Project description:Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is a rare pediatric brain tumor with a median survival of 10-15 months. Histone H3 is mutated in 80% of DIPGs, dictating tumor location, onset, and outcome. Therapeutic resistance remains a major obstacle to preventing tumor recurrence and is in part driven by cancer stem cells (CSCs), which exhibit self-renewal properties and tumorigenic potential. In previous studies, we have identified these proliferative and tumorigenic features in aldehyde dehydrogenase positive (ALDH+) CSCs in H3K27M mutant DIPG. We hypothesize that ALDH-mediated cancer stemness and resistance may in part be driven by H3K27M. Histone H3 K27 acetylation was assayed by chromatin immunoprecipitation and sequencing (ChIP-seq).

Project description:Recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) has a poor prognosis with less than 1-year median survival. Platinum-based chemotherapy (cisplatin or carboplatin) remains the first-line treatment for HNSCC. The cancer stem cell (CSC) hypothesis postulates that tumors are maintained by a self-renewing CSC population that is also capable of differentiating into non-self renewing cell populations that constitute the bulk of the tumor. A small population of CSCs exists within HNSCC that are relatively resistant to chemotherapy and clinically predicted to mediate tumor recurrence. These CSCs are identified by high cell-surface expression of CD44 and high intracellular activity of aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) and termed ALDHhighCD44high. We investigated the molecular pathways active in ALDHhighCD44high cells, which remain poorly studied. Additionally, we performed a molecular examination of cisplatin-resistant ALDHhighCD44high cells, which has not been reported. Two HNSCC cell lines, UM-SCC-1 and UM-SCC-22b, were utilized in this study. For microarray analysis, UM-SCC-22b cells were treated for 5 days in vitro with 2uM cisplatin and analyzed by flow cytometry, sorted and submitted for microarray analysis of ALDHhighCD44high and ALDHlowCD44low cells from untreated and cisplatin treated cells. Four separate flow cytometry experiments were performed using Affymetrix Human Gene ST 2.1 microarrays. Microarray data was analyzed using R/Bioconductor. Files were preprocessed by Robust Multiarray Average (RMA) with background substraction, quantile normalization, and median polish (oligo package). Data was fitted with robust probe level linear models to all the probesets (oligo package). Experiment and processing batch differences were accounted for using 'ComBat' within the SVA package. Differentially expressed genes were identified using univariate comparisons after fitting data to a linear model (limma package). Initial statistics were determined using an empirical Bayesian model. Multiple testing comparisons were adjusted using Benjamini and Hochberg (aka FDR). Probes with an adjusted p-value <0.05 were considered statistically significant. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering with complete linkage and Euclidean distance was performed on only statistically significant probes. In four separate experiments, the head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cell line UM-SCC-22b were cultured for 5 days with or without 2uM (micromolar) cisplatin in 6-well plates. Media was replaced every other day. Control and cisplatin treated cells were trypsinized, procesed, and stained for CD44 cell-surface expression and intracellular aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity to identify cancer stem cells (ALDH+CD44+). CSCs and non-CSCs (ALDH-CD44-) were collected by flow cytometry from both groups. Total RNA was collected from each fraction (ALDH+CD44+, ALDH-CD44-), treatment (control, cisplatin), and experiment (#1-4). A total of 16 samples were analyzed. One set of 4 (experiment #4) were analyzed on a Human Gene ST 2.1 strip and the rest on a Human Gene ST 2.1 plate. Differential gene expression was determined with R/Bioconductor with Robust Multiarray Average (RMA) and fitting the data to linear models (limma). Experimental and processing batch effects were accounted for using ComBat. Four sets of univariate comparisons were made: 1) Cisplatin ALDH+CD44+ vs Control ALDH+CD44+; 2) Control ALDH+CD44+ vs Control ALDH-CD44-; 3) Cisplatin ALDH+CD44+ vs Cisplatin ALDH-CD44-; 4) Cisplatin ALDH-CD44- vs Control ALDH-CD44-. Multiple testing comparisons were adjusted using Benjamini and Hochberg (aka FDR). Probes with an adjusted p-value <0.05 were considered statistically significant.

Project description:Understanding the cancer stem-cell (CSC) landscape in diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is desperately needed to address treatment resistance and identify novel therapeutic approaches. Patient derived DIPG cells demonstrated heterogeneous expression of aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) and CD133 by flow cytometry. Transcriptome-level characterization identified elevated mRNA levels of MYC, E2F, DNA damage repair (DDR) genes, glycolytic metabolism and mTOR signaling in ALDH+ compared to ALDH- supporting a stem-like phenotype and indicating a druggable target. ALDH+ cells demonstrated increased proliferation and neurosphere formation and initiated tumors that resulted in decreased survival when orthotopically implanted. Pharmacological MAPK/PI3K/mTOR targeting downregulated MYC, E2F and DDR mRNAs and reduced glycolytic metabolism. In vivo PI3K/mTOR targeting inhibited tumor growth in both flank and an ALDH+ orthotopic tumor model likely by reducing cancer stemness. Characterization of DIPG CSCs coupled with targeting MAPK/PI3K/mTOR signaling provides an impetus for molecularly targeted therapy aimed at addressing the CSC phenotype in DIPG.

