Project description:How stroma communicates with cancer to influence treatment response is poorly understood. We show that stromal fibroblasts protect breast cancer (BrCa) against radiation and chemotherapy through an exosome-mediated anti-viral pathway and NOTCH3. Stroma increases RAB27B and transfers exosomes to BrCa. RNA within exosomes, comprised largely of non-coding transcripts and transposable elements, stimulates the pattern recognition receptor RIG-I through a 5’-triphosphate motif to activate STAT1. BrCa NOTCH3 is activated in parallel by stromal JAG1 and cooperates with STAT1 to enhance transcriptional responses of NOTCH target genes and to expand therapy resistant tumor-initiating cells. Computational modeling using primary human and mouse BrCa supports the interaction of anti-viral/NOTCH3 pathways in controlling NOTCH target genes and treatment resistance, particularly in basal subtype tumors. Gamma secretase inhibitors reverse stromal protection and abrogate radiation resistance in vivo. Thus, stroma orchestrates an intricate cross-talk with BrCa by utilizing exosomes to coax anti-viral signaling that expands therapy resistant cells through druggable pathways.

Project description:Stromal communication with cancer cells can influence treatment response. We show that stromal and breast cancer (BrCa) cells utilize paracrine and juxtacrine signaling to drive chemotherapy and radiation resistance. Upon heterotypic interaction, exosomes are transferred from stromal to BrCa cells. RNA within exosomes, which are largely non-coding transcripts and transposable elements, stimulates the pattern recognition receptor RIG-I to activate STAT1-dependent anti-viral signaling. In parallel, stromal cells also activate NOTCH3 on BrCa cells. The paracrine anti-viral and juxtacrine NOTCH3 pathways converge as STAT1 facilitates transcriptional responses to NOTCH3 and expands therapy resistant tumor-initiating cells. Primary human and/or mouse BrCa analysis support the role of anti-viral/NOTCH3 pathways in NOTCH signaling and stroma-mediated resistance, which is abrogated by combination therapy with gamma secretase inhibitors. Thus, stromal cells orchestrate an intricate cross-talk with BrCa cells by utilizing exosomes to instigate anti-viral signaling. This expands BrCa subpopulations adept at resisting therapy and re-initiating tumor growth. Breast cancer cells lines and MRC5 fibroblasts were mono-cultured or co-cultured together. Cell types were separated by FACS and gene expression changes were examined using the Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0ST arrays. The effect of tumor-stromal cell interaction on different breast cancer cell types was analyzed using biological replicates. Gene expression changes resulting from knockdown of STAT1 was also investigated.

Project description:<p>The composition and physical properties of the extracellular matrix (ECM) critically influence tumor progression, but the molecular mechanisms underlying ECM layering are poorly understood. Tumor-stroma interaction is critically dependent on cell-cell communication mediated by exosomes, small vesicles generated within multivesicular bodies (MVBs). Here, we show that caveolin-1 (Cav1) is a central modulator of both exosome biogenesis and exosomal protein cargo sorting through the regulation of cholesterol content at the endosomal compartment/MVBs. Quantitative proteomics profiling revealed that Cav1 is required for exosomal sorting of ECM protein cargo subsets including tenascin-C (TnC), and for fibroblast-derived exosomes to efficiently depose ECM and promote tumor cell invasiveness. Cav1-driven exosomal ECM deposition not only promotes local stromal remodeling, but also the generation of distant ECM-enriched stromal niches. These results support a model by which Cav1 is a central regulatory hub for tumor-stroma interactions through a novel exosome-dependent ECM deposition mechanism.</p><p><br></p><p>Linked studies: <a href='https://www.ebi.ac.uk/metabolights/MTBLS1977' rel='noopener noreferrer' target='_blank'>MTBLS1977</a></p>

Project description:Cancer immunotherapy has revolutionized the treatment of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD); however, a significant fraction of patients fails to respond. Recent studies to understand transcriptomic determinants of immunotherapy response have pinpointed stroma-mediated resistance mechanisms. To gain a better understanding of the stromal biology at the cellular and molecular levels in LUAD, we obtained the transcriptomes of 256,379 single cells with 13,857 mesenchymal cells from 9 treatment-naïve patients. Among the mesenchymal cells, we identify subsets of FAP+PDPN+ cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and ACTA2+MCAM+ pericytes, which enrich in tumors, differentiate from lung resident fibroblasts and possess a myofibroblast phenotype. By utilizing imaging-mass cytometry, we found that both subsets are topographically adjacent to the perivascular niche and have close spatial interaction with endothelial cells (ECs). Modelling of ligand and receptor interactomes between mesenchymal and ECs identifies that NOTCH3/NOTCH signaling drives the cell-cell interaction in tumors, with pericytes and CAFs as the signal receivers and arterial and PLVAPhigh immature neovascular ECs as the signal senders. Either pharmacologically blocking NOTCH signaling or tuning down NOTCH3 level in mesenchymal cells reduced collagen production and suppressed cell invasion. By evaluating the clinical relevance of NOTCH signaling using bulk-RNA sequencing data, we demonstrate that NOTCH3 correlates with poor survival in stroma-rich patients and that a T-cell inflammation gene signature predicts survival only in low-NOTCH3 expressing patients. Our study underscores the importance of NOTCH3 in regulating tumor stroma biology and may serve as a potential target for immunotherapy combination strategies.

