Extended Data Fig. 1. Phosphorylation of ALK is increased in PARPi/platinum-resistant ovarian and breast cancer.

Extended Data Fig. 1

(a) Representative images (left) and quantification of phosphorylation signals (right) of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) in PARPi-sensitive and PARPi-resistant ovarian cancer cells. Cell lysates were analyzed using the Human Phospho-RTK Array Kit (ARY001B, R&D Systems) following the manufacturer’s instructions. The quantification for p-ALK is included in the main manuscript (Fig. 1B, left panel). Quantified phosphorylation signals derived from n = 2 antibody spots of indicated RTK. (b) Western blot analysis of indicated proteins in PARPi/platinum-sensitive and PARPi/platinum-resistant ovarian cancer cells. Data are representative of two repeats with similar results. (c) Western blot analysis of indicated proteins in PARPi-sensitive triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells (parental) and TNBC cells with acquired resistance to PARPi (#6 and #15) treated with 50 nM PARPi (talazoparib) or 0.5 μM ALK inhibitor (ALKi; ceritinib), either alone or in combination, for 48 hours. TNBC cells with acquired resistance to PARPi were selected after exposing PARPi-sensitive SUM149 cells to the increasing doses of talazoparib. Data are representative of two repeats with similar results. (d) Cell viability of parental PARPi-sensitive TNBC cells or TNBC cells with acquired resistance to PARPi treated with the indicated dose of cisplatin for 96 hours. Data are represented as mean ± SD of N = 3 independent experiments. Parental vs Resistant #6, ***P = 0.0004; Parental vs Resistant #15, ***P = 0.0006; one-way ANOVA analysis. (e) Representative images of clonogenic assay results in PARPi-resistant ovarian and TNBC cells in the presence of the indicated inhibitor for 12 days. The mean percentage of growth inhibition derived from N = 3 independent experiments of clonogenic assay was used to calculate the combination index (CI) value. Synergistic inhibition of cell proliferation is defined as CI < 1. CER, ceritinib; OLA, olaparib; Comb, combination of ceritinib and olaparib.
