Loss of Apc impairs Lgr5+ intestinal stem cell fate programs [RRBS]

ABSTRACT: Loss of APC is the main driving alteration associated with colorectal cancer (CRC) development. We investigate the immediate outcome of this genetic event on the transcriptomic and DNA methylation profiles of Lgr5+ intestinal stem cells (ISCs), considered as the cell-of-origin of CRC. RNA-seq analyses show that the sequential deletion of Apc alleles has a rapid impact on the transcriptional profiles of ISCs. Indeed, Apc loss-of-function dictates an altered cell fate program at transcriptional level, resuting in an impaired commitment of those cells to differentiation. Reduced-representation bisufite sequencing (RRBS) on the genomic DNA (gDNA) also shows that focal alterations occur in the DNA methylations profiles of ISCs at this stage, and functionally contribute to altered cell fate in those cells. This study sheds light on the earliest events in CRC development, proving evidences on the role exerted by DNA methylation changes associated with Apc inactivation in the homeostatic rupture at CRC initation.

Apc-mutants act as supercompetitors in intestinal tumour initiation

Project description:Almost all colorectal cancers (CRC) present with mutations in the Apc gene, leading to unrestrained Wnt activation and the initiation of tumour development. We previously reported the competitive benefit of Apc-mutant intestinal stem cells (ISCs) within the crypt, however, the mechanism by which they outcompete their wild type (WT) neighbours remained elusive. Here, we studied the effect of Apc-mutants using an in vitro culture system of WT (Lgr5-CreErt2) and Apc-/- (Lgr5-CreErt2;Apcfl/fl) organoids . The expression patterns of WT and Apc-/- organoids revealed significant upregulation in specific secreted Wnt antagonists Notum, Wif1 and Dkk2. Furthermore, we studied the effect of the secreted antagonist by treating WT organoids with either WT or Apc-/- conditioned medium (CM) for 48 hours and observed a significant decrease in stem cell markers and an increase in goblet cell markers. We report that Apc-mutants act as bona fide supercompetitors by secreting Wnt antagonists that result in active differentiation of WT ISCs.

Transcriptomic analysis of APC knockdown in proliferating primary myoblasts

Project description:APC is a key regulator of canonical Wnt signalling since it participates to beta-catenin targeting to proteasomal degradation when the pathway is inactive. Moreover, independently of Wnt signaling, APC regulates several cellular functions such as mycrotubule dynamics, chromosome segregation, cell adhesion. Although APC has been widely studied for its implication in initation and progression of several cancers, its role in satellite cells (skeletal muscle stem cells) has never been investigated. Here we used microarrays and to clarify APC functions and we identified several pathways and cellular processes to be affected following APC silencing.

Gene expression data of APC-mutated colorectal cancer patient-derived cells treated with tankyrase inhibitors

Project description:Tankyrase, a poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase family member, regulates multiple cellular processes. Tankyrase inhibitors efficiently suppress APC-mutated colorectal cancer (CRC) cell proliferation. To examine the mechanism of anti-proliferative effect of tankyrase inhibitors (G007LK and RK582), we analyzed gene expression profiles of patient-derived APC-mutated CRC cells (JC21 and JC475) left untreated or treated with 0.3 µM G007LK or RK582 for 24 h by cDNA microarray analysis.

Impact of preoperative antibiotics on integrated microbiome-host transcriptomic data generated from colorectal cancer resections.

Project description:Integrative multi-omic approaches have been increasingly applied to discovery and functional studies of complex human diseases. Short-term preoperative antibiotics have been adopted to reduce site infections in colorectal cancer (CRC) resections. We hypothesize that the antibiotics will impact analysis of multi-omic datasets generated from resection samples to investigate biological CRC risk factors. To assess the impact of preoperative antibiotics on integrated microbiome and human transcriptomic data generated from archived frozen CRC resection samples. Genomic DNA (gDNA) and RNA were extracted from 51 pairs of frozen sporadic CRC tumor and adjacent non-tumor mucosal samples from 50 CRC patients archived at a single medical center. 16S rRNA gene sequencing (V3V4 region, paired end (PE), 300 bp) and confirmatory quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assays were conducted on gDNA. RNA sequencing IPE, 125bp) was performed on parallel tumor and non-tumor RNA samples with RNA Integrity Numbers (RIN) scores ≥ 6.

