PGCC development and recovery within a prostate cancer cell population

ABSTRACT: Polyploid Giant Cancer Cells (PGCC) are increasingly being studied for their role in cancer recurrence and mortality. PGCC arise from cancer cells in response to stress such as radiation, chemotherapy, or hypoxia. PGCC remain viable but do not divide by mitosis. However, upon cessation of stress, PGCC are capable of progeny formation via primitive, amitotic mechanisms akin to budding or bursting. In this study, the initial PGCC offspring are referred to as “early progeny”. As early progeny cells resume proliferation they generate “late progeny”. This study assessed the transcriptional changes that occur as parental cancer cells progress to PGCC in response to radiation stress, escape as early progeny, and resume proliferation.

Polyploid Giant Cancer Cells are dependent on cholesterol for progeny formation through amitotic division

Project description:Polyploid Giant Cancer Cells (PGCC) are increasingly being studied for their role in cancer recurrence and mortality. These cells are induced in bulk cancer cell populations when under stress such as hypoxia or treatment stress (i.e. chemotherapy or radiation). PGCC utilize temporary senescence achieved via a dedifferentiation pathway to survive transient stresses, providing a seed population for later regrowth. Our previous work demonstrated a dependence on the lysosomal enzyme acid ceramidase (ASAH1) in these cells, such that they are unable to perform division without ASAH1. The pro-drug LCL521 is lysosomally targeted, fully inhibits ASAH1 activity within 5 hours, and ablates the ability of PGCC to generate progeny while permitting mitotic cancer cells to proliferate normally. We used an RNASeq approach to compare the responses of parental PPC1 prostate cancer cells and their radiation-induced PGCC counterparts to 5 hours of LCL-521 treatment. RNASeq confirmed that no major changes were triggered in parental PPC1 cells while PGCC appeared to respond as if they had undergone cholesterol depletion.

Single-Cell Morphological and Transcriptome Analysis Unveil Inhibitors of Polyploid Giant Breast Cancer Cells In Vitro

Project description:Considerable evidence suggests that breast cancer therapeutic resistance and relapse can be driven by polyploid giant cancer cells (PGCCs). The number of PGCCs increases with the stages of disease and therapeutic stress. Given the importance of PGCCs, it remains challenging to eradicate them. To discover effective anti-PGCC compounds, there is an unmet need to rapidly distinguish compounds that kill non-PGCCs, PGCCs, or both. Here, we establish a single-cell morphological analysis pipeline with a high throughput and great precision to characterize dynamics of individual cells. In this manner, we screen a library to identify promising compounds that inhibit all cancer cells or only PGCCs (e.g., regulators of HDAC, proteasome, and ferroptosis). Additionally, we perform scRNA-Seq to reveal altered cell cycle, metabolism, and ferroptosis sensitivity in breast PGCCs. The combination of single-cell morphological and molecular investigation reveals promising anti-PGCC strategies for breast cancer treatment and other malignancies.

Targeting polyploid giant cancer cells potentiates a therapeutic response and overcomes resistance to PARP inhibitors in ovarian cancer

Project description:PARP inhibitor olaparib induces the formation of polyploid giant cancer cells (PGCCs) in ovarian and breast cancer cell lines, human high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC)–derived organoids, and HGSC patient-derived xenografts (PDXs). Time-lapse tracking of ovarian cancer cells revealed that PGCCs primarily developed from endoreplication of cancer cells after exposure to sublethal concentrations of olaparib. PGCCs exhibited features of senescent cells but, after olaparib withdrawal, could escape senescence via restitutional multipolar endomitosis and other modes of cell division to generate mitotically competent resistant daughter cells. The contraceptive drug mifepristone blocked PGCC formation and daughter cell production. Mifepristone/olaparib combination therapy substantially reduced tumor growth in PDX models without previous olaparib exposure, while mifepristone alone decreased tumor growth in PDX models with acquired olaparib resistance. Thus, targeting PGCCs may represent a promising approach to potentiate the therapeutic response to PARPi and overcome PARPi-induced resistance.

