Distinct SOX signature determines neuroblastoma origin and predicts clinical outcome

ABSTRACT: Multimodality treatment of high-risk neuroblastoma can be effective, but up to 50% of children experience recurrent disease with fatal outcome. Extensive genetic intratumoral heterogeneity and diverse clinical outcomes pose therapeutic challenges in treating children affected by this aggressive disease. Several hypotheses have been proposed to explain the heterogeneity of neuroblastoma, including a possible origin from multipotent neural crest stem cells (NCSCs). Utilizing an in vivo mouse genetics approach, we demonstrate that lineage-restricted sympathoadrenal (SA) progenitors and not NCSCs are the cellular origin of neuroblastoma. Human neuroblastoma tissue is composed of two spatially juxtaposed cell types, neuroblasts and Schwann cells, both cell types derive from neural crest (NC) lineage. This composition mimics the architecture of sympathetic ganglions (SG) as well as of adrenal medulla at the late stage of neural crest (NC) development. Similarly to SG, SOX10 is restricted to Schwannian cells and is not present in tumorigenic neuroblasts. Transcriptional landscape of Sox genes can serve as paradigmatic model for stage identification along NC lineage development. While early multipotent NCSCs are characterized by the expression of Sox9/Sox10 transcription factors (TF), committed SA progenitor identity is defined by the presence of Sox4/Sox11 TFs. Molecularly, we show that the core transcriptional network that orchestrate neuroblastoma maintenance is highly reminiscent of the SA progenitors. Taken together, the data presented here show that neuroblastoma cells functionally resemble the committed SA progenitors, while lacking specific stem cell program.

Generation of CNS neural stem cells and PNS derivatives from neural crest derived peripheral stem cells [Dataset 2]

Project description:Neural crest-derived neural stem cells (NCSCs) from the embryonic PNS can be reprogrammed in neurosphere culture (NS) to rNCSCs that produce CNS progeny, including myelinating oligodendrocytes. Using global gene expression analysis we now demonstrate that rNCSCs completely lose their previous PNS characteristics and acquire the identity of neural stem cells derived from embryonic spinal cord (SCSCs). Reprogramming proceeds rapidly and results in a homogenous population of Olig2-, Sox3- and Lex-positive CNS stem cells. Low-level expression of pluripotency inducing genes Oct4, Nanog and Klf4 argues against a transient pluripotent state during reprogramming. The acquisition of CNS properties is prevented in the presence of BMP4 (BMP NCSCs) as shown by marker gene expression and the potential to produce PNS neurons and glia. In addition, genes characteristic for mesenchymal and perivascular progenitors are expressed, which suggests that BMP NCSCs are directed towards a pericyte progenitor/mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) fate. Adult NCSCs from mouse palate, an easily accessible source of adult NCSCs, display strikingly similar properties. They do not generate cells with CNS characteristics but lose the neural crest markers Sox10 and p75 and produce MSCs. These findings show that embryonic NCSCs acquire a full CNS identity in neurosphere culture. In contrast, MSCs are generated from adult pNCSCs and BMP NCSCs, which reveals that postmigratory NCSCs are a source for MSCs up to the adult stage. Affymetrix Mouse 430_2 arrays were used to compare the gene expression profiles of embryonic DRG-derived reprogrammed NCSCs and adult NCSCs from mouse palate.

Ablation of SOX10 impaired the differentiation and migration potential of neural crest derived from human pluripotent stem cells

Project description:Here, control human pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) and SOX10 knockout (SOX10 KO) hiPSCs were induced to differentiate to neural crest stem cells (NCSCs). We sequenced mRNA samples of differentiated cells at day 7 during NCSC differentiation to generate the gene expression profiles of these cells.

Retinoic acid-free spheroid culture condition is suitable for growth of TH-MYCN neuroblasts

Project description:It has been already reported that there are undifferentiated/proliferating neuroblasts in the postnatal sympathetic ganglia in TH-MYCN mice. Given the fact that neuroblastoma is derived from sympathoadrenal progenitors which are originated from neural crest stem cells, we attempted to use the well-established culture condition that has been utilized to maintain derivatives of neural crest stem cells. However, the medium contained retinoic acid (RA) which is known to induce neuroblastoma differentiation and is used in clinical treatment against high-risk patients. In the present study, the medium with RA (RA (+) medium) and without RA (RA (-) medium) were compared. Since undifferentiated neuroblasts are observable at one of the sympathetic ganglia, superior mesenteric ganglion (SMG), in 3-week-old TH-MYCN hemizygote (TH-MYCN+/-) mice with 129+Ter/SvJcl mice background, we dissected and dissociated the SMG to prepare single cells. These cells were cultured in either RA (+) or RA (-) media. Spheres formed in either RA (+) or RA (-) medium were subjected to microarray analysis.

11q deletion or ALK activity curbs DLG2 expression to maintain an undifferentiated state in neuroblastoma.

Project description:High-risk 11q deleted neuroblastomas (NBs) typically display an undifferentiated/poorly differentiated morphology. NB is thought to develop from Schwann cell precursors (SCPs) and un-differentiated neural crest derived cells (NCC). It is therefore vital to understand the mechanisms involved in the block of differentiation. We showed that an important and novel role for oncogenic ALK-ERK1/2-SP1 signaling may be the maintenance of an undifferentiated state of transformed NC-derived progenitors that is achieved by repression of DLG2, a tumor suppressor in NB. DLG2 is expressed in the ‘bridge signature’ that represents the transcriptional transition state when neural crest cells or Schwann Cell Precursors (SCP) become chromaffin cells of the adrenal gland. The importance of SP1 and DLG2 in this process is highlighted by our findings that restoring DLG2 expression spontaneously drives NB differentiation. Further, genetic analysis of high-risk 11q deletion NB patient identified genetic lesions in the DLG2 gene, Our data also suggest that further exploration of other ‘bridge genes’ may help to better understand the mechanisms underlying the differentiation of NC-derived progenitors and their contribution to NB.

RNA-seq transcriptomic analysis of mouse sympathetic neuroblasts and adrenal chromaffin cells

Project description:Adrenal chromaffin cells and sympathetic neuron are derived from neural crest precursors and both cell types can give rise to childhood cancer, neuroblastoma. However only limited is known about the mechanism of their development. Better understanding of their transcriptomic profiles during development could gives an insight into the cell fates acquisition as well as the origin of neuroblastoma. Yellow fluorescent protein expressing sympathetic neuroblasts and adrenal chromaffin cells were isolated from E12.5 TH-IRES-Cre;ROSA26-EYFP mouse embryos by fluorescence-activated cell sorting. Transcriptomic profiles of sympathetic neuroblasts and adrenal chromaffin cells from embryonic age (E)12.5 TH-IRES-Cre;ROSA26-EYFP mice were generated by RNA sequencing, in four paired biological replicates.

Expression profiles of the four human major ectodermal lineages

Project description:Here we report a chemically defined strategy to derive the entire human ectoderm from pluripotent stem cells. Using reporter lines for various lineages of the ectoderm, the expression profiles generated were: PAX6+ neuroectoderm (NE), SOX10+ neural crest (NC), SIX1+ cranial placodes (CP). The non-neural ectoderm (NNE) samples did not have a reporter associated, but was quality controlled for the expression of TFAP2A positive, SIX1 and SOX10 negative to proceed with the sequencing. We observe a clear demarcation between the NE versus the non-neural ectoderm lineages (NC, CP and NNE) accompanied by specific expression patterns for the different lineages. The cells with potential to become neurons can be further differentiated to become functional.
