THE INTEGRATIVE GENOMIC AND FUNCTIONAL IMMUNOLOGICAL ANALYSES OF COLORECTAL CANCER INITIATING CELLS TO MODULATE STEMNESS PROPERTIES AND THE SUSCEPTIBILIY TO IMMUNE RESPONSES [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: We conducted a Total RNAseq profiling of primary CICs-CRC and differentiated tumor cell lines-CRC (FBS), including autologous pairs. A differential gene expression profile was detected in CICs vs. FBS tumor cells. Overall, N=1187 were detected out of a total of 15,913 genes with measured expression as differentially expressed with p<0.05. Through applying the threshold of p<0.01and LogFC of 1.5, N=132 genes resulted as significantly differentially expressed in CICs as compared to FBS tumor cells. In summary, 33 pathways were found to be signiﬁcantly impacted highlighting the hub function of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) (N=40) and significant pathways (N=26) (p<0.05). The differentially expressed genes include genes related to cancer development and progression, e.g., the unfolded protein response component CHAC1 as well as the hexokinase domain component 1, HKDC1 which promotes tumor immune evasion in hepatocellular carcinoma by coupling cytoskeleton to STAT1 activation and PD-L1 expression. Moreover, aldolase, fructose-bisphosphate C (ALDOC), that is associated with tumor cell spheroids formation, was 2.5-fold upregulated in CICs compared to FBS tumor cells while LCK kinase, implicated in various oncogenic processes, particularly in colorectal cancer was 5-fold upregulated in CICs. On the other hand, JUNB, a direct target of TGF-β-Smad signaling, which can act as tumor suppressor or oncogene depending on the cancer entity was found to be downmodulated in CRC-CICs vs. -FBS tumor cell lines.

THE INTEGRATIVE GENOMIC AND FUNCTIONAL IMMUNOLOGICAL ANALYSES OF COLORECTAL CANCER INITIATING CELLS TO MODULATE STEMNESS PROPERTIES AND THE SUSCEPTIBILIY TO IMMUNE RESPONSES [miRNA]

Project description:The nCounter technology (Nanostring Technology) was used for the characterization of the repertoire of miRNAs expressed in CICs (initiating cells) and FBS (differentiated tumor cell) colorectal cancer cell lines. The Nanostring miRNA panel V3 (including ~800 targets) was run on all samples. The class comparison of the profile of miRNAs in CRC-CIC vs. FBS tumor cells led to the identification of N=57 differentially expressed miRNAs (p≤0.05). Most of the miRNAs were found to be upregulated in CICs vs. FBS cell lines, including the N=11 top scored differentially expressed (p<0.02, miRNAs -299, -15a, -210, -196a, -362, -378d, -3144, -4461, -4488 and let-7d). Pathway Analysis performed on target genes for the miRNAs, showing their involvement in tumorigenic functions, such as cell cycle, migration, development and proliferation and the regulation of EMT.

THE INTEGRATIVE GENOMIC AND FUNCTIONAL IMMUNOLOGICAL ANALYSES OF COLORECTAL CANCER INITIATING CELLS TO MODULATE STEMNESS PROPERTIES AND THE SUSCEPTIBILIY TO IMMUNE RESPONSES

Project description:We conducted a genome wide DNA methylation profiling of primary CICs-CRC and differentiated tumor cell lines-CRC, including autologous pairs. The Illumina Infinium Methylation EPIC v1.0 BeadChip Array was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles.  Idat files generated by Infinium MethylationV.1 BeadChip were analyzed using the RnBeads R package. In total, 782939 probes were retained for further differential DNA methylation analysis. Differential methylation analysis between CIC and FBS cell lines was conducted using limmaR package at the CpG sites and region levels, defined as tiling (5 kb), genes, promoters, and CpG islands. For differential methylation measures, a combined rank a total of 3529 differentially methylated sites were identified. A combined rank among the 500 best ranking regions was applied to identify differentially methylated genes (n=79) and promoters (n=31) in CRC-CICs vs. FBS cell lines. N=48 and 31 genes were hypomethylated and hypermethylated, respectively while, at the promoter levels, N=9 and 22 were hypomethylated and hypermethylated, respectively in CRC-CIC as compared to FBS cell lines (p-value ≤0.11). CICs exhibited distinct methylation patterns, compared to differentiated tumor cells (p<0.05 or 0.01). Following the data quality control and normalization,

THE INTEGRATIVE GENOMIC AND FUNCTIONAL IMMUNOLOGICAL ANALYSES OF COLORECTAL CANCER INITIATING CELLS TO MODULATE STEMNESS PROPERTIES AND THE SUSCEPTIBILIY TO IMMUNE RESPONSES [RNA-Seq]

Project description:We conducted a the transcriptomic profile of CICs or FBS cell lines, upon treatment or not with immunomodulatory or epigenetic drugs or with miRNA modulators, using the QuantSeq 3’mRNA-Seq Library Prep Kit-FWD (Lexogen). Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were assessed in CICs and FBS cell line pairs (#1076 and 1247) upon treatment with either miRNA-15a or -196a modulators (inhibitors or mimics) or immunomodulatory or epigenetic agents (HDACi, butyrate or IFN-γ + butyrate). Numerous DEGs were detected among the comparisons of the different treatments. In CICs, N= 176, 238, 131, 168, 1155, 1237 and 1368 DEGs were significantly (p<0.05) detected following their treatment with miR-15a mimic or inhibitor, miR-196a mimic or inhibitor, butyrate, HDACi or IFN-γ + butyrate, respectively. The results corroborated the role of miRNA-15a and miRNA-196a mimics and of epigenetic drugs as beneficial treatments to improve CRC-specific immune responses through mechanisms including TGF-β signaling downmodulation, HLA and APM upregulation and negative regulation of tumorigenic pathways.

