Abstract

Constitutive activation of NRF2 provides a selective advantage to malignant tumour clones through the hijacking of the NRF2-dependent cytoprotective transcriptional program, which allows the cancer cells to survive and thrive in the chemically stressful tumour niche, whilst also providing resistance to anti-cancer drugs due to the upregulation of xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes and drug efflux pumps. Through a small-molecule epigenetic screen carried out in KEAP1 mutant lung cancer cells, in this study, we identified CCS1477 (Inobrodib) to be an inhibitor of the global NRF2-dependent transcription program. Mechanistically, CCS1477 is able to repress NRF2’s cytoprotective response through the inhibition of its obligate transcriptional activator partner CBP/p300. Importantly, in addition to repressing NRF2-dependent anti-oxidative stress and xenobiotic metabolizing enzyme gene expression, CCS1477 treatment is also able to reverse the chemoresistance phenotype and re-sensitize NRF2-activated tumour cells to anti-cancer drugs. Furthermore, in co-culture experiments of KEAP1 mutant cancer cells with primary human T cells, CCS1477 treatment suppressed the acquisition of the T cell exhaustion transcriptional state, which should function to augment the anti-cancer immune response. Thus, CCS1477-mediated inhibition of CBP/p300 represents a novel therapeutic strategy with which to target the currently untreatable tumours with aberrant NRF2 activation.

期刊介绍: Free Radical Biology and Medicine is a leading journal in the field of redox biology, which is the study of the role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and other oxidizing agents in biological systems. The journal serves as a premier forum for publishing innovative and groundbreaking research that explores the redox biology of health and disease, covering a wide range of topics and disciplines. Free Radical Biology and Medicine also commissions Special Issues that highlight recent advances in both basic and clinical research, with a particular emphasis on the mechanisms underlying altered metabolism and redox signaling. These Special Issues aim to provide a focused platform for the latest research in the field, fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange among researchers and clinicians.