Project description:Elevated aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity correlates with poor outcome for many solid tumors as ALDHs potentially regulate cell proliferation and chemoresistance of cancer stem cells (CSCs). ALDH1A3 is the dominant isomer of the ALDH gene family in Mesenchymal subtype of GSC cells and is highly upregulated compared to other subtype of GSCs. ALDH1A3 is an important enzyme in the synthesis of Retinoic Acid, which regulates various downstream pathways and the transcription of numerous genes. Microarray analysis of the GSCs before or after depletion of ALDH1A3 provides important information to determine the genes regulated by ALDH1A3 in the mesenchymal subtype of GSCs. We used microarrays to analyze the transcriptome change after the depletion of ALDH1A3 in GSC-326 cells that express very high levels of ALDH1A3.

Project description:Elevated aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity correlates with poor outcome for many solid tumors as ALDHs potentially regulate cell proliferation and chemoresistance of cancer stem cells (CSCs). Accordingly, potent and selective inhibitors of key ALDHs may represent a novel CSC-directed treatment paradigm for ALDH+ cancer types. Of the many ALDH isoforms, we and others have implicated the elevated expression of ALDH1A3 in mesenchymal glioma stem cells (MES GSCs) as a target for the development of novel therapeutics. To this end, we used our structure of human ALDH1A3 combined with in silico modeling to identify a selective, active-site inhibitor of ALDH1A3. The lead compound, MCI-INI-3, is a selective competitive inhibitor of human ALDH1A3 and shows poor inhibitory effect on the structurally related isoform ALDH1A1. Mass spectrometry-based cellular thermal shift analysis revealed that ALDH1A3 is the primary binding protein for MCI-INI-3 in MES GSC lysates. The inhibitory effect of MCI-INI-3 on retinoic acid biosynthesis is comparable with that of ALDH1A3 knockout, suggesting that effective inhibition of ALDH1A3 is achieved with MCI-INI-3. Further development is warranted to characterize the role of ALDH1A3 and retinoic acid biosynthesis in glioma stem cell growth and differentiation.

Project description:Ascites syndrome (AS) is a metabolic disorder that mainly occurs at later ages of meat-type chickens. Despite many research, there is no consensus about the origin of this syndrome. Our main purpose were to investigate the syndrome using both phenotypic and RNA-Seq data to elucidate the most causative factors predisposing the birds to AS. Phenotypic data analysis showed that AS indicator traits (AITs) were moderate to high heritable. Inexistence of consistent direct genetic correlation between AITs and growth related traits (GRTs), indicated that neither faster growth rate nor heavier body weight is the most causative factor affecting the susceptibility of broilers to AS. However, respiratory capacity was revealed to be the most probable factor predisposing the birds to AS, as both lung weight and lung percentage were negatively correlated with AITs. Transcriptomic data analysis revealed 125 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the ascitic and healthy groups. Up-regulated genes in ascitic group enriched mainly in gas transport biological process, while down-regulated genes involved in defense response to bacteria, biological adhesion, cell adhesion, killing of cells of another organism and cell division. Genetic association of the DEGs with human cardiovascular diseases suggested an excessive heart problems of the ascitic chicks. Heart is, probably, the first tissue suffering from the incompetence of small respiratory system of the AS-susceptible chickens. In other word, tissue hypoxia, that cause free radicals to concentrate in heart cells, may be the commencement of events that finally result to heart failure, suffocation and death of chicks due to the AS.

Project description:Recent studies revealed that treatment resistant cancer stem-like cells (CSCs)/cancer-initiating cells (CICs) can be targeted by cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). CTLs recognize antigenic peptide derived from tumor-associated antigens (TAAs), thus identification of tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) expressed in CSCs/CICs is essential. Human leucocyte antigen (HLA) ligandome analysis using mass spectrometry enables analysis of naturally expressed antigenic peptides; however, HLA ligandome analysis requires large scale of sample and it is challenging for CSCs/CICs. In this study, we established novel bladder CSC/CIC model from a bladder cancer cell line UM-UC-3 cells using ALDEFLUOR assay. CSCs/CICs were isolated as aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) high cells and several ALDHhigh clone cells were established. ALDHhigh clone cells were enriched with CSCs/CICs by sphere formation and tumorigenicity in immune deficient mouse. HLA ligandome analysis and gene expression (CAGE) using ALDHhigh clone cells revealed distinctive antigenic peptide repertoire in bladder CSCs/CICs, and we identified GRIK2 derived antigenic peptide is specifically expressed in CSCs/CICs. GRIK2 peptide-specific CTL clone recognized GRIK2-overexpressed UM-UC-3 cells and ALDHhigh clone cells indicating that GRIK2 peptide can be a novel target for bladder CSCs/CICs-targeting immunotherapy.

Therapeutic resistance remains a major obstacle to preventing tumor recurrence and is in part driven by cancer stem cells (CSCs), which exhibit self-renewal properties and tumorigenic potential.

We hypothesize that ALDH-mediated cancer stemness and resistance may in part be driven by H3K27M. ALDH1A3 expression was reduced in CRISPR-edited DIPG cells (SU-DIPG-XIII) where the H3K27M mutation had been removed (H3K27M-KO). Furthermore, these gained differentiation characteristics and lost their neurosphere-forming potential. The parental (H3K27M) and H3K27M-KO cells were also subjected to ionizing radiation to identify genes responsible for radioresistance in histone-mutated DIPG radioresistance. Nascent transcriptomes were obtained from these cells using bromouridine labeling and capture followed by sequencing (Bru-seq).
