| Popis: | e17037 Background: The poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) olaparib and rucaparib have been approved for the treatment of metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) in the setting of homologous recombination deficiency (HRD). Additionally, PARPi have been shown to modulate androgen receptor (AR) signaling, with a recent report demonstrating mono-ADP-ribosylation of cysteine residues in AR by Parp7. Here, we further evaluated the effect of PARPi on AR activity and localization. Methods: The effect of PARPi on cell growth and survival of CRPC cell lines was evaluated in vitro and in vivo. AR ribosylation was assessed in CRPC cell lines by immunoprecipitation (IP) assays and proximity ligation assays (PLA). The subcellular localization of AR was determined by quantitative immunofluorescence microscopy in CRPC cell lines and xenograft models. Changes in AR activity with PARPi treatment were evaluated by a luciferase reporter assay and AR target gene expression in a PDX model. Finally, PARPi mediated alteration in the AR protein interactome was evaluated by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) proteomics. Results: The PARPi olaparib and talazoparib, and to a lesser extent veliparib, inhibited CRPC cell growth. Evidence of AR ribosylation was seen by IP and PLA. PARPi treatment of multiple in vitro and in vivo prostate cancer models resulted in a shift of AR subcellular localization, from predominantly nuclear to cytoplasmic compartments. In luciferase reporter assays, AR transactivation activity was decreased after PARPi treatment in a dose dependent manner. In vivo, in prostate cancer xenograft models, decreased AR target gene expression was seen upon PARPi treatment. LC-MS/MS proteomic studies revealed that PARP inhibition resulted in significant changes in the composition of AR interaction partners, in particular of proteins related to intracellular trafficking and nuclear transport. This suggests a potential link between altered AR complex assembly and the observed changes in AR subcellular localization in the context of PARPi treatment. Conclusions: We describe a novel sequela of PARPi therapy to alter AR localization and activity in CRPC. Single agent PARP inhibition can alter prostate cancer cell growth in vitro and in vivo. With PARPi treatment, AR localization is shifted to the cytoplasm, the AR interactome is altered, and AR transcriptional activity decreased. These findings implicate a collateral mechanism of PARPi in preventing prostate cancer cell growth/survival that may augment previously described mechanisms related to HDR and synthetic lethality. It is essential to understand the role of PARPi beyond synthetic lethality in the context of HRD in order to better define the spectrum of response to PARPi across patients, and for development of biology-informed combination therapies. |
