Myeloid-derived suppressor cells enhance stemness of cancer cells by inducing microRNA101 and suppressing the corepressor CtBP2.

ABSTRACT: Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and cancer stem cells (CSCs) are important cellular components in the cancer microenvironment and may affect cancer phenotype and patient outcome. The nature of MDSCs and their interaction with CSCs in ovarian carcinoma are unclear. We examined the interaction between MDSCs and CSCs in patients with ovarian carcinoma and showed that MDSCs inhibited T cell activation and enhanced CSC gene expression, sphere formation, and cancer metastasis. MDSCs triggered miRNA101 expression in cancer cells. miRNA101 subsequently repressesed the corepressor gene C-terminal binding protein-2 (CtBP2), and CtBP2 directly targeted stem cell core genes resulting in increased cancer cell stemness and increasing metastatic and tumorigenic potential. Increased MDSC density and tumor microRNA101 expression predict poor survival, as does decreased tumor CtBP2 expression, independent of each other. Collectively, our work identifies an immune-associated cellular, molecular, and clinical network involving MDSCs-microRNA101-CtBP2-stem cell core genes, which extrinsically controls cancer stemness and impacts patient outcome.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) can increase populations of myeloid-derived suppressor cells, innate immune suppressors that play an immunoregulatory role in antitumor immunity. However, the roles of myeloid-derived suppressor cells and G-CSF in renal ischemia-reperfusion injury remain unclear. METHODS:We used mouse models of ischemia-reperfusion injury to investigate whether G-CSF can attenuate renal injury by increasing infiltration of myeloid-derived suppressor cells into kidney tissue. RESULTS:G-CSF treatment before ischemia-reperfusion injury subsequently attenuated acute renal dysfunction, tissue injury, and tubular apoptosis. Additionally, G-CSF treatment suppressed renal infiltration of macrophages and T cells as well as renal levels of IL-6, MCP-1, IL-12, TNF-α, and IFN-γ, but it increased levels of IL-10, arginase-1, and reactive oxygen species. Moreover, administering G-CSF after ischemia-reperfusion injury improved the recovery of renal function and attenuated renal fibrosis on day 28. G-CSF treatment increased renal infiltration of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (F4/80-CD11b+Gr-1int), especially the granulocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cell population (CD11b+Ly6GintLy6Clow); splenic F4/80-CD11b+Gr-1+ cells sorted from G-CSF-treated mice displayed higher levels of arginase-1, IL-10, and reactive oxygen species relative to those from control mice. Furthermore, these splenic cells effectively suppressed in vitro T cell activation mainly through arginase-1 and reactive oxygen species, and their adoptive transfer attenuated renal injury. Combined treatment with anti-Gr-1 and G-CSF showed better renoprotective effects than G-CSF alone, whereas preferential depletion of myeloid-derived suppressor cells by pep-G3 or gemcitabine abrogated the beneficial effects of G-CSF against renal injury. CONCLUSIONS:G-CSF induced renal myeloid-derived suppressor cells, thereby attenuating acute renal injury and chronic renal fibrosis after ischemia-reperfusion injury. These results suggest therapeutic potential of myeloid-derived suppressor cells and G-CSF in renal ischemia-reperfusion injury.
