    Abstract The recent renewed interest in phenotypic drug discovery has concomitantly put a focus on target deconvolution in order to achieve drug-target identification. Even though there are prescribed therapies whose mode of action is not fully understood, knowledge of the primary target will inevitably facilitate the discovery and translation of efficacy from bench to bedside. Elucidating targets and subsequent pathways engaged will also facilitate safety studies and overall development of novel drug candidates. Today, there are several techniques available for identifying the primary target, many of which rely on mass spectrometry (MS) to identify compound - target protein interactions. The Cellular Thermal Shift Assay (CETSA®) is well suited for identifying target engagement between ligands and their protein targets. Several studies have shown that CETSA combined with MS is a powerful technique that allows unlabeled target deconvolution in complex samples such as intact cells and tissues in addition to cell lysates and other protein suspensions. The applicability of CETSA MS for target deconvolution purposes will be discussed and exemplified in this mini review.

    Abstract The reuse of preexisting small molecules for a novel emerging disease threat is a rapid measure to discover unknown applications for previously validated therapies. A pertinent and recent example where such a strategy could be employed is in the fight against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Therapies designed or discovered to target viral proteins also have off-target effects on the host proteome when employed in a complex physiological environment. This study aims to assess these host cell targets for a panel of FDA-approved antiviral compounds including remdesivir, using the cellular thermal shift assay (CETSA) coupled with mass spectrometry (CETSA MS) in noninfected cells. CETSA MS is a powerful method to delineate direct and indirect interactions between small molecules and protein targets in intact cells. Biologically active compounds can induce changes in thermal stability, in their primary binding partners, and in proteins that in turn interact with the direct targets. Such engagement of host targets by antiviral drugs may contribute to the clinical effect against the virus but can also constitute a liability. We present here a comparative study of CETSA molecular target engagement fingerprints of antiviral drugs to better understand the link between off-targets and efficacy.

    Abstract The active form of vitamin D (1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D) acts as a steroid hormone and binds to the vitamin D receptor. This receptor is expressed in most cell types including cells in the central nervous system (CNS). Vitamin D has several functions in the body including effects on brain development, neuroprotection and immunological regulation. It has been shown that vitamin D has antiproliferative activities in different cancer cell lines. Tacalcitol and calcipotriol are synthetic analogues of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D with reduced effect on calcium metabolism. The aim of this study was to analyse the effects of tacalcitol and calcipotriol on cell viability, proliferation and migration in the human glioblastoma cell line T98G. Glioblastoma is the most lethal type of primary tumours in the CNS. Both analogues decreased cell viability and/or growth, dose-dependently, in concentrations between 1 nM and 10 μM. Manual counting indicated suppressive effects by the vitamin D analogues on proliferation. Treatment with tacalcitol strongly suppressed thymidine incorporation, indicating that the vitamin D analogues mainly inhibit proliferation. Also, effects on cell migration were measured with wound-healing assay. Both calcipotriol and tacalcitol reduced the migration rate of T98G cells compared to vehicle-treated cells. However, they had no effect on caspase-3 and -7 activities, suggesting that their mechanism of action does not involve induction of apoptosis. The current results indicate that the vitamin D analogues tacalcitol and calcipotriol strongly reduce proliferation and migration of human glioblastoma T98G cells, suggesting a potential role for this type of compounds in treatment of brain cancer.

    Abstract The spread of tumor cells and the formation of distant metastasis remain the main causes of mortality in cancer patients. However, the mechanisms governing the release of cells from micro-environmental constraints remain unclear. E-cadherin negatively controls the invasion of epithelial cells by maintaining cell-cell contacts. Furthermore, the inactivation of E-cadherin triggers invasion in vitro. However, the role of E-cadherin is complex, as metastasizing cells maintain E-cadherin expression, which appears to have a positive role in the survival of tumor cells. In this report, we present a novel mechanism delineating how E-cadherin function is modulated to promote invasion. We have previously shown that E-cadherin is associated with p100AmotL2, which is required for radial actin formation and the transmission of mechanical force. Here, we present evidence that p60AmotL2, which is expressed in invading tumor cells, binds to the p100AmotL2 isoform and uncouples the mechanical constraint of radial actin filaments. We show for the first time that the coupling of E-cadherin to the actin cytoskeleton via p100AmotL2 is directly connected to the nuclear membrane. The expression of p60AmotL2 inactivates this connection and alters the properties of the nuclear lamina, potentiating the invasion of cells into micropores of the extracellular matrix. In summary, we propose that the balance of the two AmotL2 isoforms is important in the modulation of E-cadherin function and that an imbalance of this axis promotes ameboid cell invasion.

