IL-17 links the tumor suppressor LKB1 to gastrointestinal inflammation and polyposis

ABSTRACT: Loss-of-function mutations in the tumor suppressor liver kinase B1 (LKB1) promote the development of Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome (PJS), a chronic disease characterized by the development of gastrointestinal (GI) polyps. Treatment options for patients are extremely limited due to a poor understanding of how LKB1 mutations lead to the development of GI polyps. Here, we reveal a role for CREB-regulated transcription coactivator 2 (CRTC2) signaling in the regulation of inflammatory potential in LKB1 mutant T cells. We also demonstrate that targeting CRTC2 and pathogenic T helper 17 (Th17) cells reduces GI polyp growth in LKB1 mutant mice. Our data reveal a critical role for CRTC2 in LKB1-mediated T cell inflammatory responses that we hypothesize predisposes PJS patients harboring LKB1 mutations to GI polyp development.

scRNA-seq for stromal Lkb1 deficiency-induced gastrointestinal polyps

Project description:Numerous studies have showed that mesenchymal-specific Lkb1 is sufficient for the development of PJS-like polyps in mice. However, the cellular origin and component of these Lkb1-associated polyps and underlying mechanisms remain elusive. In this present study, we generated tamoxifen-inducible Lkb1flox/flox;Myh11-Cre/ERT2 mice and performed scRNA-seq to investigate the cellular complexity of gastrointestinal polyps associated with PJS.

Stromal myofibroblasts drive tumorigenesis in Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome polyposis models

Project description:Germline mutations in LKB1 predispose to hereditary Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome (PJS), manifesting with gastrointestinal polyposis. We discovered that conditional deletion of Lkb1 in stromal fibroblasts using Fsp1-Cre leads to expansion of stromal cells and gastrointestinal polyposis in mice. Here we have investigated gene expression signatures in the Fsp1-Cre;Lkb1fl/fl mouse polyps harbouring bi-allelic deletion of Lkb1 in stromal cells together with wild-type epithelium. We provide RNA-seq gene expression data of 6 polyps, 4 adjacent gastric mucosa samples and 5 wild-type gastric mucosa samples from littermate controls. Our experiment demonstrates e.g. activated cytokine signaling and inflammatory pathways in the polyps.

Transcription profiling of mouse mammary tumors from animals which have exons 4-7 of the Lkb1 gene deleted

Project description:Heterozygous germ-line mutations in the LKB1 (STK11) gene cause Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS), an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by hamartomatous polyposis of the gastrointestinal tract and an increased risk of colorectal, breast, ovarian, testicular and cervical cancer. To model the effects of LKB1 mutation in mammary tumourigenesis, we have used a conditional gene targeting strategy to generate a mouse in which exons 4-7 of the Lkb1 gene encoding the kinase domain of the protein are deleted specifically in the mammary gland. Mammary gland tumours arise in these mice with a latency of 46-85 weeks and occur in the thoracic or inguinal glands. These mammary gland tumours were characterised as Grade 2 invasive ductal carcinomas or solid papillary carcinomas and resemble those arising in PJS patients. This mouse model of Lkb1 deficiency provides a potentially useful tool to investigate the role of Lkb1 in tumourigenesis and to guide the development of therapeutic approaches

Methylation profiling by array of a solitary Peutz-Jeghers colon polyp in a healthy individual

Project description:Colon polyps represent precursor lesions of colon cancers and their malignant potential varies according to histological subtype. A rare subtype of colon polyps is the Peutz-Jeghers (PJ) polyp. PJ polyps mostly occur in the context of Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome which is characterized by the development of multiple polyps in the intestinal tract and hyperpigmentation of oral mucosa and lips. Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by germline mutations of the Serine Threonin Kinase STK11 (LKB1). PJ polyps very rarely occur outside of Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome and are then referred to as solitary PJ polyps. Contrary to Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome, the genetic basis and the malignant potential of solitary PJ polyps is currently unknown. To date, only one study described a sporadic PJ polyp finding no mutations of STK11, indicating that the molecular profile of solitary PJ polyps differs from Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. Methylome analysis revealed global hypomethylation and CpG island hypermethylation, two features that have been described as hallmarks of the colorectal cancer epigenome. These results provide a paradigm for a premalignant lesion that is defined by epigenetic changes.

LKB1/STK11 Inactivation Leads to Expansion of Pro-Metastatic Tumor Sub-Population in Melanoma

Project description:Germline mutations in LKB1 (STK11) are associated with the Peutz–Jeghers syndrome (PJS), which includes aberrant mucocutaneous pigmentation, and somatic LKB1 mutations occur in 10% of cutaneous melanoma. By somatically inactivating Lkb1 with K-Ras activation (+/- p53 loss) in murine melanocytes, we observed variably pigmented and highly metastatic melanoma with 100% penetrance. LKB1 deficiency resulted in increased phosphorylation of the SRC-family kinase (SFK) YES and the subsequent expansion of a CD24+ cell population which showed increased metastatic behavior in vitro and in vivo relative to isogenic CD24- cells. These results suggest that LKB1 inactivation in the context of RAS activation facilitates metastasis by inducing a SFK-dependent expansion of a pro-metastatic, CD24+ tumor sub-population reference x sample
