Human Tumor-Associated Macrophage and Monocyte Transcriptional Landscapes Reveal Cancer-Specific Reprogramming, Biomarkers, and Therapeutic Targets

ABSTRACT: The roles of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and circulating monocytes in human cancer are poorly understood. Here, we show that monocyte subpopulation distribution and transcriptomes are significantly altered by the presence of endometrial and breast cancer. Furthermore, TAMs from endometrial and breast cancers are transcriptionally distinct from monocytes and their respective tissue-resident macrophages. We identified a breast TAM signature that is highly enriched in aggressive breast cancer subtypes and associated with shorter disease-specific survival. We also identified an auto-regulatory loop between TAMs and cancer cells driven by tumor necrosis factor alpha involving SIGLEC1 and CCL8, which is self- reinforcing through the production of CSF1. Together these data provide direct evidence that monocyte and macrophage transcriptional landscapes are perturbed by cancer, reflecting patient outcomes.

PFKFB3 overexpression in monocytes of patients with colon but not rectal cancer programs pro-tumor macrophages and is indicative for higher risk of tumor relapse [GeoMx]

Project description:Circulating monocytes are main source for tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) that control tumor growth, angiogenesis, metastasis and therapy resistance. We raised the questions how monocyte programming is affected by growing tumors localized in colon and rectal sections, and how treatment onsets affect monocyte programming in the circulation. Patients with rectal cancer and colon cancer were enrolled in the study. Spatial transcriptomic analysis was applied using GeoMX DSP-NGS. The key transcriptional difference between monocytes of patients with colon and rectal cancer was increased expression of PFKFB3, activator of glycolysis that is currently considered as therapy target for major solid cancers. PFKFB3-expressing monocyte-derived macrophages massively infiltrated tumor in colon. Nanostring technology identified correlation of PFKFB3 with amount and tumor-promoting properties of TAMs in colon but not in rectal cancer.

PFKFB3 overexpression in monocytes of patients with colon but not rectal cancer programs pro-tumor macrophages and is indicative for higher risk of tumor relapse [RNAseq]

Project description:Circulating monocytes are main source for tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) that control tumor growth, angiogenesis, metastasis and therapy resistance. We raised the questions how monocyte programming is affected by growing tumors localized in colon and rectal sections, and how treatment onsets affect monocyte programming in the circulation. Patients with rectal cancer and colon cancer were enrolled in the study. Peripheral blood monocytes were characterized by transcriptomic analysis using RNA sequencing. NGS analysis identified tumor-specific transcriptional programming of monocytes in all CRC patients compared to healthy individuals. The analysis also identified difference between colon and rectal cancer monocytes and chemotherapy effects on monocyte profile in rectal cancer.

RNAseq analysis of human macrophages differentiated from monocytes exposed to extracellular vesicles from tumor cells or recombinant CSF-1

Project description:Tumor associated macrophages (TAMs), which differentiate from circulating monocytes, are pervasive across human cancers and comprise heterogeneous populations. The contribution of tumor-derived signals to TAM heterogeneity is not well understood. In particular, tumors release both soluble factors and extracellular vesicles (EVs), whose respective impact on TAM precursors may be different. Here, we show that triple negative breast cancer cells (TNBC) release EVs and soluble molecules promoting monocyte differentiation towards distinct macrophage fates.

Mouse modeling dissecting macrophage-breast cancer communication uncovered roles of PYK2 in macrophage recruitment and breast tumorigenesis

Project description:Macrophage infiltration in mammary tumors is associated with enhanced tumor progression, metastasis, and poor clinical outcome, and considered as target for therapeutic intervention. Here we used different genetic mouse models and show that ablation of the tyrosine kinase PYK2, either in breast cancer cells, only in the tumor microenvironment, or both, markedly reduced the number of infiltrating tumor macrophages and concomitantly inhibited tumor angiogenesis and tumor growth. Strikingly, PYK2 depletion only in macrophages was sufficient to induce similar effects. These phenotypic changes were associated with reduced monocyte recruitment and a substantial decrease in tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs). Mechanistically, we show that PYK2 mediates mutual communication between breast cancer cells and macrophages through critical effects on key receptor signaling. Specifically, PYK2 ablation inhibited Notch1 signaling and consequently reduced CCL2 secretion by breast cancer cells, and concurrently reduced the levels of CCR2, CXCR4, IL4R, and Stat6 activation in macrophages. These bidirectional effects modulate monocyte recruitment, macrophage polarization and tumor angiogenesis. PYK2 expression is correlated with infiltrated macrophages in breast cancer patients, and its significant effects on macrophage infiltration and their pro-tumorigenic phenotype suggest that PYK2 targeting can be utilized as an effective strategy to modulate TAMs and possibly sensitize breast cancer to immunotherapy.

Expression profiling macrophage subsets [P1991]

Project description:Experiments expression profile several FACS-sorted pancreas tumor-associated macrophages. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are essential components of the cancer microenvironment and play critical roles in the regulation of tumor progression. Optimal therapeutic intervention requires in-depth understanding of the sources that sustain macrophages in malignant tissues. In this study, we investigated the ontogeny of TAMs in murine pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) models. We identified both inflammatory monocytes and tissue-resident macrophages as sources of TAMs. Unexpectedly, significant portions of pancreas-resident macrophages originate during embryonic development and expand through in situ proliferation during tumor progression. While monocyte-derived TAMs play more potent roles in antigen presentation, embryonically derived TAMs exhibit a pro-fibrotic transcriptional profile, indicative of their role in producing and remodeling extracellular matrix molecules. Collectively, these findings uncover the heterogeneity of TAM origin and functions, and could provide therapeutic insight for PDAC treatment.

Expression data from cultured mouse bone-marrow monocytes.

Project description:Retinoic acid signaling regulates monocyte differentiation into dendritic cells or macrophages. We used microarrays to uncover gene expression changes associated with retinoic acid exposure in mouse monocytes. The immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) is a major barrier to immunotherapy. Within solid tumors, why monocytes preferentially differentiate into immunosuppressive tumor associated macrophages (TAMs) but not immunostimulatory dendritic cells (DCs) remains unclear. Using multiple murine sarcoma models, we found that the TME induced retinoic acid (RA) production by tumor cells, which polarized intratumoral monocyte differentiation towards TAMs and away from DCs via suppression of DC-promoting transcription factor Irf4. Genetic inhibition of RA production by tumor cells or pharmacologic inhibition of RA signaling within TME increased stimulatory monocyte-derived cells, enhanced T cell-dependent anti-tumor immunity and demonstrated striking synergy with immune checkpoint blockade. Further, RA responsive gene signature in human monocytes correlated with an immunosuppressive TME in multiple human tumors. RA has been long considered as an anti-cancer agent, but our work demonstrates its tumorigenic capability via myeloid-mediated immune suppression and provides proof of concept for targeting this pathway for tumor immunotherapy.
