Expression data from side population cells of the human OSCC cell line SCC172

ABSTRACT: A cancer stem cell cannot be identified solely based on surface markers as none of the markers used to isolate stem cells in various normal and cancerous tissues is expressed exclusively by stem cells. Our experimental results have also identified additional fractions representing true stem-like cells in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), refuting the concept that cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a rare population, and we have also developed an in vitro model to explore the stem cell concept in oral epithelial tumorigenesis. This model expounds four distinct fractions within a homogenous cell line SCC172 that is morphologically similar (85% cells expressing CSC markers), yet varying in all functional aspects of cell cycle, dye retention, chemoresistance, tumor-forming potential, self renewal, apoptosis resistance and regulation at molecular levels. Relating to our CSC shift model, we analysed the concept of biological heterogeneity in terms of four fractions SP1, SP2, MP1 and MP2 and associated it with variations among patients in a clinical scenario.

MicroRNA expression profiling of Ewing sarcoma cancer stem cells

Project description:We have recently demonstrated that human paediatric mesenchymal stem cells can be reprogrammed toward a Ewing’s sarcoma family tumor (ESFT) cancer stem cell (CSC) phenotype by mechanisms that implicate microRNAs (miRNAs). Here, we show that the miRNA profile of ESFT CSC is shared by embryonic stem cells and CSC from divergent tumor types. We also provide evidence that the miRNA profile of ESFT CSC is the result of reversible disruption of TARBP2-dependent miRNA maturation. Restoration of TARBP2 activity and systemic delivery of synthetic forms of either of two of its targets, miRNA-143 or miRNA-145, inhibited ESFT CSC clonogenicity and tumor growth in vivo. Our observations suggest that CSC self-renewal and tumor initiation may depend on deregulation of TARBP2-dependent miRNA expression. 2 samples of primary Ewing sarcomas, divided into CD133+ and CD133- fractions. One sample of EWS-FLI1 expressing human pediatric mesenchymal stem cells, divided into CD133+ and CD133- fractions. One sample of STA-ET-8.2 cells, divided into CD133+ and CD133- fractions.

Ganguli2018-immuno regulatory mechanisms in tumor microenvironment

Project description:This model describes the concept of Cancer Stem Cells(CSC) differentiation and tumor-immune interaction into a generic model that has been validated with known experimental data. Created by COPASI 4.24(Build197) Abstract: The tumor microenvironment comprising of the immune cells and cytokines acts as the 'soil' that nourishes a developing tumor. Lack of a comprehensive study of the interactions of this tumor microenvironment with the heterogeneous sub-population of tumor cells that arise from the differentiation of Cancer Stem Cells (CSC), i.e. the 'seed', has limited our understanding of the development of drug resistance and treatment failures in Cancer. Based on this seed and soil hypothesis, for the very first time, we have captured the concept of CSC differentiation and tumor-immune interaction into a generic model that has been validated with known experimental data. Using this model we report that as the CSC differentiation shifts from symmetric to asymmetric pattern, resistant cancer cells start accumulating in the tumor that makes it refractory to therapeutic interventions. Model analyses unveiled the presence of feedback loops that establish the dual role of M2 macrophages in regulating tumor proliferation. The study further revealed oscillations in the tumor sub-populations in the presence of TH1 derived IFN-γ that eliminates CSC; and the role of IL10 feedback in the regulation of TH1/TH2 ratio. These analyses expose important observations that are indicative of Cancer prognosis. Further, the model has been used for testing known treatment protocols to explore the reasons of failure of conventional treatment strategies and propose an improvised protocol that shows promising results in suppressing the proliferation of all the cellular sub-populations of the tumor and restoring a healthy TH1/TH2 ratio that assures better Cancer remission.

Gene expression data from sorted and unsorted primary human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) samples

Project description:Experiments using xenografts show that some solid tumours and leukemias are organized as cellular hierarchies sustained by cancer stem cells (CSC). Despite promise, the relevance of the CSC model to human disease remains uncertain. Here we show that acute myeloid leukemia (AML) follows a CSC model based on sorting multiple populations from each of 16 primary human AML samples and identifying which contain leukemia stem cells (LSC) using a sensitive xenograft assay. Analysis of gene expression from all functionally validated populations yielded an LSC-specific signature. Similarly, a hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) gene signature was established. Bioinformatic analysis identified a core transcriptional program shared by LSC and HSC, revealing the molecular machinery underlying stemness properties. Both stem cell programs were highly significant independent predictors of patient survival and also found in existing prognostic signatures. Thus, determinants of stemness influence clinical outcome of AML establishing that LSC are clinically relevant and not mere artifacts of xenotransplantation. Analysis of gene expression in FACS sorted AML fractions that were functionally determined to be enriched for LSC or not (25 and 29 respectively).

