Digital Spatial Profiling Reveals Functional Shift of Enterochromaffin Cell in Patients with Ulcerative Colitis

ABSTRACT: As a major component of the enteroendocrine system, enterochromaffin (EC) cells play a key role in ulcerative colitis (UC). However, the scarcity of EC cells has limited the investigation of their function. In this study, we applied digital spatial profiling to acquire transcriptomic data for EC cells and other epithelial cells from colonoscopic biopsy samples from 8 UC patients and 7 healthy controls. Differential expression analysis, gene set enrichment analysis, and weighted gene co-expression network analysis were performed to identify differentially expressed genes and pathways and co-expression networks. Results were validated using an online dataset obtained by single-cell RNA sequencing, along with immunofluorescence staining and qRT-PCR. In healthy participants, 10 genes were significantly enriched in EC cells, functionally concentrated in protein and bioamine synthesis. A co-expression network containing 17 hub genes, including TPH1, CHGA, and GCLC, was identified in EC cells. In UC patients, EC cells gained increased capacity for protein synthesis, along with novel immunological functions such as antigen processing and presentation, whereas chemical sensation was down-regulated. The specific expression of CHGB and RGS2 in EC cells was confirmed by immunofluorescence staining. Our results illuminate the transcriptional signatures of EC cells in the human colon. EC cells’ newly observed functional shift from sensation to secretion and immunity indicate their pivotal role in UC.

Identification of CD24 interaction partners in urologic tumor cell lines

Project description:Being involved in adhesion, migration, and invasion, the highly glycosylated signal transducer CD24 (cluster of differentiation 24) has been implicated to play an essential role during carcinogenesis. Previously, the molecular and (epi)genetic regulation of CD24 has been characterized in testicular germ cell tumors (GCT). Here, CD24 was exclusively found in embryonal carcinoma (EC), which represents the stem cell like population of GCT (see project PXD025110). For a better understanding of the molecular function of CD24, this study aimed at the identification of the direct interaction partners of CD24 not only in GCTs, but also in other urologic malignancies, such as urothelial- (UC), prostate- (PC), and renal cell carcinoma (RCC). For this purpose, co-immunoprecipitations of CD24 were performed in GCT, UC, PC, and RCC cell lines, while CD24-deficient EC cells as well as IgG2a controls were included for high validity. Extracted proteome was measured by liquid-chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (LS-MS).

SRRM4 Expression and the Loss of REST Activity May Promote the Emergence of the Neuroendocrine Phenotype in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

Project description:The neuroendocrine (NE) phenotype is associated with the development of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Our objective was to characterize the molecular features of the NE phenotype in CRPC. Expression of chromogranin A (CHGA), synaptophysin (SYP), androgen receptor (AR), and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) was analyzed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) in 155 CRPC metastases from 50 patients and in 24 LuCaP prostate cancer patient-derived xenografts (PDX). Co-expression of CHGA and SYP in >30% of cells was observed in 22 of 155 metastases (9 patients); 11 of the 22 metastases were AR+/PSA+ (6 patients), 11/22 were AR-/PSA- (4 patients), and 4/24 LuCaP PDXs were AR-/PSA-. Seventy-one of 155 metastases and the 24 LuCaP xenograft lines were analyzed by whole genome microarrays. By IHC, of the 71 metastases analyzed by whole genome microarrays, 5 metastases were CHGA+/SYP+/AR- and 5 were CHGA+/SYP+/AR+. Only CHGA+/SYP+ metastases had a NE transcript signature. The neuronal transcriptional regulator SRRM4 transcript was associated with the NE signature in CHGA+/SYP+ metastases and all CHGA+/SYP+ LuCaP xenografts. Additionally, expression of SRRM4 in the LuCaP NE xenografts correlated with a splice variant of REST that lacks the transcriptional repressor domain. In conclusion, (a) metastatic NE status can be heterogeneous in the same patient, (b) the CRPC NE molecular phenotype can be defined by CHGA+/SYP+ dual positivity, (c) the NE phenotype is not necessarily associated with the loss of AR activity, and (d) the splicing of REST by SRRM4 could promote the NE phenotype in CRPC. Custom Agilent 44K whole human genome expression oligonucleotide microarrays were used to profile 24 LuCaP PCa xenograft lines and 71 CRPC metastases from 47 patients. RNA was amplified prior to hybridization against a common reference pool of prostate tumor cell lines.

