Next Generation Sequencing of H292 cell line cultured with CAFs CM or SL-CAFs CM

ABSTRACT: Cancer cell radioresistance is the primary cause of the decreased curability of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) observed in patients receiving definitive radiotherapy (RT). Following RT, a set of microenvironmental stress responses is triggered, including cell senescence. However, cell senescence is often ignored in designing effective strategies to resolve cancer cell radioresistance. Herein, we identified the senescence-like characteristics of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) post RT and clarified the formidable ability of senescence-like CAFs in promoting NSCLC cells proliferation and radioresistance through the JAK/STAT pathway. Specific induction of senescence-like CAFs apoptosis using FOXO4-DRI, a FOXO4-p53 interfering peptide, resulted in remarkable effects on radiosensitizing NSCLC cells in vitro and in vivo. In addition, our study also discovered the obvious therapeutic effect of FOXO4-DRI on alleviating radiation-induced pulmonary fibrosis (RIPF) by targeting senescence-like fibroblasts in vivo. In conclusion, by targeting senescence, we offer a new strategy which simultaneously decreases radioresistance of NSCLC and the incidence of RIPF.

Project description:Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are acknowledged key determinants in the progression of cancer and thereby represent important targets for cancer therapies. Given the increase attention that ablative radiotherapy is gaining in the clinics, in this study we have aimed at identifying the transcriptional responses occurring in primary CAFs exposed to high-dose irradiation. Established primary cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) obtained from non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patient material were irradiated with a single dose of 18 Gy and total RNA was isolated 24 hrs after treatment. Radiation-induced transcriptional alterations were investigated by gene expression analysis using genome-wide microarrays. Obtained results were verified by qRT-PCR of relevant genes. To confirm the data achieved by microarrays, diverse functional assays were performed including DNA damage response foci assay, measurements of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by flow cytometry and senescence-associated beta-galactosidase assays were applied. Irradiation resulted in differential expression of 680 genes of which 553 were up- and 127 down-regulated. 153 genes were differentially expressed with a fold-change greater than 1 and an adjusted p-value less than 0.05 across different comparisons (non-irradiated vs. irradiated). Expression patterns revealed profound changes in biological functions and processes involved in DNA repair, apoptosis, p53 pathway, autophagy, senescence, ROS production and immune response. Conclusions: CAFs display pro- and anti-tumorigenic effects after having received a single high-dose radiation. The effects might have an impact on the tumor microenvironment in respect to tumor growth and metastasis. The complexity of the observed differential gene expression patterns and implicative biological effects are interesting future objectives for further elucidation. Established primary cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) obtained from non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patient material were irradiated with a single dose of 18 Gy and total RNA was isolated 24 hrs after treatment.
