A Developmentally Prometastatic Niche in Neonatal Liver to Hepatoblastoma mediated by Cxcl1/Cxcr2 Axis

ABSTRACT: We find that various HB cell lines including HepG2 cells are consistently and considerably more tumorigenic and metastatic in the P5Tx model than in the P60Tx models. Sc-RNAseq of the P5Tx and P60Tx HepG2 models reveals that the P5Tx tumor is more hypoxic and has more activated hepatic stellate cells (aHSCs) in the tumor-surrounding liver which express significantly higher levels of Cxcl1 than those from the P60Tx model. We find these differences are developmentally present in the normal P5 and P60 liver. We show that Cxcl1/Cxcr2 axis mediates HB cell migration and is critical to HB cell survival under hypoxia. Treating HepG2 P60Tx model with recombinant CXCL1 protein induces multifocal intrahepatic and pulmonary metastasis and CXCR2 knockout in HepG2 cells abolishes their metastatic potential in the P5Tx model. Lastly, we show that in metastatic HB patient tumors there is a similar larger population of aHSCs in the tumor-surrounding liver than the localized tumors, and tumor hypoxia is significantly associated with HB patient prognosis.

A Developmentally Prometastatic Niche in Neonatal Liver to Hepatoblastoma mediated by Cxcl1/Cxcr2 Axis

Project description:Hepatoblastoma (HB) is the most common pediatric liver cancer. Its exclusive occurrence in very young children leads us to investigating whether the immature liver provides a protumorigenic niche to HB development. We employed the single-cell RNA-sequencing (sc-RNAseq) to comprehensively profile the HB tumors and their microenvironment in the orthotopic transplantation models established in postnatal day 5 and 60. We demonstrated that the neonatal liver provides a prometastatic niche to HB development via Cxcl1/Cxcr2 axis-mediated HB-aHSC interaction.

GREB1, a novel target of Wnt signaling, promotes development of hepatoblastoma by suppressing TGFβ signaling

Project description:The β-catenin mutation is frequently observed in hepatoblastoma (HB), but the underlying mechanism by which Wnt/β-catenin signaling induces HB tumor formation is unknown. We found that expression of growth regulation by estrogen in breast cancer 1 (GREB1) depends on Wnt/β-catenin signaling in HB patients. GREB1 was localized to the nucleus where it bound Smad2/3 in a competitive manner with p300 and inhibited TGFβ signaling, thereby promoting HepG2 HB cell proliferation. Forced expression of β-catenin, YAP, and c-Met induced HB-like mouse liver tumor (BYM mice), with an increase in GREB1 expression and HB markers. Depletion of GREB1 strongly suppressed marker gene expression and HB-like liver tumorigenesis, and instead enhanced TGFβ signaling in BYM mice. Furthermore, antisense oligonucleotides for GREB1 suppressed the formation of HepG2 cell-induced tumors and HB-like tumors in vivo. We propose that GREB1 is a novel target molecule of Wnt/β-catenin signaling and required for HB progression.

A microRNA cluster in the DLK1-DIO3 imprinted region on chromosome 14q32.2 in hepatoblastoma

Project description:Using array-based expression analysis on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues, we aimed to identify miRNA signatures that can discriminate between lung metastatic tumors, primary tumors (fetal and embryonal subtypes) and nontumorous surrounding livers. A large cluster of microRNAs and snoRNAs located within the 14q32.2 DLK1-DIO3 region showed a strikingly upregulated expression pattern in HB tumors, especially metastatic tumors, compared to normal liver tissues.

KDM6A loss recruits tumor-associated neutrophils and promotes neutrophil extracellular trap formation via the CXCL1-CXCR2 axis in pancreatic cancer

Project description:Lysine (K)-specific demethylase 6A (KDM6A) is a frequently mutated tumor suppressor gene in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). However, how KDM6A loss impacts PDAC tumor immune microenvironment is not known. Tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs) and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in the tumor microenvironment contribute to PDAC progression. This study used genetically engineered pancreas-specific Kdm6a-knockout PDAC mouse model and human PDAC tissue samples to demonstrate that KDM6A loss correlates with increased TANs and NETs formation. Genome-wide Bru-seq analysis showed that the expression of many chemotactic cytokines, especially CXC motif chemokine ligand 1 (CXCL1), were upregulated in KDM6A-knockout PDAC cells. We confirmed that KDM6A-deficient PDAC cells secreted higher levels of CXCL1 protein, which in turn recruits neutrophils. Furthermore, the CXCL1 neutralizing antibody blocked the chemotactic and NETs-promoting property of KDM6A-deficient PDAC cells and tumor growth in a syngeneic orthotopic xenograft mouse model, confirming that CXCL1 was the main mediator of chemotaxis and PDAC growth in this model. These findings shed light on how KDM6A regulates tumor immune microenvironment and PDAC progression and suggest that the CXCL1-CXCR2 axis may be a candidate target for treating PDACs with KDM6A loss.

