Abstract

The majority of colorectal cancers are induced by subsequent mutations in APC and KRAS genes leading to aberrant activation of both canonical Wnt and Ras signaling. However, due to induction of feedback rescue mechanisms some cancers do not respond well to targeted inhibitor treatments. In this study we show that the APC and KRAS mutant human colorectal Cancer cell line HCT-15 induces canonical Wnt signaling through YAP in a MEK dependent mechanism. This inductive loop is disrupted with combined tankyrase (TNKS) and MEK inhibition. RNA Sequencing analysis suggests that combined TNKS/MEK inhibition induces metabolic stress responses in HCT-15 cells promoting a positive FOXO3/FOXM1 ratio to reduce antioxidative and cryoprotective systems.
