathologies such as Alzheimer’s, diabetes, cancer, genetic disorders and many infections. Understanding signaling pathways through protein interactions can uncover new therapeutics and drug targets against such ailments. This project uses a proximity-dependent biotinylation approach (BirA) to identify two types of ABCG2 interacting proteins: direct interactors and those within a 10Å sphere. ABCG2 fused with BirA at its N-terminus was stably transfected into HEK293F (an embryonic cell line) and several clones were functionally characterized. Biotinylated proteins, using the latter HEK-BirA-huABCG2 transfectants, identified by mass spectrometry were compared to those interacting with ABCG1 (using HEK- BirA-ABCG1 transfectants), an endosomal transporter that is involved in lipid homeostasis. Proteins that interacted with ABCG2 and ABCG1 were analyzed and compared for differential subcellular localizations and cellular pathways. ABRÉGÉ Les transporteurs ABC sont essentiels pour la désintoxication et le transport sélectif des substances dans les cellules humaines. ABCG2 est un demi-transporteur exprimé principalement dans la membrane cytoplasmique de nombreux tissus sains, tels que les barrières tissulaires et le système digestif. En déterminant les interactions protéines-protéines de ABCG2, cela nous permet Page 2 of 110 d’élucider les mécanismes d’activation et d’inhibition dans les cas de maladies et dans les cas normaux. Les mutations et les altérations dans l’expression de génétiques sont liées aux maladies telles que la maladie d'Alzheimer, le diabète, le cancer, les anomalies génétiques et plusieurs infections. La découverte d’une nouvelle voie de signalisation peut dévoiler de nouvelles thérapeutiques et cibles contres ces maladies. Ce projet utilise l'approche BioID (avec BirA) pour identifier des interactions protéines-protéines avec ABCG2 dans une sphère d'interaction de 10Å. BirA fusionné au N-terminus de ABCG2 a été transfecté dans HEK293F (un ligne cellulaire embryonnaire) et plusieurs clones stables ont été caractérisés fonctionnellement. Les protéines, qui sont biotinylées par HEK-BirA-huABCG2 et identifiées par la spectrométrie de masse ont été comparés à ceux qui interagissent avec ABCG1 (en utilisant HEK-BirA-huABCG1), un demi- transporteur dans la même famille de ABCG2 qui reste à l’endosome et qui transporte le cholestérol. Ces protéines qui interagissent avec ABCG2 et ABCG1 ont été analysées et comparées pour déterminer leurs emplacements dans la cellule et leurs voies cellulaires.

Each experience in his lab has challenged me to think critically and independently as well as contribute to my maturity as a person. I thank every one of my lab members, namely: Dr. Fadi Baakdah, Dr. Georgia Limniatis, and Zahra Sahaf for training me upon my arrival at the lab as well as offering me advice during stressful times. I will never forget laughing till my stomach hurt because of Fadi’s dad jokes (and constantly reminding him my name is Kristen with an E) or discussing key issues with Georgia (ie. stress shopping and eating cheese because a result made no sense). I thank Haritha Menon for supporting me as we worked through the stress of our M.Sc. projects together and pushed each other to stay consistent at the gym. My lab mates have been like family to me and I am immensely grateful to have shared these past few years with them and call them friends. Special thanks to my committee member Professor Sébastien Faucher not only for being an active member of my committee but also training me during my undergraduate degree as one of his interns. Additional thanks to the Fonds de recherche du Quebec – Nature et technologies (FRQNT) for providing me with the scholarship to financially support me through my degree. I would also like to thank the entirety of the Institute of Parasitology at McGill, namely fellow students: Nisha Ramamurthy, Rishi Rajesh, Dr. Mark Kaji, Jennifer Noonan, Maude Dagenais, Jysiane Cardot, Moti Sobat, Elizabeth Siciliani, Cathy Shang Kuan and Eyre Nomi. I will always have nightmares from the horror movie Rishi, Nisha and Mark dragged me to see but will still cherish the time we spent together.

Page 5 of 110 CONTRIBUTIONS TO ORIGINAL KNOWLEDGE The current knowledge on these transporters is limited to studies demonstrating knocking down or amplifying expression of proteins and pathways to alter expression of ABCG1 or ABCG2. Many studies try to explore resolution techniques involving using inhibitors of these ABCG transporters that have low toxicity, however, most have not been approved for use in human trials. Understanding possible differences in the interactions between these transporters in healthy versus diseased states, such as cancer, could better isolate therapies that target solely the transporters involved in disease and not hinder their native functions in healthy tissues. In this thesis we provide a list of proteins hypothesized to interact and therefore take part in a mechanism or pathway involved in mitigating ABCG1 and ABCG2 expression and activity. CONTRIBUTION OF AUTHORS The experiments conducted for the project of this thesis were carried out under the oversight of Professor Elias Georges, who supervised the experimental design and is involved in the editing of this thesis and any subsequent manuscripts.

