RNA-sequencing data of T-AP1-labeled NCI-N87 xenograft tumor cells sorted according to the fluorescence

ABSTRACT: Oxidative stress is recognazed as a hallmark of cancer. However, little is known about intratumor heterogeneity of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and its influence on tumor behavior, largely due to technical challenges inherent in detecting intratumor ROS at single-cell resolution. We have developed a tumor-targeted H2O2 probe (T-AP1) by conjugating trastuzumab with both Alexa Fluor 647 (AF647), an H2O2-insensitive fluorophore, and peroxy green 1 (PG1), an irreversible H2O2-sensitive chemical probe to provide a “ratiometric” readout, allowing H2O2 measurements independent of accumulated T-AP1 levels. Given the ability of T-AP1 to persistently mark tumor cells that experience H2O2 exposure, we employed cell sorting to isolate tumor cells with high (PG1highAF647+) and low (PG1lowAF647+) H2O2 exposure levels from T-AP1–labeled NCI-N87 xenograft tumors. PG1highAF647+ and PG1lowAF647+ cells obtained via cell sorting from three biologically independent N87 tumors were subjected to RNA sequencing.

Project description:Aims: We explore the role of elevated O2-:H2O2 ratio as a prosurvival signal in glioma-propagating cells (GPCs). We hypothesize that depleting this ratio sensitizes GPCs to apoptotic triggers. Results: We observed that elevated O2-:H2O2 ratio conferred enhanced resistance in GPCs, and depletion of this ratio by pharmacological and genetic methods sensitized cells to apopotic triggers. We established the ROS Index as a quantitative measure of normalized O2-:H2O2 ratio and determined its utility in predicting chemosensitivity. Importantly, mice implanted with GPCs of reduced ROS Index demonstrated extended survival. Analysis of tumor sections revealed effective targeting of CD133- and nestin-expressing neural precursors. Furthermore, we established the Connectivity Map to interrogate a gene signature derived from varied ROS Index for patterns of association with individual patient gene expression in 2 clinical databases. We showed that patients with reduced ROS Index demonstrate better survival. These data provide clinical evidence for the viability of our O2-:H2O2-mediated chemosensitivity profiles. Innovation and Conclusion: Gliomas are notoriously recurrent and highly infiltrative, and have been shown to arise from stem-like cells. We implicate elevated O2-:H2O2 ratio as a prosurvival signal in GPC self-renewal and proliferation. The ROS Index provides quantification of O2-:H2O2-mediated chemosensitivity, an advancement in a previously qualitative field. Intriguingly, glioma patients with reduced ROS Index correlate with longer survival and the Proneural molecular classification, a feature frequently associated with tumors of better prognosis. These data emphasize the feasibility of manipulating the O2-:H2O2 ratio as a therapeutic strategy. Total RNA from primary neurosphere culture of brain tumor specimens treated with DPI and DDC as well as non-treated CD133+ and CD133- fractions were compared. Specimens were obtained from 3 patients and replicate arrays were performed for all 3 neurosphere cultures.
