Article Title: The BET inhibitor JQ1 attenuates double-strand break repair and sensitizes models of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma to PARP inhibitors

doi: 10.1016/j.ebiom.2019.05.035

Figure Lengend Snippet: JQ1 decreased the expression of Ku80 and RAD51. (a) Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was done to detect the expression of Ku80 or RAD51 protein in normal pancreas or primary PDAC tumors. Primary PDAC tumors, UAB-PA4 and UAB-PA16, expressed higher levels of the NHEJ protein Ku80 and HR protein RAD51 compared to a normal pancreas (NP2). Quantitation of IHC results is shown as expression indices (were calculated as described in Materials and Methods) in the lower left-hand corner of each photomicrograph. Scale bar = 10 μM. (b) Forty-eight hour treatment of JQ1 (10 μM) decreased mRNA levels of both Ku80 and RAD51 in BxPC3 or Panc1 PDAC cells using qRT-PCR assays. The sequences for primers used are in Table S1 (Supplementary Materials). Data is shown as the mean ± S.E.M. Two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was performed (* p < .05, ** p < .01) using Prism. (c) Immunoblot demonstrating that JQ1 (0.5, 1, 5, or 10 μM) decreased protein expression of Ku80 and RAD51 in BxPC3 or Panc1 PDAC cells treated for 48 h. (d) The immunoblot data in c were quantitated as percent DMSO using ImageStudio Lite (LI-COR Biosciences) and are reported as bar graphs mean ± S.D. Analysis was done by two-way ANOVA (**** p < .0001).

Figure Lengend Snippet: JQ1 + olaparib increased the levels of DNA damage marker γH2AX and reduced the expression of Ku80 and RAD51 in in vivo models of PDAC. Immunoblots (IB) were done to detect γH2AX and DNA repair proteins, Ku80 and RAD51 using UAB-PA4 (a) or UAB-PA16 (b) tumors harvested from mice 24 h following final treatment (see Materials and Methods). Quantitation by densitometry of results is shown below each IB image. Immunohistochemistry was done to detect γH2AX, apoptosis marker cleaved caspase 3 (cl. casp 3) and DNA repair proteins, Ku80 and RAD51 using UAB-PA4 (c) or UAB-PA16 (d) thin sections of tumors harvested from mice 24 h following final treatment. Scale bar = 10 μM. Quantitation of results is shown either as a bar graph for γH2AX and cleaved caspase 3 (cl. casp 3) (e, f for UAB-PA4 and UAB-PA16, respectively) or as expression indices (were calculated as described in Materials and Methods) in the lower left-hand corner of each photomicrograph depicting IHC image. Data are presented as mean ± S.E.M. and analyzed with one-way ANOVA (* p < .05, ** p < .01, *** p < .001, **** p < .0001).

Article Title: The BET inhibitor JQ1 attenuates double-strand break repair and sensitizes models of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma to PARP inhibitors

doi: 10.1016/j.ebiom.2019.05.035

Figure Lengend Snippet: Simultaneous exposure of JQ1 + PARPi increased DNA damage, reduced expression of DNA repair proteins Ku80 and RAD51, inhibited colony formation, and induced synergistic cytotoxicity in PDAC cells. BxPC3 (a) or Panc1 (b) cells were exposed to the indicated concentrations of JQ1 (0.1-100 μM) in combination with 20 μM veliparib or 10 μM olaparib for 72 h, after which alamarBlue solution was added and fluorescence read. Data were normalized to controls at each time point, with control values = 100%. Each point represents the average of quadruplicate wells from three independent assays. Data are presented as mean ± S.D. IC 50 values of JQ1 as a single agent or in combination with veliparib or olaparib are shown in a table below the graph. (c) JQ1 + veliparib increased DNA damage, as reflected by an increase in γH2AX positive BxPC3 cells. The percent of γH2AX-positive cells following exposure to DMSO, veliparib (10 μM), JQ1 (3.5 μM), or JQ1 (3.5 μM) + veliparib (10 μM) for 24 h were quantitated. The % of γH2AX positive cells was calculated by counting the number of positive cells (cells containing ≥5 foci) and dividing it by the total number of cells in two independent experiments (a minimum of 200 cells were counted per experiment). A representative IF stain is shown for each treatment group. Data presented as mean ± S.E.M. and analyzed by one-way ANOVA (** p < .01, *** p < .001). (d) Panc1 cells were exposed to DMSO, JQ1 (1 μM), olaparib (1 μM) or the combination (1:1) for 72 h, at which time drug-containing medium was replaced with drug-free medium and the cells were cultured for an additional 11 days. On day 14, cells were fixed and stained with crystal violet, and quantitation of viable colonies done by determining number of colonies having >50 cells. The data are shown as a box and whisker plot with the whiskers showing the min and max. Analysis was done using a one-way ANOVA (* p < .05, ** p < .01). (e) JQ1 + PARPi are synergistic in PDAC cells. BxPC3 and Panc1 cells were exposed to JQ1 + veliparib (1:1) (0.1-25 μM) or JQ1 + olaparib (1:1) (0.1-100 μM) for 72 h, and cell viability analyzed by alamarBlue assay. Combination indices (CI) are plotted to fraction of cells affected (Fa) using CompuSyn software which was based on the Chou-Talalay method. A CI of <1.0 indicates synergism. (f) JQ1 and JQ1 + olaparib increased the levels of γH2AX and p21, and decreased the expression of Ku80 and RAD51 in BxPC3 cells. BxPC3 cells were exposed to the indicated concentrations of JQ1 (0.1, 1, and 10 μM) with or without 10 μM olaparib for 48 h, and cell lysates were immunostained for the indicated proteins. (g) RAD51 nuclear foci formation assays were done with BxPC3 cells using JQ1 or olaparib as a control. Cells were exposed to JQ1 (20 μM) or olaparib (1 μM) for 24 h, fixed and stained with FITC-RAD51 antibody. DAPI was used to detect nuclei. Quantitation was done by counting the percent (%) RAD51 foci positive cells and plotted as mean ± S.E.M. The % of RAD51 positive cells was calculated by counting the number of positive cells (cells containing ≥5 foci) and dividing it by the total number of cells in three independent experiments (a minimum of 50 cells were counted per experiment). Student's t -test was performed (** p < .01, Scale bar = 10 μm). (For interpretation of the references to colour in this figure legend, the reader is referred to the web version of this article.)

doi: 10.1016/j.ebiom.2019.05.035

Figure Lengend Snippet: Expression of Ku80 and RAD51 was BET-dependent. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays of BRD4 in BxPC3 cells (a) or BRD2 in Panc1 cells (b) on the promoter sequences of Ku80 and RAD51. Forty-eight hour exposure to JQ1 (10 μM) decreased the association of BRD4 or BRD2 with the promoter sequences of Ku80 and RAD51 compared to the vehicle (DMSO) controls. Rabbit IgG was used as a negative control. The data is shown as the mean ± S.D. and two-way ANOVA was used to identify differences in levels of expression (* p < .05, *** p < .001). Experiments in which shRNA was used to decrease expression of BRD4 in BxPC3 (c) or BRD2 (d) in Panc1 cells using shRNA (see Table S1 for sequences), decreased the expression of both Ku80 and RAD51. Quantitation of 6c and 6d is shown in the right panel as the mean ± S.D. in the bar graph. Two-way ANOVA was used to determine significance (**** p < .0001). shGFP serves as a control.
