Immune effector monocyte - neutrophil cooperation induced by the primary tumor prevents metastatic progression of breast cancer

ABSTRACT: Metastatic behaviour varies significantly among breast cancers. Mechanisms explaining why the majority of breast cancer patients never develop metastatic outgrowth are largely lacking but could underlie the development of novel immunotherapeutic target molecules. Here we show interplay between non-metastatic primary breast cancer and innate immune response, acting together to control metastatic progression. The primary tumor systemically recruits IFNγ-producing immune effector monocytes to the lung. IFNγ upregulates Tmem173/STING in neutrophils and enhances their killing capacity. The immune effector monocytes and tumoricidal Tmem173/STINGhigh neutrophils target disseminated tumor cells in the lungs, preventing metastatic outgrowth. Importantly, our findings could underlie the development of immunotherapeutic target molecules that augment the function of immune effector monocytes and Tmem173high neutrophils.

Transcriptomic and nuclear architecture of immune cells after LPS-activation

Project description:Changes in the nuclear positioning of specific genes, depending on their expression status, have been observed in a large diversity of physiological processes. However, gene position is poorly documented in immune cells subjected to activation upon bacterial infection. Using the pig as a model organism, we focused our study on monocytes-derived macrophages and neutrophils, the first lines of defense against pathogens. We examine whether changes in gene expression due to LPS-activation imply genes repositioning in the nuclear space. A transcriptomic analysis was first performed to identify the genes differentially expressed and analyse the networks implicated during LPS-IFNγ activation in monocytes-derived macrophages. This allowed us to select 4 up-regulated (IL1β, IL8, CXCL10 and TNFα) and 4 down-regulated (VIM, LGALS3, TUBA3, and IGF2) genes to be further studied by 3D-FISH for their behavior in the nuclear space, particularly towards their chromosome territories (CT) during macrophages activation. Among the 4 up-regulated genes, 3 changed their position during the activation process while the 4 down-regulated ones did not. The analysis of gene behaviors towards their CT was extended to neutrophils for 3 up- and 2 down-regulated genes and similar results were obtained. Our data suggest that relocation in the nuclear space of genes differentially expressed in activated immune cells is gene specific and concern mostly up-regulated ones. Porcine monocyte-derived macrophages: Control vs. LPS-IFNγ activated vs. T-2 toxin/LPS-IFNγ activated. A common reference hybridization scheme was used to compare the three-condition experiment, CM vs. AM vs. TAM. The reference consisted of a pool of RNA from all samples. Biological replicates: 5 control, 5 LPS-IFNγ activated, 5 T-2 toxin/LPS-IFNγ activated independently. One replicate per array.

MLL3 Loss Drives Metastasis by Promoting a Hybrid Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition State [ATAC-seq]

Project description:Phenotypic plasticity associated with the hybrid epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) state is crucial to metastatic seeding and outgrowth. We showed that deletion of the epigenetic regulator MLL3, a tumor suppressor frequently altered in human cancer, promoted the acquisition of the hybrid EMT state in both epithelial and mesenchymal breast cancer cells by facilitating EMT and MET, distinct from other known EMT regulators mediating unidirectional changes. MLL3 deletion greatly increased metastasis by enhancing metastatic outgrowth during colonization. Mechanistically, MLL3 loss led to IFNγ signaling upregulation, which contributes to the induction of hybrid EMT cells and the enhanced metastatic capacity.

MLL3 Loss Drives Metastasis by Promoting a Hybrid Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition State [ChIP-seq UTX and MLL4]

Project description:Phenotypic plasticity associated with the hybrid epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) state is crucial to metastatic seeding and outgrowth.

Consequently, MLL3 deletion greatly increased metastasis by enhancing metastatic outgrowth during colonization.

Activation of a collaborative innate-adaptive immune response suppresses metastatic breast and ovarian cancer in mice

Project description:Many cancers recruit monocytes/macrophages and polarize them into tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs). TAMs promote tumor growth and metastasis and inhibit cytotoxic T cells, preventing immune control of the cancer. However, macrophages polarized by lipopolysaccharide (a bacteria-derived toll-like receptor 4 [TLR4] agonist) and interferon gamma (IFNγ) instead kill cancer cells. They do so via nitric oxide (NO), generated by inducible NO synthase (iNOS). Altering the polarization of macrophages might therefore be a strategy for controlling tumors. Here, we show that monophosphoryl lipid A (MPLA, a TLR4 agonist used as a vaccine adjuvant)- and IFNγ-activated human macrophages from metastatic breast cancers to kill the same patients’ cancer cells in vitro. Excitingly, intratumoral injection of MPLA with IFNγ not only controlled local tumor growth but also led to reduced metastasis in mouse models of metastatic luminal and triple negative breast cancers. Furthermore, intraperitoneal administration of MPLA and IFNγ reprogrammed peritoneal macrophages and suppressed metastasis in ID8-p53-/- ovarian tumor-bearing mice. We found that the combination of MPLA and IFNγ reprogrammed the immunosuppressive microenvironment to be immunostimulatory by recruiting leukocytes, stimulating type I interferon signaling, reprogramming tumor-associated (CD206+) macrophages to tumoricidal (iNOS+) macrophages, and activating cytotoxic T cells through macrophage-secreted IL12 and TNFα. Both macrophages and T cells, including memory T cells (CD44+CD62L-), were critical for the anti-metastatic effects of MPLA and IFNγ. MPLA and IFNγ are used individually in humans, so our strategy to engage the anti-tumor immune response, which requires no knowledge of unique tumor antigens, may be ready for near-future clinical testing.

