Stromal contribution to expression signatures of colorectal cancer (CRC tumor)

ABSTRACT: We noticed that a recently identified poor prognosis stem/serrated molecular subtype of colorectal cancer (CRC) is characterized by up-regulation of transcripts known to be also expressed by stromal cells. To better define the origin of such transcripts, we analyzed RNAseq and microarray datasets from CRC mouse xenografts, where human cancer cells are supported by murine stroma. The analysis revealed that mRNA levels of stem/serrated subtype genes are mostly due to stromal expression, even when the stromal fraction is below 5%. Indeed, a classifier based on genes exclusively expressed by cancer-associated fibroblasts was significantly associated, in multiple datasets, to poor prognosis of CRC and to radioresistance of rectal cancer.

Impaired immunosurveillance by the simultaneous loss of both atypical PKCs drives serrated intestinal cancer

Project description:The serrated adenocarcinoma subtype accounts for 15-30% of all colorectal cancers (CRCs) and is aggressive and treatment-resistant. it is an alternative mechanism for CRC development characterized by dysregulation of the MAPK pathway. We show that human serrated tumors display reduced expression of PKCz and PKCl/i, and that the simultaneous inactivation of these genes in the mouse intestinal epithelium resulted in spontaneous tumorigenesis through the serrated pathway that progressed to advanced cancer. Whereas epithelial PKCl/i deficiency led to immunogenic cell death that repressed tumor initiation, interferon and CD8+ T cell responses were impaired concomitant with stromal activation and immunosuppression driven by PKCz loss. Thus, PKCz and PKCl/i cooperatively suppress serrated tumorigenesis. Targeting this stromal activation and immunosuppression showed synergistic curative activity.

BCL9 provides multi-cellular communication properties in colorectal cancer by interacting with paraspeckle proteins

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer, which despite recent advances in treatment, remains incurable due to molecular heterogeneity of tumor cells. The B-cell lymphoma 9 (BCL9) oncogene functions as a transcriptional co-activator of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, which plays critical roles in CRC pathogenesis. Here we have identified a β-catenin-independent function of BCL9 in a poor-prognosis subtype of CRC tumors characterized by expression of stromal and neural associated genes. In response to spontaneous calcium transients or cellular stress, BCL9 is recruited adjacent to the interchromosomal regions, where it stabilizes the mRNA of calcium signaling and neural associated genes by interacting with paraspeckle proteins. BCL9 subsequently promotes tumor progression and remodeling of the tumor microenvironment (TME) by sustaining the calcium transients and neurotransmitter-dependent communication among CRC cells. These data provide additional insights into the role of BCL9 in tumor pathogenesis and point towards additional avenues for therapeutic intervention.

mRNA-seq analysis of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cell line OC3 and TW2.6 derived xenografts (CDXs)

Project description:In many solid tumors, tissue of mesenchymal subtype is frequently associated with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) state, strong stromal infiltration, and poor prognosis. Emerging evidence from tumor ecosystem studies indicate that the stromal components, including cancer associated fibroblast (CAFs), actively participate in cancer growth and progression. Transcriptomic analysis of xenograft tissues provides a unique advantage in dissecting hallmark genes of tumor (human) or stromal (murine) origins.

Classification of serrated colorectal tumors

Project description:Serrated adenocarcinomas are morphologically different from conventional adenocarcinomas. The serrated pathway has recently been proposed to represent a novel mechanism of colorectal cancer (CRC) formation. However, whether they are biologically different and truly form a distinct subclass of CRC, is not known. This study shows that the gene expression profile of serrated and conventional CRCs differs from each others and that serrated CRCs are not only morphologically novel, but also biologically distinct subclass of CRC. Keywords: molecular classification

Genetic editing of colonic organoids provides a molecularly distinct and orthotopic preclinical model of serrated carcinogenesis.

Project description:Objective: Serrated colorectal cancer (CRC) accounts for approximately 25% of cases, and includes tumours that are amongst the most treatment resistant and with worst outcomes. This CRC subtype is associated with activating mutations in the mitogen activated kinase (MAPK) pathway gene, BRAF, and epigenetic modifications termed the CpG Island Methylator Phenotype (CIMP), leading to epigenetic silencing of key tumour suppressor genes. It is still not clear which (epi-)genetic changes are most important in neoplastic progression and we begin to address this knowledge gap herein. Design: We utilise organoid culture combined with CRISPR/Cas9 genome engineering, to sequentially introduce genetic alterations associated with serrated CRC and which regulate the stem cell niche, senescence and DNA mismatch repair. Results: Targeted biallelic gene alterations were verified by DNA sequencing. Organoid growth in the absence of niche factors was assessed, as well as analysis of downstream molecular pathway activity. Orthotopic engraftment of complex organoid lines, but not BrafV600E alone, quickly generated adenocarcinoma in vivo with serrated features consistent with human disease. Loss of the essential DNA mismatch repair enzyme, Mlh1, led to microsatellite instability. Sphingolipid metabolism genes are differentially regulated in both our mouse models of serrated CRC and human CRC, with key members of this pathway having prognostic significance in the human setting. Conclusion: We generate rapid, complex models of serrated CRC to determine the contribution of specific genetic alterations to carcinogenesis. Analysis of our models alongside patient data has led to the identification of a potential susceptibility for this tumour type.
