B16 versus B16B1

ABSTRACT: Analysis of gene expression patterns in cancer improved the understanding the mechanisms underlying the process of metastatic progression. Recent studies have attributed an important role to B-1 cells, a subset of B lymphocytes, in melanoma progression. It was already demonstrated that in vitro interaction between B16 melanoma cells and B-1 lymphocytes induced increase in metastatic potential of B16 lineage. In this study we used a microarray approach to assess gene expression profile in B16 melanoma cells after contacting B-1 lymphocytes (B16B1).

The analysis of gene expression patterns in cancers has improved the understanding of the mechanisms underlying the process of metastatic progression. However, the acquisition of invasive behavior in melanoma is poorly understood. In melanoma, components of the immune system can contribute to tumor progression, and inflammatory cells can influence almost all aspects of cancer progression, including metastasis. Recent studies have attributed an important role to B-1 cells, a subset of B lymphocyt ...[more]

Project description:Tumor cell invasion and metastasis are hallmarks of malignancy. Despite recent advances in the understanding of lymphatic spread, the mechanisms by which tumors metastasize to sentinel/distant lymph nodes and beyond are poorly understood. To gain new insights into this complex process, we established a highly metastatic melanoma cell line (B16F1-variant) by in vivo passaging the B16 parental cell line through the lymphatic system. Here, we characterized morphology, rate of cell proliferation, colony formation, migration, tumorogenicity, lymph flow, and capacities to induce tumor- and sentinel lymph node- lymphangiogenesis. Furthermore, microarray-based comparative analysis bewteen parental and passaged cell lines was performed to identify specific gene expression profiles. The most differentially expressed gene was SPP (osteopontin), a secreted glycophosphoprotein which is known to be involved in cancer metastasis. Overexpression of osteopontin in B16 F1-variant was confirmed by Western blot and quantitative RT-PCR. Treatment of cultured lymphatic endothelial cells (LEC) with osteopontin promoted cell migration mediated by the integrin α9 pathway. Our results identify osteopontin as a novel lymphangiogenic factor. B16 and B16 variants were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 20% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Invitrogen, Grand Island, NY) supplemented with antibiotic-antimycotic solution. Every B16 variant was cultured in duplicates. Total cellular RNA was isolated using the Trizol reagent (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) extracted with chloroform, precipitated with isopropanol, washed with 70% ethanol, and dissolved in DNase-free/RNase-free distilled water. The concentration of RNA was measured using NanoDrop ND-1000 spectrophotometer (Witec AG, Littau, Switzerland) and RNA quality was assessed using 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA). Digoxigenin-UTP–labeled cRNA was generated and amplified from 500ng of total RNA using the NanoAmp RT-IVT Labeling Kit (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA) following the manufacturer's protocol, and was hybridized to Applied Biosystems Mouse Genome Survey Microarrays V2.0. Chemiluminescence detection, image acquisition, and analysis were performed using the Chemiluminescence Detection Kit (Applied Biosystems) and the Applied Biosystems 1700 Chemiluminescent Microarray Analyzer following the manufacturer's protocol. A total of two biological replicates were generated for each B16 variant and each cell line data consisted of pooled RNA of two diffferent passage numbers.

Project description:Endothelial inflammation contributes to the pathogenesis of numerous human diseases; however, the role of tumor endothelial inflammation in the growth of experimental tumors and its influence on the prognosis of human cancers is less understood. TNF-M-NM-1, an important mediator of tumor stromal inflammation, is known to target the tumor vasculature. In this study, we demonstrate that B16-F1 melanomas grew more rapidly in C57BL/6 wild-type (WT) mice than in syngeneic mice with germline deletions of both TNF-M-NM-1 receptors (KO). This enhanced tumor growth was associated with increased COX2 inflammatory expression in WT tumor endothelium compared to endothelium in KO mice. We purified endothelial cells from WT and KO tumors and characterized dysregulated gene expression, which ultimately formed the basis of a 6-gene Inflammation-Related Endothelial-derived Gene (IREG) signature. This inflammatory signature expressed in WT tumor endothelial cells was trained in human cancer datasets and predicted a poor clinical outcome in breast cancer, colon cancer, lung cancer and glioma. Consistent with this observation, conditioned media from human endothelial cells treated with pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-M-NM-1 and interferons) accelerated the growth of human colon and breast tumors in immune-deprived mice as compared with conditioned media from untreated endothelial cells. These findings demonstrate that activation of endothelial inflammatory pathways contributes to tumor growth and progression in diverse human cancers. To investigate the genes associated with TNF-M-NM-1 signaling in tumor endothelium, we performed expression profiling of tumor-associated endothelial cells isolated from B16F1 tumors grown in syngeneic TNFR 1, 2 -/- (KO) and C57BL/6 (WT) mice. Tumor endothelial cells were isolated from WT and KO tumors when tumor volumes were ~180 mm^3. This was based on a stepwise immunopurification of combined tumor tissue (Seaman, S. et al. Genes that distinguish physiological and pathological angiogenesis. Cancer Cell 11, 539-54 (2007)). Tumor endothelial cells were lysed to collect total RNA and analyzed in duplicates with Affymetrix GeneChipM-BM-. Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Arrays.
