Tumour Cell Heterogeneity Instructs Fibroblast Diversity and Reciprocal Signalling [dataset 1]


ABSTRACT: We investigated changes to gene expression in 8 murine pancreatic tumour sub-clones response to co-culture with fibroblasts. Tumours are complex ecosystems where phenotypically diverse tumour cells are embedded in a heterocellular environment. Using an in vitro model of intra-tumoral heterogeneity, we show that clonal tumour cell populations establish distinct interactions with stromal fibroblasts to expand phenotypic diversity across tumour and stromal cell populations. Heterocellular interactions drive differential engagement of tumour cell reciprocal signalling pathways, resulting in normalisation of cell-autonomous differences in MAPK signalling but diversification of AKT signalling. Consequently, tumour cell clones display differential cell-autonomous and non-cell autonomous dependencies. These results demonstrate that tumour-stroma interactions amplify tumour cell autonomous diversity and that our existing perspective on tumour cell heterogeneity underestimates functional diversity.
