Epigenetic plasticity cooperates with emergent cell-cell interactions to drive neoplastic tissue remodeling in the pancreas [ATAC-seq]


ABSTRACT: In pancreatic cancer, select cells within a homogeneous epithelium drive tumorigenesis in response to an environmental trigger, suggesting key uncharacterized roles for epigenetics and cellular context. To investigate epigenetic plasticity in early tumorigenesis, we performed single-cell transcriptional and chromatin accessibility sequencing of Kras-mutant pancreatic cancer models, encompassing initiation to malignant stages and wild-type tissue. Our analysis identifies a few progenitor states that correspond to known cells-of-origin, exhibit the greatest measured epigenetic plasticity, and are primed for diverse neoplastic fates. Plasticity is strongly associated with accessibility near receptor and ligand loci. We delineated robust communication modules and a feedback loop between IL33-expressing epithelial and immune cells with broad tissue impacts, which we confirmed by genetic perturbation in mice. Our results promise to nominate early interception strategies for this lethal cancer.