Project description:Background: Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is a natural compound with anticancer and anti-angiogenesis activity that is currently under investigation as both a preventative agent and an adjuvant to breast cancer therapy. However, the precise mechanisms of DHA’s anticancer activities are unclear. It is understood that the intercommunication between cancer cells and their microenvironment is essential to tumor angiogenesis. Exosomes are extracellular vesicles that are important mediators of intercellular communication and play a role in promoting angiogenesis. However, very little is known about the contribution of breast cancer exosomes to tumor angiogenesis or whether exosomes can mediate DHA’s anticancer action. Results: Exosomes were collected from MCF7 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells after treatment with DHA. We observed an increase in exosome secretion and exosome microRNA contents from the DHA-treated cells. The expression of 83 microRNAs in the MCF7 exosomes was altered by DHA (>2-fold). The most abundant exosome microRNAs (let-7a, miR-23b, miR-27a/b, miR-21, let-7, and miR-320b) are known to have anti-cancer and/or anti-angiogenic activity. These microRNAs were also increased by DHA treatment in the exosomes from other breast cancer lines (MDA-MB-231, ZR751 and BT20), but not in exosomes from normal breast cells (MCF10A). When DHA-treated MCF7 cells were co-cultured with or their exosomes were directly applied to endothelial cell cultures, we observed an increase in the expression of these microRNAs in the endothelial cells. Furthermore, overexpression of miR-23b and miR-320b in endothelial cells decreased the expression of their pro-angiogenic target genes (PLAU, AMOTL1, NRP1 and ETS2) and significantly inhibited tube formation by endothelial cells, suggesting that the microRNAs transferred by exosomes mediate DHA’s anti-angiogenic action. These effects could be reversed by knockdown of the Rab GTPase, Rab27A, which controls exosome release. Conclusions: We conclude that DHA alters breast cancer exosome secretion and microRNA contents, which leads to the inhibition of angiogenesis. Our data demonstrate that breast cancer exosome signaling can be targeted to inhibit tumor angiogenesis and provide new insight into DHA’s anticancer action, further supporting its use in cancer therapy. Examination of small RNA populations in MCF7 cells and exosomes after DHA treatment.

Project description:Exososmes, potent intercellular communicators, are supposed to contribute to metastasis formation, which we confirmed for exosomes of the metastatic rat pancreatic adenocarcinoma line BSp73ASML that promote metastatic settlement in lymph nodes and lung of poorly metastatic BSp73ASML cells with a selective CD44v4-v7 (BSp73ASML-CD44vkd) knockdown. To define the molecular pathway(s), whereby exosomes contribute to premetastatic niche preparation, we profiled mRNA miRNA of BSp73ASMLwt and BSp73ASML-CD44vkd- exosomes and evaluated the impact on potential target cells. BSp73ASML exosomes are recovered in the draining lymph node after subcutaneous injection. In vitro, they preferentially bind and are taken-up by lymph node stroma cells (LnStr) and lung fibroblasts (LuFb) that were chosen as exosome targets. BSp73ASMLwt and BSp73ASML-CD44kd exosomes contain a restricted repertoire of mRNA and miRNA, hwere the lattter differe significantly between the two lines and even more pronounced, exosomes derived thereof with a not yet explored dominance of tumor-suppressor miRNA in ASML-CD44kd cells and exosomes. Both, exosomal mRNA and miRNA are recovered in target cells and exosome-uptake is accompanied by significant changes in gene expression. We didn't observe a correlation between exosomal mRNA and changes in target cell mRNA or proteins. Instead transferred miRNA significantly affected target cell mRNA translation as demonstrated for selected, most abundant ASML exosomal miRNA besides others, miR-494 known target MAL (myelin and lymphocytes protein)/cadherin17, and miR-542-3p which targets TRAF/cadherin17. Furthermore, MMP transcription suggested to accompany cadherin17 dwon-regulation was upregulated in miR-494 or miR542-3p transfected or exosome co-cultured LnStr. Taken together, tumor exosomes target in vivo non-transformed cells in premetastatic organs. Exosome uptake induced altered target celll gene expression is strongly promoted by exosomal miRNA where we demonstrate for the first time that exosomes/exosomal miRNA from a metastasizing tumor line can modulate stroma cells from premetastatic organs. Endothelial cells lines were treated with pancreatic adenocarcinoma (AS) derived exosomes or pancreatic adenocarcinoma derived exosomes expressing tetraspanin 8. Total RNA was isolated and used to perform the Agilent gene expression microarrays. In this assay a replicate of endothelial cell lines treated with ASTspan8 were also included. Moreover, total RNA from both base line expression of endothelial cells and rat endothelial fibroblasts were also used to perfrom gene expression microarrays. RNA isolated from Rat endothelial fibroblasts treated with the exosomes derived from rat pancreatic adenocarcinoma and exosomes derived from rat pancreatic adenocarcinoma expressing tetraspanin8 were individually used to perfrom gene expression microarrays. RNA isolated from exosomes derived from rat pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell lines expressing tetraspanin were used to peform gene expresiion to see the base line expression. Another replicate were also used. RNA isolated from base line or control of rat pancreatic adenocarcinoma wild type cells and also base line RNA isolated from rat pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells lines where CD44 was knock-down.
