<h4>Motivation</h4>Val600Glu (V600E) mutation is the most common BRAF mutation detected in thyroid cancer. Hence, recent research efforts have been performed trying to explore several inhibitors of the V600E mutation-containing BRAF kinase as potential therapeutic options in thyroid cancer refractory to standard interventions. Among them, vemurafenib is a selective BRAF inhibitor approved by Food and Drug Administration for clinical practice. Unfortunately, vemurafenib often displays limited eff ...[more]

The stem cell gene ABCB5 mediates cancer resistance to apoptosis

Project description:Cancer stem cells (CSC) responsible for disease progression and therapeutic resistance have been identified in several human malignancies, including colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the molecular mechanisms through which CSC drive tumor growth are incompletely understood. ABCB5, a member of the ATP-binding cassette superfamily of active transporters, serves as a CSC-specific multidrug resistance mechanism in diverse human malignancies. Additionally, ABCB5 has recently been demonstrated to function as an anti-apoptotic gene in tissue-specific non-malignant stem cells. Here we demonstrate that ABCB5 also serves an anti-apoptotic role required for CSC maintenance in human cancer. Targeted inhibition of ABCB5, previously shown to be preferentially expressed on CD133-positive CRC stem cells, induced tumor cell apoptosis in vitro and in vivo and inhibited human CRC growth in NSG recipient mice. Mechanistically, ABCB5-positive tumor cell ablation through monoclonal antibody-mediated blockade or shRNA-mediated gene knockdown resulted in diminished production of the receptor tyrosine kinase AXL, a pro-tumorigenic molecule identified herein to be preferentially produced by CRC stem cells. Restoration of AXL expression through gene transfection in ABCB5 knockdown tumors partially restored tumor growth, demonstrating that ABCB5-positive CRC stem cells drive tumorigenicity at least in part through production of AXL. Our results establish a novel anti-apoptotic function of ABCB5 in human cancer and indicate that targeted blockade of ABCB5 represents a novel strategy for CSC eradication, independent of its previously established function as a multidrug resistance mediator.

Leptin as a Mediator of Tumor-Stromal Interactions Promotes Breast Cancer Stem Cell Activity

Project description:Breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs) play crucial roles in tumor initiation, metastasis and resistance to anticancer therapies. These cells rely for their properties on complex interactions with the tumor microenvironment through networks of cytokines and growth factors. In this study, we investigated how leptin, as a mediator of tumor-stromal interactions, may affect BCSC activity using breast cancer cell lines and patient-derived samples. Microarray analyses revealed a similar expression profile of genes involved in stem cell biology in mammosphere cells treated with stromal cell-CM and leptin.

Effects of iron modulation on mesenchymal stem cell-induced drug resistance in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer

Project description:Patients with estrogen-receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer, the most common subtype, remain at risk for lethal metastatic disease years after diagnosis. Recurrence arises partly because tumor cells in bone marrow become resistant to estrogen-targeted therapy. Here, we utilized a co-culture model of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and ER+ breast cancer cells to recapitulate interactions of cancer cells in bone marrow niches. ER+ breast cancer cells in direct contact with MSCs acquire cancer stem-like (CSC) phenotypes with increased resistance to standard antiestrogenic drugs. We confirmed that co-culture with MSCs increased labile iron in breast cancer cells, a phenotype associated with CSCs and disease progression. Clinically approved iron chelators and in-house lysosomal iron-targeting compounds restored sensitivity to antiestrogenic therapy. These findings establish iron modulation as a mechanism to reverse MSC-induced drug resistance and suggest iron modulation in combination with estrogen-targeted therapy as a promising, translatable strategy to treat ER+ breast cancer.

Computational modeling integrating transcriptomic and vulnerability responses can predict suppressors of cell death as candidate targets for cancer therapy

Project description:Identification of novel target genes for cancer therapy is a significant challenge of biomedical research. Here, we describe a computational pipeline, which integrates transcriptomic and vulnerability responses to cell-death inducing drugs, to predict repressors of cell-death as candidate targets for cancer therapy. The candidate target genes were predicted based on two modules: the transcriptomic similarity and the correlation modules. The transcriptomic similarity module identified genes whose targeting results in similar transcriptomic responses of the death-inducing drugs, while the correlation module identified candidate genes whose expression was correlated to the vulnerability to the death-inducing drugs. The combined predictors generated by these two modules were integrated into a single ranked metric. As a proof-of-concept, we selected ferroptosis inducers as death-inducing drugs, and triple negative breast cancer as a cancer model. The pipeline could predict candidate genes as ferroptosis repressors, as demonstrated by computational and experimental validation, including experimental data of 9 representative genes, thus, highlighting the robustness and power of this pipeline. The described pipeline can be used to identify repressors of different cell-death pathways as potential therapeutic targets for various cancer types.