IL-6 promotes drug resistance through formation of polyploid giant cancer cells and stromal fibroblast reprogramming

Project description:To understand the role of polyploid giant cancer cells (PGCCs) in drug resistance and disease relapse, we examined the mRNA expression profile of PGCCs in ovarian cancer cells. An acute activation of IL-6 dominated senescence associated secretory phenotype lasted 2-3 weeks and declined during the termination phase of polyploidy. IL-6 activates embryonic stemness during the initiation of PGCCs and can reprogram normal fibroblasts into cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) via increased collagen synthesis, activation of VEGF expression, and enrichment of CAFs and the GPR77+/CD10+ fibroblast subpopulation. Blocking the IL-6 feedback loop with tocilizumab or apigenin prevented PGCC formation, attenuated embryonic stemness and the CAF phenotype, and inhibited tumor growth in a patient-derived xenograft high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma model. Thus, IL-6 derived by PGCCs is capable of reprogramming both cancer and stromal cells and contributes to the evolution and remodeling of cancer. Targeting IL-6 in PGCCs may represent a novel approach to combating drug resistance

Gene expression changes in response to aging compared to heat stress, oxidative stress and ionizing radiation in Drosophila melanogaster

Project description:Gene expression changes in response to aging, hyperoxia, hydrogen peroxide, ionizing radiation, and heat stress were compared using microarrays. While aging shared features with each stress, aging was more similar to the stresses most associated with oxidative stress (hydrogen peroxide, hyperoxia, ionizing radiation) than to heat stress. Aging is associated with down-regulation of numerous mitochondrial genes, including electron-transport-chain (ETC) genes and mitochondrial metabolism genes, and a sub-set of these changes was also observed upon hydrogen peroxide stress and ionizing radiation stress. Aging shared the largest number of gene expression changes with hyperoxia. The extensive down-regulation of mitochondrial and ETC genes during aging is consistent with an aging-associated failure in mitochondrial maintenance, which may underlie the oxidative stress-like and proteotoxic stress-like responses observed during aging. Thirty five sample of RNA including Stress Controls (4 replicates), Heat Stress (3 replicates), Ionizing Radiation (4 replicates), Sugar (4 replicates), Hydrogen Peroxide (4 replicates), Young Controls (6 replicates) , Hyperoxia (6 replicates) and Old (4 replicates) adult Drosophila were analysed by Affymetrix microarrays. Stress Controls were used as controls for Heat Stress, Ionizing Radiation, Sugar and Hydrogen Peroxide samples. Young Controls were used as controls for Hyperoxia and Old samples. All flies were male progeny of a cross between Oregon-R wildtype and transgenic strain w[1118];P{w+ rtTA}(3)[E2]/ TM3. Flies lacking the balancer but bearing the transgene were used.

Cancer cells enter an adaptive persistence to survive radiotherapy and repopulate tumor 1

Project description:Tumor cell repopulation represents a critical factor in the failure of radiotherapy. Analogous to the concept of “drug-tolerant persistence (DTP)” in stress of chemo- or targeted therapy, here, we show that cancer cells enter a “radiation-tolerant persistence (RTP)” to survive radiotherapy and repopulate tumor. These RTP cells exhibit a distinct phenotype characterized by enlargement of cell sizes and nucleus, complex karyotype, cell cycle arrest and engagement of quiescence. A fraction of RTPs unexpectedly give birth to mitotic-competent progeny cells via a viral budding-mimicking cell division. To gain insight into the molecular mechanisms how RTPs generating progenies and repopulating tumors, we applied single cell SMART RNA-sequencing and 10x RNA-sequencing to different status of human colorectal cancer cells HCT116 before and exposed to irradiation. For the first time, we profiled two transitional transcriptional waves throughout budding process and characterized two gene panels associated with budding of RTPs, illustrating the therapeutic potential for blocking tumor repopulation after radiation.

Regulation of stochastic gene bursting by chromatin-independent acetylation

Project description:Stochastic transcriptional bursting is now recognized as a universal property of gene expression. While different genes exhibit distinct bursting patterns, the molecular basis for differences in bursting are largely unknown. We have developed and applied a high-throughput-imaging based screening strategy to identify cellular factors and mechanisms that determine the bursting behavior of human genes. Focusing on epigenetic regulators, we find that global acetylation is the strongest acute modulator of burst frequency, size and heterogeneity of bursting. Acetylation similarly affected the Off-time but On-time changes were gene-specific. These effects were not strongly linked to promoter acetylation, which did not correlate with bursting properties and forced promoter acetylation altered bursting for only some genes. Instead, we identified acetylation of the Integrator complex as a key determinant of gene bursting with elevated Integrator acetylation leading to faster bursting. Taken together our results suggest a dominant role of non-histone proteins in determining gene bursting properties and they identify non-epigenetic acetylation of a transcription cofactor as an allosteric modulator of bursting via a pause-release related bursting checkpoint
