Project description:Cancer stem cells (CSCs) comprise a small subpopulation of undifferentiated cancer cells with the ability to self-renew and give rise to the heterogeneous cancer cell lineages that form tumorous masses. Thus, tumor eradication may be greatly improved by specifically targeting CSCs, as they exhibit resistance to conventional therapy. To gain insight into the unique biology of CSCs, we developed patient-derived xenograft (PDX) tumors from ER-negative breast cancer patient tissue from which we isolated mammospheres, a method known to enrich for cells with CSC-properties. An unbiased, comparative global proteomic analysis using label-free mass spectrometry was performed on the patient tumor tissues and corresponding PDX tumors and mammospheres. Good concordance between the proteome profiles of patient tumor tissue and corresponding PDX tumors was observed. However, lower abundance of immune- and extracellular matrix-related proteins and higher abundance of proteins associated with cell-to-cell adhesion including desmosome proteins and β-catenin were observed in PDX versus patient tumors. Interestingly, analysis of proteins elevated in mammospheres vs. PDX tumors identified an enrichment of proteins associated with de novo cholesterol synthesis. The clinical relevance of increased cholesterol biosynthesis protein expression was verified in a large gene expression data set of clinical breast cancers showing correlation with shorter relapse-free survival. RNA interference and chemical inhibition of the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway reduced mammosphere formation and growth of CSCs derived from PDX tumors and cancer cell lines. Our findings identify the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway as central for CSC growth and a potential therapeutic target for CSC as well as providing an additional mechanistic explanation for the observed benefit of statins in breast cancer treatment.

Project description:Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among women. PDXs (patient-derived xenografts) are similar to cancer cell lines but differ in that they are maintained in a physiological setting as soon as they are isolated from the patient and for subsequent passages. These models are valuable for preclinical trials because PDX models have been shown to closely match their patient counterparts, both in genomic profile and response to treatment. Collection of RNA-expression data from multiple PDX models was performed to generate a library of RNA-sequencing data which may be utilized to compare tumors from different subtypes or treatment groups.

Project description:Patient derived xenografts (PDX) were created from two triple-negative breast cancers (PDX-110 and PDX-332) taken at the time of surgery from drug-naive patients. Freshly sorted epithelial cells were profiled by single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) using a 10X Genomics Chromium System.

Project description:Breast cancer is a heterogeneous collection of disease arising from the breast with distinct molecular and phenotypic features. Certain subsets of patients have tumors that are particularly difficult-to-treat, which include triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), metastatic/recurrent disease and rare histological variants. To delineate the underlying biology and identify therapeutic candidates for these patients, a series of 37 breast cancer patient-derived xenografts (PDX) from both chemo-naïve and pre-treated specimens was generated from 81 transplant attempts. Whole-genome and transcriptome sequencing revealed marked fidelity of the molecular landscape for the majority of PDXs in comparison to parental tumors. Reverse-phase protein array analysis of PDXs further identified potential therapeutic targets. Metastatic potential varied between PDXs, where low-penetrance lung micrometastases was the most common pattern of dissemination and observed in 34.5% of models. Three PDXs recapitulated the metastatic localization seen in the corresponding patients, including two lines with high-frequency metastases to multiple vital organ systems, while another PDX displayed tropism to the skull-base. Chemosensitivity profiling was performed in vivo with standard-of-care agents (doxorubicin, cisplatin, gemcitabine or paclitaxel), where multi-drug chemoresistance was found in 60.0% of PDXs and 64.7% of responses were concordant with pre-engraftment responses observed in the patient. Consolidating chemogenomic data identified potentially actionable features in 97.2% of PDXs, and marked regressions were seen in vivo when a subset of these underwent proof-of-concept functional studies. This included FGFR inhibitor sensitivity in a FGFR1-amplified lobular carcinoma, mTOR inhibitor sensitivity in a recurrent neuroendocrine breast cancer with proteomic evidence of mTOR/PI3K activation, and platinum sensitivity in a TNBC with BRCA1 germline mutation predicted as benign. Together, this clinically-annotated PDX library with comprehensive molecular and phenotypic profiling serves as a resource for both discovery and validation preclinical studies on difficult-to-treat breast tumors.

