Single cell transcriptome landscape of primary and metastatic tumor in colon cancer

ABSTRACT: Colorectal Cancer ranks as the second-leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Recent progress in colon cancer research has vastly expanded our understanding of colon cancer on the cellular and molecular levels and have improved the survival of CRC patients considerably. However, most of these genomic and gene expression profiling were usually characterized by bulk tumor tissue. In order to further understanding colon cancer, knowledge at the single cell level is urgently needed and expected to have clinical utility in cancer treatment. Single-cell transcriptome profiling of tumor tissues allows the characterization of heterogeneous tumor cells with neighbor microenvironment cell components and investigation of underlying mechanism of tumorigenesis and metastasis. Here, we adopt single cell RNA-Seq to colon cancer and analyze 3,585 cells from 6 patients with matching adjacent normal tissues, primary tumors and metastatic tumors. Most of tumor cells exhibit copy number variations and diverse CNV patterns existed. Novel markers have been identified to distinguish tumour from normal cells and even work for cancer cells that did not have CNVs. Compared with adjacent normal tissue, the number of stem cell and Paneth cell increased and the surrounding cancer-association cells like immune cells in microenvironment increased in tumour region. Moreover, the interaction of tumour cell and microenvironment cells have been elaborated. Our results demonstrate that colon cancer transcriptome has a wide range of intratumoral heterogeneity, which is shaped by tumor cells and cancer associated cells in the surrounding microenvironment.

Tumor Intrinsic Subtype is Reflected in Cancer-Adjacent Benign Tissue

Project description:Introduction: Overall survival of early-stage breast cancer (BC) patients is similar for those who undergo breast conserving therapy (BCT) and mastectomy, however, 10-15% of women undergoing BCT suffer ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence. The risk of recurrence may vary with age or breast cancer subtype. Understanding the gene expression of the cancer-adjacent tissue and/or stromal response to specific tumor subtypes is important for developing clinical strategies to reduce recurrence risk. Methods: We studied gene expression data in cancer-adjacent tissue from 158 BC patients. Complementary in vitro cocultures were used to study cell-cell communication between fibroblasts and specific breast cancer subtypes. Results: Our results suggest that intrinsic tumor subtypes are reflected in histologically normal cancer-adjacent tissue. Gene expression of cancer-adjacent tissues shows that triple negative (Claudin-low or Basal-like tumors) exhibit increased expression of genes involved in inflammation and immune response. While such changes could reflect distinct immune populations present in the microenvironment of different breast cancer subtypes, altered immune response gene expression was also observed in cocultures in the absence of immune cell infiltrates, emphasizing that these inflammatory mediators are secreted by breast-specific cells. In addition, while triple negative BCs are associated with upregulated immune response genes, Luminal breast cancers are more commonly associated with estrogen-response in adjacent tissues. Conclusions: Specific characteristics of BCs are reflected in the surrounding benign tissue. This commonality between tumor and surrounding tissue may underlie second primaries and local recurrences. Biomarkers derived from cancer-adjacent tissue may be helpful in defining personalized surgical strategies or in predicting recurrence risk. reference x sample

A comprehensive transcriptome portrait of colorectal cancer derived organoid at single cell levels (Bulk RNA-seq)

Project description:Due to the highly heterogeneous nature of tumor, it is very challenging to study the molecular mechanisms of tumorigenesis. Recently, in vitro derived 3D organoid culture system were developed and may serves as a good model for studing the cancer molecular mechanisms in vitro, which allows long-term expansion of human colorectal colon cancer.To fully evaluate the organoid culture system, we perform a single cell RNA-seq survey of 4,792 single cells of tumor and adjacent normal tissues in vivo as well as corresponding patient-derived organoid samples from seven patients with colon cancer to investigate their gene expression signatures. We also apply whole-exon sequencing, whole genome sequencing and Sanger sequencing to characterize their genomic features accordingly. We found that tumor-derived organoid in vitro in general faithfully maintained the gene expression signatures, gene regulatory network, tumor-microenvironment cross-talk, as well as mutations such as copy number variants and point mutations of tumor cells in vivo. However adjacent normal tissue-derived organoid, despite remaining normal in genomic levels, changed their gene expression profiles drastically and acquired tumor-like gene expression signatures.

