초록

Transcriptional programs governed by YAP play key roles in conferring resistance to various molecular-targeted anticancer agents. Strategies aimed at inhibiting YAP activity have garnered substantial interest as a means to overcome drug resistance. However, despite extensive research into the canonical Hippo–YAP pathway, few clinical agents are currently available to counteract YAP-associated drug resistance. Here, we present a novel mechanism of YAP stability regulation by MAP3K3 that is independent of Hippo kinases. Furthermore, we identified MAP3K3 as a target for overcoming anticancer drug resistance. Depletion of MAP3K3 led to a substantial reduction in the YAP protein level in melanoma and breast cancer cells. Mass spectrometry analysis revealed that MAP3K3 phosphorylates YAP at serine 405. This MAP3K3-mediated phosphorylation event hindered the binding of the E3 ubiquitin ligase FBXW7 to YAP, thereby preventing its p62-mediated lysosomal degradation. Robust YAP activation was observed in CDK4/6 inhibitor-resistant luminal breast cancer cells. Knockdown or pharmacological inhibition of MAP3K3 effectively suppressed YAP activity and restored CDK4/6 inhibitor sensitivity. Similarly, elevated MAP3K3 expression supported the prosurvival activity of YAP in BRAF inhibitor-resistant melanoma cells. Inhibition of MAP3K3 decreased YAP-dependent cell proliferation and successfully restored BRAF inhibitor sensitivity. In conclusion, our study reveals a previously unrecognized mechanism for the regulation of YAP stability, suggesting MAP3K3 inhibition as a promising strategy for overcoming resistance to CDK4/6 and BRAF inhibitors in cancer treatment.

Abstract

Transcriptional programs governed by YAP play key roles in conferring resistance to various molecular-targeted anticancer agents. Strategies aimed at inhibiting YAP activity have garnered substantial interest as a means to overcome drug resistance. However, despite extensive research into the canonical Hippo–YAP pathway, few clinical agents are currently available to counteract YAP-associated drug resistance. Here, we present a novel mechanism of YAP stability regulation by MAP3K3 that is independent of Hippo kinases. Furthermore, we identified MAP3K3 as a target for overcoming anticancer drug resistance. Depletion of MAP3K3 led to a substantial reduction in the YAP protein level in melanoma and breast cancer cells. Mass spectrometry analysis revealed that MAP3K3 phosphorylates YAP at serine 405. This MAP3K3-mediated phosphorylation event hindered the binding of the E3 ubiquitin ligase FBXW7 to YAP, thereby preventing its p62-mediated lysosomal degradation. Robust YAP activation was observed in CDK4/6 inhibitor-resistant luminal breast cancer cells. Knockdown or pharmacological inhibition of MAP3K3 effectively suppressed YAP activity and restored CDK4/6 inhibitor sensitivity. Similarly, elevated MAP3K3 expression supported the prosurvival activity of YAP in BRAF inhibitor-resistant melanoma cells. Inhibition of MAP3K3 decreased YAP-dependent cell proliferation and successfully restored BRAF inhibitor sensitivity. In conclusion, our study reveals a previously unrecognized mechanism for the regulation of YAP stability, suggesting MAP3K3 inhibition as a promising strategy for overcoming resistance to CDK4/6 and BRAF inhibitors in cancer treatment.
