Project description:Recent studies have highlighted the role of sub-clones in tumors. Lymph nodes are generally the first location of metastasis for most solid epithelial tumors including Colorectal cancer (CRC). We sought to understand the genetic origin of lymph node metastasis in CRC by evaluating the relationship between CRC tumor sub-clones and lymph nodes.

Project description:To obtain more information about the lymph node metastasis of breast cancer cells, we selected the matched positive lymph nodes (PL), and negative lymph nodes (NL) of the same patient to perform integrated analysis. The PL, NL samples were analysed with single-cell ATAC sequencing.

Project description:Evolution of melanoma from a primary tumor to widespread metastasis is crucially dependent on lymphatic spread. The mechanisms regulating the initial step in metastatic dissemination via regional lymph nodes remain largely unknown. We have previously described a dysfunctional immune profile that precedes evidence of metastasis in the first node draining from the primary tumor, the sentinel lymph node (SLN). Herein, we explore the role of melanoma-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) as mediators of this pre-metastatic niche through cargo-specific polarization of dendritic cells (DCs). Utilizing mass cytometry, pre-metastatic SLNs demonstrate compromised co-stimulatory CD80 expression compared to healthy lymph nodes. Similarly, DCs matured in vitro in the presence of melanoma EVs showed impaired co-stimulation and polarization towards a chronic inflammatory cytokine milieu. Profiling of melanoma EV cargo identified shared proteomic and RNA signatures including the signaling axis S100A8, S100A9 and cognate receptor TLR4. Mechanistically, S100A8 and S100A9 compromised DC maturation, a phenotype which was partially recovered following TLR4 blockade. Early evidence demonstrates similar EVs can be isolated from human afferent lymphatic fluid ex vivo. Taken together, we propose synergistic interactions among melanoma EV cargo are responsible for suppressing DC maturation, potentially explaining the survival of malignant melanocytes metastasizing into seemingly “normal” regional lymph nodes.

Project description:To obtain more information about the lymph node metastasis of breast cancer cells, we selected the matched primary breast cancer (PC), positive lymph nodes (PL), and negative lymph nodes (NL) of the same patient to perform integrated analysis. The PC, PL, NL samples were analysed with single-cell RNA sequencing.

Project description:Skin melanomas are highly aggressive and metastatic. Omomyc is the best MYC inhibitor currently available. We analysed the effect of Omomyc expression in a transgenic and inducible (upon Doxycycline addition) manner in spontaneous lymph node metastases from SkMel147 (mutated in NRAS) melanoma cells in vivo. We used microarrays to detail the change in the gene expression programs induced by Omomyc on day 2.

Project description:Expression data from 4T1 subclones derived from mammary fat pad tumors (MFP), axillary lymph node tumors (AxLN), and axillary lymph node-derived lung metastases (AxLN-LuM). In parallel, expression data, in the same subclones, of tail vein-derived (TV) lung metastases. The mechanism of how lymph node metastases seed distant metastases is unknown. We used the 4T1 breast cancer cell line, which is an immune competent model of triple negative breast cancer and spontaneously metastasizes in balb/c mice. 4T1-GFP/fLuc cells were injected into MFP to form tumors and 4T1-mCherry/rLuc cells were injected into axillary lymph nodes to form tumors and then allowed to metastasize to lung. TV cells were allowed to metastasize in the lung. Cells were harvested at different time intervals after the injection. Tumors were extracted, dissociated, and then expanded in vitro to obtain MFP, AxLN, AxLN-LuM and TV-LuM subclones isolated after different time lags with respect to the injection.

Project description:Lymph node metastasis is a poor prognosis indicator in esophageal cancer. Although tumor spreading currently forms the main basis for therapy selection, the molecular mechanisms underlying the metastatic pathway remain insufficiently understood. Several studies aimed to investigate these mechanisms but focused mainly on regulatory patterns in the tumors themselves and/or the invaded lymph nodes. To date no study has yet investigated the potential changes on transcription level, which take place within the yet non-invaded niche. Here we provide a comprehensive description of these regulations in patients. In this study the transcriptomic profiles of regional lymph nodes were determined for two patient groups: patients classified as pN1 (metastasis) or pN0 (no metastasis) respectively. All investigated lymph nodes, also those from pN1 patients, were still free of metastasis. The gene expression data was obtained via microarray analysis. Top candidates were validated via PCR and immunohistochemistry. The results show that regional lymph nodes of pN1 patients differ decisively from those of pN0 patients – even before metastasis has taken place. In the pN0 group distinct immune response patterns were observed. In contrast, lymph nodes of the pN1 group exhibited a clear profile of reduced immune response and reduced proliferation, but increased apoptosis, enhanced hypoplasia and morphological conversion processes. DKK1 was the most significant gene associated with the molecular mechanisms taking place in lymph nodes of patients suffering from metastasis (pN1). We assume that the two molecular profiles observed constitute two different stages of a progressive disease. Finally we suggest that DKK1 might play an important role within the mechanisms leading to lymph node metastasis. First, samples were classified according to the principal status of the patients exhibiting (pN1 group) or non-exhibiting (pN0 group) metastasis in regional lymph nodes. The comparison of pN1 and pN0 patients should highlight the general differences in regulations that might lead to or prevent from metastasis. Second, two lymph node samples were collected from each patient, one node located close to the tumor (regional) and the second node distant to the tumor. While the distant nodes served as reference sample the regional nodes were investigated for transcriptional regulations. Key to the work presented here is that all nodes investigated were made sure to be still metastasis free, independent of the patients’ pN1/pN0 classification and of the location relative to the tumor. This should allow the identification of early changes occurring prior to metastasis homing.

Project description:Lymph node metastases (LNM) and primary tumour samples were analysed using desorption electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry imaging (DESI MSI). Current assessment of LNM depends on subjective histopathological assessment, whereas analysis by DESI MSI permits an entirely objective assessment. The mass spectral data revealed specific lipidomic patterns across samples, which were shown to correspond to the immunohistochemical image. Statistical prediction of LNM samples was performed using the esophageal adenocarcinoma samples with sensitivity and specificity of 89.5% and 100%, respectively.

Project description:We performed an expression profiling study of 168 primary breast tumors, lymph node metastases, and autopsy samples of primary breast tumours and metastases to liver, chest wall, lymph node, lung, and spleen, as well as positive and negative RNA controls, with technical replicates, to assess quality control methodology and probe-level reproducibility of the Illumina DASL microarray assay. The experiment included both Illumina DASL HumanRef-v3 and DASL HT-12; this series includes only the 120 HumanRef-v3 samples . This series includes 120 samples in total: 19 autopsy tissues of the chest wall, liver, lymph nodes, lung, spleen, liver, and breast, 5 negative controls, 6 positive controls, and 90 lymph node metastases.
