Modeling diverse genetic subtypes of lung adenocarcinoma with a next-generation alveolar type 2 organoid platform [2D and 3D]

ABSTRACT: Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), the most common histological subtype, accounts for 40% of all cases. While existing genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs) recapitulate the histological progression and transcriptional evolution of human LUAD, they are time-consuming and technically demanding. In contrast, cell line transplant models are fast and flexible, but these models fail to capture the full spectrum of disease progression. Organoid technologies provide a means to create next-generation cancer models that integrate the most advantageous features of autochthonous and transplant-based systems. However, robust and faithful LUAD organoid platforms are currently lacking. Here, we describe optimized conditions to continuously expand murine alveolar type 2 cells (AT2), a prominent cell-of-origin for LUAD, in organoid culture. These organoids display canonical features of AT2 cells, including marker gene expression, the presence of lamellar bodies, and an ability to differentiate into the AT1 lineage. We used this system to develop flexible and versatile immunocompetent organoid-based models of KRAS, BRAF, and ALK-mutant LUAD. Notably, organoid-based tumors display extensive burden and complete penetrance, and are histopathologically indistinguishable from their autochthonous counterparts. Altogether, this organoid platform is a powerful, versatile new model system to study LUAD.

Club cells employ regeneration mechanisms during lung tumorigenesis

Project description:Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is one of the deadliest malignancies worldwide. Dynamic lineage changes within the lung epithelium and the high plasticity of these epithelial cells confound the correct identification of the cell-of-origin of LUAD. Here, we combined lineage-tracing mouse models with an autochthonous cell type-independent LUAD model in order to discover the cellular origin of ALK-translocated LUAD. We identified Club and AT2 cells as the cells-of-origin of LUAD. Moreover, we uncovered epigenetic imprints in the tumours originating from Club or AT2 cells by whole-genome bisulfite sequencing. Single-cell transcriptomes of Club cells at different stages of tumour development identified two trajectories of Club cell evolution. On both routes, tumours lose their Club cell identity and gain an AT2-like phenotype. Together, this study highlights the role of Club cells in LUAD initiation and unveils key mechanisms conferring LUAD heterogeneity.

Alveolar differentiation drives resistance to KRAS inhibition in lung adenocarcinoma [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), commonly driven by KRAS mutations, is responsible for 7% of all cancer mortality. The first allele-specific KRAS inhibitors were recently approved in LUAD, but clinical benefit is limited by intrinsic and acquired resistance. LUAD predominantly arises from alveolar type 2 (AT2) cells, which function as facultative alveolar stem cells by self-renewing and replacing alveolar type 1 (AT1) cells. Using genetically engineered mouse models, patient-derived xenografts, and patient samples we found inhibition of KRAS promotes transition to a quiescent AT1-like cancer cell state in LUAD tumors. Similarly, suppressing Kras induced AT1 differentiation of wild-type AT2 cells upon lung injury. The AT1-like LUAD cells exhibited high growth and differentiation potential upon treatment cessation, whereas ablation of the AT1-like cells robustly improved treatment response to KRAS inhibitors. Our results uncover an unexpected role for KRAS in promoting intra-tumoral heterogeneity and suggest targeting alveolar differentiation may augment KRAS-targeted therapies in LUAD.

Klf5 promotes alveolar epithelial type 1 cell lineage commitment during lung development and regeneration

Project description:Alveolar epithelial cell fate decisions drive lung development and regeneration. Using transcriptomic and epigenetic profiling coupled with genetic mouse and organoid models, we identified Klf5 as a critical regulator of alveolar epithelial cell fate across the lifespan. During prenatal lung development and alveologenesis, Klf5 enforces alveolar epithelial type 1 (AT1) cell lineage fidelity. While it is dispensable for both adult AT1 and alveolar epithelial type 2 (AT2) cell homeostasis, Klf5 regulates AT2 cell plasticity after injury. Klf5 represses AT2 cell proliferation and enhances AT2-AT1 cell differentiation in a spatially restricted manner in both infectious and non-infectious models of acute respiratory distress syndrome. Moreover, ex vivo organoid assays reveal that Klf5 modulates AT2 cell fate decisions through reducing AT2 cell sensitivity to inflammatory signaling. These data highlight a major transcriptional regulator of AT1 cell lineage commitment and of the AT2 cell response to inflammatory crosstalk during lung regeneration.

Stat3-Bdnf-TrkB axis promotes alveolar regeneration [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Regenerating new alveolar epithelium is essential for recovery from many lung diseases. This multi-cellular regenerative process occurs when type II alveolar pneumocytes (AT2), with support from mesenchymal niche cells, proliferate to generate more AT2 cells and transdifferentiate in type I pneumocytes. To elucidate how coordinated events between AT2 cells and mesenchyme restore alveolar epithelium we used unbiased genome-wide analysis of chromatin accessibility and gene expression in both cell types following acute lung injury. We observed that chromatin acessability in AT2 cells changes signficantly following acute lung injury. Newly accessible chromatin reveals new STAT3 binding motifs adjacent to genes that regulate essential regenerative pathways in AT2 cells. Restoration of alveolar structures following both sterile and infectious lung injuries was inhibited when STAT3 signaling was lost in AT2 cells. Single-cell transcriptome analysis of regenerating AT2 cells identified brain neurotrophic factor (Bdnf) as the sole STAT3 target gene whose chromatin becomes newly accessible in a regenerating population of AT2 cells. BDNF increased alveolar organoid size and forming efficiency in murine and human models. The receptor for BDNF, TrkB, is uniquely? expressed on mesenchymal alveolar niche cells (MANC). Exposure of BDNF to TrkB increases expression of fibroblast growth factor 7 (Fgf7), an essential regenerative cytokine, in MANCs. Blocking Bdnf signaling with a TrkB receptor antagonist abrogated murine and human alveolar organoid formation. Finally, a small molecule TrkB agonist improved functional and histological outcomes in vivo following sterile and infectious lung injuries. Collectively, these data highlight the biological and therapeutic importance of the Stat3-Bdnf-TrkB axis in orchestrating alveolar epithelial regeneration

Lineage-specific intolerance to oncogenic drivers restricts histological transformation [scRNA-Seq]

Project description:Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC) are thought to originate from different epithelial cell types in the lung. Intriguingly, LUAD can histologically transform into SCLC following treatment with targeted therapies. Here we designed models to follow the conversion of LUAD to SCLC and found the barrier to histological transformation converges on tolerance to Myc, which we implicate as a lineage-specific driver of the pulmonary neuroendocrine cell. Histological transformations are frequently accompanied by activation of the Akt pathway. Manipulating this pathway permitted tolerance to Myc as an oncogenic driver, producing rare, stem-like cells, transcriptionally resembling the pulmonary basal lineage. These findings suggest histological transformation may require the plasticity inherent to the basal stem cell, enabling tolerance to previously incompatible oncogenic driver programs.
