Project description:Tumor microenvironment plays a pivotal role in cancer progression; however, little is known regarding how differences in the microenvironment affect characteristics of cancer cells. Here, we investigated the effects of tumor microenvironment on cancer cells by using mouse tumor models. After 3 cycles of inoculation and extraction of human pancreatic cancer cells, including SUIT-2 and Panc-1 cells, from tumors, distinct cancer cell lines were established; 3P cells from the pancreas obtained using the orthotopic tumor model, and 3sc cells from subcutaneous tissue obtained using the subcutaneous tumor model. On cell re-inoculation of these cells, the 3sc cells and, more prominently, the 3P cells, exhibited higher tumorigenic activity than the parental cells. The 3P cells specifically exhibited low E-cadherin expression and high invasiveness, suggesting that they were endowed with the highest malignant characteristics. RNA-sequence analysis demonstrated that distinct signaling pathways were activated in each cell line and that the 3P cells acquired a cancer stem cell-like phenotype. Among cancer stem cell-related genes, those specifically expressed in the 3P cells, including NES, may be potential new targets for cancer therapy. The mechanisms underlying the development of highly malignant cancer cell lines were investigated. Individual clones within the parental cells varied in tumor-forming ability, indicating the presence of cellular heterogeneity. Moreover, the gene expression profile of each clone changed after orthotopic inoculation. The present study thus suggests that both selection and education processes are involved in the development of highly malignant cancer cells.

Project description:Loss of function mutations of the histone acetyltransferase CREBBP have recently been described at high frequencies across a spectrum of lymphoid malignancies. The multiple effects of this epigenetic regulator on developmental and homeostatic processes have been extensively studied, however, exactly how CREBBP functions as a tumour suppressor remains unclear. Here we use a murine model to demonstrate that loss of Crebbp in haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) leads to increased development of B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders (LPD). We identify a pre-malignant (PM) B220+ Mac1+ stem cell which ultimately transforms to LPD and shed light on the mechanisms of malignant evolution by comparing lymphoid progenitors, pre-malignant and malignant cells at the clonal, transcriptional, epigenetic and genetic levels. We demonstrate that loss of Crebbp in HSPCs facilitates the development of lymphoid malignancies by generating a hyperproliferative population of lymphoid progenitors with an altered response to DNA-damage and enhanced self-renewal properties. Global genomic profiling revealed that epigenetic alterations observed in lymphoid progenitors correlated highly with transcriptional changes observed in frank LPD. Taken together, these findings define the tumour suppressor functions of Crebbp and shed light on the cellular origins and subsequent evolution of lymphoid malignancies.

Project description:To explore malignant phenotype related genes in Panc-1-CTC, we performed gene expression array analysis with Panc-1-CTC and Panc-1-Parent (Panc-1-P). As a result, TGFBI upregulation emerged as highly malignant feature for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Identification of malignant phenotype related genes in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

Project description:Cancer stem cells (CSCs), a small subset of the tumor bulk with highly malignant properties, are deemed responsible for tumor initiation, growth, metastasis, and relapse. In order to reveal molecular markers and determinants of stemness properties, pancreatic CSCs were enriched in three-dimensional spheroid cultures of two highly metastatic pancreatic cancer cell lines (L3.6sl and L3.6pl) and compared to bulk tumor cells using differential proteomics (PTX). We identified about 400 putative target proteins with significantly different expression in pancreatic CSCs and bulk tumor cells. By combining the unbiased PTX with gene expression analysis using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) we nominated the two calcium binding proteins S100A8 (MRP8) and S100A9 (MRP14), as well as galactin-3-binding protein LGALS3BP (MAC-2-BP) as putative determinants of pancreatic CSCs. In silico pathway analysis followed by candidate-based RNA interference mediated functional analysis revealed a critical role of S100A8, S100A9, and LGALS3BP as molecular determinants of CSC proliferation, migration and in vivo tumor initiation. Our study highlights the power of combining unbiased proteomics with focused gene expression and functional analyses for the identification of key regulators of CSCs, an approach that warrants further application to identify CSCs proteins amenable to drug targeting.

Project description:The crosstalk between tumor and immune cells has important implications for cancer treatment, in particular for immunotherapies. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) generally displays a chemoresistant phenotype and is refractory to immune-based therapies. Highly tumorigenic and stem-like cells known as cancer stem cells (CSCs) within PDAC tumors have been demonstrated to contribute to its aggressiveness, metastatic capacity and chemoresistance. Here, we show that CSCs could be also relevant to establish an immunosuppresive environment. Using genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs) of PDAC we isolated a triple positive (EpCAM+, Sca-1+ and CD133+) population of tumor cells, functionally validated these cells as bona fide CSCs and probed their transcriptional profile by microarray analysis. In addition to stem pathways, signatures related to tumor immune evasion, immune modulation, invasiveness, and innate immune response were enriched in this population. Peptidoglycan recognition protein 1 (Pglyrp1), an innate immune response anti-bacterial protein expressed primarily by neutrophils, was highly expressed in this triple-positive population and in CSC-enriched spheres from human cell lines. Interestingly, modulation of Pglyrp1 expression in murine PDAC primary cultures affected their immune evasive properties, specifically their ability to escape macrophage- and T-cell-mediated killing in vitro and to establish tumors in immunocompetent hosts. Pglyrp1 expression in tumor cells seemed to interfere with TNFα-mediated killing by T cells and to promote activated T-cell cytotoxicity. Importantly, these results could be validated in CSCs from human patient-derived xenografts, and PGLYRP1 protein levels were also significantly higher in PDAC patient samples versus healthy controls. Thus, our study demonstrates a hierarchical organization of cancer cells in a murine model of PDAC, validating the CSC concept, and identifies Pglyrp1 as a putative PDAC biomarker that confers immune privilege properties to CSCs which could have important therapeutic implications.
