Project description:Increasing evidence points to an active stromal involvement in cancer initiation and progression. Cytokines derived from tumor cells are believed to modulate stromal cells to produce growth and angiogenic factors which in turn provide the tumor with the necessary microenvironment for expansion and invasion. Transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) has been implicated as a candidate cytokine to mediate this communication. However, how its signaling in stromal cells regulates tumorigenesis and tumor progression remains unresolved. We show that normal, pre-senescent fibroblasts or prostate stromal cells cotransplanted with prostate carcinoma cells subcutaneously into nude mice reduced tumor latency and accelerated tumor growth. When their TGFβ signaling was blocked, the fibroblasts and stromal cells still stimulated tumor initiation, but no longer supported tumor growth as control cells did. The loss of the tumor growth-promoting activity of the stromal cells with attenuated TGFβ signaling was not associated with altered cellular senescence or tumor angiogenicity. TGFβ and the medium conditioned by the prostate carcinoma cells stimulated myofibroblast differentiation of the intact stromal cells, but not the stromal cells with attenuated TGFβ signaling. Gene microarray and quantitative RTPCR analyses showed that TGFβ upregulated a host of genes in stromal cells that are involved in tissue remodeling and wound healing. Thus, our study provides evidence for TGFβ as a supporting agent in tumor progression through the induction of a perpetual wound healing process in the tumor microenvironment.

Project description:Purpose: Validate the cell type specific (Epithelial, Endothelial, and Stromal) transcriptome profile between prostate primary tissue xenografts and of fresh prostate tissue. Nude-Fox1nu mice were castrated and silastic tubing containing dry testosterone (T) was inserted providing “humanized” levels of circulating T. 5-8 pieces of fresh human prostate tissue was then inserted subcutaneously along the flank of the animal. After 30 days the animal was euthanized and tissue was harvested. Tissue from xenograft and from fresh human prostate was then enriched into endothelial, epithelial and the remaining stromal compartments using magnetic bead enrichment. RNA-Seq was then preformed on cell types from both origins and the results compared to show the primary tissue xenograft model faithfully recapitulates transcriptomic profile of the human prostate for epithelial, endothelial and stromal cell types.

Project description:Purpose: Examine the cell type specific (Epithelial, Endothelial, and Stromal) transcriptome profile between prostate primary tissue xenografts of prostate tissue tumor tissue and uninvolved tissue (named non-tumor hereafter) in response testosterone (T) deprivation. Additional cell type specific untreated fresh tissue from both tumor and non-tumor samples is included for additional validation. Related samples previously uploaded to GEO are found under accession number GSE145641. Method: Nude-Fox1nu mice were castrated and silastic tubing containing dry T was inserted providing “humanized” levels of circulating T. 5-8 pieces of fresh human prostate tissue was then inserted subcutaneously along the flank of the animal. For samples not subjected to T-deprivation, after 30 days the animal was euthanized, and tissue was harvested. For samples undergoing T-deprivation, after 30 days with humanized circulating T levels, T-deprivation was performed by surgical removal of silastic tubing after which serum T levels dropped below the level of detection within 24 hours. Samples were then harvested at Pre T-deprivation time point, an early T-deprivation time point (3-days) or late T-deprivation timepoint (15-17 days) post-surgery. Tissue from fresh human prostate or tissue from xenograft and was then enriched into endothelial, epithelial and the remaining stromal compartments using magnetic bead enrichment. RNA-Seq was then preformed on cell types from both origins and the results compared to determine the cell type specific effects of T-deprivation on the human prostate transcriptome.