Spatial and temporal mapping of breast cancer lung metastases identify TREM2 macrophages at the metastatic boundary

Project description:Cancer mortality is primarily caused by metastatic recurrence, whereby tumor cells evade immune surveillance. Better understanding of the molecular and cellular events that occur in metastatic niches is essential to develop effective immunotherapies targeting metastasis. We employed a model of spontaneous breast cancer lung metastasis to create a single-cell RNA-sequencing temporal and spatial atlas that spans different metastatic stages and regions. We found that pre-metastatic lungs are infiltrated by inflammatory neutrophils and monocytes, followed by accumulation of suppressive macrophages with the emergence of metastases. Metastasis-associated immune cells are present in the metastasis core, with the exception of Trem2+ regulatory macrophages uniquely enriched in the metastatic invasive margin. These regulatory macrophages contribute to the formation of an immune-suppressive niche, cloaking the tumor cells from immune surveillance. Our study provides a comprehensive chart of immune cell dynamics across metastatic stages and niches, which could inform the development of immunotherapies that target metastasis.

Single-cell RNA-sequencing of murine breast tumor infiltrating immune cells isolated from the site of metastasis in wild-type and short-form Ron knockout mice

Project description:Metastatic breast cancer is the overwhelming cause of breast cancer mortality and is still incurable. Development of immunotherapy is an exciting new area of research in metastatic breast cancer; however, the extreme immunosuppressive tumor environment poses a major challenge. Here we provide evidence that a particular isoform of Ron kinase, short-form Ron (SF-Ron), strongly suppresses anti-tumor immune responses and promotes metastatic outgrowth of mammary tumors. We used single-cell RNA-sequencing to identify the CD45+ immune cell populations within the common site of breast cancer metastasis, lung, from either wild-type (WT) or SF-Ron knockout (Ron SF-/-) in the MMTV-PyMT experimental metastasis model. SF-Ron was required for breast cancer metastasis develoment and the skewing of the lung immune microenvironment toward the immune-suppressive pro-tumor microenvironment. Lack of SF-Ron not only enhanced tumor-specific immune response, but also led to accumulation of less differentiated TCF1+ CD4+ T cells in the metastatic lungs that were endowed with type I helper T cell-like (Th1-like) differentiation potential. Mice treated with a small molecule Ron kinase inhibitor produced significantly more tumor-specific CD8+ T cells and reduced metastatic outgrowth. Our study indicates that blocking Ron, specifically SF-Ron, remodels the metastatic lung microenvironment to enhance anti-tumor immunity and clear metastatic lesions, providing strong pre-clinical evidence for Ron kinase inhibitors to augment immunotherapy for treatment of metastatic breast cancer.

Maintenance of epithelial traits and resistance to mesenchymal reprogramming promote proliferation in metastatic breast cancer [ATAC-seq]

Project description:Despite important advances in the treatment of breast cancer, the 5-year survival rate for patients with distant metastasis remains less than 30%. Metastasis is a complex, multi-step process beginning with local invasion and ending with the outgrowth of systemically disseminated cells into actively proliferating metastases that ultimately cause the destruction of vital organs. It is this last step that limits patient survival and, at the same time, remains the least understood mechanistically. Here, we focus on understanding determinants of metastatic outgrowth using metastatic effusion biopsies from stage IV breast cancer patients. By modelling metastatic outgrowth through xenograft transplantation, we show that tumour initiation potential of patient-derived metastatic breast cancer cells across breast cancer subtypes is strongly linked to high levels of EPCAM expression. Breast cancer cells with high EPCAM levels are highly plastic and, upon induction of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), readily adopt mesenchymal traits while maintaining epithelial identity. In contrast, low EPCAM levels are caused by the irreversible reprogramming to a mesenchymal state with concomitant suppression of metastatic outgrowth. The ability of breast cancer cells to retain epithelial traits is tied to a global epigenetic program that limits the actions of EMT-transcription factor ZEB1, a suppressor of epithelial genes. Our results provide direct evidence that maintenance of epithelial identity is required for metastatic outgrowth while concomitant expression of mesenchymal markers enables plasticity. In contrast, loss of epithelial traits is characteristic of an irreversible mesenchymal reprogramming associated to a deficiency for metastatic outgrowth. Collectively, our data provide a framework for the intricate intercalation of mesenchymal and epithelial traits in metastatic growth.