GEMM CRC collection analysis

Project description:A collection of genetically engineered mouse models (GEMM) of colorectal cancer (CRC) were created, and primary tumors from these GEMMs were analyzed. Primary CRC tumors from these GEMMs were genotyped to confirm that they contain the core genetic lesions of interest, including APC, P53, KRAS, and BRAF. Primary tumors from GEMMs with combinations of lesions of interest were analyzed by whole genome expression, and their expression profiles were compared to determine how they segregate. Signatures were then generated from GEMM tumors of interest and compared to human clinical datasets with expression and outcome data. Primary tumors from CRC GEMMs with different combinations of mutant alleles of interested were generated and analyzed. Alleles include mutant forms of APC (A), P53 (P), KRAS (K) and BRAF (B).

Apc restoration promotes cellular differentiation and reestablishes crypt homeostasis in colorectal cancer

Project description:The Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (APC) tumor suppressor is mutated in the vast majority of human colorectal cancers (CRC) and leads to deregulated Wnt signaling. To determine whether Apc disruption is required for tumor maintenance, we developed a mouse model of CRC whereby Apc can be conditionally suppressed using a doxycycline-regulated shRNA. Apc suppression produces adenomas in both the small intestine and colon that, in the presence of Kras and p53 mutations, can progress to invasive carcinoma. In established tumors, Apc restoration drives rapid and widespread tumor-cell differentiation and sustained regression without relapse. Tumor regression is accompanied by the re-establishment of normal crypt-villus homeostasis, such that once aberrantly proliferating cells reacquire self-renewal and multi-lineage differentiation capability. Our study reveals that CRC cells can revert to functioning normal cells given appropriate signals, and provide compelling in vivo validation of the Wnt pathway as a therapeutic target for treatment of CRC Analysis of RNA isolated from colon polyps that presented in shAPC or shAPC/Kras mice as compared to shRenilla (neutral) mouse colon mucosa

A Prognostic Role of APC in Colorectal Cancers

Project description:<p>Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a highly heterogeneous disease, for which prognosis has been relegated to clinic-pathologic staging for decades. There is a need to molecularly stratify subpopulations of CRC to better predict outcome and assign therapies. Here we report targeted exome sequencing of 1,321 cancer-related genes on 468 tumor specimens, which identified a subset of 17 genes that best classify CRC, with APC (Gene ID: 324) playing a central role in predicting overall survival. APC may assume 0, 1, or 2 truncating mutations, each with a striking differential impact on survival. Tumors lacking any APC mutation carry a worse prognosis than single APC mutation tumors, but tumors with two APC mutations and KRAS (Gene ID: 3845) and TP53 (Gene ID: 7157) mutations confer the poorest survival among all the subgroups examined. Our study demonstrates a substantial prognostic role for APC and suggests that sequencing of APC may have clinical utility in the routine staging and potential therapeutic assignment for CRC.</p>

USP7 is a tumor-specific WNT activator for APC-mutated colorectal cancer by mediating B-catenin deu

Project description:The tumor suppressor gene adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) is mutated in most colorectal cancers (CRC) resulting in constitutive Wnt activation. To understand the Wnt-activating mechanism of APC mutation, we applied CRISPR/Cas9 technology to engineer various APC-truncated isogenic lines. We find that the β-catenin inhibitory domain (CID) in APC represents the threshold for pathological levels of Wnt activation and tumor transformation. Mechanistically, CID-deleted APC truncation promotes β-catenin deubiquitination through reverse binding of β-TrCP and USP7 to the destruction complex. USP7 depletion in APC-mutated CRC inhibits Wnt activation by restoring β-catenin ubiquitination, drives differentiation and suppresses xenograft tumor growth. Finally, the Wnt-activating role of USP7 is specific to APC mutations, thus can be used as tumor-specific therapeutic target for most CRCs.