  • The Pharmacogenomics of Vincristine-Induced Neurotoxicity
    THE PHARMACOGENOMICS OF VINCRISTINE-INDUCED NEUROTOXICITY IN PAEDIATRIC CANCER PATIENTS WITH WILMS TUMOR OR RHABDOMYOSARCOMA by Tenneille Loo A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Experimental Medicine) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) July 2011 © Tenneille Loo, 2011 Abstract Vincristine is one of the most effective and widely utilized antineoplastic agents. However, the clinical utility of this drug is limited by severely debilitating vincristine- induced neurotoxicities (VIN). Previous studies have associated VIN with genetic polymorphisms in genes involved in the metabolism and transportation of vincristine, including CYP3A4, CYP3A5, and ABCB1. However, the findings of such studies have not been consistently reproduced. This study hypothesizes that there are specific variants in genes involved in general drug absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretion, and toxicity (ADME-Tox) that affect the individual susceptibility to VIN in patients with Wilms tumor and rhabdomyosarcoma. Detailed clinical data was collected from 140 patients with Wilms tumor and rhabdomyosarcoma by retrospective chart review. VIN cases were characterized by type of neurotoxicity, and severity was evaluated using a validated clinical grading system for adverse events (NCI-CTCAE v4.03). A customized Illumina GoldenGate Panel was used to genotype 4,536 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in candidate genes involved in the metabolism and transportation pathway of vincristine, as well as in genes broadly involved in ADME-Tox. None of the SNPs that were previously reported to be associated with VIN were found to be significantly associated (p-value < 0.05). With similar effect sizes, six novel genetic variants in five genes (PON1, ABCA4, ABCG1, CY51A1, SLCO1C1) were significantly associated with VIN in both tumor types.

In mammalian cells, control of cellular zinc homeostasis is through zinc uptake, zinc secretion, and zinc compartmentalization, mediated by metal transporters of the Zrt-/Irt-like protein (ZIP) family and the Cation Diffusion Facilitators (CDF) or ZnT family. We quantified transcript levels of ZIP and ZnT zinc transporters expressed by non-tumorigenic UROtsa cells and compared with those expressed by UROtsa clones that were experimentally transformed to cancer cells by prolonged exposure to cadmium (Cd). Although expression of the ZIP8 gene in parent UROtsa cells was lower than ZIP14 (0.1 vs. 83 transcripts per 1000 β-actin transcripts), an increased expression of ZIP8 concurrent with a reduction in expression of one or two zinc influx transporters, namely ZIP1, ZIP2, and ZIP3, were seen in six out of seven transformed UROtsa clones.

  • Targeting an Nrf2/G6pdh Pathway to Reverse Multi-Drug
    TARGETING AN NRF2/G6PDH PATHWAY TO REVERSE MULTI-DRUG RESISTANCE IN DIFFUSE LARGE B-CELL LYMPHOMA A Dissertation by SEYEDHOSSEIN MOUSAVIFARD Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Steve Maxwell Committee Members, James C. Sacchettini Raquel Sitcheran David W. Threadgill Warren Zimmer Head of Program, Warren Zimmer May 2017 Major Subject: Medical Sciences Copyright 2017 Seyed Hossein Mousavi-Fard ABSTRACT A leading cause of mortality in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients is the development of resistance to the CHOP regimen, the anthracycline-based chemotherapy consisting of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone. Our first objective of this work was to investigate the impact of Nuclear factor erythroid–related factor 2 (Nrf2)/ glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) pathway on CHOP-resistance in DLBCL cell lines. We provide evidence here that a Nrf2/G6PDH pathway plays a role in mediating CHOP resistance in DLBCL. We found that CHOP-resistant DLBCL cells expressed both higher Nrf2 and G6PDH activities and lower reactive oxygen (predominantly superoxide) levels than CHOP- sensitive cells. We hypothesized that increased activity of the Nrf2/G6PDH pathway leads to higher GSH production, a more reduced state (lower ROS), and CHOP-resistance. In support of our hypothesis, direct inhibition of G6PDH or knockdown of Nrf2/G6PDH lowered both NADPH and GSH levels, increased ROS, and reduced tolerance or CHOP-resistant cells to CHOP. We also present evidence that repeated cycles of CHOP treatment select for a small population of Nrf2High/G6PDHHigh/ROSLow cells that are more tolerant of CHOP and might be responsible for the emergence of chemoresistant tumors.

  • Inhibiting ABCG2 with Sorafenib
    Published OnlineFirst May 16, 2012; DOI: 10.1158/1535-7163.MCT-12-0215 Molecular Cancer Therapeutic Discovery Therapeutics New Use for an Old Drug: Inhibiting ABCG2 with Sorafenib Yinxiang Wei1,3, Yuanfang Ma3, Qing Zhao1,4, Zhiguang Ren1,3, Yan Li1, Tingjun Hou2, and Hui Peng1 Abstract Human ABCG2, a member of the ATP-binding cassette transporter superfamily, represents a promising target for sensitizing MDR in cancer chemotherapy. Although lots of ABCG2 inhibitors were identified, none of them has been tested clinically, maybe because of several problems such as toxicity or safety and pharma- cokinetic uncertainty of compounds with novel chemical structures. One efficient solution is to rediscover new uses for existing drugs with known pharmacokinetics and safety profiles. Here, we found the new use for sorafenib, which has a dual-mode action by inducing ABCG2 degradation in lysosome in addition to inhibiting its function. Previously, we reported some novel dual-acting ABCG2 inhibitors that showed closer similarity to degradation-induced mechanism of action. On the basis of these ABCG2 inhibitors with diverse chemical structures, we developed a pharmacophore model for identifying the critical pharmacophore features necessary for dual-acting ABCG2 inhibitors. Sorafenib forms impressive alignment with the pharmacophore hypothesis, supporting the argument that sorafenib is a potential ABCG2 inhibitor. This is the first article that sorafenib may be a good candidate for chemosensitizing agent targeting ABCG2-mediated MDR. This study may facilitate the rediscovery of new functions of structurally diverse old drugs and provide a more effective and safe way of sensitizing MDR in cancer chemotherapy.