    Abstract Targeted protein degradation represents an area of great interest, potentially offering improvements with respect to dosing, side effects, drug resistance, and reaching "undruggable" proteins compared with traditional small-molecule therapeutics. A major challenge in the design and characterization of degraders acting as molecular glues is that binding of the molecule to the protein of interest (PoI) is not needed for efficient and selective protein degradation; instead, one needs to understand the interaction with the responsible ligase. Similarly, for proteasome targeting chimeras (PROTACs), understanding the binding characteristics of the PoI alone is not sufficient. Therefore, simultaneously assessing the binding to both PoI and the E3 ligase as well as the resulting degradation profile is of great value. The cellular thermal shift assay (CETSA) is an unbiased cell-based method, designed to investigate the interaction of compounds with their cellular protein targets by measuring compound-induced changes in protein thermal stability. In combination with mass spectrometry (MS), CETSA can simultaneously evaluate compound-induced changes in the stability of thousands of proteins. We have used CETSA MS to profile a number of protein degraders, including molecular glues (e.g., immunomodulatory drugs) and PROTACs, to understand mode of action and to deconvolute off-target effects in intact cells. Within the same experiment, we were able to monitor both target engagement by observing changes in protein thermal stability as well as efficacy by simultaneous assessment of protein abundances. This allowed us to correlate target engagement (i.e., binding to the PoI and ligases) and functional readout (i.e., degrader induced protein degradation).

    Abstract Cyclin-dependent-kinases (CDKs) are members of the serine/threonine kinase family and are highly regulated by cyclins, a family of regulatory subunits that bind to CDKs. CDK9 represents one of the most studied examples of these transcriptional CDKs. CDK9 forms a heterodimeric complex with its regulatory subunit cyclins T1, T2 and K to form the positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb). This complex regulates transcription via the phosphorylation of RNA polymerase II (RNAPolII) on Ser-2, facilitating promoter clearance and transcription elongation and thus remains an attractive therapeutic target. Herein, we have utilized classical affinity purification chemical proteomics, kinobeads assay, compressed CEllular Thermal Shift Assay (CETSA)-MS and Limited Proteolysis (LiP) to study the selectivity, target engagement and downstream mechanistic insights of a CDK9 tool compound. The above experiments highlight the value of quantitative mass spectrometry approaches to drug discovery, specifically proteome wide target identification and selectivity profiling. The approaches utilized in this study unanimously indicated that the CDK family of kinases are the main target of the compound of interest, with CDK9, showing the highest target affinity with remarkable consistency across approaches. We aim to provide guidance to the scientific community on the available chemical biology/proteomic tools to study advanced lead molecules and to highlight pros and cons of each technology while describing our findings in the context of the CDKs biology.

    Abstract Fibrosis is a deleterious consequence of chronic inflammation in a number of human pathologies ultimately leading to organ dysfunction and failure. Two growth factors that are important in blood vessel physiology and tissue fibrosis, platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-B and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1, were investigated. Adenoviral vectors were used to induce transient overexpression of these growth factors in mouse skin. Changes in tissue structure and protein and mRNA expressions were investigated. Both PDGF-B and TGF-β1 could initiate but neither could sustain angiogenesis. Instead, vascular regression was observed. Overexpression of both TGF-β1 and PDGF-B led to a marked macrophage influx and an expansion of the connective tissue cell population. Over time, this effect was sustained in mice treated with TGF-β1, whereas it was partially reversible in mice treated with PDGF-B. On the basis of structure and expression of phenotypical markers, the emerging connective tissue cell population may originate from microvascular pericytes. TGF-β1 induced expansion of connective tissue cells with a myofibroblast phenotype, whereas PDGF-B induced a fibroblast phenotype negative for α-smooth muscle actin. TGF-β1 and PDGF-B overexpressions mediated distinct effects on mRNA transcript levels of fibrillar procollagens, their modifying enzymes, small leucin-rich repeat proteoglycans, and matricellular proteins affecting both the composition and the quantity of the extracellular matrix. This study offers new insight into the effects of PDGF-B and TGF-β1 on the vasculature and connective tissue in vivo.
