BACKGROUND: Splicing factors are frequently mutated in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes and acute myeloid leukaemia. Recent studies have revealed convergent molecular defects caused by splicing factor mutations, among which R-loop dysregulation and resultant genome instability are suggested as contributing factors to disease progression. On the other hand, understanding how mutant cells survive upon aberrant R-loop formation and genome instability is essential for developing novel therapeutics.
METHODS: The immunoprecipitation was performed to identify R-loops in association with PARP1/poly-ADP-ribosylation. The western blot, immunofluorescence, and flow cytometry assays were used to test the cell viability, cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and ATM activation in mutant cells following the treatment of the PARP inhibitor. The Srsf2(P95H) knock-in murine hematopoietic cells and MLL-AF9 transformed leukaemia model were generated to investigate the potential of the PARP inhibitor as a therapy for haematological malignancies.
RESULTS: The disease-causing mutations in SRSF2 activate PARP and elevate the overall poly-ADP-ribosylation levels of proteins in response to R-loop dysregulation. In accordance, mutant cells are more vulnerable to the PARP inhibitors in comparison to the wild-type counterpart. Notably, the synthetic lethality was further validated in the Srsf2(P95H) knock-in murine hematopoietic cell and MLL-AF9 leukaemia model.
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that mutant cells antagonise the genome threat caused by R-loop disruption by PARP activation, thus making PARP targeting a promising therapeutic strategy for myeloid cancers with mutations in SRSF2.
