Comparison of gene expression in CSCs (tumorspheres) vs non-CSCs (2D adherent condition) from A13A PDAC cell line [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the deadliest and most metastatic cancers in human. PDACs respond poorly to therapies, partly due to cancer stem cells (CSCs) that self-renew, survive chemotherapies, metastasise and replenish the tumor. Factors secreted by tumor cells mediate autocrine/paracrine crosstalk with surrounding cells contributing to the stem cell niche but are still insufficiently characterised. Here we used quantitative SILAC proteomics to identify secreted factors enriched in CSC secretome compared to non-CSCs. Our data uncovered factors that mediate the crosstalk between CSCs and non-CSCs as well as genes mediating the gene expression circuitries regulating CSC proliferation.

Quantitative secretomics identifies ligand-receptor pairs in pancreatic cancer that mediate bidirectional crosstalk between cancer stem cells and nociceptors

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the deadliest and most metastatic cancers in human. PDACs respond poorly to therapies, partly due to cancer stem cells (CSCs) that self-renew, survive chemotherapies, metastasise and replenish the tumour. Factors secreted by tumour cells mediate autocrine/paracrine crosstalk with surrounding cells contributing to the stem cell niche but are still insufficiently characterised. Here we used quantitative SILAC proteomics to identify secreted factors enriched in CSC secretome compared to non-CSCs. Among them were GDF15 and VGF, factors involved in cachexia and pain stimuli. GDF15 and VGF promoted CSC self-renewal and growth through autocrine effects. TGFβ/Activin signalling lowered GDF15 and VGF expression via SMAD2/3-SMAD4-SNON, switching to ATF4-CREB-mediated induction upon cell stress. Co-culture of PDAC-CSCs and hESC-derived neural cells for mimicking cellular crosstalk in PDAC revealed that paracrine signalling via GDF15/VGF promoted nociceptor formation and neurite outgrowth. In turn, Substance P from neurons supported CSC self-renewal, EMT/migration and clonal evolution that was also impacted by SMAD4 genetic status. Lastly, the serum levels of GDF15 and VGF were elevated in PDAC patients suggesting their utility as biomarkers for PDAC detection. Collectively, our data uncovered that cachexia and pain signalling factors mediate the crosstalk between CSCs and nociceptors.

Gene expression profiles of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cell lines differently co-expressing cancer stem cell markers

Project description:Pancreatic cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been described as CD24+/CD44+/EpCAM+ or CD133+ cells. However, no study has determined the co-expression of all of these markers in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Similarly to other combinations of CSC markers, CD24+/ CD44+/EpCAM+/CD133+ phenotype might more accurately identify true pancreatic CSCs. Therefore, we performed a detailed co-expression analysis of CD24, CD44, EpCAM, and CD133 in 3 cell lines derived from primary pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs). Gene expression profiling was applied in order to further investigate the observed differences in proportion of cells that co-expressed CSC markers among the cell lines.

A stromal niche regulate CSCs in Wnt-Met mammary gland tumors

Project description:CSCs may be regulated by extrinsic signals provided by specialized microenvironments, or niches, which sustain CSC expansion. We investigated the role of cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in the regulation of CSCs using a genetically engineered mouse model of basal-like breast cancer driven by combined activation of Wnt/β-catenin and HGF/Met signaling (Wnt-Met mice). We found that CAFs secrete soluble factors that promote the expansion of the population of self-renewing cells that generate mammospheres and enhance the capacity of CSCs to form invasive 3D structures. Using transcriptional profiling, we identified a network of paracrine interactions between CAFs and CSCs that regulate reciprocal functions.

DRG-CSC co-culture tissue engineered model, CSCs monoculture model and DRG monoculture model

Project description:In this study, we constructed a tissue-engineered DRG-CSC (corneal stromal cells) co-cultured model (DS model), a CSC monoculture model (S model), and a DRG monoculture model (D model). Chicken DRGs were extracted from E7-E10 chicken embryo. Human CSCs were extracted in stromal lenticules from small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE). Transcriptional profiling of DRG in the DS model (DS-D), DRG in the D model(D-D), CSCs in the DS model (DS-S), CSCs in the S model (S-S) was analyzed. After 7 days of culture, RNA of each group was extracted.

A Phase I/II Study of Active Immunotherapy With Cancer Stem Cells Vaccine for Colorectal Cancer

Project description:Most studies of cancer stem cells (CSC) involve the inoculation of cells from human tumors into immunosuppressed mice, preventing an assessment on the immunologic interactions and effects of CSCs. In this study, the investigators examined the vaccination effects produced by CSC-enriched populations from histologically distinct murine tumors after their inoculation into different syngeneic immunocompetent hosts. Enriched CSCs were immunogenic and more effective as an antigen source than unselected tumor cells in inducing protective antitumor immunity.Immune sera from CSC-vaccinated hosts contained high levels of IgG which bound to CSCs, resulting in CSC lysis in the presence of complement.CTLs generated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells or splenocytes harvested from CSC-vaccinated hosts were capable of killing CSCs in vitro. Mechanistic investigations established that CSC-primed antibodies and T cells were capable of selective targeting CSCs and conferring anti-tumor immunity.

