Project description:To define the cellular characteristics of malignant ascites of advanced gastric cancer patients and search for therapeutic strategies, we applied single cell RNA sequencing to cancer cells and tumor associated macrophages (TAM), present in large numbers in malignant ascites. We analyzed 180 cells from 4 malignant ascites and 1 cerebrospinal fluid metastasis. The results indicate that the anti-inflammatory characteristics of the tumor associated macrophages are concocted by the tumor cells. By constructing reference transcriptomes for M1 and M2 type macrophages, we found a strong non-inflammatory property of macrophages recovered from the malignant ascites of gastric cancer.

Project description:Although gastric cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths, systemic treatment strategies remain scarce. Here, we report the pro-tumorigenic properties of the crosstalk between intestinal tuft cells and type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) that is evolutionarily optimized for epithelial remodeling in response to helminth infection. We demonstrate that tuft cell-derived interleukin 25 (IL25) drives ILC2 activation, inducing the release of IL13 and promoting tuft cell hyperplasia. This reciprocal tuft cell - ILC2 circuit promotes early gastric metaplasia and tumor formation while genetic ablation of tuft cells, ILC2s or therapeutic targeting of IL13 or IL25 alleviates these phenotypes. Importantly, tuft cell and ILC2 gene signatures predict worsening survival in intestinal-type gastric cancer patients, with ~50% of these tumors showing enrichment for tuft cells and ILC2s. Thus, we reveal an unanticipated function of the tuft cell - ILC2 circuit in promoting multiple steps towards gastric carcinogenesis. Together, this may provide an opportunity to therapeutically inhibit early-stage gastric cancer through repurposing antibody-mediated therapies.

Project description:To sum up our results, we managed to isolate a reproducible SP cell fraction of human gastric carcinoma cell lines for the first time. Those cells differed from the rest of the population regarding morphology and biological behaviour. They had the ability to build a population resembling the basic tumor population and therefore performed differenziation and asymmetric cell division. SP cells expressed potential stem cell markers like musashi 1 and Cd133 and also showed a high expression of genes that encode for stem cell properties. The so identified phenotypic and genetic factors showed a variable expression in tumor samples of patient series and might be applicable as prognostic factors in the diagnosis of gastric carcinoma. Aims: The side population (SP) of tumor cell lines shares characteristics with tumor stem cells. In this study we phenotypically and genotypically characterized the SP of gastric cancer cell lines. Methods: The SP was obtained from MKN45- and AGS-gastric cancer cells using Hoechst 33342 staining and fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS). SP cells were subsequently studied morphologically (cytology, immunocytochemistry), on the transcriptional level (gene array) and in cell culture (recultivation assays). Genes differentially expressed in the SP cells were finally searched by immunohistochemistry in neoplastic and non-neoplastic gastric tissue from gastric cancer patients. Results: The SP was reproducibly obtained from gastric cancer cell lines. The SP cells were smaller and rounder then non-SP cells. SP cells self-renewed in re-cultivation experiments and differentiated into SP- and non-SP cells. Re-cultivated SP- and non-SP cells showed distinct phenotypes in culture regarding cell shape and colony-formation. SP cells had increased levels of the stem cell markers CD133 and Musashi 1. Transcriptional analyses demonstrated that SP cells express genes that encode for stem cell properties like FZD7, HEY1, SMO and ADAM17. Finally we detected the transcripts of these genes in tissue samples from patients with gastric cancer. Conclusions: Human gastric cancer cell lines enclose a phenotypically and genotypically distinct cell population with tumor stem cell features. Phenotypical characteristics of this distinct cell population are also present in gastric cancer tissue.

Project description:Regions of recurrent genomic amplification and deletion are frequently observed in primary gastric cancers (GC). However, identifying specific oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes within these regions can be challenging, as they often cover tens to hundreds of genes. Here, we combined high-resolution array-based comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) with gene expression profiling to target genes lying within focal high-level amplifications in GC cell lines, and identified RAB23 as an amplified and overexpressed Chr 6p11p12 gene in Hs746T cells. High RAB23 protein expression was also observed in some lines lacking RAB23 amplification, suggesting additional mechanisms besides gene amplification for up-regulating RAB23. siRNA silencing of RAB23 reduced the invasive potential of both amplified and nonamplified GC cell lines. RAB23 gene amplifications were observed in 13% of primary gastric carcinomas. In two independent patient cohorts, RAB23 transcript and protein expression was significantly associated with diffuse-type gastric cancer (dGC) compared to intestinal-type gastric cancer (iGC), providing further evidence that dGC and iGC likely represent two molecularly distinct tumor types. Our study demonstrates that investigating focal chromosomal amplifications by combining highresolution aCGH with expression profiling is a powerful general strategy for identifying novel cancer genes in recurrent regions of chromosomal aberration.

Project description:Gastric adenocarcinoma is one of the major malignancies worldwide. Gastric cell lines have been widely used as the model to study the genetics, pharmacology and biochemistry of gastric cancers. Here we describe a comprehensive survey of the gene expression profiles of 12 gastric carcinoma cell lines, using cDNA microarray with 43 000 clones. For comparison, we also explored the gene expression patterns of 15 cell lines derived from lymphoid, endothelial, stromal and other epithelial cancers. Expression levels of specific genes were validated through comparison to protein expression by immunohistochemistry using cell block arrays. We found sets of genes whose expression corresponds to the molecular signature of each cell type. In the gastric cancer cell lines, apart from genes that are highly expressed corresponding to their common epithelial origin from the gastrointestinal tract, we found marked heterogeneity among the gene expression patterns of these cell lines. Some of the heterogeneity may reflect their underlying molecular characteristics or specific differentiation program. Two putative gastric carcinoma cell lines were found to be B-cell lymphoma, and another one had no epithelial specific gene expression and hence was of doubtful epithelial origin. These cell lines should no longer be used in gastric carcinoma research. In conclusion, our gene expression database can serve as a powerful resource for the study of gastric cancer using these cell lines Set of arrays organized by shared biological context, such as organism, tumors types, processes, etc. Using regression correlation
