Revealing role of epigenetic modifers and DNA oxidation in cell‐autonomous regulation of Cancer stem cells

ABSTRACT: Breast cancer cells (BCCs) can remain undetected for decades in dormancy. These quiescent cells are similar to cancer stem cells (CSCs); hence their ability to initiate tertiary metastasis. Dormancy can be regulated by components of the tissue microenvironment such as bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that release exosomes to dediferentiate BCCs into CSCs. The exosomes cargo includes histone 3, lysine 4 (H3K4) methyltransferases - KMT2B and KMT2D. A less studied mechanism of CSC maintenance is the process of cell-autonomous regulation, leading us to examine the roles for KMT2B and KMT2D in sustaining CSCs, and their potential as drug targets.

Global Gene Expression Analyses of Three BCC Subsets, Based on the Relative Level of Oct4A

Project description:Despite education and aggressive treatment, breast cancer (BC) remains a clinical problem. BC cells (BCCs) can migrate early to metastatic sites where they may exist in cellular dormancy for decades. Presently, there are no consensus markers for cancer stem cells (CSCs) that are involved in tumor initiation and progression, and drug resistance. The current designation of CSCs might comprise similar tumor initiating cells, but at different developmental phase. In order to understand these differences, we developed a working hierarchy of BCCs. We initiated the studies in which three BCC subsets were selected based on the relative expressions of the stem cell-linked genes, Octamer4A (Oct4A). The sorted BCCs were subjected to array analyses using Affymetrix gene chip. Hierarchical clustering indicated distinct gene expression among the three subsets. Differential gene expressions of membrane proteins validated three novel genes, TMEM-98, GPR64 and FAT4. These three genes, in combination of known markers for CSCs, CD44, CD24, aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (ALDH1) and Oct4A, were used to stratify BCCs led to a working hierarchy of BCCs. The validity of the hierarchical BCCs was applied to blood samples from patients, during relapse, and before and after treatment. These studies resulted in the patients grouped with distinct BCCs in the circulation. The relevance of the latter findings are discussed with regards to prediction of treatment response and time of BC relapse. The findings require a larger cohort of patients in a prospective multi-center study. The stratification could be important to understand treatment response, strategies for alternative approaches, and an understanding of the interaction between particular BCC subsets and the tissue microenvironment.

Mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes stimulate cycling quiescence and early breast cancer dormancy in bone marrow

Project description:Transwell cultures were established in 6-well plates with 0.4 micron inserts. Equal amounts (6x10e4) of BCCs and MSCs were added to the outer and inner wells, respectively, in DMEM with 10% exosome-free FCS. After 24 h, the inner wells with BCCs were discarded. The MSCs were washed with PBS and then incubated with DMEM with 2% exosome-free FCS. At 48 h, exosomes were isolated from the MSC media. The exosomes from triplicate wells were added to duplicate naÃ¯ve BCCs at 2.5x105/well of 6-well plates. qPCR miRNA expression profiling. RNA from MSCs-Exosomes were analyzed as indicated in the summary. The PCR was run on the 7300 Real-Time PCR System using the following thermal-cycling parameters: 94 0C for 15 min, 40 cycles at 940 C for 10 sec, 550 C for 30s, 700 C for 30 sec followed by a melting curve analysis.

Adipose MSC suppress breast cancer progression, metastasis and inhibit EMT pathways via exosomal-miRNAs following co-culture interaction

Project description:Introduction: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are commonly known to influence the progression of cancer due to their ability to migrate to the tumor microenvironment and interact with cancer cells. Exosomes have been found secreted by most cell types and have been shown to act as cargo carrying biomolecules including microRNA (miRNAs). Thus, understanding interaction between MSCs and cancer cells via exosomal miRNAs is crucial in determining the therapeutic role of MSC in treating breast cancer cells and relapse. Methods: Exosomes were harvested from the medium of indirect co-culture of MCF7-luminal and MDA-MB-231-basal breast cancer cells (BCCs) subtypes with adipose MSCs and profiled for miRNAs using next-generation sequencing. Results: The interaction resulted in the changes of exosomal miRNAs profiles that modulate essential signalling pathways and cell cycle arrest into dormancy via inhibition of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). The maintenance and induction of epithelial features in MCF7 and MDA cells have led to a positive correlation with the reduction of proliferation and metastasis as well as increased drug resistance. Overall, adipose MSCs mediated delivery of consensus miRNAs particularly miR-200 family in MCF7, miR-146a in MDA and miR-941 in both BCCs subtypes via exosomes.