Gene expression profile of cancer stem cells (CSCs) isolated from wild type (WT) and Sfrp1-/- mice skin squamous cell carcinoma (SCC)

Project description:Sfrp1 is a Wnt inhibitor that is down regulated in various human cancers such as acute myeloid leukaemia, hepatocellular carcinoma, pancreatic, ovarian and breast cancer etc. Our study has shown that the loss of Sfrp1 in mouse skin leads to early tumor initiation with induced skin chemical carcinogenesis. Further, CSCs isolated from the Sfrp1-/- tumors showed increased in vivo tumorigenic potential with enhanced tumor propagating cell (TPC) frequency when injected into NOD/SCID mice. Hence, in order to understand the molecular mechanism involved in CSC regulation in the absence of sfrp1, we have performed microarray analysis on CSCs isolated from mice skin SCC. The data showed upregulation of genes involved in the regulation of tumor aggressiveness, metastasis and stemness in Sfrp1-/- CSCs as compared to WT CSCs. Our study has provided significant contribution to the existing knowledge of Sfrp1 by showing the uncharted role of Sfrp1 in tumor initiation and CSC regulation.

Metastasis and Survival of Breast Cancer Stem Cells Mediated by Cytoskeleton Remodeling and PI3K/mTOR Signaling transcription factors

Project description:Cancer metastasis is a fetal problem that claims life of over 90% of cancer patients. It is hypothesized that cancer stem cells (CSCs) mediate cancer metastasis and such cells are often resistant to chemotherapy. Studying BRCA1 associated cancers, we found that CSCs form fillopodia and protrusions enriching for active forms of ezrin/radixin/moesin proteins and they have a much higher potential to metastasize than non-CSCs. Microarray analysis indicated that many pathways related to cell adhesion, extracellular matrix and cytoskeleton were differentially regulated in CSCs. Although inhibition of cytoskeleton remodeling by cisplatin treatment retarded CSC motility and cancer metastasis, drug resistant cancers eventually emerge containing markedly increased number of CSCs. This event is at least partially attributed to the activation of PI3K/mTOR signaling, and can be significantly inhibited by the treatment of rapamycin. These results provide strong evidence that cytoskeletal rearrangement and PI3K/mTOR signaling play a distinct role in mediating CSC mobility and viability, and blocking of both pathways in CSCs synergistically inhibits primary and metastatic cancer growth in BRCA1 associated tumors. The sorted subpopulations based upon CD24, CD29 expression were used in the microarray analysis that was performed with 3 independent biologic sample sets.

Pregnane X-receptor (PXR/NR1I2) activity is a hallmark of cancer stem cells and drives post-treatment tumor recurrence in colon cancer

Project description:Post-treatment recurrence remains a major clinical challenge in colorectal cancer (CRC), and increasing evidence suggests that Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs) may mediate this process due to their enhanced resistance to conventional therapeutics. We hypothesized that the Pregnane-X receptor (PXR) may drive the chemoresistance of colorectal CSCs.. shRNA-mediated PXR down-regulation was used to analyze the role of PXR on self-renewal in the colorectal cancer cell Line LS174T. Expression and activity of PXR were quantified under conditions that promote Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs) enrichment. Conversely, CSC characterization was performed in cells enriched along their PXR activity level.

Tumorspheres from transformed fibroblasts highlight the great plasticity of differentiated tumorigenic cells

Project description:Tumors are heterogeneous tissues. A subpopulation of cells with stemness features (cancer stem cells: CSCs) has been implicated in tumor maintenance and progression. There is evidence that CSCs can originate from tumor cell dedifferentiation. Here we used in vitro transformed human fibroblasts (cen3tel cells) and the tumorsphere assay to search for and possibly characterize CSCs from differentiated transformed cells. To obtain tumorspheres, cen3tel cells were grown in the absence of serum and in the presence of growth factors. Sphere cells were analysed for the expression of specific genes and their genome wide gene expression profiles relative to cells grown in adhesion were determined by microarray analysis. Cen3tel cells formed spheres showing self-renewal capacity and Sox2 overexpression, suggesting that they contained a subset of cells with CSC-like features. Sphere cells displayed the deregulation of a c-MYC-miR-34a circuitry, likely associated with cell protection from apoptosis. Gene expression profiles of sphere cells revealed an extensive transcriptional reprogramming. Genes upregulated in tumorspheres identified processes related to tumorigenesis and stemness, such as chromatin organization, cholesterol biosynthetic pathway, apoptosis suppression, immunity and defense, interferon mediated immunity and cytokine and chemokine mediated signalling pathway. However, sphere cells were only slightly more tumorigenic in vivo than adherent cells. Our results indicate that tumorigenic cells obtained from differentiated human fibroblasts are highly plastic and can acquire cancer stem cells properties. However, tumorsphere cells are not the main tumorigenic population, highlighting a further level of complexity in tumor heterogeneity.
