Project description:Purpose: Prostate cancer most frequently metastasizes to bone and is incurable. Metastatic prostate cancer cells thrive in bone through molecular regulation of surrounding bone stroma; however, it is unclear how non-metastatic vs. metastatic cancer differentially alter the bone cells. Since neutrophils are the most abundant stromal cell in bone, the goal of this study was to identify prostate cancer-induced transcriptomic changes in bone marrow neutrophils for comparison to non-metastatic prostate cancer cells.

Project description:Acetaminophen (APAP) overdose is the major cause of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) and acute liver failure (ALF), and patients with advanced APAP toxicity rarely benefit from N-acetylcysteine (NAC), which is the first-line agent used in the clinic. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) and their extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) have shown promising effects in the treatment of DILI by decreasing neutrophil infiltration. However, the specific mechanism underlying the therapeutic effects of MSCs or MSC-EVs still needs to be elucidated. In this study, by using RNA-seq, we found that CXCL1, which is a chemoattractant for neutrophils, is a key molecule in MSC-mediated amelioration of DILI, and by luciferase reporter assay, we verified that MSC-EV-derived miR-186-5p binds to the 3’-UTR of CXCL1 to inhibit its expression in hepatocytes. Neutralizing CXCL1 reduces APAP-induced liver damage in vivo, and the agomir miR-186-5p shows excellent potential in the treatment of DILI. Overall, these findings suggest that the use of MSC-EVs may be a promising novel strategy for preventing DILI and that targeting the miR-186-5P/CXCL1 axis is a feasible approach for improving the efficacy of MSCs in the treatment of DILI.

Project description:Carcinoma-associated mesenchymal stem cells (CA-MSCs) are critical stromal progenitor cells within the tumor microenvironment. We previously demonstrated that CA-MSCs differentially express BMP genes, promote tumor cell growth, increase cancer ‘stemness’ and chemotherapy resistance. Here we use RNA sequencing of normal omental MSCs and ovarian CA-MSCs to demonstrate CA-MSCs have global changes in gene expression. Using these expression profiles we create a unique predictive algorithm to classify CA-MSCs. Our classifier, accurately distinguishes normal omental, ovary and bone marrow MSCs from ovarian cancer CA-MSCs. Suggesting broad applicability, the model correctly classifies pancreatic and endometrial cancer CA-MSCs and distinguishes cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs) from CA-MSCs. Using this classifier, we definitively demonstrate ovarian CA-MSCs arise from tumor mediated reprograming of local tissue MSCs. While cancer cells alone cannot induce a CA-MSC phenotype, the in vivo ovarian tumor micoenvironment (TME) can reprogram omental or ovary MSCs to protumorigenic CA-MSC (classifier score of >0.96). In vitro studies suggest that both tumor secreted factors and hypoxia are critical to induce the CA-MSC phenotype. Interestingly, while the breast cancer TME can reprogram BM MSCs into CA-MSCs, the ovarian TME cannot, demonstrating for the first time that tumor mediated CA-MSC conversion is tissue and cancer type dependent. Together these findings (1) provide a critical tool to define CA-MSCs and (2) highlight cancer cell influence on distinct normal tissues providing powerful insights into the mechanisms underlying cancer specific metastatic niche formation.

Project description:Our studies demonstrated that bone marrow derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) drive the emergence of an apoptosis resistant population of prostate cancer cells that are also cross resistant to chemotherapy such as docetaxel. The goals of this RNAQuant study was to determine differential gene expression between the naïve and MSC educated prostate cancer cells in order to better understand the mechanisms underlying apoptosis resistance.

Project description:Lung cancer is a highly malignant tumor and the majority of cancer-related deaths are due to metastasis. The tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a fundamental role in the metastatic spread of tumor cells. Among other stromal cells, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are known to be present within the TME and to be involved in cancer progression. However the majority of previous studies have been performed on bone marrow-derived MSCs. To investigate the role of the TME on the pulmonary MSC phenotype, we compared the expression profile of paired MSCs isolated from lung tumor (T-) and normal adjacent tissues (N-) from lung carcinoma patients. We used microarray data to find differentially expressed genes between N- and T-MSCs and identified several genes associated with poor prognosis that are more highly expressed in T- than in N-MSCs and potentially involved in the MSC promotion of lung cancer metastasis.

