Transcription profiling of mouse cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs) reveals are activation in incipient neoplasia to orchestrate tumor promoting inflammation in an NF-I?B-dependent manner.

ABSTRACT: Full title: Cancer Associated Fibroblasts are activated in incipient neoplasia to orchestrate tumor promoting inflammation in an NF-ÎºB-dependent manner. Cancer Associated Fibroblasts (CAFs) support tumorigenesis by stimulating angiogenesis, cancer cell proliferation, and invasion. We demonstrate that CAFs also mediate tumor-enhancing inflammation. Using a mouse model of squamous skin cancer, we found a pro-inflammatory gene signature in CAFs isolated from dysplastic skin. This signature was also evident in CAFs from skin as well as mammary and pancreatic tumors in mice, and in human cancer. Surprisingly, the inflammatory signature was already activated in CAFs isolated from the incipient hyperplastic stage in multistep tumorigenesis. CAFs from this pathway functioned to promote macrophage recruitment, neovascularization and tumor growth in vivo, activities abolished when NF-ÎºB signaling was inhibited. Additionally, we show that normal dermal fibroblasts can be âeducatedâ by carcinoma cells to express pro-inflammatory genes. Experiment Overall Design: We performed expression profiling analysis of dermal fibroblasts sorted from dysplastic skin tissue of K14-HPV16 mice, and from age matched non transgenic controls. This array analysis was repeated in triplicate. Amplified RNA was hybridized to the 430 2.0 Affymetrix mouse genome arrays.

Project description:Carcinoma-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) that express ?-smooth-muscle-actin (?SMA+) contribute to cancer progression, but their precise origin and role in tumorigenesis is not established. Using mouse models of inflammation-induced gastric cancer, we show that at least 20% of CAFs originate from bone marrow and derive from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Surprisingly, we find that ?SMA+ myofibroblasts (MF) are niche cells normally present in bone marrow and increase markedly in the bone marrow and blood during progression to dysplasia. MSC-derived CAFs that are recruited to the dysplastic stomach express IL-6, Wnt5? and BMP4 and show DNA hypomethylation. Bone marrow (BM)-derived CAFs strongly promote tumor growth in organotypic and xenograft models. In addition, CAFs are generated from MSCs and are recruited to distant tumor sites in a TGF-?- and SDF-1?-dependent manner. Carcinogenesis therefore involves the expansion and relocation of normal bone marrow niche cells to the tumor site where they create a new niche to sustain cancer progression. Since resident (non-BM-derived) CAFs could not be cultured and directly compared to BM-derived CAFs, we additionally isolated total RFP(+) gastric CAFs from aSMA-RFP mice with Helicobacter felis-induced dysplasia, and compared them to GFP(+) BM-derived gastric CAFs from mice with H. felis-induced dysplasia mice that had been transplanted with UBC-EGFP bone marrow. The RFP+ CAFs (HF CAF) represent total CAFs (of which only 20% were BM-derived), while the latter represented only BM-derived CAFs (BM CAF). We compared their gene expression using the Illumina array (MouseWG-6v2) directly after FACS sorting. Interestingly, the GFP+ BM-derived CAFs expressed higher levels of inflammatory genes (IL-6, IL-1?, IL-33) and a number of tumor and stem cell associated factors (CCL5, SPP1, Notch3, MMP9, CD47, CXCR4, PARP10,) compared to the total (RFP+) population of gastric CAFs. Comparison of bone marrow-derived GFP-labeled gastric CAFs versus all gastric CAFs.

Project description:The tumor microenvironment strongly influences cancer development, progression and metastasis. The role of carcinoma-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in these processes and their clinical impact has not been studied systematically in non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). We established primary cultures of CAFs and matched normal fibroblasts (NFs) from 15 resected NSCLC. We demonstrate that CAFs have greater ability than NFs to enhance the tumorigenicity of lung cancer cell lines. Microarray gene expression analysis of the 15 matched CAF and NF cell lines identified 46 differentially expressed genes, encoding for proteins that are significantly enriched for extracellular proteins regulated by the TGF-beta signaling pathway. We have identified a subset of 11 genes that formed a prognostic gene expression signature, which was validated in multiple independent NSCLC microarray datasets. Functional annotation using protein-protein interaction analyses of these and published cancer stroma-associated gene expression changes revealed prominent involvement of the focal adhesion and MAPK signalling pathways. Fourteen (30%) of the 46 genes also were differentially expressed in laser-capture micro-dissected corresponding primary tumor stroma compared to the matched normal lung. Six of these 14 genes could be induced by TGF-beta1 in NF. The results establish the prognostic impact of CAF-associated gene expression changes in NSCLC patients.