Hypoxia-induced stem-like cancer cells resistance to VEGFR inhibition

Project description:Developing strategies to overcome the frequent resistance to VEGF/VEGFR inhibitors in patients is a major challenge in antiangiogenic therapy for cancer. Targeting the VEGF pathway in vivo induces hypoxia and therefore enables to study drug-induced hypoxia in tumors. Hypoxia also occurs in the spontaneous evolution of cancers, particularly around areas of necrosis. Using cell markers such as CD133, CXCR4, or ALDH1, we identified stem-like cells in peri-necrotic areas in human biopsies and xenografts models of renal cancers. These stem-like cells were able in vitro to self-renew, form carcinoma spheres and had a tumorigenic potency, thus showing characteristics of stem-like cancer cells. In xenografted human renal cell carcinoma, we further demonstrated a strong link between necrosis, either spontaneous or treatment-induced, and the presence of CD133/CXCR4 double positive stem-like cells. Hypoxia increased their tumorigenic potency, induced overexpression of metallothionein2A, which we here identified as critical regulator of resistance to VEGFR-inhibition.

Adverse stem cell features in a single AML sample predict clinical outcome in AML patient cohorts

Project description:Patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) suffer dismal prognosis and the most adverse subpopulation within each tumor determines patient’s prognosis. To better understand challenging features in AML, we studied individual stem cells from a single AML sample, complementing genomic with in vivo functional studies. Primary tumor cells from an AML patient’s first and second relapse were transplanted into NSG mice to establish serially transplantable patient derived xenografts (PDX). In an innovative approach, twelve derivative PDX clones were generated thereof, each derived from a single AML stem cell as proven by molecular barcoding, and were color-marked to facilitate multiplex competitive in vivo assays. PDX clones consisted of four different genomic clusters; one cluster displayed resistance against Cytarabine treatment, while two other clusters harbored increased stem cell potential, indicating that stemness and treatment resistance had evolved independently in the sample. In vivo functional data correlated closely with the phylogenetic tree calculated from exome data. The Cytarabine-resistant cluster was characterized by a distinct gene expression profile, and a score thereof predicted outcome in large clinical patient data cohorts. Taken together, we provide proof of concept that intra-sample heterogeneity mimics inter-sample heterogeneity in AML. Stem cell disparities within a single sample allow insights into adverse characteristics of general importance for AML.

Breast Cancer Stem Cells Regulated Phenotypic Equilibrium Drives Tamoxifen Resistance

Project description:Breast cancers consist of heterogeneous cellular subpopulations that differ in molecular properties and functional attributes. Cancer cells display phenotypic equilibrium between the stem-like and differentiated states during neoplastic homeostasis. The mechanism and functional implications of the subpopulation equilibrium in cancer progression remain largely unknown. Herein, we report that BCSCs secretome conditioned bulk tumor cells developed resistance to anti-endocrine therapy both in vitro and in vivo. IL8 was significantly enriched in BCSCs secretome and blockade of IL8 signaling reversed the tamoxifen resistance induced by BCSCs. The enhanced Wnt/β-catenin signal simultaneously increased the secretion of IL8 in BCSCs, which leads to the seemingly contradictory behaviors of bulk tumor cells. Collectively, our study characterizes the paracrine effects and identifies key molecules secreted by BCSCs, which may become therapeutic vulnerabilities to overcome tamoxifen resistance.

Computational modeling to predict the functions and impact of drug transporters.

Project description:Transport proteins are important mediators of cellular drug influx and efflux and play crucial roles in drug distribution, disposition and clearance. Drug-drug interactions have increasingly been found to occur at the transporter level and, hence, computational tools for studying drug-transporter interactions have gained in interest. In this short review, we present the most important transport proteins for drug influx and efflux. Computational tools for predicting and understanding the substrate and inhibitor interactions with these membrane-bound proteins are discussed. We have primarily focused on ligand-based and structure-based modeling, for which the state-of-the-art and future challenges are also discussed.