Project description:Patients with estrogen-receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer, the most common subtype, remain at risk for lethal metastatic disease years after diagnosis. Recurrence arises partly because tumor cells in bone marrow become resistant to estrogen-targeted therapy. Here, we utilized a co-culture model of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and ER+ breast cancer cells to recapitulate interactions of cancer cells in bone marrow niches. ER+ breast cancer cells in direct contact with MSCs acquire cancer stem-like (CSC) phenotypes with increased resistance to standard antiestrogenic drugs. We confirmed that co-culture with MSCs increased labile iron in breast cancer cells, a phenotype associated with CSCs and disease progression. Clinically approved iron chelators and in-house lysosomal iron-targeting compounds restored sensitivity to antiestrogenic therapy. These findings establish iron modulation as a mechanism to reverse MSC-induced drug resistance and suggest iron modulation in combination with estrogen-targeted therapy as a promising, translatable strategy to treat ER+ breast cancer.

Project description:Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are multipotent progenitors supporting bone marrow hematopoiesis. MSC have an efficient DNA damage response (DDR) and are consequently reatively radio-resistant cells. Therefore, MSCs are key to hematopoietic reconstitution following total body irradiation (TBI) and bone marrow transplantation (BMT). The bone marrow niche is hypoxic and via the heterodimeric transcription factor Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (Hif-1), hypoxia enhances the DDR. Using gene knock-down, we have previously shown that the Hif-1α subunit of Hif is involved in MSC radio-resistance, however its exact mechanism of action remains unknown. In order to dissect the involvement of Hif-1α in the DDR, we have generated using CRISPR/Cas9 technology, a stable MS5 mouse MSC cell line lacking Hif-1 expression. Herein, we show that it is the whole Hif-1 transcription factor, and not only the Hif-1α subunit, that modulates the DDR of mouse MSCs, and that this effect is dependent upon the integrity of the DNA binding domain. We have also characterized the Hif-1α-dependent proteomic changes undergone by hypoxic MS5 cells. These findings have important implications for the modulation of MSC radio-resistance in the context of BMT and cancer.

Project description:We hypothesized that miRNAs in the bone maroow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSC)-derived exosomes contributed to the phenotype change of breast cancer cells through exosome transfer. We analyzed the miRNA expression signature in BM-MSC-derived exosomes. We compared the miRNA expression levels in exosomes between BM-MSCs and adult fibroblasts (as a control). In this study, miRNA expression including in bone-marrow mesenchymal cell (BM-MSC)-derived exosomes was examined, and compared with that of exosomes derived from adult fibroblast cells or the BM-MSC cells. In addition, miRNA expression of BM-MSC exosomes was also compared with that of breast cancer cells with or without cancer stem cell marker.

Project description:We find that various HB cell lines including HepG2 cells are consistently and considerably more tumorigenic and metastatic in the P5Tx model than in the P60Tx models. Sc-RNAseq of the P5Tx and P60Tx HepG2 models reveals that the P5Tx tumor is more hypoxic and has more activated hepatic stellate cells (aHSCs) in the tumor-surrounding liver which express significantly higher levels of Cxcl1 than those from the P60Tx model. We find these differences are developmentally present in the normal P5 and P60 liver. We show that Cxcl1/Cxcr2 axis mediates HB cell migration and is critical to HB cell survival under hypoxia. Treating HepG2 P60Tx model with recombinant CXCL1 protein induces multifocal intrahepatic and pulmonary metastasis and CXCR2 knockout in HepG2 cells abolishes their metastatic potential in the P5Tx model. Lastly, we show that in metastatic HB patient tumors there is a similar larger population of aHSCs in the tumor-surrounding liver than the localized tumors, and tumor hypoxia is significantly associated with HB patient prognosis.

Project description:The aim of this study is to identify the LSD1 target genes in metastatic androgen independent prostate cancer Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) was shown to control gene expression and cell proliferation of androgen-dependent prostate cancer (PCa) cells, whereas the role of LSD1 in androgen-independent metastatic prostate cancer remains elusive. Here, we show that depletion of LSD1 leads to increased migration and invasion of androgen-independent PCa cells. Transcriptome and cistrome analyses reveal that LSD1 regulates expression of lysophosphatidic acid receptor 6 (LPAR6) and cytoskeletal genes including the focal adhesion adaptor protein paxillin (PXN). Enhanced LPAR6 signalling upon LSD1 depletion promotes migration with concomitant phosphorylation of PXN. In mice LPAR6 overexpression enhances, whereas knockdown of LPAR6 abolishes metastasis of androgen-independent PCa cells. Taken together, we uncover a novel mechanism of how LSD1 controls metastasis and identify LPAR6 as a promising therapeutic target to treat metastatic prostate cancer.