Melanoma cells repress Desmoglein 1 in keratinocytes to promote tumor cell migration

Project description:Melanoma is an aggressive cancer typically arising from transformation of melanocytes residing in the basal layer of the epidermis, where they are in direct contact with surrounding keratinocytes. The role of keratinocytes in shaping the melanoma tumor microenvironment remains understudied. We previously showed that temporary loss of the keratinocyte-specific cadherin, Desmoglein 1 (Dsg1) controls paracrine signaling between normal melanocytes and keratinocytes to stimulate the protective tanning response. Here, we provide evidence that melanoma cells hijack this intercellular communication by secreting factors that keep Dsg1 expression low in surrounding keratinocytes, which in turn generate their own paracrine signals that enhance melanoma spread through CXCL1/CXCR2 signaling. Evidence suggests a model whereby paracrine signaling from melanoma cells increases levels of the transcriptional repressor Slug, and consequently decreases expression of the Dsg1 transcriptional activator Grhl1. Together, these data support the idea that paracrine crosstalk between melanoma cells and keratinocytes resulting in chronic keratinocyte Dsg1 reduction contributes to melanoma cell movement associated with tumor progression.

TNFα-induced alterations in stromal progenitors in CML BM result in enhanced LSC growth via CXCL1-CXCR2 signaling

Project description:Leukemia stem cells (LSC) are not eradicated in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients responding to tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment. Bone marrow (BM) mesenchymal niches play an essential role in hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) maintenance. Here, we examined leukemia-induced alterations in mesenchymal progenitor populations using a murine CML model. 6C3+ stroma-forming progenitors were increased in CML BM, and demonstrated enhanced LSC but reduced HSC support compared to their normal counterparts. CML 6C3 cells showed enhanced TNFa-related gene signatures, and upregulated CXCL1 expression. TNFα signaling contributed to expansion and increased CXCL1 expression by 6C3 cells in CML BM. The CXCL1 receptor CXCR2 was upregulated in in LSC, and CXCR2 inhibition significantly reduced LSC growth both in vitro and in vivo. In conclusion, TNFα-induced alterations in stromal progenitors in CML BM result in enhanced CML LSC growth via CXCL1-CXCR2 signaling. Targeting this axis represents a novel therapeutic strategy to inhibit BM niche-protected LSC.

Murine Bone Marrow Stromal Cell Response to Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor

Project description:Neutrophil homeostasis is maintained, in part, by the regulated release of neutrophils from the bone marrow. Constitutive expression of the chemokine CXCL12 by bone marrow stromal cells provides a key retention signal for neutrophils in the bone marrow through activation of its receptor CXCR4. Herein, we show that the ELR chemokines CXCL1 and CXCL2 are constitutively expressed by bone marrow endothelial cells and osteoblasts, and CXCL2 expression is induced in endothelial cells during granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)-induced neutrophil mobilization. Neutrophils lacking CXCR2, the receptor for CXCL1 and CXCL2, are preferentially retained in the bone marrow, reproducing a myelokathexis phenotype. Transient disruption of CXCR4 failed to mobilize CXCR2 neutrophils. However, doubly deficient neutrophils (CXCR2-/- CXCR4-/-) displayed constitutive mobilization, showing that CXCR4 plays a dominant role. Collectively, these data suggest that CXCR2 signaling is a second chemokine axis that interacts antagonistically with CXCR4 to regulate neutrophil release from the bone marrow. We used gene expression microarrays to determine the changes in osteoblasts and bone marrow endothelial cells after G-CSF treatment. 3 untreated and G-CSF-treated osteoblast samples and 4 untreated and G-CSF-treated endothelial samples.

Inhibiting YAP1 in hepatoblastoma drives therapeutic differentiation of tumor cells to functional hepatocyte-like cells

Project description:Despite advances in surgical care and chemotherapeutic regimens, the five-year survival rate for Stage IV Hepatoblastoma (HB), the predominant pediatric liver tumor, remains at 27%. YAP1 and β-Catenin co-activation occur in 80% of children’s HB; however, a lack of conditional genetic models precludes exploration of tumor maintenance and therapeutic targets. Thus, the clinical need for a targeted therapy remains unmet. Given the predominance of YAP1 and β-catenin activation in children’s tumors, we sought to evaluate YAP1 as a therapeutic target in HB. We engineered the first conditional murine model of HB using hydrodynamic injection to deliver transposon plasmids encoding inducible YAP1S127A, constitutive β-CateninDelN90, and a luciferase reporter to murine liver. Tumor regression was evaluated using in vivo bioluminescent imaging, and tumor landscape characterized using RNA sequencing, ATAC sequencing and DNA foot-printing. Here we show that YAP1 inhibition mediates >90% tumor regression with survival for 230+ days in mice. Mechanistically, YAP1 inhibition induces a cell fate switch driving therapeutic differentiation of HB tumors into Ki-67 negative “hbHep cells” with hepatocyte-like morphology and mature hepatocyte gene expression.