Project description:End-stage breast cancers are clonally heterogeneous and harbor many poorly-understood treatment resistance mechanisms. We therefore established multiple Patient-Derived-Xenograft (PDX) models to study genomic events driving advanced disease. Comparative whole-genome sequencing of paired primary tumors and their PDX models demonstrated that PDX retain the vast majority of the structural variations and copy number aberrations seen within the originating tumor, and with high fidelity. Variant allele fractions (VAF) were preserved, even for rare mutations. Clonal representation is therefore a transplantable phenotype, indicating that genomic heterogeneity can be regulated in a tumor-autonomous mechanism, indifferent to host immune status. Mutations and gene rearrangements were documented in the ESR1 gene in three of five sequenced luminal PDX/progenitor tumor pairs (amplification, point mutation and translocation), and were associated with clinical endocrine response phenotypes, differential PDX estradiol responsiveness and all induced estradiol-independent growth in standard cell lines. PDX models are therefore a significant new tool for fundamental studies on the molecular basis for resistance to endocrine treatment in advanced breast cancer. reference x sample

Project description:<p>Resistance to endocrine treatments and CDK4/6 inhibitors is considered a near-inevitability in most patients with estrogen receptor positive breast cancers (ER+ BC). By genomic and metabolomics analyses of patients’ tumours, metastasis-derived patient-derived xenografts (PDX) and isogenic cell lines we demonstrate that a fraction of metastatic ER + BC is highly reliant on oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Treatment by the OXPHOS inhibitor IACS-010759 strongly inhibits tumour growth in multiple endocrine and palbociclib resistant PDX. Mutations in the PIK3CA/AKT1 genes are significantly associated with response to IACS-010759. At the metabolic level, in vivo response to IACS-010759 is associated with decreased levels of metabolites of the glutathione, glycogen and pentose phosphate pathways in treated tumours. In vitro, endocrine and palbociclib resistant cells show increased OXPHOS dependency and increased ROS levels upon IACS-010759 treatment. Finally, in ER+ BC patients, high expression of OXPHOS associated genes predict poor prognosis. In conclusion, these results identify OXPHOS as a promising target for treatment resistant ER+ BC patients.Insert information here such as publication abstract</p>

Project description:Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive subtype that lack targeted clinical therapies. In addition, TNBC is heterogeneous and was recently further sub-classified into seven TNBC subtypes that displayed unique gene expression patterns. To develop therapeutic treatment regimens, we established seven patient-derived xenograft models from TNBC tumors. These xenograft models not only retained the histology and clinical markers of the corresponding patient tumors, but also bearing the same mutations and deletions identified in the patient tumors. Moreover, as part of evaluation of these models, we performed microarrays on the xenograft tumors to assess their TNBC subtypes. After obtaining IRB-approved informed written patient consent, breast cancer tissues were obtained fresh from Stanford Hospital and transplanted into the number 2 mammary fat pads of female NOD SCID mice (NOD.CB17-Prkdcscid/J, Jackson Laboratory West, Sacramento, CA, USA). Mice were maintained in pathogen-free animal housing. The established xenografts were subsequently passaged from mouse to mouse. Xenograft tumor tissues were frozen on dry ice for RNA isolation and microarray analysis.

Project description:Here we quantified tyrosine phosphorylation (pTyr) mediated signaling networks in chemotherapy sensitive (CS) and resistant (CR) TNBC patient derived xenografts (PDX) to gain novel therapeutic insights. We identified Src Family Kinases (SFKs) as potential therapeutic targets in CR TNBC PDXs. Additionally, we performed pTyr analysis on tumor specimens derived from TNBC patients and observed lower prevalence of SFK driven tumors.
