Divergent clonal evolution and tumor microenvironment remodeling shape gastric cancer peritoneal metastasis

ABSTRACT: Gastric cancer peritoneal metastasis (GCPM) is a distinct clinical entity with a poor prognosis, characterized by aggressive features and limited treatment options. Understanding its molecular biology is critical for developing effective therapies. We performed whole genome and transcriptome sequencing on GCPM samples and paired primary gastric cancer (GC) tissues from 14 and 26 patients, respectively. Our analysis revealed substantial intra-patient heterogeneity between GCPM and primary tumors at both genetic and functional levels. Inter-patient variability was observed in mutational overlaps, with some signatures unique to either GCPM or primary tumors. Tumor evolution analysis suggested divergent clonal evolution, with distinct clones specific to GCPM or primary tumors in most patients. The tumor microenvironment (TME) was poorly conserved between primary GC and GCPM, with desert-type primary tumors often transitioning to immune-enriched TMEs in metastases. These findings suggest that immunotherapy resistance in GCPM may arise from factors beyond intrinsic TME characteristics, such as limited drug delivery due to the peritoneal-plasma barrier. Collectively, our results highlight significant molecular and TME heterogeneity between GCPM and primary tumors, emphasizing the need for GCPM-specific stratification and innovative treatment strategies to improve outcomes.

Deciphering metastatic route-specific signals and their microenvironment interactions in peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer

Project description:Gastric cancer (GC) constitutes a significant cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, with metastatic patterns including hematogenous, peritoneal, and ovarian routes. Although GC gene expression patterns have been extensively researched, the metastasis-specific gene expression landscape remains largely unexplored. This study undertook a whole transcriptome sequencing analysis of 66 paired primary and metastatic (hematogenous, peritoneal, or ovarian) GC tumors from 14 patients, leading to the identification of 122 unique metastasis-specific epithelial-mesenchymal transition (msEMT) genes. These genes demonstrated varying expression patterns depending on the metastatic route, suggesting route-specific molecular mechanisms in GC metastasis. High expression of msEMT genes in primary tumors was associated with more frequent CDH1 mutations, the genomically stable subtype, and poor prognosis in The Cancer Genome Atlas GC cohort. This association was further corroborated by poor prognosis and high predictive performance for peritoneal or ovarian recurrence in two independent cohorts (GSE66229; n=300, GSE84437; n=433). Single-cell RNA sequencing analysis of primary tumors (GSE167297) and four independent ascites samples from GC patients revealed that msEMT genes were predominantly expressed in diverse fibroblast sub-populations, rather than cancer cells. This study illuminates the route-specific mechanisms and underlines the significance of msEMT genes and cancer-associated fibroblasts in GC metastasis, highlighting potential directions for future research.

Transcription profiling of human gastric cancers (Gastric Cancer project - Singapore Patient Cohort)

Project description:Genome-wide mRNA expression profiles of 200 primary gastric tumors from the Singapore patient cohort. Gastric cancer (GC) is the second leading cause of global cancer mortality, with individual gastric tumors displaying significant heterogeneity in their deregulation of various oncogenic pathways. We aim to identify major oncogenic pathways in GC that robustly impact patient survival and treatment response. We used an in silico strategy based on gene expression signatures and connectivity analytics to map patterns of oncogenic pathway activation in 25 unique GC cell lines, and in 301 primary gastric cancers from three independent patient cohorts. Of 11 oncogenic pathways previously implicated in GC, we identified three predominant pathways (proliferation/stem cell, NF-kB, and Wnt/b-catenin) deregulated in the majority (>70%) of gastric tumors. Using a variety of proliferative, Wnt, and NF-kB-related assays, we experimentally validated the pathway predictions in multiple GC cell lines showing similar pathway activation patterns in vitro. Patients stratified at the level of individual pathways did not exhibit consistent differences in clinical outcome. However, patients grouped by oncogenic pathway combinations demonstrated robust and significant survival differences (e.g., high proliferation/high NF-kB vs. low proliferation/low NF-kB), suggesting that tumor behavior in GC is likely influenced by the combined effects of multiple oncogenic pathways. Our results demonstrate that GCs can be successfully taxonomized by oncogenic pathway activity into biologically and clinically relevant subgroups. Experiment Overall Design: Profiling of 200 primary gastric tumors on Affymetrix GeneChip Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array. All tumors were collected with approvals from the National Cancer Centre, Singapore; the Research Ethics Review Committee; and signed patient informed consent.

JAK inhibitor overcomes resistance to immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment in gastric cancer peritoneal dissemination in mouse

Project description:Objective Cancer immunotherapy aims to unleash the immune system's potential against cancer cells, providing sustained relief for tumors responsive to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). While promising in gastric cancer (GC) trials, the efficacy of ICIs diminishes in the context of peritoneal dissemination. Our objective is to identify strategies to enhance the impact of ICI treatment specifically for cases involving peritoneal dissemination in GC. Design The therapeutic efficacy of anti-PD1, CTLA4 treatment alone, or in combination, was assessed using the YTN16 peritoneal dissemination tumor model mice. Peritoneum and peritoneal exudate cells were collected for subsequent analysis. Immunohistochemical staining, flow cytometry, and bulk RNA-sequence analyses were conducted to evaluate the tumor microenvironment (TME). A JAK inhibitor (JAKi) was introduced based on the pathway analysis results. Results Anti-PD1 and anti-CTLA4 combination treatment (dual ICI treatment) demonstrated therapeutic efficacy in certain mice, primarily mediated by CD8+ T cells. However, in mice resistant to dual ICI treatment, even with CD8+ T cell infiltration, most of the T cells exhibited exhaustion phenotype. Notably, resistant tumors displayed abnormal activation of the JAK-STAT pathway compared to the untreated group, with observed infiltration of macrophages, neutrophils, and Tregs in the TME. The concurrent administration of JAKi rescued CD8+ T cells function and reshaped the immunosuppressive TME, resulting in enhanced efficacy of the dual ICI treatment. Conclusion Dual ICI treatment exerts its anti-tumor effects by increasing tumor- specific CD8+ T cell infiltration, and the addition of JAKi further improves ICI resistant by reshaping the immunosuppressive TME.

Extracellular vesicle-derived VDAC1 protein promotes paclitaxel resistance through autophagy and mitophagy in gastric cancer

Project description:Gastric cancer (GC) is ranked as as the third most prevalent malignant tumor worldwide [1, 2]. Chemotherapy is considered the primary therapeutic approach for metastatic and unresectable GC [3]. Paclitaxel (PTX) is an anti-microtubule agent, and single therapy with PTX or PTX-based chemotherapy combined with other chemotherapy has demonstrated promising efficacy in clinical treatment in patients with advanced GC [4]. However, PTX-based chemotherapy is limited by acquired chemoresistance[5]. Mounting evidence have indicated that drug resistance in cancer cells is a major contributing factor for the failure of tumor treatment,resulting in the rapid recurrence, progression, and ultimately, patient mortality [6]. GC exhibits higher tissue heterogeneity and invasive behavior compared to other primary tumors [7]. Therefore, it is essential to promptly uncover the mechanisms underlying drug resistance in GC and meet unmet needs in GC treatment.