Natural killer cell regulation of breast cancer stem cells mediates metastatic dormancy

Project description:Breast cancer patients with estrogen receptor positive tumors face a constant risk of disease recurrence for the remainder of their lives. Dormant tumor cells residing in tissues such as the bone marrow may generate clinically significant metastases many years after initial diagnosis. Previous studies suggest that dormant cells display “stem like” properties (CSCs), which may be regulated by the immune system. Although many studies have examined tumor cell intrinsic characteristics of dormancy, the role of the immune system in controlling dormancy and its escape is not well understood. This scientific gap is due, in part, to a lack of immunocompetent mouse models of breast cancer dormancy with many studies involving human xenografts in immunodeficient mice. To overcome this limitation, we studied dormancy in immunocompetent, syngeneic mouse breast cancer models. We find that PyMT, Met-1 and D2.0R cell lines contain CSCs that display both short- and long-term metastatic dormancy in vivo, which is dependent on the host immune system. Natural killer cells were key for the metastatic dormancy phenotype observed for D2.0R and the role of NK cells in regulating CSCs was further investigated. Quiescent D2.0R CSC are resistant to NK cytotoxicity, while proliferative D2.0R CSC were sensitive to NK cytotoxicity both in vitro and in vivo. This resistance was mediated, in part, by the expression of Bach1 and Sox2 transcription factors. NK killing was enhanced by the STING agonist MSA-2. Collectively, our findings demonstrate the important role of immune regulation of breast tumor dormancy and highlight the importance of utilizing immunocompetent models to study this phenomenon.

The Marrow Niche Controls The Cancer Stem Cell Phenotype Of Disseminated Prostate Cancer

Project description:Dissemination of cancer stem cells (CSCs) serves as the basis of metastasis. Recently, we demonstrated that circulating prostate cancer (PCa) targets the hematopoietic stem cell (HSCs) ‘niche’ in marrow during dissemination. Once in the niche, disseminated tumor cells (DTCs) may remain dormant for extended periods. As the major function of the HSC niche is to maintain stem cell functions, we hypothesized that the niche regulates CSC activities of DTCs. We show that DTCs recovered from marrow were significantly enriched for a CSC phenotype. Critically, the conversion of DTCs to CSCs is regulated by niche. The data demonstrate that the niche plays a significant role in maintaining tumor-initiating PCa in marrow and suggests a functional relationship between CSCs and dormancy. Understanding how the marrow niche regulates the conversion of DTCs to CSCs is critical for the development of therapeutics specifically targeting skeletal bone metastasis and dormancy. We used microarrays to determine the global changes in gene expression underlying the significant roles of the marrow niche in activating cancer stem-like cell programs of prostate caner.

Comparative miRNome analysis of bovine sera and exosomes revealing their distinct advantages in studying cattle health

Project description:Recently, extra-cellular components, such as serum and exosome, attract more and more attention as biomarker candidates for mammalian health. However, the contribution of different blood components to the signature of respective microRNAs (miRNAs) remains unknown, especially in cattle. In this study we aimed to investigate the miRNAs from bovine sera and exosomes, and to provide insights into their future applications. Blood collected from four healthy dairy cows were used for this study. The sera and exosomes RNAs were extracted using two commonly used commercial kits (Norgen and Invitrogen total RNA isolation kit), respectively. Sera showed higher complexity of miRNome consisting of 328 miRNAs, while significantly less miRNAs (260, p = 0.001) were detected in exosomes. The profile of total detected miRNAs in sera and exosomes was different, while exosomes represented about 78% of total miRNAs expressed in sera, suggesting that exosomes are the major miRNAs carriers in bovine sera. There were 24 and 3 miRNAs (RPM > 5) that exclusively expressed in sera and exosomes, respectively. In addition, 12 miRNAs were differentially expressed between sera and exosomes (FDR < 0.05). Moreover, functional analysis showed that uniquely and highly expressed miRNAs in sera targeted functions of diseases and disorders, while the functions of those in exosomes were enriched in tissue development and lipid metabolism. Our results provide evidence that bovine sera and exosomes miRNomes are different with regarding to miRNA numbers, types and expressions. Based on their distinct profiles, miRNAs from sera and exosomes may reflect different aspects of physiological and pathological conditions in cattle. The functional analysis suggest that sera may be preferable for the purpose of detecting inflammation in cattle, while exosomes may be a better choice for monitoring the status of muscle development and lipid metabolism.

Effect of estradiol (E2) exposure and KMT2B knockdown on gene expression in MCF-7 cells

Project description:MCF-7 is an estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer cell line. This experiment is designed to study (1) the effect of estradiol (E2) exposure and (2) lysine methyltransferase 2B (KMT2B) knockdown in MCF-7 cells. Cells were grown for 72 hours prior to treatment with vehicle or 10 nM E2 for 4 and 24 hours. Additionally, to assess the effect of KMT2B knockdown, MCF-7 cells were transfected with KMT2B targeting siRNA or scrambled control siRNA in the absence or presence of E2. RNA were isolated using Trizol and hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 array.