Personalized Neoantigen Cancer Vaccine in Glioblastoma Multiforme

Project description:<p>Neoantigens, which are derived from tumour-specific protein-coding mutations, are exempt from central tolerance, can generate robust immune responses and can function as bona fide antigens that facilitate tumour rejection. We demonstrated that a strategy that uses multi-epitope, personalized neoantigen vaccination, which has previously been tested in patients with high-risk melanoma, is feasible for tumours such as glioblastoma, which typically have a relatively low mutation load and an immunologically ‘cold’ tumour microenvironment. Here we conducted whole-exome sequencing of tumor and normal cells from individual patients with glioblastoma to identify tumor-specific mutations. We assessed the expression of mutated alleles by RNA-sequencing of tumor. We used personalized neoantigen-targeting vaccines to immunize patients newly diagnosed with glioblastoma following surgical resection and conventional radiotherapy in a phase I/Ib study. Patients who did not receive dexamethasone-a highly potent corticosteroid that is frequently prescribed to treat cerebral oedema in patients with glioblastoma-generated circulating polyfunctional neoantigen-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses that were enriched in a memory phenotype and showed an increase in the number of tumour-infiltrating T cells. Using single-cell T cell receptor analysis, we provide evidence that neoantigen-specific T cells from the peripheral blood can migrate into an intracranial glioblastoma tumour. Neoantigen-targeting vaccines thus have the potential to favourably alter the immune milieu of glioblastoma.</p>

iTRAQ analysis of colorectal cancer suggests the pathway of valine, leucine and isoleucine degradation is inactivation

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is currently the third in cancer incidence worldwide and the fourth most common cause of cancer deaths. To discover the proteins related to colon cancer, a typical inflammation-related C57B/6N mouse colon carcinogenesis model was developed using azoxymethane-dextran sodium sulfate (AOM-DSS) treated for 14 weeks. iTRAQ-based proteomics study was performed using cell membrane components enriched from colonic mucosa. Tumor tissues and their adjacent normal colon tissues from colonic cancer patients were collected for differential protein detection and metabolomics studies. Totally, 74 differentially expressed proteins were identified in the AOM/DSS treated tumor samples compared with AOM/DSS treated adjacent samples, and the saline treated control. Bioinformatics analysis showed that eight downregulated proteins were enriched in the pathway of valine, leucine and isoleucine degradation. Targeted metabolomics study showed that valine, leucine and isoleucine was upregulated in tumor tissues compared with their adjacent normal tissues from colonic cancer patients. Further real-time PCR and western blot experiments showed that the signal pathway proteins of Hadh and ALDH2 were downregulated in colon patients (colon tumor tissues vs their adjacent colon tissues), as well as in AOM/DSS treated mouse model. In all, our study showed that the pathway of valine, leucine and isoleucine degradation was inactivation in colon cancer, and Hadh and ALDH2 were two potential biomarkers for colon cancer treatment.

Differential Expression of miRNAs: Implication in Colon Cancer Racial Health Disparity

Project description:We have demonstrated that the miR-182 level, in addition to being significantly increased in colon cancer compared to adjacent normal colon tissue, is also significantly increased in African American(AA) compared to Caucasian American (CA) colon cancer. Since miR-182 has been previously associated with decreased survival in colon cancer patients and with increased liver metastases, this observation supports the concept that biological differences between AA and CA colon cancers may contribute to AA disparities in colon cancer survival. We aimed to identify miRNAs that were associated with effects of both tumor and race by generating Agilent miRNA expression profiles on paired colon cancer and adjacent normal colon collected from AA and CA colon cancer subjects. For the 30 paired Stony Brook University (SBU) colon cancer and adjacent normal colon samples, attempts were made to control for other covariates such as age, colon cancer location, stage, BMI and smoking in the selection of the CA samples . However no attempt was made to control for the other covariates in the 30 paired Washington University (WU) colon cancer and adjacent normal colon samples.