Establishment of Highly Tumorigenic Human Colorectal Cancer Cell Line (CR4) with Properties of Putative Cancer Stem Cells

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) has the third highest incidence and mortality rates among the US population. According to the most recent concept of carcinogenesis, human tumors are organized hierarchically, and the top of this hierarchy is occupied by malignant stem cells, or cancer stem cells (CSCs), which possess unlimited self-renewal and tumor-initiating capacities and high resistance to conventional anticancer therapies. To reflect the complexity and diversity of human tumors and to provide clinically and physiologically relevant in vivo and in vitro models, a large banks of well characterized patient-derived low-passage cell lines, and especially CSC-enriched cell lines are urgently needed. Using RNA-Seq, we have performed a functional genomic analysis in tumor-initiating fractions of CR4 (small) cells grown adherent to type I collagen versus grown as 3D spheroids, in comparison to the bulk tumor cells (long and dychotomized cells) grown under standard culture conditions.

In-Vivo Expansion of Cancer Stemness Affords Novel Cancer Stem Cell Targets: Malignant Rhabdoid Tumor as an Example

Project description:Cancer stem cell (CSC) identification relies on transplantation assays of cell sub-populations sorted from fresh tumor samples. Herein, we attempt to bypass limitations of abundant tumor source and predetermined immune selection by in-vivo propagating patient derived xenografts (PDX) from human malignant rhabdoid tumor (MRT), a rare and lethal pediatric neoplasm, to an advanced state in which most cells behave as CSCs. Stemness is then probed by comparative transcriptomics of serial PDXs generating a gene signature of EMT, invasion/motility, metastasis and self-renewal, pinpointing putative MRT CSC markers. The relevance of these putative CSC molecules is analyzed by sorting tumorigenic fractions from early-passaged PDX according to one such molecule, deciphering expression in archived primary tumors and testing the effects of CSC molecule inhibition on MRT growth. Using this platform, we identify ALDH1 and lysyl oxidase (LOX) as relevant targets and provide a larger framework for target and drug discovery in rare pediatric cancers.

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.

Expression profiles of CD24-/CD44+/ESA+ population in MDA-MB-231 and its highly metastatic variants.

Project description:Breast cancer is a curable disease if it is diagnosed at an early stage. However, only little options are left once the tumor is metastasized to distant organs, and more than 90% of breast cancer death is attributed to metastatic disease. The process of metastasis is highly complex and involves many steps for successful colonization of tumor cells at a target organ. According to the cancer stem cell (CSC) theory, which still remains a hypothesis, these metastatic cells must have stem cell-like capability for their self-renewal in addition to their invasive ability. Therefore, it has been predicted that a “metastatic stem cell”, which is distinct from a cancer stem cell, must exist in the primary tumor mass. To identify genes that are involved in metastasis of CSCs, we isolated CSC populations from a well-established model cell line of breast cancer, MDA-MB231, and that of highly metastatic variants, 231BoM-1833 and 231BrM-2a, using CD24, CD44 and EpCAM (ESA), which have been identified as surface markers for CSCs in breast cancers. Overall yield of CSCs from these cells ranged from 2% to 4%. We then performed global expression profile analysis for these CSCs using the Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0ST array. CSC populations (CD24-/CD44+/ESA+) from MDA-MB231, 231BoM-1833 and 231BrM-2a were isolated by magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS) using specific antibodies to these surface markers. The total RNA was isolated from the CSC populations using the RNeasy RNA isolation kit (Qiagen). The RNA was then converted to cDNA and they were hybridized to the Human Gene 1.0ST chip (Affymetrix). The data was normalized using the RMA algorithm of the Expression Console software (Affymetrix). A comparison of transcriptional profiles was then performed in CSCs of highly metastatic cell lines (231BoM-1833 and 231BrM-2a) compared to the CSCs of MDA-MB-231.
