Genome-wide genetic and epigenetic dataset of pancreatic acinar cell carcinomas

ABSTRACT: Pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma (ACC) is an aggressive exocrine tumor with largely unknown biology. To identify potential targets for personalized treatment, integrative genome- and epigenome-wide analyses were performed. The results show frequently aberrant DNA methylation, abundant chromosomal amplifications and deletions, and mutational signatures suggesting defective DNA repair. In contrast to pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, no recurrent point mutations are known. The tumor suppressors ID3, ARID1A, APC, and CDKN2A are frequently impaired also on the protein level and thus potentially affect ACC tumorigenesis. Consequently, this work identifies potential novel therapeutic targets in ACC for drugs recently approved for precision cancer therapy.

RNA-seq of wild-type and Utx- or Hnf1a-deficient mouse pancreas

Project description:HNF1A and UTX are putative tumor suppressors in pancreatic cancer. In this study, we have combined mouse genetics, transcriptomics and genome binding studies to link HNF1A and UTX in a molecular mechanism that suppresses pancreatic cancer. In this session, we have determined the transcriptome of HNF1A and UTX in the exocrine pancreas. We show that HNF1A recruits UTX to its genomic targets in pancreatic acinar cells, which results in remodeling of the chromatin landscape and activation of a broad transcriptional program of differentiated acinar cells, which in turn indirectly suppresses tumor suppressor pathways.

Human stem cell-derived pancreatic acini-like and duct-like organoids demonstrate lineage-specific differences to oncogene activation

Project description:The exocrine compartment of the pancreas consisting of ducts and acini makes up most of the pancreatic tissue and is the site of origin for pancreatitis and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Our understanding of the initiation and progression of human PDAC is limited because of challenges associated with maintaining acinar cells in culture. Here we report the commitment of human pluripotent stem cells towards pancreatic duct-like and acini-like organoids that express properties of the neonatal exocrine pancreas. The expression of PDAC-oncogenes KRasG12D or GNASR201C induced cell lineage-specific effects where GNASR201C was more effective in ductal compared to acinar organoids. KRasG12D was more effective in modeling cancer in vivo when expressed in acinar cells and was associated with acinar to ductal metaplastic changes in culture and in vivo. Thus we demonstrate lineage tropism and plasticity in the human exocrine pancreas and identify a renewable source of ductal and acinar epithelia for understanding exocrine development and diseases.

RNA-seq of purified human pancreatic dedifferentiated acinar cells and duct cells

Project description:Pancreatic acinar cells can dedifferentiate upon tissue injury and acquire ductal characteristics. This acquisition of duct cell features is critical in tumor development. Nevertheless, duct cells themselves are less prone for development of PDAC (pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma) than dedifferentiated acini. We aimed to clarify which genes are unique for dedifferentiated acini. Mixed exocrine preparations of acinar and duct cells were obtained from human pancreatic donor organs and cultured to induce dedifferentiation. We lineage-labeled and FACS-purified these human dedifferentiated acinar cells and compared them to duct cells from the same donor (n=5).

Transcriptional Profile Of Human Pancreatic Acinar Ductal Metaplasia

Project description:Aberrant acinar to ductal metaplasia (ADM), one of the earliest events involved in exocrine pancreatic cancer development, is typically studied using pancreata from transgenic mouse models. We used primary, human pancreatic acinar cells to evaluate the transcriptional profile during the course of ADM.

HNF1A, UTX, H3K27me3 and H3K27ac ChIP-seq in wild-type and UTX- or HNF1A-deficient mouse pancreas

Project description:HNF1A and UTX are putative tumor suppressors in pancreatic cancer. In this study, we have combined mouse genetics, transcriptomics and genome binding studies to link HNF1A and UTX in a molecular mechanism that suppresses pancreatic cancer. In this session, we have profiled UTX, HNF1A, H3K27me3 and H3K27ac in normal and UTX- or HNF1A-deficient mouse pancreas by ChIP-seq experiments. We show that HNF1A recruits UTX to its genomic targets in pancreatic acinar cells, which results in remodeling of the chromatin landscape and activation of a broad transcriptional program of differentiated acinar cells, which in turn indirectly suppresses tumor suppressor pathways.

Gene expression profiling of mouse pancreatic tumors derived from acinar or ductal cells

Project description:Acinar and ductal cells are the major epithelial cell types in the exocrine pancreas, but which of these serves as the cell-of-origin in human PDAC has been debated. Our mouse models have demonstrated that oncogenic Kras expression and Trp53 loss in pancreatic acinar or ductal cells can lead to pancreatic cancer. Here, we performed gene expression profiling of bulk acinar cell-derived and ductal cell-derived mouse pancreatic tumors to identify the transcriptomic profiles.

Comprehensive sequence-based DNA methylation analysis suggests that PanIN lesions are acinar-derived and epigenetically primed for carcinogenesis

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is believed to arise from the accumulation of a series of somatic mutations and is also frequently associated with pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN) lesions. However, there is still debate as to whether the cell-type-of-origin of PanINs and PDACs is acinar or ductal. As cell type identity is maintained epigenetically, DNA methylation changes during pancreatic neoplasia can provide a compelling perspective to examine this question, but DNA methylation sequencing has not yet been performed genome-wide on purified exocrine and neoplastic cell types in the pancreas. Thus, we performed genome-wide DNA methylation sequencing on acini, non-neoplastic ducts, PanIN lesions, and PDAC lesions. We found that: 1) both global methylation profiles and block DMRs clearly implicate an acinar origin for PanINs; 2) at the gene level, PanIN lesions exhibit an intermediate acinar-ductal phenotype resembling acinar-to-ductal metaplasia (ADM); and 3) PanINs are epigenetically primed to progress to PDAC. Thus, epigenomic analysis complements histopathology to define molecular progression toward PDAC.

A single cell atlas of the murine pancreatic ductal tree identifies novel cell populations with potential implications in pancreas regeneration and exocrine pathogenesis.

Project description:Pancreatic ducts form an intricate network of tubules that secrete bicarbonate and drive acinar secretions into the duodenum. This network is formed by centroacinar cells, terminal, intercalated, intracalated ducts, and the main pancreatic duct. Ductal heterogeneity at the single-cell level has been poorly characterized. Here, we used scRNA-seq to comprehensively characterize mouse ductal heterogeneity at single-cell resolution of the entire ductal epithelium from centroacinar cells to the main duct. Moreover, we used organoid cultures, injury models and pancreatic tumor samples to interrogate the role of novel ductal populations in pancreas regeneration and exocrine pathogenesis. In our study, we have identified the coexistence of 15 ductal populations within the healthy pancreas and characterized their organoid formation capacity and endocrine differentiation potential. Cluster isolation and subsequent culturing let us identify ductal cell populations with high organoid formation capacity and endocrine and exocrine differentiation potential in vitro, including Wnt-responsive-population, ciliated-population and FLRT3+ cells. Moreover, we have characterized the location of these novel ductal populations in healthy pancreas, chronic pancreatitis and tumor samples, hightlihgting a putative role of WNT-responsive, IFN-responsive and EMT-populations in pancreatic exocrine pathogenesis as their expression inceases in chronic pancreatitis and PanIN lesions. In light of our discovery of previously unidentified ductal populations, we unmask the potential roles of specific ductal populations in pancreas regeneration and exocrine pathogenesis.
