Insulin receptor substrate 4 (IRS4) is a constitutive active oncogenic driver collaborating with HER2 and causing therapeutic resistance
نویسندگان
چکیده
Insulin receptor substrate 4 (IRS4) belongs to a family of cytoplasmic docking proteins mediating signals from cell surface receptors to downstream effectors. While IRS1 and IRS2 mediate signals from an active receptor, we found that IRS4 hyperactivates the phosphatidylinositol phosphate kinase (PI3K)-pathway independent of upstream signals and is irresponsive to feedback regulation causing cancer and resistance to human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) targeted therapy.

IRS4 induces mammary tumorigenesis and confers resistance to HER2-targeted therapy through constitutive PI3K/AKT-pathway hyperactivation
In search of oncogenic drivers and mechanisms affecting therapy resistance in breast cancer, we identified Irs4, a poorly studied member of the insulin receptor substrate (IRS) family, as a mammary oncogene by insertional mutagenesis. Whereas normally silent in the postnatal mammary gland, IRS4 is found to be highly expressed in a subset of breast cancers. We show that Irs4 expression in mammar...
متن کاملIrs2 and Irs4 synergize in non-LepRb neurons to control energy balance and glucose homeostasis★
Insulin receptor substrates (Irs1, 2, 3 and Irs4) mediate the actions of insulin/IGF1 signaling. They have similar structure, but distinctly regulate development, growth, and metabolic homeostasis. Irs2 contributes to central metabolic sensing, partially by acting in leptin receptor (LepRb)-expressing neurons. Although Irs4 is largely restricted to the hypothalamus, its contribution to metaboli...
متن کاملInsulin receptor substrate-4 interacts with ubiquitin-specific protease 18 to activate the Jak/STAT signaling pathway
Ubiquitin-specific protease 18 (USP18) as a negative regulator of the Jak/STAT signaling pathway plays an important role in the host innate immune response. USP18 has been shown to bind to the type I interferon receptor subunit 2 (IFNAR2) to down-regulate the Jak/STAT signaling. In this study, we showed that insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-4 functioned as a novel USP18-binding protein. Co-prec...
متن کاملEffect of IRS4 Levels on PI 3-Kinase Signalling
Insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1) and IRS2 are well-characterized adapter proteins that relay signals from receptor tyrosine kinases to downstream components of signalling pathways. In contrast, the function of IRS4 is not well understood. IRS4 overexpression has been associated with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia and subungual exostosis, while point mutations of IRS4 have been found in melano...
متن کاملOvercoming Resistance to HER2 Inhibitors Through State-Specific Kinase Binding
The heterodimeric receptor tyrosine kinase complex formed by HER2 and HER3 can act as an oncogenic driver and is also responsible for rescuing a large number of cancers from a diverse set of targeted therapies. Inhibitors of these proteins, particularly HER2, have dramatically improved patient outcomes in the clinic, but recent studies have demonstrated that stimulating the heterodimeric comple...
