Figure Lengend Snippet: Combined inhibition of EZH2 methyltransferase and p38 kinase activities reduce AKT signaling in vivo (A) RNA sequencing studies of mammary tumors treated with EPZ-6438 (10 mg/kg/day), SB202190 (p38i, 1 mg/kg/day), combination, or control (4% DMSO-30% PEG 300-5% Tween 80) and excised at day 56. The graph shows significantly deregulated pathways by the combination EPZ/p38i vs. control. (B) Immunoblot of primary xenografts treated as indicated in (A). Combined EPZ/p38i reduces p -AKT compared to single inhibitors. (C) Immunoblots for pAKT and total AKT in MDA-MB-231 cells transduced with HA-tagged WT-p38α, K139A-p38α, K165A-p38α, and K139A/K165A-p38α. P38α mutants display reduced pAKT levels compared to WT-p38α. (D) Immunoblots of MDA-MB-231 EZH2 KD rescued with Myc-tagged WT-EZH2, T367A-EZH2, or vector (pBabe) show that T367 phosphorylation is necessary to upregulate pAKT1 without changes in total AKT1. (E) Representative images of human primary invasive carcinomas. Case 1 shows an invasive high-grade ductal carcinoma with concordant high cyto-pEZH2-T367 and high pAKT, while case 2 shows an intermediate-grade invasive carcinoma with low expression of both proteins. Bars, 50 μm. (F) Schematic illustrating our working model of EZH2 function in breast cancer through H3K27me3-dependent and independent activities. P and Me represent phosphorylation and methylation, respectively.