GRIK2 is a target for bladder cancer stem-like cell-targeting immunotherapy

Project description:Recent studies revealed that treatment resistant cancer stem-like cells (CSCs)/cancer-initiating cells (CICs) can be targeted by cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). CTLs recognize antigenic peptide derived from tumor-associated antigens (TAAs), thus identification of tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) expressed in CSCs/CICs is essential. Human leucocyte antigen (HLA) ligandome analysis using mass spectrometry enables analysis of naturally expressed antigenic peptides; however, HLA ligandome analysis requires large scale of sample and it is challenging for CSCs/CICs. In this study, we established novel bladder CSC/CIC model from a bladder cancer cell line UM-UC-3 cells using ALDEFLUOR assay. CSCs/CICs were isolated as aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) high cells and several ALDHhigh clone cells were established. ALDHhigh clone cells were enriched with CSCs/CICs by sphere formation and tumorigenicity in immune deficient mouse. HLA ligandome analysis and gene expression (CAGE) using ALDHhigh clone cells revealed distinctive antigenic peptide repertoire in bladder CSCs/CICs, and we identified GRIK2 derived antigenic peptide is specifically expressed in CSCs/CICs. GRIK2 peptide-specific CTL clone recognized GRIK2-overexpressed UM-UC-3 cells and ALDHhigh clone cells indicating that GRIK2 peptide can be a novel target for bladder CSCs/CICs-targeting immunotherapy.

CD8(+) T cells cell-in-cell mediates colorectal cancer progression via P38 activation

Project description:Cell-in-cell(CIC) refers to the active internalization of one or more living cells into another. However, the biological significance and clinical implications of CIC between immune cells and cancer remain unclear. Here, we showed CIC by immunohistochemistry, real-time imaging and multiplex tissue immunofluorescence staining. CD8(+) T cell CIC counts were correlated with lymph node metastasis,T stage, and differentiation in stage I-III CRC. We found CIC counts >4.25 per high-power (magnification 400×) field positively affected metastasis-free survival in stage I-III CRC. Functional experiments demonstrated CD8(+) T CICs increased the migration and invasion in vitro and in vivo. Notably, CD8(+) T CICs were accompanied by greater activation of p38. In addition, blocking p38 using SB203580 significantly suppressed the migration and invasion of CD8(+) T CICs in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, phosphorylated-p38 overexpressing CD8(+) T CICs showed increased expression of cytokeratin 13 (KRT13); however, CD8(+) T CICs pretreated with SB203580 exhibited a significant suppression of KRT13. In summary, Our findings demonstrate that CD8(+) T CIC could be one of the mechanisms of CRC progression. P38 contributes to CD8(+) T “in-cell progression,” and KRT13 may participate in P38- induced “in-cell progression.”

Global mapping of binding sites of Nrf2 in SAS and SAS sphere cells

Project description:Cancer-initiating cells (CICs), a small subset of cancer cells, exploit the characteristics of self-renewal and differentiation to drive tumor growth. Previously, we enriched and identified head and neck CICs (HN-CICs) through sphere culture. Nrf2 played an important role in maintaining the characteristics of CICs; however, the identities of the Nrf2-regulated genes in CICs remain elusive. Therefore, we performed ChIP-Seq analyses of parental and sphere cells using an antibody against Nrf2.

Expression data from human breast cancer tissue

Project description:Although cell-in-cell structure (CICs) is often observed in human tumors and is likely to be associated with tumor progression, it is unclear whether CICs indicate different malignant stages and/or inflammatory conditions. In the case of human breast cancer, the frequency of CICs was significantly different from one patient sample to another, which may indicate different malignant stages and/or inflammatory conditions. Therefore, we used microarrays to identified classes of differential genes and to clarify the correlation of CICs with clinical prognosis in future researches. Patient samples were divided into two groups, low CICs formation rate (L-CICs) and high CICs formation rate (H-CICs), and used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying cellularisation and identified classes of differential genes during this process.

Rat sensory and motor nerve fibroblasts LC-MSMS

Project description:In this study, a quantitative proteomic technique based on isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) was used to compare the proteome of cultured sensory and motor nerve fibroblasts (Fbs). Among a total of 2597 overlapping proteins identified, we obtained 148 differentially expressed proteins, of which 116 proteins were significantly higher expressed in sensory Fbs, and 32 proteins were significantly higher expressed in motor Fbs. Western blot and qPCR analysis were applied to validate differentially expressed proteins. Functional categorization indicated that differentially expressed proteins were linked to a diverse array of biological processes , including regeneration, axon guidance, cytoskeleton organization, cell proliferation, cell migration, cell adhesion, and tissue remodeling, which might play a critical role in the specificity of peripheral nerve regeneration. Furthermore, following co-culture of motor neurons with motor or sensory Fbs , motor Fbs significantly enhanced neurite growth than sensory Fbs. These findings indicated that nerve Fbs expressed the distinct motor and sensory phenotypes involved in different patterns of protein expression, biological processes, and effects on neurons.