Solute carrier family 12 member 2 as a proteomic and histological biomarker of dysplasia and neoplasia in ulcerative colitis

Project description:Ulcerative colitis (UC) patients have a greater risk of developing colorectal cancer through inflammation-dysplasia-carcinoma sequence of transformation. The histopathological diagnosis of dysplasia is therefore of critical clinical relevance, but dysplasia may be difficult to distinguish from inflammatory changes. A proteomic pilot study on 5 UC colorectal dysplastic patients highlighted proteins differentially distributed between paired dysplastic, inflammatory and normal tissues. The best candidate marker was selected and immunohistochemistry confirmation was performed on AOM/DSS mouse model lesions, 37 UC dysplasia, 14 UC cancers, 23 longstanding UC, 35 sporadic conventional adenomas, 57 sporadic serrated lesions and 82 sporadic colorectal cancers. Differential proteomics found 11 proteins significantly more abundant in dysplasia compared to inflammation, including Solute carrier family 12 member 2 (SLC12A2) which was confidently identified with 8 specific peptides and was below the limit of quantitation in both inflammatory and normal colon. SLC12A2 immunohistochemical analysis confirmed the discrimination of preneoplastic and neoplastic lesions from inflammatory lesions in mice, UC and in sporadic contexts. A specific SLC12A2 staining pattern termed “loss of gradient” reached 89% sensitivity, 95% specificity and 92% accuracy for UC-dysplasia diagnosis together with an inter-observer agreement of 95.24% (multirater κfree of 0.90; IC95%: 0.78 – 1.00). Such discrimination could not be obtained by Ki67 staining. This specific pattern was also associated with sporadic colorectal adenomas and cancers. We found a specific SLC12A2 immunohistochemical staining pattern in precancerous and cancerous colonic UC-lesions which could be helpful for diagnosing dysplasia and cancer in UC and non-UC patients.

HSPA6 is an ulcerative colitis susceptibility factor that is induced by cigarette smoke and protects intestinal epithelial cells by stabilizing anti-apoptotic Bcl-XL

Project description:Objective: Cigarette smoking ameliorates ulcerative colitis (UC) and aggravates Crohn’s disease (CD). Cigarette smoke suppresses inflammation-induced apoptosis in intestinal epithelial cells (DLD-1), which may explain its protective effect in UC. Here, we performed transcriptome profiling of cigarette smoke extract (CSE)-exposed DLD-1 and Jurkat cells (T-lymphocytes) and related this to UC susceptibility genes with protective functions in the intestinal epithelium. Design: CSE-regulated genes in DLD-1 and Jurkat cells were identified by Illumina microarrays and compared to genes in UC susceptibility loci. Colon biopsies were analyzed by immunohistochemistry for cell-specific expression of HSPA6. CSE-induced gene expression was analyzed by Q-PCR, Western blotting and immunofluorescence microscopy. Protein (HSPA6/Bcl-XL) interactions were analyzed by immunoprecipitation. Results: CSE changed the expression of 536 and 2,560 genes in DLD-1 and Jurkat cells, respectively. The “response to unfolded protein” was one of the most significantly affected gene sets with prominent induction (20.3-fold) of heat shock protein A6 (HSPA6). Six CSE-induced genes in DLD-1 cells were located in UC-susceptibility loci, including HSPA6 (rs1801274). HSPA6 is highly expressed in the human colonic epithelium. CSE caused a dose-dependent strong (>100-fold at 30% CSE for 6 hours), but transient induction of HSPA6 mRNA and protein in DLD-1 cells. HSPA6 co-immune precipitated with anti-apoptotic Bcl-XL, protein levels of which were increased while mRNA levels were unchanged. Conclusion: HSPA6 is a cigarette smoke-induced UC-susceptibility gene. The HSPA6 risk locus is associated with decreased HSPA6 expression. HSPA6 provides epithelial protection by stabilizing anti-apoptotic Bcl-XL, thereby contributing to the beneficial effect of cigarette smoking in UC.
