Characterizing the tumor microenvironment of metastatic ovarian cancer by single cell transcriptomics

ABSTRACT: Understanding the cellular composition of the tumor microenvironment and the interactions of the cells is essential to the development of successful immunotherapies in cancer. We perform single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of 9,885 cells isolated from the omentum in 6 patients with ovarian cancer and identify 9 major cell types, including cancer, stromal, and immune cells. Transcriptional analysis of immune cells stratifies our patient samples into 2 groups: (1) high T cell infiltration (high Tinf) and (2) low T cell infiltration (low Tinf). TOX-expressing resident memory CD8+ T (CD8+ Trm) and granulysin-expressing CD4+ T cell clusters are enriched in the high Tinf group. Concurrently, we find unique plasmablast and plasma B cell clusters, and finally, NR1H2+IRF8+ and CD274+ macrophage clusters, suggesting an anti-tumor response in the high Tinf group. Our scRNA-seq study of metastatic tumor samples provides important insights in elucidating the immune response within ovarian tumors.

PRKCI promotes immune suppression in ovarian tumors through YAP1

Project description:A key feature of ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma is frequent amplification of the 3q26 locus. Here we show that PRKCI, located on the 3q26 locus is not only amplified and overexpressed in 78% of HGSC patient samples but is also expressed in early fallopian tube lesions, called Serous Tubal Intraepithelial Carcinoma. In vivo studies in a transgenic mouse model establish PRKCI as an ovarian cancer oncogene and identify YAP1 as a downstream regulator. Together, PRKCI and YAP1 regulate TNFα to promote an immune suppressive microenvironment and inhibit cytotoxic T-cell infiltration in tumors. High PRKCI expressing human ovarian tumors show decreased cytotoxic T-cell infiltration. Taken together, we identify PRKCI and YAP1 as key mediators of a tumor-promoting immune microenvironment in ovarian cancer.

Unraveling Tumor-Immune Heterogeneity in Advanced Ovarian Cancer Uncovers Immunogenic Effect of Chemotherapy [naïve]

Project description:In metastatic cancer, the degree of heterogeneity of the tumor-immune microenvironment and its molecular underpinnings remain largely unstudied. To characterize the tumor-immune interface at baseline and during neoadjuvant chemotherapy in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC), we performed immunogenomics analysis of treatment-naive and paired pre/post-chemotherapy treated samples. In treatment-naive HGSOC, we find that immune cell-excluded and inflammatory microenvironments co-exist within the same individuals and within the same tumor sites, indicating ubiquitous variability in immune cell infiltration. Analysis of tumor microenvironment cell composition, DNA copy number, mutations and gene expression showed that immune cell exclusion was associated with amplification of Myc target genes and increased expression of canonical Wnt signaling in treatment-naive HGSOC. Following neoadjuvant chemotherapy, increased natural killer cell infiltration and oligoclonal expansion of T cells were detected. We demonstrate that the tumor-immune microenvironment of advanced HGSOC is intrinsically heterogeneous and that chemotherapy induces local immune activation, suggesting that chemotherapy can potentiate the immunogenicity of immune-excluded HGSOC tumors. The goal of this particular experiment was quantify RNA expression using microarray technology, and then evaluate differences in the trasncirptomic landscape of treatment naïve metastatic high grade serous ovarian cancer.

PRKCI promotes immune suppression in ovarian cancer through YAP1

Project description:A key feature of high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) is frequent amplification of the 3q26 locus harboring PRKC-iota (PRKCI). Here, we show that PRKCI is also expressed in early fallopian tube lesions, called Serous Tubal Intraepithelial Carcinoma. Transgenic mouse studies establish PRKCI as an ovarian cancer specific oncogene and system level and functional analyses identify YAP1 as a downstream effector in tumor progression. Mechanistically, the oncogenic activity of the PRKCI-YAP1 axis relates in part to the upregulation of TNFα to promote an immune suppressive tumor microenvironment characterized by an abundance of myeloid-derived suppressor cells and inhibition of cytotoxic T cell infiltration. In human ovarian cancers, high PRKCI expression also correlates with high expression of YAP1 and low infiltration of cytotoxic T-cell. The PRKCI-YAP1 regulation of the tumor immunity provides a therapeutic strategy for highly lethal ovarian cancer. Robust multi-array average (RMA) method was used with default options (with background correction, quantile normalization, and log transformation) to normalize raw data from batches using R/Bioconductor‘s affy package

Single Cell Analyses of Renal Cell Cancers Reveal Insights into Tumor Microenvironment, Cell of Origin, and Therapy Response

Project description:Diverse subtypes of renal cell carcinomas (RCC) display a wide spectrum of histomorphologies, proteogenomic alterations, immune cell infiltration patterns, and clinical behavior. Delineating the ontogeny of these malignancies with the identification of cells of origin for different RCC subtypes will provide mechanistic insights into their diverse pathobiology. With this aim, we performed single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis of ~30,000 cells dissociated from benign human kidney and renal tumor specimens. The benign renal tissue cell atlas comprised 26 distinct cell clusters representing all known major and minor cell types, as well as two rare proximal tubule cell types (PT-B and PT-C) and one novel entity containing both intercalated and principal cell (IC-PC) phenotypes. In comparison, the tumor cell atlas was comprised of 13 different cell clusters encompassing neoplastic cells and components of the tumor microenvironment. Using a random forest model trained on the scRNA-seq data from benign tubular epithelial cell types, we predicted the putative cell of origin for more than 10 different RCC subtypes.

Breast Cancer - immune clusters - RNA-seq

Project description:In this study we use expression data from breast cancer tumors to define immune clusters in breast cancer. Immune clusters have gradual levels of immune infiltration. In the intermediate immune infiltration cluster, we found a worse prognosis which is independent of known clinicopathological features. We also found the immune clusters associated with treatment response. Further using gene expression data and deconvolution algorithms to dissect the immune contexture of the clusters.

KDM5A inhibits anti-tumor immune response through downregulation of antigen presentation pathway in ovarian cancer [CUT&RUN]

Project description:The infiltration of effector CD8+ T cells into tumors is one of the major predictors of clinical outcome for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients. Immune cell infiltration is a complex process that could be affected by the epigenetic makeup of the tumor. Here, we demonstrate that a lysine 4 histone H3 (H3K4) demethylase KDM5A impairs immune cell infiltration and inhibits anti-tumor immune response. Mechanistically, KDM5A silences genes involved in antigen processing and presentation pathway. Antigen processing and presentation is a critical step that is required for CD8+ T cells infiltration and activation of CD8+ T cell mediated anti-tumor immune response. KDM5A inhibition restores the expression of antigen presentation pathway in vitro and promotes anti-tumor immune response mediated by CD8+ T cells in vivo in a syngeneic EOC mouse model. Notably, a negative correlation between expression of KDM5A and genes involved in antigen processing and presentation pathway such as HLA-A and HLA-B is observed in the majority of cancer types. In summary, our results establish KDM5A as a regulator of CD8+ T cells tumor infiltration and demonstrate that KDM5A inhibition is a novel therapeutic strategy aiming to boost anti-tumor immune response.
