Orthotopic CRC organoid transplantation in mice: A novel model for the study and treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis [Bulk RNA-Seq]

ABSTRACT: Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) originating from colorectal cancer (CRC) is associated with a poor prognosis and rapid disease progression. Metastasis is the major cause of death in patients with CRC whereas primary locoregionally circumscribed tumors are mostly curable. Due to the lack of appropriate and realistic mouse models for metastasis of CRC until recently, the research about metastasis of these tumors and possible therapeutic options is still in its infancy. With the establishment of murine CRC tumor organoids, mouse models were established which realistically mimic the process of tumor cell metastasis to the liver and the lung. However, to date no appropriate model for PC is described. Here, we establish a realistic model for peritoneal metastasis of colorectal cancer upon surgical transplantation of tumor organoids into the cecum wall. This mouse model for PC recapitulates human PC which makes it an ideal model for research of the biology of metastasis of colorectal cancer to the peritoneal cavity and for its usage for preclinical drug screening as well as for the evaluation of new therapeutic approaches which are highly needed in clinical reality.

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most lethal cancers when it progresses to the advanced/metastatic stage. Treatment options for refractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) are limited. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop effective treatment methods for metastatic colorectal cancer. In this study, we screened a library of small molecules for inhibitors of CRC recurrence using CRC cell lines and patient-derived organoids (PDOs) from metastatic, heavily pretreated CRC. The in vivo efficacy of LS-1-2 was evaluated in the HCT116 and the resistant HCT8 cell lines, patient-derived xenografts(PDXs) including refractory mCRC, and a liver metastasis mouse model. Biotin pull-down and liquid chromatography tandem-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) were performed to identify proteins that interact with LS-1-2. The genome-wide gene expression and quantitative phosphoproteomic analyses were performed to determine the signaling pathway involved in LS-1-2. Molecular docking, molecular dynamics analysis and cellular thermal shift assays were used to predict and validate the binding sites of LS-1-2 on non-muscle Myosin IIA (NMHC IIA). Our results showed that LS-1-2 exhibited broad antiproliferative effects on a series of CRC cell lines and PDOs. The in vivo anti-tumor efficacy of LS-1-2 was demonstrated across cell line- and patient-derived xenografts and in the liver metastatic CRC model. NMHC IIA was identified as a direct target of LS-1-2, and LS-1-2 competitively inhibited the phosphorylation of NMHC IIA at S1943 and S1714 by CK2. NMHC IIA phosphorylation promoted CRC cell proliferation and invasion, which was reduced by LS-1-2. NMHC IIA phosphorylation-mediated YAP activity induced activation of AKT and inactivation of FOXO3a and was suppressed by LS-1-2. In conclusion, our findings suggest that NMHC IIA phosphorylation can be used as a potential molecular target in CRC metastasis, and that targeting NMHC IIA phosphorylation by LS-1-2 may be a promising strategy for the treatment and prevention of CRC metastasis.
