Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related mortality among adults in developed countries. The discovery of the most common genetic alterations as well as the development of organoids models’ of pancreatic cancer has provided insight into the fundamental pathways driving tumour progression from a normal cell, to non-invasive precursor lesion, to widely metastatic disease, offering new opportunities for identifying the key driver of cancer evolution. Obesity is one of the most serious public health challenges of the 21st century. Several epidemiological studies have shown the positive association between obesity and cancer-related morbidity/mortality, as well as poor prognosis and poorer treatment outcome. Despite strong evidence indicates a link between obesity and cancer incidence, the molecular basis of the initiating events remains largely elusive. This is mainly due to the lack of an accurate and reliable model of pancreatic carcinogenesis that mimics human obesity-associated PDAC, making data interpretation difficult and often confusing. Here we propose a suitable and manageable preclinical tool, organoids-based, to study the effects of obesity on pancreatic carcinogenesis. Therefore, we tracked the effects of obesity on the natural evolution of PDAC in a genetically defined transplantable model of the syngeneic murine pancreatic preneoplastic lesion (mP) and tumour (mT) derived-organoids that recapitulates the progression of human disease from early preinvasive lesions to metastatic disease. Our results suggest that organoid-derived transplants in obese mice represent a suitable system to study early steps of pancreatic carcinogenesis and support the hypothesis that inflammation induced by obesity stimulates tumour progression and metastatization during pancreatic carcinogenesis.

Project description:MicroRNA (miRNA) expression profiles have been described in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), but these have not been compared with premalignant lesions. We wished to identify miRNA expression profiles in pancreatic cystic tumors with low malignant potential (serous microcystic adenomas) and high malignant potential (mucinous cystadenoma and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN)) and compare these to PDAC and carcinoma-ex-IPMN (CEI). n= 20 samples Benign Pancreatic Cystic Tumour (n=7 Microcystic, n= 6 Mucinous, n= 7 IPMN) were compared with n= 9 samples of carcinoma ex IPMN and n= 14 samples of pancreatic cancer (adenocarcinoma) for known homo sapiens miRNAs (mirbase 13).

Project description:Depletion of Zeb1 in a KPC-model for pancreatic cancer affected strongly the formation of precursor lesions, tumour grading, invasion and notably metastasis during PDAC progression. In this context, EMT is important for metastasis, but there is variability and specificity (and not redundancy) in the role and function of different EMT-inducing transcription factors.

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells undergo epithelial mesenchymal transdifferentiation (EMT) in adaption to environmental cues, including inflammation, a process that combines tumour cell dedifferentiation with dissemination and acquisition of stemness features. However, the mechanisms coupling inflammation-induced signalling pathways with EMT and stemness remain largely unknown. Here, we reveal the inflammation-induced transcription factor NFATc1 as a central regulator of pancreatic cancer cell plasticity.

Project description:In pancreatic cancer, classical and basal-like subtypes are identified as two major PDAC subtypes. Our previous data showed that PDAC tumor cells can switch between the two phenotypes through transcriptional reprogramming particularly in response to inflammatory cues. In this study, we were trying to understand TNFα mediated transcription regulatory network in pancreatic cancer. Hence, we performed RNA-seq in TNFα treated classical cells as well as aqua dest control.

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the deadliest and most metastatic cancers in human. PDACs respond poorly to therapies, partly due to cancer stem cells (CSCs) that self-renew, survive chemotherapies, metastasise and replenish the tumour. Factors secreted by tumour cells mediate autocrine/paracrine crosstalk with surrounding cells contributing to the stem cell niche but are still insufficiently characterised. Here we used quantitative SILAC proteomics to identify secreted factors enriched in CSC secretome compared to non-CSCs. Among them were GDF15 and VGF, factors involved in cachexia and pain stimuli. GDF15 and VGF promoted CSC self-renewal and growth through autocrine effects. TGFβ/Activin signalling lowered GDF15 and VGF expression via SMAD2/3-SMAD4-SNON, switching to ATF4-CREB-mediated induction upon cell stress. Co-culture of PDAC-CSCs and hESC-derived neural cells for mimicking cellular crosstalk in PDAC revealed that paracrine signalling via GDF15/VGF promoted nociceptor formation and neurite outgrowth. In turn, Substance P from neurons supported CSC self-renewal, EMT/migration and clonal evolution that was also impacted by SMAD4 genetic status. Lastly, the serum levels of GDF15 and VGF were elevated in PDAC patients suggesting their utility as biomarkers for PDAC detection. Collectively, our data uncovered that cachexia and pain signalling factors mediate the crosstalk between CSCs and nociceptors.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Therapy resistance remains one of the major challenges to improve the prognosis of patients with pancreatic cancer. Chemoresistant cells, which potentially also display cancer stem cell (CSC) characteristics, can be isolated using the side population (SP) technique. Our aim was to search for a SP in human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and to examine its chemoresistance and CSC phenotype. RESULTS: A SP was identified in all PDAC samples, expanded and analyzed as first-generation xenografts. This SP was more resistant to gemcitabine than the other tumour cells as analyzed in vivo. Whole-genome expression profiling of the SP revealed upregulation of genes related to therapy resistance, apoptotic regulation and epithelial-mesenchymal transition. In addition, the SP displayed higher tumourigenic (CSC) activity than the other main tumour cell population (MP) as analyzed in vitro by sphere-forming capacity. CONCLUSION: We identified a SP in human PDAC and uncovered a chemoresistant and CSC-associated phenotype. This SP may represent a new therapeutic target in pancreatic cancer. Micro-array analysis was performed on SP and MP samples of 5 xenografts, grown from 5 different human PDAC samples.