Project description:The prostate stroma is a key mediator of epithelial differentiation and development, and potentially plays a role in the initiation and progression of prostate cancer. Isolation and characterization of viable populations of the constituent cell types of prostate tumors could provide valuable insight into the biology of cancer. The CD90+ stromal fibromuscular cells from tumor specimens were isolated by cell-sorting and analyzed by DNA microarray. Dataset analysis was used to compare gene expression between normal and tumor-associated reactive stromal cells. Reactive stroma is characterized by smooth muscle differentiation, prostate down-regulation of SPOCK3, MSMB, CXCL13, and PAGE4, bladder down-regulation of TRPA1, HSD17B2, IL24, and SALL1, and an up-regulation of CXC-chemokines. This study identified a group of differentially expressed genes in CD90+ reactive stromal cells that are potentially involved in organ development and smooth muscle cell differentiation. Experiment Overall Design: A total of 15 arrays were run for the following sample types obtained from 10 patients: Experiment Overall Design: 2 CD90+ prostate tumor-associated stromal: Experiment Overall Design: Patient 1: CP_Str_08-028_CD90posi Experiment Overall Design: Patient 2: 08-032_CP_strom_CD90posi Experiment Overall Design: 2 CD13+ normal bladder stromal: Experiment Overall Design: Patient 3: 06-125_NB_CD13posi Experiment Overall Design: Patient 4: 06-070_NB_str_CD13posi Experiment Overall Design: 1 CD13+ bladder tumor-associated stromal: Experiment Overall Design: Patient 5: 07-008_CB_str_CD13posi Experiment Overall Design: 5 whole tissue prostate cancer and 5 normal tissue from matched pairs: Experiment Overall Design: Patient 6: 05-206_CaP, 05-206_NP Experiment Overall Design: Patient 7: 05-213_CaP, 05-213_NP Experiment Overall Design: Patient 8: 05-214_CaP, 05-214_NP Experiment Overall Design: Patient 9: 05-218_CaP, 05-218_NP Experiment Overall Design: Patient 10: 05-220_CaP, 05-220_NP Experiment Overall Design: Additionally, 8 arrays were run for the following sample types obtained from 7 patients: Experiment Overall Design: 5 CD49a+ normal prostate stromal (PMID 16638148): Experiment Overall Design: Patient 1: CD49a_01-26-04 Experiment Overall Design: Patient 2: CD49a_03-23-04 Experiment Overall Design: Patient 3: CD49a_03-04-04 Experiment Overall Design: Patient 4: CD49a-1_06-02-04 Experiment Overall Design: Patient 5: CD49a-4_06-02-04 Experiment Overall Design: 3 CD26+ prostate cancer (2 biological replicates, 1 sample run twice): Experiment Overall Design: Patient 6: 05-179_CD26t Experiment Overall Design: Patient 6: 05-179_CD26t_2 Experiment Overall Design: Patient 7: 08-032_CP_epi_CD26posi Experiment Overall Design: The following two prostate cancer samples were also included in the analyses: Experiment Overall Design: CD26+ cancer cell, replicate 1 Experiment Overall Design: CD26+ cancer cell, replicate 2 Experiment Overall Design: The tissue samples consisted of prostate tissue specimens obtained from patients undergoing radical prostatectomy under approval by the University of Washington Institutional Review Board. The same approach was used for both cancer-free and cancer-enriched (where at least 85% of the cells in the corresponding frozen section were of cancer) samples. To obtain bladder stromal cells for analysis, tissue specimens were obtained from cystoprostatectomy surgeries. For cell sorting, the collected specimens were processed within hours. Cell types were sorted using monoclonal antibodies specific for tumor-associated prostate stromal cells (CD90), tumor-associated bladder stromal cells (CD13) and normal bladder stromal cells (CD13) with MACS.

Project description:The prostate represents a complex mix of cell types and there is a need to analyze distinct cell populations to better understand their potential interactions. This study of cell-type specific gene expression patterns will contribute to understanding of how tumor epithelial cells may be affected by adjacent interstitial stromal cells within the tumor microenvirnonment. LCM and microarray analysis were used to identify gene expression patterns in prostate cancer epithelial and interstitial stromal cell populations. More than 500 genes whose expression levels were significantly different in epithelial cells versus adjacent stromal tissue were identified. Several chemokines and growth factors were more highly expressed in prostate cancer stromal cells while several transcription factors and receptors were more highly expressed in epithelial cells. Five micron serial sections from three different intermediate grade prostate tumors were provided. One section from each had been stained by hematoxylin and eosin and the tumor areas marked for identification. To obtain RNA from 2 different tissue types (glandular epithelium and interstitial stroma) tumor areas observed to have abundant cells of interest were identified. Tumor epithelium and adjacent stromal tissue were collected separately from each slide. We sought to obtain similar populations of cells of each tissue type, so to that end, we examined each slide and and marked areas to direct the laser capture. Approximately 1,000 cells were captured per cap and RNA was extracted and hybridized to Affymetrix microarrays as recommended by manufacturer.

Project description:The heterogeneity of the prostate stromal cells is widely appreciated but the functional implication remains incompletely understood. Using genetic lineage tracing and light-sheet imaging, we show that some fibroblast cells near the junction of the mouse proximal prostatic ducts and prostatic urethra highly express Lgr5. Genetic ablation of these anatomically restricted stromal cells, but not nonselective ablation of prostatic stromal cells, rapidly induces prostate epithelial turnover and dedifferentiation that are reversed following spontaneous restoration of the Lgr5+ stromal cells. These changes are not mediated via endocrine or nervous regulation but can be phenocopied by physical disruption of prostatic lumen integrity. RNA-Seq analysis implies that ablating the Lgr5+ stromal cells activates a mechanosensory response, which is supported by increased prostate tissue stiffness and activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). Suppressing MAPK overrides the increased epithelial proliferation. This study demonstrates that the Lgr5+ stromal cells regulate tissue homeostasis in a long-distance manner by maintaining anatomic integrity and implies that the cells near the transitional regions between organs likely control organ homeostasis by sustaining a balanced mechanoforce.
