The high rate of recurrence after radiation therapy in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) indicates that novel approaches and targets are needed to enhance radiosensitivity. Here, we report that neuropilin-2 (NRP2), a receptor for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) that is enriched on sub-populations of TNBC cells with stem cell properties, is an effective therapeutic target for sensitizing TNBC to radiotherapy. Specifically, VEGF/NRP2 signaling induces nitric oxide synthase 2 (NOS2) transcription by a mechanism dependent on Gli1. NRP2-expressing tumor cells serve as a hub to produce nitric oxide (NO), an autocrine and paracrine signaling metabolite, which promotes cysteine-nitrosylation of Kelch-like ECH-asssociated protein 1 (KEAP1) and, consequently, nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NFE2L2)-mediated transcription of antioxidant response genes. Inhibiting VEGF binding to NRP2, using a humanized monoclonal antibody (mAb), results in NFE2L2 degradation via KEAP1 rendering cell lines and organoids vulnerable to irradiation. Importantly, treatment of patient-derived xenografts with the NRP2 mAb and radiation resulted in significant tumor necrosis and regression compared to radiation alone. Together, these findings reveal a targetable mechanism of radioresistance and they support the use of NRP2 mAb as an effective radiosensitizer in TNBC.
