Project description:The survival of isolated metastatic cells and expansion into macroscopic tumour has been recognized as a limiting step for metastasis formation in several cancer types yet the determinants of this process remain largely uncharacterized. In colorectal cancer (CRC), we identify a transcriptional programme in tumour-associated stromal cells, which is intimately linked to a high risk of developing recurrent disease after therapy. A large proportion of CRCs display mutational inactivation of the TGF-beta pathway but paradoxically they are characterized by high TGF-beta production. In these tumours, TGF-beta instructs a transcriptional programme in stromal cells, which confers a high risk of developing metastatic disease. We purified by FACS [CD45(+),Epcam(-)], [CD45(-) Epcam(+)] and [CD45(-) Epcam(-)] cell populations from fresh CRC samples and assessed their gene expression profiles

Pieces were then homogenized. Enzymatic reaction was stopped by adding 10% FBS and single cells were collected by sequential filtering. Cells were resuspended in Ammonium Chloride (0.15M) to lyse erythrocytes. Cells were stained with anti-hEpcam/TROP1-APC and anti-CD45-PE conjugated antibody. Dead cells were labeled with Propidium Iodide. Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting (FACS) was used to separate cells.

We purified by FACS CD31(+), CD45(+), FAP(+) and Epcam(+) populations from fresh CRC samples and assessed their gene expression profiles Freshly obtained tumours from 6 CRC patients treated at Hospital del Mar or Hospital Clinic (Barcelona, Spain) were minced and incubated with Collagenase IV (100 U mL-1). Enzymatic reaction was stopped by adding 10% FBS, single cells were collected by sequential filtering and resuspended in ammonium chloride (0.15M) to lyse erythrocytes. Cells were stained with FAP unconjugated rabbit antibody. After two washes with HBSS, cells were stained with an APC conjugated anti-rabbit antibody; anti-hEPCAM/TROP1-FITC, anti-CD31-PE and anti-CD45-PE-Cy7 conjugated antibody. Dead cells were labelled with Propidium Iodide. Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting (FACS) was used to separate 2000 cells from each population; [CD45(+), EPCAM(-), CD31(-), FAP(-)], [CD45(-) EPCAM(+), CD31(-), FAP(-)], [CD45(-), EPCAM(-), CD31(+),FAP(-)] and [CD45(-), EPCAM(-), CD31(-), FAP(+)].

We quantified the association of TGF-beta-activated fibroblasts with disease progression. To this end, we used as surrogates the gene expression programme upregulated by addition of TGF-beta to normal colon mucosa-derived fibroblasts (CCD-Co-18) in culture.

To this end, we used as surrogates the gene expression programme upregulated by addition of TGF-beta to normal colon mucosa-derived fibroblasts (CCD-Co-18) in culture. CCD-Co-18 were seeded at 60% confluence and treated with TGF-β1. Gene expression profiles were measured in duplicate using HG-U133 plus 2.0. We used RMA background correction, quantile normalization and RMA summarization (Gautier et al., 2004). A TGF-β response signature was obtained by selecting genes with limma P-value < 0.05 and at least two fold up-regulation in TGF-β treated fibroblasts.

Project description:BACKGROUND. Improving and predicting tumor response to immunotherapy remains challenging. Combination therapy with a transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) inhibitor that targets cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs) is promising to enhance efficacy of cancer immunotherapies. However, the effect of this approach in clinical trials is limited, requiring in vivo methods to better assess tumor responses to combination therapy. METHODS. We measure CAFs in vivo using gallium 68-labeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (68Ga-FAPI) for PET/CT imaging to guide TGF-β inhibition and sensitize metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) to immunotherapy. A total of 131 patients with metastatic CRC underwent 68Ga-FAPI and 18F-fludeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) PET/CT imaging. Fourteen patients underwent surgery after the imaging. Relationship between uptake of 68Ga-FAPI and tumor immunity was analyzed. Mouse cohorts of metastatic CRC were treated with TGF-β receptor (TGF-βR) inhibitor combined with KN046 which blocks PD-L1 and CTLA4, followed with 68Ga-FAPI and 18F-FDG micro-PET/CT imaging to assess tumor responses. RESULTS. Patients with metastatic CRC demonstrated high uptakes of 68Ga-FAPI, along with suppressive tumor immunity and poor prognosis. TGF-βR inhibitor enhanced tumor infiltrating T cells and significantly sensitized metastatic CRC to KN046. 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT imaging accurately monitored the dynamical changes of CAFs and tumor response to combined TGF-βR inhibitor with immunotherapy. CONCLUSION. 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT imaging is powerful in assessing tumor immunity and response to immunotherapy in metastatic CRC. This study supports future clinical application of 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT to stratify and guide patients with CRC for precise TGF-β inhibition plus immunotherapy, recommending 68Ga-FAPI and 18F-FDG dual PET/CT for CRC management.

Project description:Mouse tumour organoids (MTOs) derived from a compound mutant (LAKTP) intestinal cancer model were orthoptopically transplanted into syngeneic C57BL/6J mice. Tumour-bearing mice were treated with TGF-beta inhibitor Galunisertib or vehicle control. Whole tumour mRNA was extracted from primary tumours and expression profiling was performed with the objective to characterize the tumour microenvironment (TME). As a TGF-beta-activated TME has been associated to a poor prognosis and the CRC consensum molecular subtype CMS4, and the mouse model was found to have such an activated TME, we used the array data to classify these tumours in this mouse model system as CMS4-like. Furthermore, treatment with TGF-beta inhibitor reduced the fibroblast- and T cell-specific TGF-beta response signatures, also associated to poor prognosis in human CRC. This treatment was associated to a strong reduction/prevention of liver metastasis, as well as a reduction of primary tumour (and local carcinomatosis) size.

Project description:Metastasized colorectal cancer (CRC) is associated with a poor prognosis and rapid disease progression. Besides hepatic metastasis, peritoneal carcinomatosis is the major cause of death in UICC stage IV CRC patients. Insights into differential site-specific reconstitution of tumour cells and the corresponding tumour microenvironment are still missing. Here, we analysed the transcriptome of single cells derived from murine multivisceral CRC and gave insight into the inter-metastatic cellular heterogeneity regarding tumour epithelium, stroma and immune cells. Interestingly, we found an intercellular site-specific network of cancer associated fibroblasts and tumour epithelium during peritoneal metastasis as well as an autologous feed-forward loop in cancer stem cells. We furthermore deciphered a metastatic dysfunctional adaptive immunity by a loss of B cell dependent antigen presentation and consecutive effector cell exhaustion. Consequently, we demonstrate the high human-mimicking potential of this murine metastatic CRC model and provide a valid tool for future site-specific preclinical drug testing.

Project description:The global up-regulation of histone acetylation modification after the activation of the TGF-β signaling pathway raised the possibility that the differential expression of specific histone acetyltransferases or histone deacetylases may involve in the modulation of TGF-β-associated chemoresistance in CRC. To test this hypothesis, high-throughput mRNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) was performed to compare the expression profile between SW480 cells treated with or without TGF-β1.

Project description:TGF-beta is one of the key cytokines implicated in various disease processes including cancer. TGF-beta inhibits growth and promotes apoptosis in normal epithelial cells and in contrast, acts as a pro-tumour cytokine by promoting tumour angiogenesis, immune-escape and metastasis. The effect of TGF-beta on the regulation of gene expression is cell-type specific. In order to identify TGF-beta regulated genes in different cell-types, we followed the expression profiling approach. Keywords: cell type specific response to TGF-beta
